The start of something gooooooooood

[Four Seasons]

I just sat on my 3-year-old stallion for the first time!

Very very chuffed with him and myself! He was a cool dude and it didn't bother him at all! I've been walking around with a big smile since.

Four Seasons is a 3-year-old Dutch Warmblood stallion, by Vivaldi (v. Krack C) out of a Wolfgang mare. I bred, raised and trained him myself. I am very very proud of my cool, calm and collected boy!

Clapping on the saddle, getting him used to sounds and noises on his back

Shuffling the saddle back and forth

And then the more exciting part...

Moving my foot around on his bum

Walking a few steps while hanging

Just before I get on him...

TADAAAA

And with his very gay pink halter

Mister Posh

Yes, I make my stallion gay with pink and purple stuff.

He is jaw-droppingly stunning! What a very good, grown up boy! I really look forward to hearing all about your progress - he is lovely!

 

[PorkChop]

Gorgeous boy, and very chilled

 

[HaffiesRock]

Excellent! Well done you. I bet you are on cloud 9! x

 

[PapaFrita]

He's gorgeous. I remember sitting on LC for the first time; So exciting

 

[Old Bat]

Very chilled and calm, you've done a good job there! He's lovely.

Oh wow - he is such a gorgeous boy and looks very relaxed as well. Must have been very emotional for you after breeding him and watching him grow up. What are your plans for him, will you be keeping him entire?

 

[doratheexplorer]

Wow!! Well done you!!

 

[cellie]

handsome boy Im doing same as you but with very nervy gelding someone has messed up a bit

 

[cundlegreen]

What a front on him, I bet you are dying to start proper work with him. My stallion was just the same, all very matter of fact, and took everything in his stride. I think its the trust issue, when you've had them since babies.

 

[AbFab]

Wow he's beautiful! And so very chilled out

 

[Four Seasons]

@ cundlegreen
I thinks it the trust issue aswell, he just puts up with all of my madness. But he is a nutter too.

@ Tash88
Yes, he's staying entire. He is very sweet, and eventhough his hormones are here, he still listens to his mommy. And he can go in the field with other horses and play. He has the best life a stallion can have, luckily!

Thanks everyone!

Lovely horse and you are clearly doing a great job with him. Very exciting breeding and it looks like you're going to have tons of fun with him!

Wincing a bit at the 'gay' crack though. I know you mean it as a joke and not pejorative but this is a grown up public forum and that's really not the done thing now.

 

[NaeNae87]

Wow he is a looker congrats!!

 

[erwina]

He's gorgeous, love the way a stallion holds themselves, and have to say very partial to a snip.

 

[Jenni_]

Well done- he's stunning!!!!

 

[ecrozier]

He's beautiful and looks very relaxed!

 

[BlairandAzria]

He's gorgeous! You must be so excited to see him progress!
