What can I do to make my horse calmer in the countryside?
Hey everyone, I want to go on a longer ride soon, which my little horse is already used to, but she's usually very impatient and often wants to trot or canter, and then getting her back into a walk is really difficult. Staying still in the countryside is almost impossible. Since the route I want to ride has traffic in some places and she gets really fidgety when I try to get her to stop, I wanted to ask if you have any experience with this, and if so, what I can do about it.

Ride is the magic word. It is achieved by a normal training of the horse. It is not a sign of weakness that can be made by an instructor. It can’t be everyone in every area. Even one should be able to develop so far that the ride can be maintained. Then you don’t need to ride again so often.
Step riding. Only step! And that off the roads or other places where you endanger third parties also not on Sunday afternoon where all people walk.
Unfortunately, you have to give up a bigger ride until the horse is properly trained and you have it well under control. Even if this lasts a few years! Nix with “bald”. Security goes on.
With a horse that you don’t have under control you don’t go to the terrain. Also you have a coach and work out the basics in the square.
Thank you so much
If you have the opportunity to ride with very experienced horses in the group. If not helps walk. routine, doing some exercises that the horse hopefully knows from the ground work. A neck ring can help you to not just pull in your mouth. Helps many horses. For your ride, I’d lead on the streets, is safer. Make yourself visible
Try before you go to the ground in a quiet place in local to peasants and take him the fear by perhaps only for a while leading him to the ground before you ride him out
No rides until the horse is right on the help. Only when she listens to comma and lets herself be regulated, you should ride.
Hi, I have to say that I don’t really know yet and have little experience…
With my current riding share, I can only go out and he couldn’t stop at first, so we went behind another horse and even at first only routes where it is not too bad. Volten we have often gone when we had to wait and stopped again. I walked a lot with him and stopped from the floor (he also did not find so great xD) and then again and again from above. I was looking for a point where I wanted to stand, and if it didn’t work, I turned it backwards or we went another round until we stood there. Time and again.
Maybe it will help your horse if you get rid of some energy before… I wouldn’t take such a route on the other hand if I knew there would be problems.
Thanks for the tips that I will try out and while riding out I am also with two friends with relatively quiet horses
Ah okay, then wish you a lot of success
Thank you
Well, there only helps weeks/months/years training … and no tips from the internet …
You can bend the bigger ride… or you’re thinking about walking and running the master’s time…
Don’t go out alone with a horse like this and don’t plan a bigger ride. Just walk-rounds, maybe a few weeks, maybe months. Until she realizes that it’s not getting nagged and cut. I need more information for more.
The question is, why is so restless? Is that alone? How is it in the group? How is she among other riders? Was it always that and how long have you got it?
She has this for a long time and in a group it is usually also possible, unfortunately she is handycapt, which is why this could be uneasy.
How long is “always longer” and what was the trigger that it got worse?
What handicap?
“Gehandicapt” is what exactly?
