hey everyone,
I just got a draft horse. I rode him for the first time today, and he does not seem very responsive to aids. Although, I did only have a halter on him, so that could be part of it. But I am talking about leg aids.
He is totally bombproof and has a really good mind, so it should be pretty easy to teach him.
He is not that hard (I only walked today though) but it does seem to take a bit to make him leg-yield. (I like my horses almost overlysensitive to aids)
He has not had that much training with it at all, so how would you teach a horse to leg yield who has had no prior experience doing it?
Thanks!
