Attitude!


This colt was born with a lot of attitude!  He is pretty sure that he is the boss...  So on his second day out and about, we started explaining to him that he may be mistaken!  (0:


But we made sure that first Mindy's two "boys" got to meet each other.  True to most  babies, he appreciated being able to have Mindy and Wyatt being at eye level.  Unfortunately his appreciation for his other mother didn't last long...


As some folks like to say... It got a little bit western around here!!


His "Worlds Best Mom" barely even batted an eye as the rodeo started.  She was really more interested in me putting down the camera and giving her a little love.

 

His expression never got wild or scared, he just didn't want to comply with Mindy's wishes... So he found himself in the stall, on his side...  Where he decided that complying was sooo much easier that being flanked to the ground.
We will continue his lessons on what nice boys do!  He needs to be a nice boy, because bad boys don't get too far these days!  (0;

Once  he and Mindy came to an agreement, all was well with the world!  (0:  We had planned on taking him and his momma out into the (desperately needing mowed) lawn, but the sky's opened up and the torrential down pour that ensued saved him from the halter and butt rope!  Lucky dude!!
And as you can see from this last picture, the rodeo didn't affect him in the least bit!
