I'll get more pictures soon, he is very whip shy, its not uncommon for draft horses to be whip abused, or really any horse in the hands of a bad owner. He is terrified of whips, or anything that seems like one, thinks he is going to be hit ): Learned that the hard way when I tried to rub him down with a flag, he didn't but he sure did seem like he wanted to strike at me. Hoping I can get him to realize that it won't hurt him.

A few days ago I took him out, rode with 4 other horses for the first time & we went in the fields, they took off in a race and Hercules started bucking lol. I wasn't ready so my feet came out of the stirrups, I almost flew off too lol. I surprisingly rode him out, gosh I didn't think he would be the one to buck lol. He wanted to go, but I didn't let him lmao. After that ride we haven't done anything, waiting for the sun to finally come out & this rain to go away! I can't wait to take his butt on the trails, I have a feeling thats going to be one heck of an experience since he spooks at the littlest of things.

I was letting him graze in his halter, a couple came walking down our rode and he freaked out lol! They didn't want to cross his path & turned around, he was snorting too lol, don't know what was up with them. I also almost fell off because he flipped out when a squirrel ran in front of us on the road lol, and some other untold experiences we've had so far lmao

My cousin has a perlino mare, who loves to annoy her lol. Last summer she gave her a bath, went into the barn and came back and she had rolled in the mud! She looked at her, she known and did it on purpose lol!
