But don't ignore them completely. I was setting up a barrel in your pasture one time when my horse accidentally stepped on my foot. I yelled to him to "get off my foot!". Apparently it worked and he never did that again. Horses are smarter than people think they are. They can sum up a rider in minutes. I really miss my horse since I sold him.

There's something in here about "You can lead a horse to astronomy...", but I can't quite figure out the rest. >About an hour in, a horse that had escaped from a >nearby field comes running up, no doubt curious about >what the two-legged beasts were up to.
