Yes, definitely! Everyone says she has a screw loose but I worship the ground she walks on.. I just love her attitude, she's very "go go go" and always so keen and excitable, I could go into her stable at 3am with a bridle and she would be up for a gallop with no questions asked. She brings the biggest smiles to my face, she is completely nutty but so much fun to ride. Although she is fairly aloof and diva-ish she does acknowledge that I am 'her person' and it's a lovely feeling. The only thing I am trying to change about her is her complete lack of ground manners, as she will walk over absolutely anyone (especially when stressed by a cat on a fence / pony in the wrong paddock or something similarly out place) and I can't stand bad manners on the ground - however this is very much work in progress and we are slowly getting there!
Very different to the previous horse, I absolutely loved him to pieces but we weren't at all suited. I got him as a scruffy mess at the sales and I was very much his carer - once I had put in all the hard work, given him lots of love, had him looking wonderful and gave him everything a horse could ever wish for, he was obviously so fed up of people that he never gave anything back, was very stubborn and difficult and we definitely were not on the same page. Understandable really as I had traced his background and found out what he'd been through, but was extremely hard work. Couldn't rehome him due to endless medical issues, and his delightful attitude (plus as said previously - for some reason I was incredibly attached to him!!) but I had no idea how much I had been missing fun-wise until I got my mare.
