We were laughing about that very thing while out doing a conditioning ride Saturday. I bought Hunter from a woman who was a Parelli instructor in a city about two hours from here. She taught a weekly class there.
I like a lot of things that come from PNH, but Hunter was a very poor representative of natural horsemanship. The seller agreed to deliver him to a spot mid-way between her place and ours. She had a really rough time getting him in my trailer - a trailer that I had never had a horse refuse to go into, very open and spacious. She kept looking at me as if to ask, "Changed your mind yet?" I was thinking "If he doesn't go in this time, she can keep the deposit. I am so out of here." He loaded and I took him home, but for the entire first week I was thinking I had made a very large mistake. I've had him a little over two years now. He does know the seven games and he has loaded like a champ the last four times I hauled him, but that is after two plus years. I have to assume he flunked her class. Nancy
