The older the horse the more sensible?

Dougies only 14, but boy s his stupid sometimes :rolleyes: For example last night, the YO's daugther went to swtich on the arena lights for us, and the big german shepard dog was waiting for her, dougie was really scared of the dog just sitting there, and whn he moved dougie shot off, haha silly hoss!!
 
My lad is 28, 29 soon and is still a loon. Hes perfectly safe,well in my eyes anyway but I have a friend who is a 'hard hunting to hounds' sort of woman, and she went as white as a sheet when I offered to let her ride him.
