Wow, that was a lot of pages of posts to read. My OTTB goes great on trails when he is with other horses. When he is not he does the snorting and looking around OP mentioned. I've found that miles...

Yes, thanks for the reminder, I should do this more often! My mare is OK coming back after riding out in the pastures on the property, which is not very far out at all. We just go out there to cool...

Ah, I think we are having a break through, james! You are controlling your horse, you are just calling it something different. You want to call it directing the intention, fine. I do think you...

She gets places by putting one foot in front of the other. Now I may tell her what pace to go, to move to one side or another, to take the left fork instead of the right, to follow a particular path...

I think your answer is in the question. She's afraid going out and not coming back? So, lots of sweaty blankets are the answer. There are 2 things going on here and it could be one or the other or...

bsms: sounds like your horse is a lot like mine! franknbeans: you bring up a really good point. This is part of the reason why I won't force a horse over an obstacle while they are examining it....

See-here is the problem I have with that, and why I pay attention to what my horses are telling me. NOTE: I am not saying that most of the time we do what they think is safe, but I do at least pay...

I'm pretty well convinced that Mia likes being scared. I don't think there is a chance in hell she'll ever stroll down a trail, relaxed and smoking a cigarette. She likes taking the lead, but she is...

If you are a confident, bold rider, then I would push her through just as Toto says. My well-seasoned trail horse is also just fine on all new trails, but as already posted, if a branch moved on...

toto hit the first thing on the head....the horse needs to focus on you and not everything else. You MUST be the boss/leader/etc..... and they have to stay alert to you and the directions you give....

"Interesting she is not as "afraid" when heading towards home? Who is training who, here? Sounds like this horse has your number. Don't force the issue to the point you can not handle it, but...

Depends on the situation. If she's acting like she wants to run, she has to walk. But if she's lacking forward energy a trot can help.

Hahah my horse does the same for the arena! If so much as a pole is moved.. he evades it like it's on fire. Actually the cause for one of my "near" falls. At least they're smart and paying...

Mine are 100% on trails......until you "move the furniture". Great on new trails-but on the ones we frequent-if a STICK is moved it becomes snort worthy. So silly. I just laugh and keep going. ...
