Just need a bit of a moan really....
Does anyone else have a horse that has temper tantrums? I love my horse to bits but flippin heck he can be so difficult some times!
I have had for three years, he is Welsh and I know all the tricks he throws at me and manage to deal with them. He has only ever had me off twice having a tantrum in all that time.
I suppose after this mornings episode I just need to vent because I wish he realised what it does to me mentally when he has a paddy!
Don't get me wrong...I cope and it does not happen all that often...and we just get on with it but ggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
This morning it was because a horse passed us and he wanted to follow, so he started his buck, plunge and prance larky...it did not last long and I stayed on and we got through...but you see your life flash by and think...this is it...I'm on the floor in a minute. I hate that feeling
Anyway, no point to the post, just a grumble...we lived to tell the tale and apparently it makes me into a better rider!!!
Who else has a nuisance horse with a temper?
