I keep working with all the boys on letting me touch them in the stalls. Familiarity is the best way to get them tamed. Shiloh, Bleu and Sam I put in cross ties and brushed and sacked out with a towel. Funny thing is that they aren’t afraid of that hardly at all. They don’t want me touching their back legs. Shiloh is the worst at that. Sam is the best. They are big fluffy stuffed animals now that they are dry and brushed. A couple days after I brought the first three up, I used a scissor to cut a bridle path on them. I can’t stand that long hair caught in my fingers when putting on halters. They didn’t care a bit.
Sam has a very crooked jaw. I looked in his mouth today to see if there is anything going on in there. He has to have points on his teeth! I will have to have my vet out to float his teeth. Probably one of the reasons he doesn’t like to eat anything very hard. He is a slow eater on his hay as well. I like his conformation probably the best of all the boys. He has shorter hair as well. Looks like them otherwise.
