The quickest way to describe Comet would be to simply call him unique. Strange is likely a better term. He's an odd one, following you around like a little lost puppy. In fact, he's rather dog like in general. He'll give you kisses by licking your hand (or any other part of you, for that matter), he'll stay if told, he'll come when called. It hasn't been trained into him - it just simply is. He's a person horse, he needs people around. Stick him out to pasture in some far corner where he won't get any attention, and the poor guy will go stir-crazy.
He's generally a friendly beast, adoring just about every person he comes across and he likes to make sure that they know just how much he cares. He'll block his stall door so you have to stay, he'll curl his neck around you and pin you to his side for a hug of sorts, he'll rest his head on your shoulder and contentedly take a nap... He'll do just about anything to keep human contact or attention. He's been known to nibble on the ends of someone's hair if he particularly likes them more than others, and he's not beyond pushing his nose up against your mouth so that you have to give him his daily dosage of kisses.
You can tell he's still young, of course. Noises he can't see and particularly strong winds bother him, though he'll walk over to sniff just about anything else, including a car that's going eighty kilometers an hour. Water isn't an issue, unless it's coming at him from a hose, though he has been known to walk right into the middle of a large puddle and then stand there, realize he doesn't actually want to walk through a puddle at that moment, and back right out again.
For all his adorable, forgivable faults, there is one in particular that annoys just about anyone working with him. He's as stubborn as a mule until you earn his respect. He isn't dangerous about it, of course. Rather, he's prone to walking away before you get your foot in the stirrup to hop on, or stopping and refusing to move. On particularly bad days, when he really feels like testing you, he'll back up or side step from one side of the arena to the other, no matter what you're actually telling him to do. Ride it out, and he eventually gives up. It just might take an hour or two first.
