A sorry to my boy

[Supertrooper]

I’ve really not enjoyed having him this winter. He’s grumpy and difficult to do anything with and it’s been totally horrible. But my nice boy is emerging again

That's heartening, pleased you've got your nice boy back again. Fatty is vile at the moment, he came with no manners and although he improved, he's now gone backwards and tried to kick my OK yesterday! Roll on some better weather!

It’s not fun is it, mine was semi wild and a stallion till he was six. World Horse Welfare say they’ll always revert back to feral mode when they feel under pressure or stress. He definitely does.

This winter has been horrible, really horrible.

Your nice boy really is nice btw! Who/what is he?

I think he’s got some welsh in him, he was rescued at 6yrs old by World Horse Welfare and I took him on 2yrs after that

He looks Welshy doesn’t he. Gorgeous face.

Omg that face ??
I feel your pain though. So much I wanted to do with my youngster but the weather has buggered it up. He's bloody feral at the moment ???

 

[Supertrooper]

He is a little dude, if he was human he’d be a wee thug but would be nice (mostly) to his mum ?

If Fatty was human he'd be locked up, broke through the hedge today, galloped through the garden past OH who was doing a bit of pruning and ended up back at the stables. He is just so naughty ATM!

What a timely post, I was thinking exactly the same thing this week. My highland is becoming really grumpy and tetchy, its been a horrid winter. hes fed up, Im fed up, hes getting bargy and rude and I just cant be bothered to argue with him. He lost a shoe this week as well so no riding this weekend. Ive got Cheltenham week off so hopefully I can start to get a grip then and we will fall back in love!!

I do love a blond!

Aww, glad he's reverted back to sanity. Will be spring soon.

I've got one who is a bit fed up of the mud and rain now, she's fine with us but is a bit irritable in the field with the others. And I've got one who is ridiculous atm...I mean he's always a bit ridiculous but he's been really pushing the boat out in the last couple of weeks...so he is back in proper work to see if we can do something useful with that energy!

I think that, overall, taking the combination of wind, rain, snow, sleet, hailstones, that this has been (and according to the forecast still is) the worst winter in slightly longer than I can remember.

Thankfully, so far at least, ours have retained their manners. Then again they don't really have to do much other than stand for a daily check over. There's no way I'm getting on Titch, though at least the ground would offer a soft land, albeit with the danger of drowning!

Hopefully(!) the better weather is coming and neds will return to being their usual pleasant selves.
