nvr2many liked post by calicokatt On thread : Making horse softer in the mouth

Personally, I prefer to teach the halt bareback. I can feel the instant they're responding, and they can feel the instant my body starts to say 'stop' rather than waiting for some larger sign from...

horsecrazygirl13 liked post by calicokatt On thread : Very nervous/spooky horse help!

GLOVES, GLOVES, GLOVES! If the horse pulls, AT ALL, don't handle him without gloves! If nothing else, it'll save your hands. Horse savvy kids and dogs are your friends, find some to help you,...

Back2Horseback liked post by calicokatt On thread : Weight keeping me from getting back into riding :(

Don't be so hard on yourself! I would never tell someone your size that they were too heavy for ANY of my horses. If I had a little pony, then maybe..... I'm bigger than you are, 192 at the minute...

Ripplewind liked post by calicokatt On thread : I want to see those long and full manes/tails!

Yes, I know she's barefoot, she can't reach the stirrups anyway, so her foot can't get stuck! This horse has so much hair that he has earned the nickname 'Aslan' at our local shows.

I would think it would be possible that your symptoms may improve over time. If they do not, I'm not sure that riding is really a good idea. I am one of those that always says 'If I die riding (or...

Spotted liked post by calicokatt On thread : Bad idea to let horse's feet go more than 12 weeks?

I own an arab gelding who was only trimmed about every 12 weeks or so before I got him. The farrier (a respected shoer in our community) told the owner that his feet 'self trim' and chip off and...

Muppetgirl liked post by calicokatt On thread : Snaffle bits.....ugh!

lmao. I understand your frustration, however, nearly every horse should be able to perform the basics in a snaffle. Bitting up should be used to refine cues to your horse, not just for extra stop,...

Corporal liked post by calicokatt On thread : Bareback -v- tacked

YES!!! My own mare is much more 'hot' and unresponsive when undersaddle if I put my leg back into the correct position. So it is entirely possible that with your saddle putting your leg into a...

PunksTank liked post by calicokatt On thread : Bareback -v- tacked

To me it sounds like YOU think your saddle and bridle fits like a charm, but YOUR HORSE does not.... If she does not respond well with the bit while bareback, I'd try changing bits. If she responds...

Lwhisperer liked post by calicokatt On thread : Help with Slowing Gaits in Lunging and Riding

I know for my mare, who is very speedy, that my dressage instructor (when I could afford her) had me 'pulse' the reins at the canter. So basically, keep the leg on to keep from breaking gait, and...
