I care for horses and theres this one 18 year old quarter horse who REFUSES to put a halter on. Its like a horsemans nightmare, a horse out at pasture that cant be worked with. He can be bribbed to the fence, and in the begining could be bribed into a halter with a carrot, (worst idea ever, but thats the way he came).
He's in perfect health, great flesh. He's a dream with his feet, picks them up and holds them entirely on his own when you touch them, very very responsive to voice commands once he is haltered. He has no other vices that i can find.
he is the dominate horse between him and his older pasture mate, and cannot be separated from him at this point (since i cannot get him haltered to work with him). both havent been ridden in six years, although i did get him haltered and saddled when he first came in and he went directly into work mode, so i know i wouldnt take much to get him squared away.
I dont have a round pen to work him in either, which is a MAJOR pain.
