Hi everyone!
I'm back after a long absence and can't believe how much the site has changed! Appologies for anything I get wrong- I was going to log out and give up 'cause it now looks so complicated, but then remembered the good advice i've been given in the past..!
So, heres my question..
I have a 4yo cob who is going out nicely in company but the people at my yard don't often ride out when I can, so I want to start to hack out alone.
I am not overly confident about trying this, and admit I have been putting it off!
I've hacked him out with a friend walking a couple of times, and he was fairly settled as long as she was in front, and I've led him out in hand loads and he is always good.
Does any one have any advice or suggestions to help make the transition from what we have been doing to hacking out alone as easy and stress free as possible for both me and my favourite boy?
All replies greatfully recieved!
