Saturdays lesson was not that great - he was really spooky, wouldn't relax & had a few tanties...we attempted to canter however he must have been watching rabbits all winter & all he could do was leap around like a bunny. Had my instructor & I in fits of laughter!
Taking a moment to gather our thoughts :)
Kind of relaxing....
Todays lesson was much, much better. Had a little trouble relaxing on the right rein but we got there eventually. Ended up doing some great canter work and leg yields etc to try and keep him interested so was quite happy.
Absolutely sure there is something scary over there!
Trying to get him to chill...
At last a nice trot
No bunny hopping today!
He is a pain in the arse to bring back in every winter but I accept thats him - he isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination so I just grin & bear it...can get frustrating like yesterday but when he tries so hard the next day it makes it worthwhile.
No lessons for a few weeks now but will take him down to the local jumping arena in a few weeks & try & hopefully get that drama sorted out quickly too :)
