I share dales x cob who I adore and love as if he was my own. I have had so many highs with him, from getting back into jumping to winning in the show ring. However, recently I have found myself in tears after one of his moments. He's becoming restless and fidgety when handed, and misbehaves when ridden. over the winter he has started napping and this week he has taken off with me twice. I hack out alone during the week and in company at the weekend depending on the soundness of his owners other horse.
I know that a good instructor will sort everything or at least most things, however we don't have a school at the yard. I have access to two schools, but neither are really lesson appropriate. One is ownede by a lady who does lessons (I have tried her, but her style of teaching reduces me to tears) and the other school is next to a field inhabited by an ex racer who goes crazy and runs up and down the fence line, which sets B off.
Can anyone recommend anything to make me not feel like I can't ride and dread getting on?
