Horse Ground Training Exercise: Keep Moving
Like 1 Dislike 0 Published on 11 Aug 2017
Here: A favorite ground-training exercise for you and your horse. Suitable: Anytime, rain or shine!
Why: Because you ride the horse you lead!
Given that you really do ride the horse you lead, here's a terrific (and easy!) ground exercise for you to practice with your horse on a rainy day. Later, when you're riding, keep what you learn here in mind - a horse that learns to carry itself fluidly in all directions is a well-trained horse indeed!
----------- ARE YOU STARTING OR RE-STARTING A HORSE? -----------
Begin with round pen training -- and here's how:

NOTE: I RECOMMEND PICKING UP A COPY OF THE PAPERBACK ("Round Penning: First Steps to Starting a Horse"). It offers additional guidance and gives you something to carry to the barn, something to "refer to" often. Here's the link: http://amzn.to/2qFHzmX
