:-/ Rant!

Really not impressed at what I witnessed earlier this afternoon in busy traffic......

2 horses in the town, one looked very well behaved and the other seemed very freaked out!
The girl on the freaked out horse was swearing and shouting her head off at the horse cos he was not going in straight lines and sort of going side ways up the road....now I know horses need experience of traffic, but at busy times??!!
Also shouting at the horse in my opinion will unsettle the horse more....she must have been uneasy on the horse as she was leaned very far forward ... she completely showed herself up at shouting and swearing at the horse
They did right by taking the nervous horse out with a horse that seemed very confident, but maybe they should stick to quieter roads, or a quieter time of day!

Tell me about it, I live in a rural location and was driving along a very major road which has small country lanes feeding onto it, I was cruising along at about 60mph when I noticed up ahead 2 thoroughbred type horses waiting at a junction to cross across the road onto another minor lane..... I slowed and one of the horses was spooking around onto the main road! So very dangerous if you didn't see up ahead you could have easily hit it if you were zooming along!
