the boy has learned to boink!!

[lilym]

now he is getting fitter and the weather has gotten colder, his lordship has learned to "boink" he sort of jumps up and down on the spot a bit!! once he has settled he works really nicely, can manage changing rein in a straight line now, some leg yeild and shoulder fore, and has just started his trot work in the school, so i think i can live with the boink!! i assume it's a stage i vaugley remember my mare going through boinking as well as the nasty whip/spin shoulder drop, evil baggage

what habits does your horse have or had and how did you cure it??!

boink - wat a good word!

Sov has the delightful 'warp speed direction change' The 'if you want collection I will do a mini-rear' and the 'aaaargh scary invisible TB eating monster sideways leap'!

My mum hacked him out last week and it was quite enlightening to see what he looks like to others

, no wonder hacking partners arent queuing up!

Lol, I totally wasnt sure what this post was about, haha. MIne is doing that to! We got a vertical rear and a leap whilst trying to get him in the lorry last night - on the way home he practically loaded himself - nugget!

When i first got Mae she would nap at the gate, got her to stop this by using a schooling whip and keeping my leg on her. She could also be trotting/cantering and do a sharp turn!
