Bow was my first pony and he taught me that not all horses were as straight forward as the riding school ponies I had learnt how to ride on. He was a 2-year-old Welsh A that had been allowed to walk all over his previous owner. The first week I had him he pinned me in the corner of his stable and tried to double-barrel me as he was protective over his feed! However, me being stubborn I worked hard and eventually got him happy with me sitting next to him as he ate. He still had coltish tendencies which also included him nipping at me and rearing as I would bring him in from the field. Being on the yard he had previously been on I found being young everyone tried interfering and I wasn't getting anywhere with him. Moving yard was the best thing I did with him, I brought him on to be a lovely little riding pony who went out on loan and eventually sold to a nine-year-old novice.
