Spooky Arabs one more thought

["RACHAEL WARD" <rward@admin.hilconet.com>]

A little more on spooking, arabs really are different in many ways,
smarter, tougher, (just my opinion) and they have so much more energy.  The
energy thing has gotten me in more trouble with them than anything else, a
famous trainer (who's name I can't remember) once said, "You can longe a QH
or other breed and take some of the starch out of them but if you do that
to an Arab - he'll just get tougher..."  You've gotta find an outlet for
all that energy and intelligence is my point. Or they will find ways to
amuse themselves, i.e. spooking, etc. I had 400 head of cattle to work with
when I had mine and that provided lots of wet blankets and learning
experiences.   Gotta add this, there wasn't a QH in the area that could
have kept up with "my boys" on cattle. :-) 
Again, just my opinion.
