Ok I thought i'ld take my lovely TB for a nice relaxing **cough** hack out as the weather was so nice today.. I rode him in the school first just for 20mins then took him out he was actually quite good until we came to a fallen branch that isn't normally there and is was extra scary because it was all broken up.. he snorted and spun a few times it took me probably just under 5 mins to perswade him to step over it I can't smack him if he's spooked as it makes him 10 x worse I kept my cool and just quietly nudged him a step if snorted or felt like he was going to spin I just stood him there for a bit before asking him again.. he is very spooky in the woods but not on the road he is very good in traffic.. is this how everyone else would deal with their divvy TB's?? lol you would have thought being a showjumper he wouldn't be such a wimp!!
I didn't mention because I was a bit annoyed with him for being such a muppet I then rode him in the school for a further 1/2 hour he was very good and for once was actually sweaty afterwards.. bless poor Harry horse.. he doesn't sweat up easily must be a TB thing..
