Hi everyone
I'm having problems... Whilst out hacking... my horse gets to sposific spots & won't budge!!!!.....This can be different locations on the just one.....
I've tried
Light pressure
More leg
Crop
Been patient
Turning In tight circuls
getting off & walking supporting her of course
nothing has happened previous spooks/upset
Etc etc
I was at a halt yest for 45 mins..... I couldn't get one more step.... If I had I would have praised & gone back the other way..... I think it's because I sometimes turn left just b4 & go a different route..... my reasoning is that she just didn't want to go that way.....
Please advise as I no that u need to be strong & go the way u want not the horse......but I would have Been there for hours as she was not going forward..
Any advise much appreciated x
