    It would be the constantly watching to make sure the horse didn't think there was a reason to think food or hay was involved along with the size that would put me off. That size animal coming at you teeth bared and charging. I've been flattened by a smaller one and that wasn't fun. I'd be wary...

    Not a facebook but an advert site one. Advert for a very large sport type who sounds lethal. Has aggression issues with food in and out the stable, can't take a wheelbarrow in the field because he'll charge you. Stressy, dominant, bites, needs restarting, bolts when mounted and ridden, needs...

    What have I gotten myself into :/

    I have a mare who sounds quite similar. She will tolerate a quick scratch but when she wants it. Try and do it on your terms instead of hers and she'll pick her ears back and squeal. She's not a pet her all over kind of mare either. Neck scratches fine, shoulder maybe, but don't bother going...

    Old horse, young companion, stupid idea?
