@phantomcolt HA HA!! What is the most rewarding ever is training and driving 2 horses which you bred and raised since birth!! We bred these guys to do what we are doing with them-- and got lucky!

@horsepaintings Horse's are scared of 2 things: 1) Things that move and 2) Things that don't. Haha but good job handling the spook. My boy used to spook at ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. So rewarding though when you know you're the one who brough them past it.

@LifeIsDeceiving That instinct kept them alive since prehistoric times!

@horsepaintings Oh my horse is petrified of those darn killer llamas! He had the llamas fence, a road and another fence between him and the attack llamas but was still scared :P Funny what they see is scary, just goes to show after years of domesticating you can't take their natural instincts away :)!

@PaulieDavis Horses can get nervous about all kinds of things... and their instinct is to run away.

LOL! I have one who would eat those dogs for lunch, but heaven forbid a plastic sandwich bag blow across his path...

@stbdhead I know the feeling. One of ours HATED the foam along the edge of the ocean, when the wind was blowing little piles of it and making it move!
