[RC] A tired stallion is a good stallion! - FreeForm USA
What if you can't get him tired? My 5 YO
Shagya is a big horse with next to nothing on him as far as conditioning I am
continually amazed at his heart rates and recoveries as compared to my CMK
gelding... He has only been under saddle for 10 weeks, his longest
ride being 20 miles. He does have a few little studly moments but for
the most part you would never know he was one. He has his own
area but plays with the other geldings over the fence all day long. I was very
hesitant to buy a stalion, but this guy has been a real joy. Keep in
mind that I have NO mares..................

out doing something!
By howdy you KNOW it! Ever tried to give a 4
year old boy a "time-out"? lol! A stallion needs a job, at least one
worth his salt. Ours has never been a cough potato and what a pleasure
he is to ride, breed, hang around with. Too many stallions never
amount to much because their people are either afraid of hurting them
or just afraid of them,. period. Maybe they shouldn't be stallions if
they are so frail or scary, eh? S
