Hi
all,
I have a new pair of perch geldings. Am working them singly now to sort
out some minor issues and things are going well. Unfortunately, one of
these horses is the lazy type and the other a bit forward--neither to a
fault, really, and they may settle in fine--but in the meantime, I'm
considering trying something I read about in one of Lynn Miller's book.
Thanks,

Carla ..... Would you rather have a horse that is eager to go forward and
on the bit ?
OR one that every few yards needs to be touched with a line or the
whip?
Don't tie back a horse that's eager to go unless it's a runaway and
spoiled.
I have been driving a Heavyweight Horse that the folks who had him as a
youngster were afraid of him.
They used a tie -back system on him and he almost quit pulling even on a
wagon.
