Hi everyone. This is my first time on the message board, so here goes...
I took my horse (Handsome, a 3-year old black Tennessee Walker)to Karen's for the clinic with Tony. Jen and I worked our horses in the ring, with a lot of help from Tony. I just have to say that it was a wonderful experience. This is all new to me, and very contradictory to anything that I've ever been taught in the past, and I think it's great. I just wanted to say thank you to Tony for all his help. He was wonderful!! And it was indeed great to be "back in the saddle" with Jen again. Like she said, we go back a long way. I feel this is just a beginning for all of us in the PA club.
I have a question about a problem I'm having with the Porcupine Game. When I try to get Handsome to yield his hind end, instead of crossing one leg over the other, he takes a wide step with his far leg, then steps together with his other leg. I can't seem to get him to cross. Any suggestions?
Also, I would love to network with anyone out there who also has a gaited horse.
Jean
