This message is from: Ronni Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> A Funny: R.Taylor, Straw Hat Stables To help the non-Fjordies, Winnie, (who was wonderfully schooled), had the short mane. Tigger, who was in training, had the long mane. Justin, our trainer, was "refreshing" Winnie on flying lead changes at the canter. Tigger was learning to canter on command - 1st lesson. Justin got on the 1st horse (Tigger) and cued for what he expected to be a nice canter & got a trot. So he cued again. On the 3rd try, Tigger figured out what she "thought" he wanted, and did 2 laps of the arena in a canter at the speed of light. Justin pulled her up, patted her, looked down at the long mane and said, "I'm on the wrong horse, aren't I?" We didn't let him forget that for many moons.
