Starting under saddle a young horse... alone.

Spike your mare is looking great!

Anyone has a tip for a horse that is reluctant to move forward of the leg? I’m planing on doing more ground driving but she is totally cool with me on, walk and trot when a helper is lounging us on the line. But when I get on by myself she is very reluctant to move of the leg or whip or voice. I’m thinking that ground driving might help, any other tips?

I’ll bet she looks even better NOW (4 years later.) :lol:

You may want to start a thread with your own question, Kasiopea. This one is really old!

I’m glad this got bumped up… what a beautiful mare!
