I seem to get more intimidated now I'm older.<BR/><BR/>I suspected mustangs were slow growers because they eat so poorly while they are wild and get a late start.arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09089402069527140627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905830803741462835.post-55142534868321708532009-03-30T15:24:00.000-07:002009-03-30T15:24:00.000-07:00Arlene - please don't get discouraged.

You will do better when the weather quiets down.

He was HUGE! Remember, sometimes the wild ones breed with domestics and they can be large! Our two seem to be small, especially Scout. Small, compact, but a great little turner! Man, can she run and turn! Scout was the most mistrustful of ALL our horses, but now she's a real "love bug". He'll come around once you can start working with him again!Cheryl Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04211625006758463474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905830803741462835.post-44393347037954920592009-03-29T21:24:00.000-07:002009-03-29T21:24:00.000-07:00Thanks for the encouraging words.

I forgot all about how most horses act in the Spring because old Foxsun is always the same no matter what. <BR/><BR/>I don't know what it is about me that gets feeling so discouraged so quick. Not a good thing at all and I have to try to change.arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09089402069527140627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905830803741462835.post-70921647722162521462009-03-29T15:42:00.000-07:002009-03-29T15:42:00.000-07:00Yeah, definately, don't get discouraged.

But until the day I get an indoor arena (which will be never) I can't do much of anything in the winter with snow and ice--now mud. So, it's little by little. A little grooming, leading, haltering and unhaltering, picking up feet--until Spring is solidly here. You'll have a lot more time this summer and he'll probably come right around. He was a real sweetie for you last year. :)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14303523299217618526noreply@blogger.com
