| It's actually pretty funny. He'll go and sulk at mom if I discipline him |
| Ranch Lands Training |
| I started my jumper under saddle at 3 and jumped at 4 and was jumping a meter maybe 1.10 at 5. My 4 year old right now was only started last May and has been in super slow work. She spent the summer pasture/fence checking and then moved into arena work this winter |
| The Old Gods |
| 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. |
