hi every onee
On the yard ther is this crackiing jumping pony, 14.2hh connie x welsh cob 7 years old and i am currently helping the rider with him. He is a short backed pony with short strides, when he relaxes he takes fewer slightly longer strides instead of taking lots of very short strides...
questions...
1) When he is asked to go in an outline he comes round nicely but his strides become very short and he slows down - almost trying to walk on the spot.
**he just seems to think that coming in an outline means SHORT strides...**
I havent been on him since before xmas - i have jus been helping her from the ground. Im not sure that if me getting on the pony is the right decision as him being in an outline with me will not sort the problem out for the rider.
Any suggestions welcome
Thanks x
