Hi Janice, Thank you. I'll try to think of other ways to go. This spot is esentially in the middle of all the trails I know out there. Maybe it is time I learn a new trail or a back way. I'm not one to go off the beaten track if I've never been there and am nervious when I go somewhere new. I am very much like a horse so I think like one too *lol* I will try the treat every time he goes by it and does what he is supposed to. He does try to see what he can get away with. He is a naughty little boy and seems to enjoy trying to outsmart me. He was bucking every time I asked for a canter. Finally, after trying it twice in the arena last night, he stopped. Guess he realized it is futile. Keep the suggestions coming. I really do appreciate them. Judy
