Since you have taken offense to my suggestion about looking up riding longhorns to LEARN about some tips or things they do....I certainly in no way suggested you go buy one or anything like that... just that they have been doing it for quite awhile and just might have some things figured out.... I will also make this comment.

You commented on this thread about the pregnant cow that had gone off feed... but did not read all the way through before making that comment you posted, because about 3 weeks after the first post, on the second page of the thread....she said the calf was a stillborn... perhaps you should read the whole post to see if your comment is relevant.....
I have no space for any more cows and I have asked for advice about the cow I already have not new cows or anything else

Geeze Louise!

Simmer down! Maybe you'd like to go back and re-read the advice you asked for and were given. People went out of their way to help, and you might consider being grateful for the time they took.

No one suggested that you get a new cow! They only suggested looking up (googling) information about training oxen and riding longhorns because some of the information might apply to training your cow. SMH...

I did and they are not trained in a humane way you can do with a cow like mine

Oh my...it's a good one. Several really, by a gal who has trained her cows. Very informative and easy to watch. Maybe another person with a phone that will allow it to work. :fl or library, or a public wifi.

^ my grandfather trained a steer to sulky on a bet. The steer did actually trot and the button says he did ? mile in 2.10 minutes I presume. Hard to read the button. Can’t remember the steer’s name but he died after being struck by a freight train. My grandfather went to court and won damages. I’m guessing this is the mid ‘40s.
