He is only turned out with one other gelding :/ my yard before he was in with a herd and it really did put him in his place! Come back with some nasty cuts and bruises to show it tho! Lol but the yard itself was awful it's so hard to find a perfect yard :/ I think Iv established I gonna turn him...

ok thanks guys iv taken all this into account,when i was at college and on my stud course they were all broken in at 3 so iv never really thought any different, i guess its just everyones opinions, we will hopefully be out full time again as i do agree 100% he should be out and playing with his...

i value your opinion but dont most people back at 3? he has been turned away until 2 1/2 then iv moved to an active yard ready to break him in and for the past couple of months we havent had turn out so iv been taking him in the school and taking him on walks and in the lunge arena to stretch...

this is unbelievable i have a horse thats 3 next month and i come here to ask for your opinion on turning away and get blasted with sarcastic comments that are completey irrelivant? iv said nothing to offend

why so rude? have you got a problem :S

by games i ment parrelli style like with barrells etc i find its a good way for him to learn respect and spacial awarness as when i bought him in he had no stable manners what so ever lol

he is welsh X TB, i know he is he wont stop growing till about 5-6, iv never done anything detromental to him, we play games, do join up, long rein (in a headcollar on walks) to get him used to traffic and other things, lots of parrelli games, to build a bond really

interesting, see he hasnt got any vices so in that case i dont feel the need too?

few times a week no longer than 20 mins

i have a very clever youngster, he is soon to be 3 and we long rein, lunge, free school, everything and he thrives on work he loves it but as im coming to back him i see people back and then turn away? i feel if i was to do this it would just undo all the hard work i have put in and he would...

so i have a 2 year old welsh x tb who is VERY stubborn. I have managed to sus him out in most ways but the one issue we face is that he will just stand still and wont move. e.g bringing him in from the field he will just stop and wont move not matter what i do, i try shooing behind him tapping...

I dont like riding anything under that height as i am quite big built and look too big in my opinion :/

I done that and it come up at 15hh lol. I think i need to face facts!!

He was sold to make 15.2 but I am getting my doubts.

Ok so I am in a situation with my 2 year old. I brought him as a showjumping/eventing prospect but I really dont think he will make the height. He is currently standing at 14.2hh at 2years. His sire was 14.2hh and dam 15.1hh. I really want something over 15.2hh. I measured his cannon bone and...
