  • actually Merlin is not just a pure Lusitano, just 7/8 he is part QH also ;)

  • Yes it is Merlin! He comes from the breeding farm of Jacques Bonnier in France, that is also where they carefully choose and train their horses.

    Lots of theses horses are not just pure Lusitano horses, some of them are Cruzados, Thoroubred X Lusitano horses

  • I dont agree with the whole bull fighting thing. but god that horse can move... Lush.

  • That horse (Merlin) is not panicked at all. A panicked horse would not charge at a bull. It takes years and years of careful training and if you have ever seen that horse in an actual bull fight, he almost appears to enjoy it. I myself was disgusted with bullfighting. The horse and bull are highly respected figures in Spain, and if people would care to research the topic and understand the culture, it would not offend you so much.

  • he's got great cow sense like a good cutting horse! no wonder he has quarter horse in him. not a fan of bull fighting at all, but he is a beautiful specimen of a horse!

  • @AZZUL5986 PRE and Lusitano (Iberian) are sons of the same Breed (Andalusian, Spaniard). The Berbers introduced the horses in Iberia from Andalusia.

  • Merlin is the bomb! So cool moves like fred Astaire!

  • @jrhowardamyrose actually, the training is for the horse to move this way with the rider on top! my lusitano stallion has been doing these exact moves on his own since he was a tiny foal! the momen he saw a calf staring at him he'd charge into it and tease it till the calf charged back and then he only moved aside at the last moment leaving the calf in stupour and looking all proud of himself! it was a HUGE laugh! I refuse to take part in it, but if he likes it, I let him have his fun ;)

  • What a great job that guy has running around with a fake bull, it looks so fun if I got offered the job I would so take it

  • ITS IT POSIBLE TO BUY ONE OF THIS JACQUES BONIERES HORSES AND HOW?

  • @theepona1 Actually He does care. He said so. "A righteous man regards the life of his animal,

    But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel." Proverbs 12:10 Personally I believe in a just God, and that all those who inflict pain and suffering on an animal in the name of "sport" will, unless they repent, suffer every iota of pain they have caused.

  • I would totally take a job as the person running around with a fake bull.

  • @theepona1 yeah I think god cares. And it's cruel,actually. How would you like to be that bull being stabbed in the back and drowning in your own blood?

  • @ModelHorse8 - this tradition has been going on for centuries, I don't think "god" cares.
