A stallion acting like a stallion is one thing,a stallion with no respect for

I was there the first day. My husband was there the second. What I saw was a
horse going after his handler, looking as if he wanted to savage her. It was
very worrisome. She was having trouble wit

My first reaction on reading that the NFHR evaluation doesn't address
temperament was surprise, after reading in Carol's book that the Dutch
have three different "scores" for temperament. I think they were
