Hi guys, I got my first horse last week and she is an absolute diamond. She is 10 yo and has done the general things in her life. But due to her owner (ive got her on full loan) she was sat in a field for a long time so I'm having to bring her back into work. She is really easy going and is starting to listen to me when I am lunging her. She is also slightly underweight so im unable to ride her just yet. I am trying to get her to lunge with my voice commands rather than using the whip as she doesnt like it and just freaks out. I have been desensitising her with the whip as soon as we go into the school by rubbing the whip all over her body, I have found this helps quite alot. I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what I could do with her to bring her back into work. Obviously riding is out of the question at the moment and ive seen on some posts that Lunging alot isnt good for them so what else can I do with her? Ive tried free schooling but she just likes to go at one end of the school where her turn out field is and look at her field mates.
