I have a nearly 3yr old cob who very much knows his strength, and will drag in a normal headcollar - hes never tried to do it in a controller headcollar though.
But he was just sat in a field really at his old home, have done a lot of ground work with him - he'll now lead away from me, respects my space (all the times hes concentrating on me), lunges and long reins. And so hes never been led out of a yard before. Unfortunately our yard goes straight out onto a main road.
Whats the best way to do this? Just get on with it and power forward? Or take it slow and let him stop and look? And what to do if he starts getting strong/spooky?
