Think outside the box

Knowing what your horse is thinking can play a big part in developing a trusting partnership 

Almost every day you’ll encounter situations that you and your horse have different opinions about. Whether it’s spooky behaviour under saddle or refusing to co-operate on the ground, it’s easy to assume your horse is simply being obstinate. After all, he’s been in that corner of the arena a thousand times before, right?

By taking time to understand why your horse may react as he does, you’ll be better equipped to help him through challenging times and come out the other side as friends.

We’ve come up with some common scenarios you and your horse might be faced with, and our top tips and advice will help you work through them together.
