oh yeah all the time! He has been ponied in it on trail rides. The sensation. I think he is totally ready if I mounted him, but since I am too heavy for his size now and his age, it has to be my nephew, so I think I will spend a long time, all morning if necessary, getting him and Kale relaxed and enjoying themselves. i think at first he will wonder what is going on, the kid there, around him at the mounting block etc and it may make him wary so I want to get him past that. Janice Janice-- even good horses have bad days sometimes.
