| Rocky is really mom's horse. But I help her out with him in terms of training |
| Stormsong Manor |
| Lots of people in the Western showing world especially who like to come at me with that one |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| completely agree, 3+ at least. 2, 2.5 can get accustomed to tack and do groundwork but no rider. and some really could use even another year, and only light work until like 5 |
| Ranch Lands Training |
| I recently saw a trainer that a somewhat respected post that there is no science showing that starting 2 year olds is bad for them 🫠At 2 I'll do throw a saddle on if they seem mentally ready for it and do ground work (not lunging). But I'm not sitting on them until they are 3 minium |
| The Old Gods |
| I like the idea of getting them used to having stuff on their back at 2 or 3. Light weight saddle. Pop it on, take it off, get them used to the girth. But actually getting on them? hell no |
| El Cuco |
| I honestly love the baby brain. They can be a handful but they're entertaining at times. I'm glad he wound up in your care, sounds much better for him. |
| Stormsong Manor |
| Maybe a hot take here but I will die on the hill of not starting a horse under saddle with rider until they're at least 3, and they're still babies at 3. |
| The Old Gods |
| Yeah, thinking Rocky was maybe a two year old? He was a baby. Hasn't been ridden since he got here, so he's getting time to grow up and mature. He's really a sweet boy, but he still has the baby short attention span |
| El Cuco |
| That's awful. My old scronny Arab gal was bigger than that, and my dad is about the same size and rising western. It was a fat "no" when he wanted to ride her. Poor horse. |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Void - Yikes. I am glad to hear he is in better days now. Myth - That is absolutely horrible. I can't imagine your pain. |
| The Old Gods |
| His back is largely straightened up...When he's not being an idiot and trying to recreate an indy 500 crash... |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| cuco I feel you there, we've got a number of young horses we're bringing up that really need moving because we just cannot keep up with all of them and the farm chores and the maintenance and and and... it's a slow process unfortunately |
| The Old Gods |
| I'll stick to being a realist. Zrek: Rocky's doing better. He was a fine boned youngster (arab cross that was 14 hands or so) being ridden by a 200+ guy with a 30 pound western saddle 🙃 |
