Hey guys I need help and fast. I have someone coming out who I'm almost positive rides and has his horses trained or trains them hisself in the charro style, to look at Frodo this weekend. I am engulfing myself in as much as I can find on the Internet over the next few days but I can use all the help and advice I can get. I have two different groups telling me the exact opposite so I really would like to know the truth. Please help if you can thank you.
Sara and Frodo

I decided to follow my gut and say no to his coming with a little outside better knowledge than myself. I couldn't bear to think of Frodo ending up in the wrong hands or just unkind and caring hands. He is staying here for now  |

thank you for talking to me and giving me some advice. I wanted to go in with an open mind since all i knew was that it is not a style I would wish on any horse. I was hoping there was a brighter side but i cant hope for that, i need to know that there is an amazing home, training and riding career in his future for me to even consider parting with him.

You've done a great job with him. If I know I'm going to be selling a horse I try to have another person or two work with them while I'm there. Kigers seem to be very different with new people than they are with"their" person. Its to help guarantee they have a good future.

Thank you so much for that. My sister comes and works with him when she visits and he does great with her, and I am also trying to get a friend involved with him to build her confidence and teach him to work with other people. Plus My husband will go out and so will my neighbors to feed and "pester" him when i am gone or whenever i ask them to. So he has been handled by a few people but not for hard lessons.

He can actually be a brat when there is a new person around because he wants their attention and not mine. So he will follow them when they leave and I will be trying to brush him or clean his feet (since i rarely tie him, though he will stand tied for hours as he proved again today)

Thank you. I am so glad he is here with me and I have had the opportunity to work with him. I never knew a "little" guy could be so pleasant.
