I really need to build my confidence up.
RIght now, with Murray, he has his ear/ head-shyness and with him rearing and pulling, I freak out. Not to the point I don't want to ride or be near him, just when no one is near by to help or watch over.
Sue says I'm too soft, but Murray is a good horse to ride, but I need to be firm with him and make him listen (as he's pretty much a pet to his owners). He's been allowed to be bad for a year, so we have to make him listen. My trial with him is almost up too.
Any ideas on building my confidence? Merci.
