Well i took my weanling colt Navajo out for his first walk , we went about the same distance as a city block. he wanted to nip then bolt , and i think i am now deaf in my right ear lol, but after correcting him everytime he tried something by the end it was a little smoother and not quite so...

i might be able to get my little weanling colt a buddy soon, it would be a filly though, they are both about 3.5 months old, how long would it be safe to keep them together?? i plan on gelding him in the spring as he is not registered or perfect conformation, strictly companion. thank you...
