Hi,
Have bought a 15hh Welsh x TB gelding, 18 year old lovely lovely boy.
The problem is this, out on a hack, going out he is v v lazy, an doesn't really listen to my leg much at all. He is also a v spooky lad but am OK with that. However when I turn round on the hack to come back, or he realises we are on the return part of our hack loop, he does that goes loop.
Starts jogging, if I keep half halting, after a while he will just start trotting sideways an head tossing, then spooking at even a blade of grass, any ideas on how to change this behaviour ? He is exactly the same either hacking alone, with one other, or a group.
Thank you in advance
