To stop this you will need to be firm and in control of the horse. You have to establish yourself as 'herd leader' by making the horse move where ever and whenever you want it to, but don't bully the horse either or it will fight back. To begin, make sure you are in an enclosed area and there are no distractions around. You should have a halter and long 10-14 foot lead rope. Begin by backing the horse up, getting him to move forward and then sideways. After that lead him around the space, if he lags behind swing the end of the rope gently at his hindquarters to make him move forward. If he barges ahead, then place your arm or the handle end of a whip in front of him to stop him. It may take weeks or even months to correct this, but once you do, don't let him fall back into bad habits again.

How do you vault on a horse in mounted games?

to vault on a horse in mounted games or Prince Phillip cup games you have to get the horse/pony to trot alongside you when you are running at it's shoulder. then put your right hand on the pommel (the front of the saddle) and your left hand on the pony's mane. then face the front of the horse and jump along trying to swing your legs upover the saddle. keep praising the horse as you go along and talk to it. GOOD LUCK!!


When you walk a horse how can i break it from walking ahead of me?

You should call a trainer or more experienced friend to help you. But generally the best way is to carry a dressage whip in your left hand, while you are leading the horse with your right hand. When the horse starts to push to the front simply bring the handle of the whip up to chest level and let the horse bump into it. He will learn that he is not supposed to go past you. Alternatively you can stop walking and make the horse back up each time he tries to get in front of you. Eventually he will stop doing it.

How do you keep the horse still while getting on her?

well, when you walk into the arena or field or wherever you ride, you stop the horse with the reins, get on a mounting block or make your stirrups really long, hold your reins in your left hand and put that hand on the front of the saddle. your right hand goes on the back of the saddle and then you just swing on to the horse. The key here is to make sure your left hand has the reins tight enough so that your horse doesn't take off. (obviously, if you lengthened your stirrups before getting on, you would tighten it before you ride)
