She's in a running martingale of sorts right now, and she's only been working on headset for 5 weeks. You only have to ask her once to put her head down and she keeps it down.
Thank you! We're excited to start showing her this summer!
I think it's a good mix of a great trainer and a smart horse! She's definitely not an easy horse to ride anymore! We were thinking she was going to be our beginner rider horse, but that's out the window now!I had a heck of a time loping her in one direction because I kept bumping her with my inside leg, which stops her dead from a lope. I need some work, a three year old filly is showing me up!
Lol, that's one comment I always get, "how can you sit trot so well?" If you can sit trot through my little paint mare's trot you can sit trot on any horse. I'm also thinking it's a bit easier to sit through a trot in a western saddle, although I've done it in english saddles while riding other people's horses, old habits die hard!
