Hi all,

bit of a weird request... was just wondering if any of you own a horse and would be willing to let me introduce my dog to it? (on lead of course and would keep our distance)

I have a 10 month old English Bull Terrier (very friendly... too friendly) and we've just moved out into kintbury. I've taken her out for walks and have noticed horse tracks along the foot path we walk along. She's seen cows before and she got really excited and wanted to go play with them... thankfully I had her on her lead at the time so she couldn't go to them.

Basically I want her to meet a horse so she knows what it is and to teach her to be calm around them.

I'm arranging to spend some time with a trainer first to find out how exactly to go about doing this, so was hoping to introduce her to a horse after spending some time with the dog trainer.

If anyone's willing to lend a hand, send me a message or reply to the thread!

thanks,
Andrea
