This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Marion, so good to hear how well she is coming along and trusting you despite her past ordeals. "The Unfiendly One" Gunnar is doing better after a year. However today the farrier was here and Gunnar was taken away from his food. He was angry and nipped at my hand while I held him and I boxed his nose. I invariably forget the farrier is holding a hoof when I correct my horses. I got glares from Gunnar and the farrier but no retaliation. Other than that, he is more (Gunnar) friendly, acts like an old pro in harness and wonders why we are banging his sides with the poles. I am even getting a fairly decent leg yield on the right, more difficult on the left. He will work for however long you want. So these fjords are forgiving. But it is something to see those angry eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jean
