Yes, I posted on here the other day that my two (ancient sensible cob and young very sensible cob) were behaving like idiots, for them, when I turned them out - spooking at sheep and trying to take off before I got the headcollars off.

Just got back from checking on them and they were charging around the field and right on their toes. Given I nearly lost the old boy to a hoof injury, and then half his hoof wall fell off and he wasn't quite sound for a long time, its nice to see him full of himself TBH.

Yes mine decided he didn’t want to go any further on our afternoon back Wednesday threw his toys out I got off and then he pulled the reins out of my hand and bogged off. Luckily he went the way he didn’t want to then came back a bit sheepish moments later. He had a lesson in hand walking followed by a good lunge. A night out and by Thursday morning he was back to normal.
