So, I've got this steer, Lucky. He's pretty good, but really I would like him to be great, especially now that he is getting big. I want him to be well enough behaved that other people could drive him and so that I can ride him. So, there are some bad habits that need to be eradicated. Number one is his trying to crowd me off to the side while I'm walking with him. I think it's a dominance thing. Someone gave me a good tip last summer on how to deal with this sort of thing that I finally got around to trying out - tape a nail to the bottom of your goad. If he starts to crowd just hold the nail out and let him crowd right into it.
Really, in one walk, problem solved. If only all issues were so easily resolved.
