How do I stop my horse galloping home when I fall off?

[mustardsmum]

Haven't read all the replies - but after I had a bad fall and my old pony galloped home over three miles on the roads, I now always give my current boy a treat when I get off (that and after his inhaler are the only treats he gets). Now whenever I get off, he's looking for something to eat But he is totally motivated by Hedgy treats! My daughter fell off him jumping in the field recently, and the first thing he did was put his head down for a treat......................

‘Zombie thread‘ but good advice never gets old. Not sure why there’s a reason to be negative? The post came up on google high up when googling subject matter of exactly the advice I needed. Especially when it comes to a serious matter of horses running off to possible danger.
I’ll never understand negative un helpful comments on forums.

You should take your own advice about negative posts

A zombie warning is useful because people often post expecting replies from users who left the forum years ago.
