Id keep her on a loose rein and when she takes that first quick step id calmly give the reins a tap to slow her and the more she speeds up id tap her back down to a slower gait till she walks calmly...

Horses are not afraid to get a drink. They are afraid of possible poor footing that might make them fall or get stuck. They are afraid that the creek is a bottomless pit that will sink then into the...

:lol: :D. That's me! Somebody has to be the black sheep in my family haha

My wife and I came together because of horses, and I have been riding longer than she has been alive ( I am her "old man" in more ways than one). But she is a dressage trainer and instructor, and I...

I've just started riding my horse at 'almost' liberty...just using a cord on her neck. Now, if it REALLY mattered that much to the horse....wouldn't she not listen to my aids and maybe even bucked...

I will take a picture of the boys tomorrow. Biscuit is quiet the chunky monkey and golden chunky monkey at that. Horses are good for your soul...they make me smile no matter what!

Gunslinger, I think that you and my husband would be great friends if we lived closer. Denise, I know it is hard, but this will pass.

I will tell you that if the horse is a little bit unfit, they will find it exceedingly difficult to back up a hill, especially if it's very steep. Most the hills where I live that actually require...

If it is an extreme hill, I make my horse walk because I am paranoid that she will step in a hole and tumble on down. If it is a wide open area with only slight incline, then I am not too worried...
