Hi, wondered if anyone could give any exercises or tips on how to lengthen my horses stride.
I have a 15hh welsh cob cross who is quite short coupled. He has what we call pony/horse strides (should be horse but very stuffy and pony like!). He can lengthen when he wants to but 9/10 when I ask for him to lengthen he takes great pleasure in speeding up or becoming even shorter and bouncer and it's difficult to keep a contact.
It's starting to really effect our jumping and we're not able to progress our dressage because of it either. Any tips/advice welcome!
