I was interested in the getting off method. I always felt like that was allowing the horse to be the leader. Twisty has no problem with being led out from the barn.
He also refused to go up a very steep hill. Poor horse. I wasn't willing to walk up it, so I made him. One wonders if that even makes sense. I played with him some this morning. I think he's my therapy horse. He's absolutely bomb proof, prefers never to get out of a flat walk and will follow me anywhere without a lead. I practiced swinging my arms around and flopping around on his back (sounds cruel, but Stephanie has athetoid CP). He's our guy. Nancy
