Honeybee

Posted by freyafjord on 5/1/2007

I used to call Honeybee an evil beast and she said the same of me. But over the years we have become buddies. Before she came to live with me she had 2 foals and was greenbroke. When I tried her out she seemed like a well behaved horse and very sensible. When I got her home she wasn't so well behaved. She tried to bite me and wouldn't stand still for saddling or mounting. She also wouldn't leave the barn area when I was on her back. Eventually I figured out the saddle was too narrow for her broad appaloosa back and she didn't like her bit. With better fitting tack and lots of ground work using John Lyons training, she slowly became better behaved and now she is a great trail horse.
