The weather so far this season has been very conducive to being outside, so I am able to spend some time keeping my stud's manners intact. We have now gotten to turning to the inside when working in the roundpen, and are working on showmanship maneuvers. Keep in mind, I don't expect him to win showmanship for me, but I believe EVERY horse has the physical and mental capabilities of these maneuvers, and thus there is no reason they don't need to learn them. I also find these to be installed by very basic ground manners that every horse should have, especially studs. My husband has taken a keen interest in learning to do things with the stud, and I will admit it is hard to have both parties learning at the same time. However, I did the same thing with my gelding so why not? Matt isn't as strict on some things as I would like to see, but he handles every situation very well, and they both get along, which is very important.
