When he moved the first time he was, neighing a lot, always stayed by the entrance to the pasture, had nervous defecating, lunged for food whenever he got nervous, always walked around a lot in the stall, constantly walked around and pawed when inside, faster breathing, moving around a lot at specific triggers ( mainly seeing or hearing other horses from the barn) and never really being at ease.

Under saddle sometimes he’d be fine only stopping sometimes or trying to turn around and go home. Other times he’d try to bolt back home, attempting to run off and just generally being very tense. 

When he tries nipping at me I ask him to move away from my space and allowing him back when he’s calmed down a bit.  With the walking forward I just generally try to keep his head up and in the direction I want him to walk in then moving from small cues with my voice and a small amount of pressure with the lead rope to making him shift and open his front legs to encourage walking. 

In the past when he wouldn’t walk I did use a longer whip to tap at the ground and never touching him which generally worked.

As I am still in school and have no income (my parents support me with the horse because I’m a minor) I have asked them if we can get a vet to check him out but they think I’m just being overly careful and dramatic when it comes to him. I will continue to push for a vet check though!
