[QUOTE="Horse Guy, post: 343896, member: 5753"] I agree with everyone about never thinking a dull unresponsive horse is gentle. There not gentle, just spoiled. Most will fall a part if you ever ask them to do a job. That is unless they are a total lifeless dude horse with nothing left in them. I disagree about the wet saddle blankets. I have done it both ways. Your never going to get a really good ride out of a horse unless you get them good on the ground. You have to get the horse hooked up to you. Then you need to establish leadership, respect, feel and trust. A professional trainer could get you started in this in a few hours by showing you. To write it out would take hundreds of pages and im not sure you could follow it without seeing it. Honestly I think you would be better off with an easier, better trained horse to get you started. But no matter what you choose to do, you need to get yourself in some kind of a training program. PS Im thinking when you get the colt gelded you might as well have his teeth done at the same time.
