[QUOTE="jaydill, post: 241035, member: 2094"] She is broke to lead and stay tied. She is very gentle.. "bombproof" is what he often calls her. The first day I worked with her I was able to get the halter on her, lead her, get the saddle pad on her, as well as the saddle. I go slower now though, just leading etc to build her trust. I would love to work with her myself. I have been for the most part...a friend of mine who currently barrel races will come out and tell me what I should do, then I work on it til she tells me something new. She hasn't been out in a while, though. I actually have read a little about the breaking process, etc, and thought I might get some good advice here. I am glad she's a pretty calm, gentle horse so it makes things a little easier to work with. One thing I don't like is there's a girl who has got her horse boarded out there. Her horse is an Arabian x QH.. and very spooky. He's sweet, but annoying and often works her nerves while I'm trying to work her. Problem is, if I move him to the adjoining pasture (the gate she is standing in front of in the first picture leads to the other pasture) she gets a little nervous and I don't want to try to work her if she's nervous about what I'm doing as well as what he's doing in the other pasture. I may try to arrange times to go out there the same time as the girl so that she can handle him while I work "my" horse, lol. Thanks for the input. Alan, I will find out if she's appendix. I thought she was appendix when I first saw her (and I don't know that much about horses) but I'm not sure if she is or not. [/QUOTE]
