I was told by a friend that a fella couldn't take care of his horse and pony anymore. We offered to take them and a week later, here they are. The big guy is an 8yr old Thoroughbred. The pony is half qtr horse and a 3yr old stallion. I guess the guy had big ideas but never worked with the pony. I have a huge bruse on my arm from his bite to prove it. He's lined me up several times and has bit my goat on the back and hurt the cow cause she made an awful noise.
The last two are after his bath...we found a white sock. :roll: They were quite a mess. Looking much better but I have to take another picture of him. He lunges good. I know there is a lot of work to do with both to get them riding material. So far haven't found anything on the internet on how to break or train the pony. I have found quite a bit on the thoroughbred retraining. He must not have been very fast because he came in first place 2 out of 22 times. But he is a real sweetheart and very smart!!! It's been a week today that we got them.
