trotting about  - the horse decided to throw in a little  buck - utilizing 
that leap movement at the very appropriate time - he pushed  him into a very 
lovely canter - 
Not having a highly sensitive butt myself, I sometimes can't tell if Joe is  
bucking or leaping into the canter!!  Either way it makes me laugh!

Thank you Kay, you have to be related to Robin Williams or Billy 
CrystalI love your sense of humor. You always make me smile.


With that thought process in mind,...I watched my husband, (the person who 
refuses to accept that  X  does exist)  - riding one of our own Fjords the 
other day - trotting about  - the horse decided to throw in a little buck - 
utilizing that leap movement at the very appropriate time - he pushed him 
into a very lovely canter -  the hind end right under him - and maintained a 
rather impressive three or four rounds on the rail in  my outdoor.


I once heard a term used for selling a clumsy horse - yes he has three 
gates start, stumble and fall..  perhaps with what I just observed - 
we can say some Fjords are three   1/2 gated  walk, trot and with a 
buck/canter.


All horses, are different in how they learn and how they accept, treasure 
what you have.


In humor,
