lol that ok, thanks though.

as far as the barn and lunging... the barn sounds really cool. If you should try lunging him again, try it in a rope halter (with the knots) to discourage him from pulling out of the circle. Most likely, he is troting straigh cuz he is not used to troting a circle by hisself. Ask him to trot then use small jerks on the leadline to keep him oriented to the circle. If he is pulling so hard he pulls you off your feet, you may need the aid of a chain to keep him from running out of the circle. Just untill he gets it though, im fundementally against chains unless they are absolutly necessary.

have fun.
