First touch-
I unloaded Apache into his stall on the other side of Seph. He had a glaring face towards Majix. "Apache," I said. "Be nice to Majix." He turned his head towards me and was looking for the chicken sent coming from the tack room. "Not right now boy. As soon as I can get you out to the pin, maybe you can have it." Apache looked very upset that he wouldn't get anything for the ride home. "Okay fine, here you go." I tore off part of a chicken thigh and tossed it into his stall. I went to the tack room and grabbed a full chicken and put it in a closed bucket in the arena. Then, I lead Apache out to the center of the ring. "I am going to try something different with you boy. You seem special."
I tried to load him onto the treadmill made for large animals and attached the chicken to a string. I started it up at a cantering pace. It was a large treadmill, so it would take a bit of more effort for him to get it. He tried different methods, such as reaching his head and neck out or leaping out for it. None of the methods worked. So I slowed the tread down to a trot and he snatched up the chicken in just seconds, and I was able to pet him. "Good boy. Let's get you back to your stall so you can rest for the rest of the day."

First Saddle-
Apache has been working all week and has gotten a lot better about other stallions and geldings, but he still hated them. After a week or two of work on the treadmill, I tried to lounge him. Apache tried nipping at me, but learned his lesson quickly; if Apache bites, then he doesn't get a treat. Finally, he warmed up to the idea of being lounged and letting me touch him without nipping. I let him have a day to himself in the paddock to rest and be ready for the saddle. I put the saddle on the railing of his paddock fence and let him sniff it. He tugged at the saddle pad and got a piece of it in his mouth. "Apache! Don't eat that!"
A day later, I put Apache in to the cross ties. I showed him the saddle pad and he let me put it on just fine. Then, I showed him the saddle and he bit it and through it across the isle way. "Apache," I said. "You aren't supposed to do that! It is supposed to go on your back." I started laughing as I went to achieve the saddle. As I came back, Apache allowed me to put the saddle on and the girth. I gave him a whole rabbit's leg for doing well. "Job well done boy. I think I might try you out in the ring."

First Ride-
I unclipped Apache from the cross ties and lead him to the mounting block. He stood still to let me get on him, but didn't want to budge when I tapped his sides. I called for my riding instructor to lead him into the ring for me. When I was in the ring, I asked for her help to lounge him. Apache didn't really like how I was on his back and started to take off. "Woah Apache! Slow down!" I cried. My instructor, Cindy, thought that she could get him to be better about taking off, so she tried to climb on his back and gave him a tap. Apache turned his head and bit her in the foot. "Apache! Don't bite other people! I'm sorry about that Cindy, he doesn't usually bite."
I climbed back onto him and asked him to walk. He stood there for a minute before deciding to take a canter around the ring. I pulled back on the bit and he slowed to a walk. "Good Apache. This is good." I said. I kicked him once more to see if he would trot. Apache moved at a slow trot along the rail. I nudged at him to go a bit faster, but he did not just speed his pace a little. Instead, he went to a canter. After a half hour more of riding him in the same pattern, he finally decided that it was okay for me to ride him and that he would listen to my commands. "Good boy Apache. I still need to work with you about the others."
