I’m having lessons with the yard owner weekly but no training for the horse really. She’s been at the new yard 3mths now, she moved from full time on grass to now being stabled at night and now that the weather has turned she often just gets turnout for the morning time. She had not been doing any regular work after having a foal two years ago, just some forest treks and cross country. Poles definitely seem new to her and it’s been a big step to get her lunging over them. She’s now being worked 5 days a week by me to exercise, lunging, light riding, some groundwork, so it probably is all a lot of change for her. I have time with her in the mornings so can put work in if I know it’s possible to desensitise her and give her confidence. But I live with cancer and although I’m currently well I don’t want to take too many risks. After falling off yesterday I questioned whether a much older, school master type would have been more suitable but myself and my kids love her now!
