Hi

I think that there is some good advice here, if you ignore the obvious comments that are just poking fun.

If you are having these problems with your pony, it could be that you or the pony are not ready to jump the size jumps you are asking him to. Start with poles on the ground or cross rails (10-15 cm kind of height) and take him slowly over them at a walk and trot, not a canter, just include them occasionally as you ride around your paddock. When he is comfortable with the poles, maybe increase them slightly. (that is not ducking out or stopping).

If you pull on him in the mouth or do not give him enough rein (crest release) when he jumps the pony will start refusing, this is why you probably need an instructor to help you to tell you what you are doing that might be stopping the pony from jumping. A pony will also cat leap ie jump really high when it does not have enough rein as well.

If you do not have good seat and steering you will not be able to get the horse straight when you ride into the jump, then again the horse will refuse or duck out.

So at the very least you need to stop trying to jump big jumps and start small, work on straightness, crest release, and the pony feeling relaxed and comfortable.

Get some help from your mum or an instructor or an experienced friend.

A pony with sore feet may be reluctant to jump or a sore back, make sure his feet are trimmed, again it would help to have someone more experienced help you here.

All the best.

What a horrible, roughshod comment :(

So what if the OP was genuinely a 13 yr old girl struggling with her pony with no help?

She has told the classic signs of making her pony stale without realising it.

I actually hope to God that you are all right and it is a troll because shame on you all if a young girl has come on here for genuine help.

And what happens when a genuine young person does turn up? Will you help or pour scorn? (directed at all the sarcastic replies not just TH)

I'm not shod at all actually :p

A genuine 13 year old?? Have you actually read the thread? Aw c'mon Ravenwood, it was so a Friday Gnome if ever I saw one!

If a genuine person does come for help and genuinely takes our advice then the system works... posters were giving some great advice! Even me!! :D

I'm not always ready to pour scorn and poke fun, I'm quite good at genuine answers be they good or bad. Not this time though, this was quite a good little joke tbh.

Edited: Just seen your post, you can make an account on youtube, upload a video and post the link or make an account on photobucket (it's free) and upload a video to there, then either post a link, or paste the IMG CODE from the video on your photobucket account here in a post :)

Hi, erm troll, or sensitive thirteen year old. I would like you to know, we are all friendly on this forum (well mostly ;) ) We are here to offer advice and mean no harm. We do however smell a troll, and this forum is rather dull at the moment so I'm sure everyone is up for a bit of banter.

We apologise for being immature :rolleyes::D
Has your failure to get your horse to jump wiped away your sense of humour?

*crawls up in a ball, waiting for abuse*

Hi there AJ, long time no see! Nicely put :)

OP - if you're genuine, don't take too many comments to heart. As aimeejay said, on this forum we love troll-hunting, open season is all year round! So, there are occasionally nasty comments, or comments taken the wrong way, or sometimes advice which is very useful, even though it can be harsh. Don't take it too personally, many people have been accused! We're usually nice on here, but the smell of trolls can make us do crazy things :D If you are a troll, get back under your bridge, if not, please sort out your typing and take this advice. I've seen you've given the horse a break and are working him up, and I look forward to the video if it comes xx
 
Get over to CR VS! It's lonelyyyyyyy... :D

But yes, please sort out your typing OP, it'll only help you get more advice!
