That word conjures such different images for different people. Any of our horse people have experience with them? I can not find a vet that wants to or is willing to geld my boy Renegade. And to tell the truth, at five, I am not sure that it is even worth it now. He is finally healthy enough, and it is a low fly time of the year, but like I stated, I can't find anyone that will do it. I love him, and he is a honey of a horse. Not a "typical" stallion. But, nevertheless, he is one. I'm interested in anything anyone has to say. Usually once I mention the fact that he is intact, people clam up, and start saying things like, "well he is a stallion, you can't do anything with them" which is patently untrue. I've worked with this horse every day, with the exception of one or two when I was sick, since March of 2007, and he has come a long, long way. And yes, I have even worked with him during "that" time. I've had people slam me for doing that, although, they don't offer any alternatives for training during that time. Just interested in what my byc buddies have to offer.
