Congratulations! I had no idea he was a Saddlebred!

[spirithorse21]

Yup, all the way. I love the hot heads. I didn't set out to find one, but he sure has proven to be one heck of a horse!

Excellent!

I could have sworn I remember you saying he was nice but he wasn't really for you a while back.

I have. I have waffled over him from the beginning. I always knew he had the talent I was looking for, but I think our personalities were too similar. We would butt heads over every. little. thing. However, once I got into foxhunting by a couple of seasons and eventing, everything clicked. I found the thing he loved best and had been born to do, and I loved it too. Once I realized that I'd be hard pressed to find another horse that took to it the way Doc has, I set out to find a way to buy him out.

I was interested to notice Podhajsky saying in one of his books that he felt all his dressage horses should go hunting from time to time.

Give them a little brain break. Plus, the varying terrain is good for making them think about their feet!
