I'm on cloud nine right now. I just got to take a short nap with my 8 month old weanling! 
I have been playing with clicker training with great success esp. with my 19 year old RBI mare. She never has been a cuddling type horse but has started opening up a lot the past few weeks. 8 ) |

Very, very cool! 
That's especially cool about your 19 year old mare. I've seen some older horses really be transformed by clicker training -- some really open up, start expressing themselves, and start enjoying training.
We had one 20 year old mare who I worked with a lot at the rescue last year. Ex-brood mare, use to being pushed around by people and made to do things. She has really become quite a sweet heart now.

I should know that I can't make a post without a picture! haha Sorry, no actual pictures of laying with him, but this was taken a couple days before.
On a side note here is his half brother at about three months chilling in the yard.
And both colts sire in a bit of a predicament, can't you just see the embarrassment on his face?

My husband thinks the horses are on Self Destruct missions. I agree with Sandra, they never cease to amaze me.
