Answer 1

Answer 2

There are many, many great resources available to you from some of the top trainers, who deal with difficult horses and bad behaviors...Pat and Linda Parelli, Craig Cameron, Josh Lyons.  I subscribe to the Horse & Rider magazine that will also sometimes address bad behaviors.  Do your homework, there is alot of information out there.  But as with most animals, if you are afraid, your gelding knows it!
