Hi, I have a 5 yr old mare, that I have been riding in the BB. She is
for the most part pretty responsive with it when were in the arena, but
the last few times I've taken her out on the trail especially with
other horses she can be difficult to stop. She is constantly trying to
trot off mostly to catch up to the horse in front of her and she wants
to trot going down steep ditches but I want to teach her to go slow and
walk calmly down. When she goes to trot off I immediatly reach down and
try to flex her head but sometimes she will turn her head and just keep
going forward and then she sometimes will stumble because her heads
turned to the side. Is there anything that I can do in her training to
help with this??
