Just a quick quiz!
I bought a horse about 2 months ago and when i saw him i thought i couldn't have found a more perfect horse. He jumped calmly and didn't rush, never spooked, went out on his own quite happily, a totally chilled horse.
Passed the 5* vetting.
Now he's at home he spooks at EVERYTHING he can try to find scary, even rubber matting on the floor... that wouldn't bother me, but now he's a bucker.
Take for instance about a month ago when we had a canter on a hack, and he bucked. Then bombed off , bucking as he went. Then spooked, he bucked. Now, i ask him to canter over a trotting pole and he bucks!
It's starting to really put me off and im' wondering whats happening other than him getting excited and settling in.
I've had his back and saddle checked and they were out and he had a sore back so maybe the first three can be let go..
Any one suggest anything?
Thanks.
Sorry if i rambled...
