[RC] Boldness - Donna CossI sense that most of you believe that horses reared in a herd environment are not bold,but it seems to be more a matter of breeding and the inherited traits from the family line. Not going to disagree, but I am totally convinced then, that my herd of Shagya Arabians, have all inherited this self confidence. After all, I guess when you breed for an ideal CALVARY HORSE, for 200 years--this is one of the characteristics that would be on your blue print! Plus some ruthless culling and intelligent selection! They are a fantastic breed, but we need more endurance people riding them. Slowly the numbers are increasing in the U.S. And more are finding their way into the hands of good people!
