How many of you can do this....

After just browsing....I came across this advert...sweet looking mare just not too sure those piccies are great when trying to sell imo....

How many of you can do what this chap is doing on your horses?

My STOOOPID ex used to do that on his old mare

Also he would run up behind her and leapfrog onto her back.

Funny that once he sold her, whenever he went to see her in her new home, she would squeal and run off

we can do the walking past a car bit and just about stand still but the stool bit - no chance !!!!

 

[Peacelily]

stooopid stooopid!

You mean like this?

Pink tolerates anythings and isn't in the slightest bit bothered what humans get up to, as long as it doesn't hurt her. True horse in a million. That Candy cob for sale reminds me of her - she's lovely

I saw this ad yesterday and I thought the same thing! This dealer always does this in his ads - it doesn't prove anything about how placid the horse is and quite frankly it just looks demeaning to the animal involved, if you understand what I mean?

 

[Chestnutmare]

Oh OK so you can then

...what a genuine horsey you have...wow!!!

i dunno id say it says a lot about how placcid the horse is! and a lot about the rider's skill...or bravery.i dont know a lot of horses id try that stunt on!
Dealer seems to have a nice range of horses for sale and comes across as fairly honest to me......Prepares to hear horror storys about said dealer....

 

[night_mare]

lol not sure i'd even want to try it

 

[Ranyhyn]

I could do it. If I was stupid.

 

[JDChaser]

it's demeaning to the horse?! What about when vaulters stand on their horses backs, is that demeaning too?

I don't see any problem with the pictures, the horse obviously isn't bothered.
