She’s never actually kicked... yet.
She’s never actually bitten... yet.

But I don’t trust her. You’re right, it’s the quiet ones that end up in the bell tower with a machine gun ;~)

Even when Bay acted up, I know he wouldn’t kick... when he pulled out of the farrier’s hands I picked up his back foot and stretched it every which way, he wasn’t particularly stiff, I think he was just acting stiff for the farrier because when the farrier has him he is as tense as a rubber band.

If she ever does, she's going to be one of the ones that you need to correct REALLY fast and REALLY hard. Otherwise she's liable to become a holy terror if she thinks she can get by with it. Some horses you can get by with just scaring them really bad, but she don't scare, so she's gonna have to be SHOWN.

Well, don't forget, that farrier was responsible for the boogery cart that bit him. ;-) In Bay's mind, who knows that else the farrier has up his sleeve.
