Training a Young Horse to Go Forward & Come Back

And once again now tracking from the right we'll work on coming forward and coming back as much as we can. Obviously we are still trying to basically have them have that idea of going around in a circle around us. That's ok, that's ok, it's always important to be so patient, remember it's not clear to them what we want, good boy. And whoa walk. Very good, good boy. And out, yeah and he keeps wanting to change directions. Good boy, good boy. Good boy. Yeah and whoa, good, good and again one more time. Out, and then he keeps coming forward from the whip and that's really most important right now. And again whoa, whoa and use your voice and also you can pull a little bit on the lunge line, yeah good boy. And it might not be exactly what we are looking for but it's the real main idea that he goes forward and he comes back even if it's not exactly what we are asking for.
