Sunny my 3yo has yet another big knee! He runs with three mares and he torments them unmercilessly, biting bums and wanting to play. As a result he has had a succession of bumps and bruises, we have just managed to get the last one to heal after 2 months and tonight he is hopping lame again - on the other leg!
At least he allows me to hose him now - he used to think the hose was a spitting snake, now he cuddles me white I do it. Gallons of Aloe Vera I have gone through. Other than wrap him in bubble wrap, I despair!

I knew a youngster a few years ago who very similar to Sunny, he spent his days plagueing the horses he was out with. When he started his education he did settle down alot (though not totally). He is now pretty successful at dressage. So if Sunny manages to survive his youth, who knows what he'll end up achieving :D

I'd hazard a bet that you have quite an intelligent young man on your hands who gets easily bored. Pity he hasn't quite worked out how to get out of the way when his victims get cross.

Hope his leg recovers quickly, at least he's become a willing patient.
