    When Do You Call It Quits?

    I agree, he isn't ready for the level of training he is being exposed to...I wouldn't stop working with him, but I'd would lower the level of training, really slow down...set him up for success...do things he can easily master & succeed at and build from there...very slowly, letting him mature...

    Breast Collar Rein Terret

    I would like to add a rein terret to my mini's breastcollar... My collar is only 1/2" wide and the hardware is brass... This is the only thing I can find...I'm worried the 1/2" won't be thick enough to support it well... http://www.iowavalleycarriage.com/content/breast-collar-terret Anyone...

    Is Crystal pregnant?

    If you do think she is pregnant I'd be concerned with the amount of road apples in the environment...I noticed you said you leave it there for colic control (I'm not sure how that will help with colic)...monitoring fecal output can be a good way to catch colic early and when there is a fair...

    Learned a Lesson

    It sounds like the horse knows what he/she can get away with...some horses can be a little pushy but once you arm yourself with a little training knowledge you'll have a really nice horse...it would be time & money well spent (not only for this horse, but also for the next horse you get) to work...
