Hi to anyone who can help me with teaching neck reining. My horse only does right-left and since I ride her western, I would like to have her neckrein. So I need some how-to information to go about teaching her. I also want to take this time to thank all of you for helping me with my questions. Carol M. On Golden Pond Siren, WI
