I owned two Quarter Horses (a TX mare and a stallion) and a mustang mare
that single-footed. They were a joy to ride. In fact, the stallion, BC,
was a sweet heart as well and is who we put visitors from the city on that
had never ridden a horse in their lives. Of course, it didn't heart that he
was totally voice trained and I could stand and holler directions at him
because the greenhorns had made a total mess of things when they "told" him
to do two things at once <g>
