I was hoping someone would have some words of wisdom for me. I have a 5 year old unbroken id x tb that I can not lead from the field to the stable without her tanking off. Well she doesnt really tank of as much as she walks off but sets her neck against me and I have lost her. She never goes far - about 10 foot away. I have tried normal headcollar, dually and a be nice headcollar. I have tried leading her with a lunge line but still can not hold her. She is not very badly mannered on the groung generally - I can get her to move backwards, forwards and sideways. She has been doing this she was two years old so I think some of this may be learnt behaviour. I had a monty roberts RA out but they were useless to be fair - they wouldnt even try to lead her. I have just started mouthing her but I am loathed to lead her of a bit because if that doesnt work where the hell do you go next? Please dont be nasty with your replys I really am at the end of my tether and just wondered if anone thought there was any hope I will ever be able to lead her in a headcollar in and out of the field. As it is now she has had to go back into her stable as she got away from me too many times this morning. Thanks.
