Today we decided to introduce the saddle to Nero seeing he was so quiet.



True to Standy form he took it all in his stride and was very well behaved. He didn't object to anything I did with him when putting the saddle on. I then lunged him with the saddle on and he was so well behaved, he did not once attempt any biting,kicking , rearing or anything for that matter. Because I like to let them settle and introduce new things one at a time we decided not to put a rider in the saddle just yet but allow him to realise that it's not going to hurt him and he can trust us. He is definately a sweetie and if he's anything like he was today under saddle he is going to make someone a very nice horse.





After his little workout we gave him his first bath, what can I say, he just stood there lapping it all up and loved the hose being sprayed on his head. I am truely looking forward to seeing this boy under saddle.
