I have a rising 2 colt (not gelded yet) he's a section A welsh mountain pony.
i was wondering if anyone had any advice for me. All iv been doing with him at the moment is working on his manners. Backing up, standing still, lifting legs, grooming and getting used to someone coming into his stable routinely.
he favours rearing while leading and takes a tantrum when you don't walk where he wants to walk. I want to show him but I can't when he's this worked up and frustrating. Even when he's been out in the field all day he still has all this energy and excitement. He is bomb proof. I have been working a lot with bomb proofing him over the last couple of months because I thought at first he was spooking but nope he's just showing off and being cheeky. I have been told gelding him will settle him down and that is a work in progress as I am looking for a local vet with a reasonable price.
