Yeah, all this stuff that they do when they're young will (hopefully) stay in their brains when they start going under saddle etc. Even our little half Thoroughrbed filly, who used to rear, strike and bounce around just because she thought it was fun, turned out to be REALLY quiet after I started doing all this stuff with her. I think she just wanted to be like mom! lol Mom was a race horse. Luckily I was able to convince her that we can do all sorts of fun things and there's no need to jump around like a maniac. Now, if something scares her, she wants to go check it out. She practically drags me to whatever spooked her!
Well, Race Car's mom is Hot Wheels. And Race Car got his name because when he was born, literally 5 minutes later he was galloping around the stall. He was born to be fast!Ahhh, there's the boogie man....lets go get it..... I bet all those young horses of yours will be a lot better than mine. I still get a kick out of there being a mini horse out there named Race Car..... I like the name Beaker also....

We also used to have a mini mare called Poppin' A Wheelie. She liked to rear.Then there's Tug At My Heart, aka Tug. Also, a filly named Hopscotch because she would bounce around all over the place when she was little. There are some funny ones here.
My rooster Beaker was named by the kids of the breeder. I think it's a great name for him.
I love his markings! He looks so serious in the second picture!"Hot Wheels"....lol. That's funny about Race Car galloping around like that.... Those are some awesome names...lol. I think everything in general about the mini's makes me smile....not putting them down at all!!!....just bet it is fun to be around them and witness all that!!! .....and then naming them neat names tops it off..... I'd be sayin' their names to them repeatly in funny voices all day long....lol.
I just got out of raising and hualing bucking bulls.....just did it a short while. Here was my Tug. He was just a big ol' sweety! All my bulls were big ol' pets that loved to be brushed everyday.
