Yeah I know. I was just being facetious. I learned that the hard way. My horse decided since his owner was agreeable to a game of chase in the arena why not indulge the dumb human. When he stopped and I caught him I was pissed and popped him on the shoulder and started yelled at him to never run from me again like that and what if he had tripped on his lunge line...." I was acting like my kid had just run into the street. I had it in my head that he had been in danger. The owner of the stables came running up and got on my case for getting on the horses case. She told me "look at your horse He had no idea what he did now. The good news though is that 10 seconds or let it go and I learned how to not lose my lunge line and how to catch a horse without chasing:').

I think the hardest thing I ever had to learn with horses was to just walk away when I got mad. Especially when they are doing something stupid. But I've been known to throw a bucket at one a time or two.
