Hi everyone, I need some help. Now before you criticize, I am going to school in September and bringing this horse along with me. During the course, I will be teaching him in depth, but I just need to get him to a certain point.
He is a 16hh Quarter Horse gelding built like a tank. As I have learned today, he is very attached to his new friend. I tried to get him to go through a gate to get him to the round pen but he would not go through, so I decided to work in the field. He needs some practice leading because he crowds a lot. So as I was brushing him today in the field (which is 30 acres) he decided to yank the lead rope out of my hand and run away to his buddy. As I approached him, his buddy ran away and he followed. I spent 3 hours following him around and wasn't successful. I'm not sure what to do.
