A horse can not REAR up if he is moving forward. Rearing is a very bad and dangerous habit and should be discouraged. Most horses that develop the habit often do it in response to a rider being too heavy handed and hurting the horses' mouth.

What do you do when your horse wont stop backing up?

What I do is, when my horse backs up when i want her to stop or go forward I MAKE her back up about half way accross the arena. Everytime she starts to un-wantedly back up I make sure she does, but for how long and when I want her to. Once you have done this, your horse will willingly go forward!! :) Repeate this everytime your horse backs up on her own, and after a while she/he will relyse that everytime she wants to back up and does that your going to make her back up more than she wants to and she will quit! Good Luck


How do you train your horse for a sliding stop?

Before you go for a sliding stop, make sure your horse already stops when you just sit down in the saddle (backing up helps get a good stop if you do not have the normal stop perfect yet). When you get this good, get your horse into a fast lope and when you're ready, sit back in the saddle. You don't really want to pull on the reins because this calls for a shorter sliding stop. If you get your horse going fast enough, he will slide. Just make sure you have the proper equipment: a nice snady arena with nice fluffy dirt. Rice hulls can help get a nice fluffy top. Also, tie up the tail incase you have to back up to reinforce the stop so the horse sets back on his hocks better.


How do you stop your pony from being stubborn?

Make the horse want to do what you ask it to and make the horse understand you are the leader. To be the leader, move the horses feet forward, left, right and backwards. To make the horse want to do what you are asking it, make what you are asking it be the easiest thing to do. Like, if you want the horse to stop, lope the horse until he is begging to stop, and then, when you give the slightest signal to stop, the horse will stop on a dime.
