Dear Keith...
Monday, November 21, 2005
My wife and i have a person training our 4 year old thoroughbred which he states is flighty, and some times it is.
He states that there is nothing that he can do with the horse, and that we should sell it. We are not horseman. Is their something that we can do or try. Please help.
thank you for your time.
