When I first got Joey and was riding him around in our wintry indoor, I had just seen this video and he was being a normal three year old. Not really going or whoaing or steering much at all. And I started saying, "Joey, why aren't you walking? Please WOLK." etc. Thus, he became barn named Joey.

I thought the few seconds were a flat race! Excellent riding. I would have fallen off!

Really my favorite video EVER. I could watch it over and over and over again. I have, actually.

Omg - Loved the video and your narrating! He was stinker that's for sure, but he's also a very pretty mover!

This certainly had me laughing

So funny! (probably not to the rider at the time)

Tesla's barn name should actually be Thumper. Whenever she's being led at what she deems to be Too Slow (which is pretty much any walking speed if she thinks she is headed towards food), she reaches her right front leg out and stops it down, almost like she is Spanish walking. She even did it in a lateral movement the other day when she was annoyed with me.

That is an adorable video and I love the name Joey Zinnia! I was expecting a bit more hopping, though.

My Joey is more of s hopping up and down boy. My friend said we could have done s video like this at the last show of the season. Would have been hilarious. :)
