Hmmm, we have one, very strong willed, opinionated and to clever for his own good! Very loving but acts first and thinks later, will kill (kick) anyone (other horses) when food is around and if he doesn't want you on his back then your in for a rough ride!
On the plus side my ten year old loves him dearly and is trying to persevere with him. He is very talented and often jumps the 4ft fence for fun, the dividing field fence! However if he isn't in a jumping mood when ridden then he just thrusts his head to the ground as you land.
And don't get me started on loading him
Hmm reading this back I'm not sure why he's still here he was supposed to be a pony club pony but the loading issues got the better of me.

Oh they've got character! mine would test a rider but i could put a non rider on his back and he wouldn't come out of walk.
But he did used to jump into the next field and pinch their hay when his ran out! and i caught him going on his knees under a slip rail to get to another horse's field for food.
But if he did buckeroo when i rode him he always kept his head up so i didn't come off and he never " dumped" me like some horses do.

Thank you so much, Jinglejoys, that made me so happy   I remembered when my sisters and brothers and I would try to turn our little Dartmoor ponies into circus ponies (we didn't do that well though ) but would do "round the worlds" "under and overs" vaulting over their tails or necks etc. Happy, happy days
