Sylvia,

You and I have had exactly the same experience.  I confess I only know a
handful of Icelandics and one of our two is only 3/4, but I have had 44
years with other breeds and none of them were as easy as these three
Icelandics I know.

Hunter, a particularly reactive horse, knocked me down the first time I went
to put a blanket on him.  Who would have expected that kind of reaction from
a nine year old gelding?  Yrsa's introduction to a blanket, a HUGE
horse-sized, hang on the floor at her sides blanket, was a yawn.

They certainly have had some horsey reactions to a couple of things, but
very low on the drama meter as compared to the ex-race horses I used to buy.

Nancy
