Can anyone give me any tips on how to stop Danny trailing his hind quarters when I ask him for leg yield?
He moves over nicely, crosses over nicely, just his shoulders go and.... his quarters eventually follow!
Did think of just using my whip either to press or tap his quarters over in time - except he'd just either freeze or take off in a straight line (he isn't a fan of the whip) so that's no good! I've also tried asking him over, if he doesn't stay straight then asking him to carry on in a straight line and asking him to go over again when he is. But he just gets moody and then refuses to go across
Any ideas?? Would like to do more lateral work with him, but don't see much point in doing it wrong all the time!
