Then you find the loose horse and have no idea how he got there.<br /><br />Nate definitely has superior athletic ability and a superior brain to go along with it. Too bad he doesn't use either one to cooperate with his humans. *G*<br />Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10029423500476995817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367127003525577065.post-51680357821311927642016-01-08T12:00:04.058-05:002016-01-08T12:00:04.058-05:00Well, if there were a "special" Olympics...Well, if there were a "special" Olympics for horses he would definitely qualify!Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367127003525577065.post-50237771724470322692016-01-08T10:41:54.621-05:002016-01-08T10:41:54.621-05:00Oh Nate!!!

He seems to be a little calmer if the dog is in there with him or another horse. His girl Dusty was a calming force for him but she's gone now so we need to try another steady horse to keep him company I think. Maybe Blue would help. We'll see this weekend.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367127003525577065.post-81428697868965895742016-01-07T15:30:54.602-05:002016-01-07T15:30:54.602-05:00What a big gorgeous guy!

He probably offers some kinda clue, or maybe not. As you know, some horses just don't like indoors, and others it's the outdoor arenas - or anything for that matter. There has to be a reason tho, especially behind just one. Is he in there alone? Sometimes I wish horses could speak, sure would make things a lot easier - and likely noisier lol.

That he is so huge and yet so controlled in his body to do these things is really amazing. :) I have to laugh - that gorgeous indoor arena and he just doesn't like it!!
