Can someone help please......
We have a new mare in who I am trying to encourage to ride and lead off a bridle, but she has a tendency to drop behind the lead horse, which results in a pulling match..... the bit then flips and she resists more. I have tried to thread the lead rein through both rings but makes no difference. How do I encourage her to walk more forward without 'pulling', which is not nice for her or me!
I would like to try her with a dually halter as she is very responsive being led in one, but not sure of the legal implications, especially if riding on the lanes.
Any advice please, thanks.
