Hey everyone, long time no post :-)
Ginger is gone, and for the rest of the summer I am working with a young Welsh pony to get her ready to be a school pony. Right now she's pretty green, and she gets really nervous and spooky with a rider (although she is also unaccustomed to our yard, which is definitely a factor). She also has the typical wiggly problem, although it is slightly more of an issue since our ring is not fenced in. Are there any exercises any of you can suggest to work with her? I have some ideas, but I'd like some new opinions and I don't want her to get bored doing the same thing over and over (she's a crafty little pony ;) ). Thanks! I'm really excited to have a new project to work on. :-)
