Temperament: Willow is shy, but she is not aggressive. I have had Willow since July 2007. She was kind and followed me at first, then started showing her dominant side. She now runs away. She does not care to be handled. She will allow me to pet her while eating; however, she will walk around feed trough to get away. She hasn’t kicked or bit at people, but she will run you over if you get in her way. She does not like dogs.

Willow will calm down and be tamer if she has someone who has the time to spend with her and ride her.
