I would have been thrilled with a smaller horse as my husband is only 3 inches taller and less than 20 lbs more than me, but we both really clicked with Falki, personality wise. I spend at least 45 mins at the barn at each feeding time, brushing, clickering, scooping poop around them while they eat, etc. and its more important to me to like the horse that I'm going to be around than anything else. He also has a wonderful back, like Gloi, for bareback riding which once the days get longer and the footing gets better, I'll be doing around the barn (for short training sessions) on almost a daily basis. Michael and I are still not sure who will ride who, when it's time for trail rides. -- Anna Southern Ohio
