    2.5 year old that wants to play bite!

    Since all you people are use to young horses I thought it may be a good idea to ask you first. I have a 2.5 year old that wants to play bite, when you approach him and when leading him - do you have any ideas on how to put a stop to this before it becomes a habit? Many Thanks
