Talk about training a horse to do tricks

[Miriam]

There is a hole in the fence leading from a larger paddock to a smaller one which is now being used for riding. One of the younger girls on my yard asked if she could ride Kito in the paddock along with one of the girls. I said yes she could. Off shew ent happily to get Kito and off she went along with Kate and her Uncle down to the paddock. The next thing I know Dan is asking me if I had heard what Kito had done to her sister Abby. Apparently the little minx had decided to go through the hole in the fence knocking Abby to the ground and then cantered across the paddock tothe top where he settled down to graze :rolleyes:

Luckily Abby is fine and Gorden went to get him and Abby got back on him (Kito that is not Gorden :D ). What a day he has put me through as this morning he would not be caught and tonight he would not be caught untilhe decided along with some of the other horses that he wanted to come up :rolleyes:

Hmmmm teenage years approaching methinks:D Gallie was so evil at 3-4 that I turned him away for a year and did virtually nothing with him. Hopefully Kito will be more co-operative - Gallie always has been a bit dramatic:rolleyes:

Bobby went through a no catching phase..but if it is any consolation he grew out of it of his own accord and is fine now.

Oh no two stroppy teenagers is a bit more than I can manage :eek: Rhi seems to be going through her teenage years too. Having one at home is bad enough :rolleyes:
