<<Who is "teaching him his manners", breaking is not in fashion any more.>>

A stiff swat still is when he is young. Wife and neighbor are teaching him not to bite, kick or crowd and to lead on a rope. A little at a time. He doesn't mind being haltered or having a blanket on. Started all this on day one.

There are several trainers around who can get a horse used to being ridden without actually breaking them. That's a couple of years away when his joints are more finished.
