group together, Biscuit
usually hangs back.

Biscuit has some trust
issues still, but if you
take it easy with her,
and give her a little
time to get comfortable

sweet mare.

Other comments:
We think Biscuit could
make a wonderful horse
for someone who has the
time to spend with her
and the ability to bring
her along slowly. She
still shows some trust
issues due to abuse in
her pre-LSER years: she
throws her rear end
around at the handler
occasionally, although
she has never actually
kicked. She has been
haltered and led around
with a saddle, and she
would buck a few times
to get the saddle off,
but would then suddenly
resume a casual walk
around the pasture. We
would like to see her
stay with her on-again,
off-again best friend
India, if possible, as
they seem to have a bond
that has continued as
they change homes
together.
