[QUOTE="TheBullLady, post: 152982, member: 173"] Fred, It sounds like the young man can handle her, which is a good thing. Perhaps he can figure out what the problem is. The bad thing is even if she (the heifer) finally starts working well for the young man, will she still be good for your daughter? They do know the difference in the handler, and may know that she's gotten away from your daughter before, and revert back to that behaviour. NOTHING is worth risking your daughter getting hurt. And almost as bad is the frustration your daughter will invaribably start feeling if she can't control the heifer. Your daughter showing and having a relatively GOOD experience is what you're shooting for. Personally I would find another heifer. A young girl down the road bought a Simmie heifer from me last year and had similar problems with the heifer. In June I traded her for a young heifer, which I halter broke for her, and is actually the sweetest heifer I've ever broke. The young lady had lost a lot of confidence with the first heifer, and it's taken awhile for her to get it back. [/QUOTE]
