He's a great boy in general. Seems like most think he had reached the 'green broke rough stage', where they suddenly try to really test you and go batshyt for a bit.
I really hope this hiccup passes easily and I can just keep him. I've already started to make the pasture changes, so my heart has won out again...lol.
Thought you guys would want updates on my guy.
Turns out, he's just an arsehat and testing people. Not pain, not being nasty, nothing too heckish to deal with. I should be able to work on this with him at trailer-in lessons, if I can set those up with my local trainer.
He comes home Saturday. We got a new, lower trailer hitch, 8in drop. It needs a 10in drop, but those seem to only be special order and DH doesn't want to deal with that. Much better than what it was before, at least. The step up and back down is now higher, so hopefully the gelding doesn't have a cow about it.
Slow updates, sorry.
He is staying another week to really work out his attitude.
Other day, he had is first good ride in awhile, no attitude, so that's good.
Comes home on the 5th.
