A 28j. Horse is not lazy! Just as little as a 70j. Jesus! He can’t afford what a 25 year can afford. It’s not different for the horse.

Honestly, a riding school that offers serious lessons on an old horse is really out in my eyes. If it’s not just a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit, then such a horse shouldn’t go along in class anymore.

Whatever you mean you’re “doing it feel it” – it feels a fly on its skin. No need for pure bolts!

You or your parents should insist that you get another horse.

  • The riding instructor is changing if you have to ask something like this.
  • Ensure that the horse is not always so slow for age, but only you have the problem.
  • make it clear that the horse is not disturbed by colliding aids or a fixed pelvis.
  • observe the horse’s footsteps; You can always activate only the footing backbone. If you drive at the wrong moment, the horse doesn’t know what to do.
  • Do not jam, squeeze or knock, but instead give pulses and possibly support them with the bark (directly behind the calf, also when the hind leg is rooted).

I assume that pretty early or very uncertain. such riders are given horses who prefer to fall asleep than to make one step too much. However, these horses are still very old often hardly recognizable among a good rider.

our stallsenior doesn’t even go under a lazy runner. under a real reitfloh he also likes to take over the top and has “go” like a fifteen year old.

in many riding schools, the starter horses work mainly about the vote of the riding instructor, while the signals from the one that is raised are completely ignored.

but honestly – without such horses, first class lessons would not be possible.

Yes – I worked in a riding stable, there was someone “just outside the opening hours”, and I was instructed to give a horse to the young man who was supposed to ride. I’ve already saddled myself and brought him the lap into the hall. He came into the saddle after all, but the horse did not move from the place. He slept over the horse and wanted spores and barley. I gave him a jumper with a “flying claw” and he managed to move the horse to the next corner, where it lowered the head and made his claw and a stumbling pass over. It was open to me a feast… and an even bigger feast was me when he asked me to prove to him that the horse would run – but also like him without spores! I sit down on the horse and immediately blew a few rounds….😂😂😂

And I have to say, at the moment, I’m just reversed. A horse that is “in part-time pension” new in school, I hardly get into the gallop. But I’d bite my tongue over the horse. Because I know that the “older horse” (as I said: part-time pension!) only a few months ago carried a rider for victory in a jump test. It’s just used to masters. A “normal rider” like me does not take it for the first time. I’ll have to practice a little more….

Exactly the case I also had quite a beginner on quite green horse ride so her rounds, with a lot of moe a round of trench and then back to the middle and pause. Riding instructor injured, so she couldn’t even get into the saddle. I was just standing around at the riding place, so she asked me “Speak, can you sit down?”, I was just saying, “Now? In jeans and sneakers? All right.”

Upset and at a fast pace over the riding ground. “Get it 🤷 ♀️”

Other rider set up again “who should be in swing now” – horse chills just somewhere around

As far as I know, she hasn’t seen the horse anymore – at least that she needs a professor 😅

In riding lessons? Rather unqualified. Otherwise you would first have the absolute base gelernt: with blunt horses leg away, with electric horses leg up!

With a horse that reacts so bluntly, it must be something very special that a leg comes and what wants. In the quietest reaction, the help has to leave, otherwise the horse closes out of further help, reacts nothing at all, the driving does not stop, so it prefers not to react if it does not help him.

easy to sit, go along in the movement, take a long time and NOT knock.

experienced school horses go as well as the rider rides.

the old man has nothing to do with it. when you take old school horses from school, they usually die after a very short time because they lack the task. also for the head.

If the horse is still healthy and fit (for an old horse it can also be easy that it is a bit more leisurely on the go without being directly lazy), you can achieve this through correct riding and correct help. You’ll ideally learn them at your riding instructor on site.

What you do is the wrong approach.

I often drive

You shouldn’t often drive, but just when it’s necessary. So not “lost, run faster, run faster, go, hopp hopp, go, run faster,” but “ah, I realize you’re just going underway, please set the leg a little more forward.” So just explain, you’re just driving when the horse is slower. As long as it has the speed you want again, then you let yourself take quite passively away from the movement.

and also so that she feels it

That sounds like you’re pressing a lot or even knocking against the ribs. Make sure your leg rests on the horse farm for a long time, so the foot tips are relaxed to the front. Never drive with the hack.

And then the same principle as above: first you ask about a slight tightening of your body with the calf once the horse doesn’t react, again more clearly, and then you can also make an energetic aching with the barley (of course don’t beat, just make attention). Then the horse should also react to this, if it is properly given, it must not ignore the help. So it becomes more subtle and more attentive on the leg.

It is also important that you do not block the horse in the movement. If you drive your legs as I imagine, you’re not loose in your hip. Thus, the movement cannot flow properly through the horse, and then it is only natural that it does not want to move forward.

However, since you can’t learn everything from yourself, you should ask your riding instructor on site and, if necessary, take seat length hours.

I hope you understand what I’m going to do and can implement it in the future 🙂

(I have simplified some things here, but I think it is best to understand)

Horses are not “faul”, there is a reason for their basic pace.

Either the horse is more of the cozy variety that prefers to bumble instead of burning, or it is the age, completely dull it can of course also be, it can test you or have pain and probably still 1.567 other reasons…

Ask the persons who also work with the horse (other whipmen, riding instructors, etc.) whether the animal is so with them.

Then consider whether you might block the animal with your help. Do you fix body parts that should be loose? Where are your legs? What are your hands doing? Sometimes it’s less.

it could help the horse make several breaks during training and give the horse a piece of carrot so it gets more fun and has more Elan

so it helped me

Don’t ride the horse anymore. At the age, it should enjoy the last time without constantly having someone on the back. At such a high age, I would also be slower

Then I would refuse to do that to the poor animal. I’m not a crusty PETA advocate or something, but with such things the mind says yes that the horse is old and not lazy and may not be ridden anymore

Especially at this age it takes the usual routine assignment, tasks, but better often among easy riders and with exercises that are physiologically sensible. There are enough literature for dealing with old horses…

Here’s a tip

Some “faule”, even older horse is often unrecognized when the right rider sits on it…

When someone rides well, a lot of horse is very motivated.

among some riders, horses have no reason to be fleissig.

in the rule sits the problem in the saddle.

But age has nothing to do with whether it can be moved or not. So when it comes to it that it is generally lazy, you have to swing with you…. (just the same thing, pony fly) has already said. Bzw. wrote

Talk best with those there and ask them if it really is a good solution to still strain the horse. Just ask for

I had a lot to do with horses. Unfortunately, for two years now, because my deceased. Being moved, walking slowly is a good way, but I wouldn’t ride like that if he’s slower anyway and no longer has so much Elan

A 28-year-old horse may not start from laziness. The animal is old. Are you hunting old people faster through the supermarket because you think they’re lazy?
