Cuzco learned to bow after about two weeks of training when he was 12 years old... who says you can't teach an old goat new tricks?? 
You can also see from that photo how narrow he is nowadays. He used to fit a normal wooden saddle very well, but by the time he got to be around 11 years old he lost enough flesh and muscling from his topline that the front fork of a wooden saddle began to rest right down on his spine. I can lift it with extra padding, but I prefer to just use the Sopris and avoid all of that.
