Don't worry. No self respecting horse would allow you to remain there long. His friends would laugh at him for the company he keeps. By the way. brush your teeth you have a crap eating grin.

Either take the saddle to a tack shop or you can use a brass plate with\nsmall tacks and attach it to the back of the saddle

communicate to the horse w/ ur leg pressure. basically u want ur horse to not only respond to clicks & reins, but also the amount of pressure ur legs r giving the horse to speed it up (in ur case)

I believe the actual word for sitting on a horse is 'mount'.\ni.e. I mounted my horse.\n\nBut you wouldn't use the word 'mount' in your example sentence - you'd normally just say "I want to ride a horse" or "I'm going horse-riding".

If youre having trouble with fluid movement, you'll probably find that he has almost been overschooled in his dressage. What you need to do is dont worry about holding him in a frame. Maintain a light, loose contact and encourage him forward in the gate that he is in. Dont ask for anything in that gate and use your seat to control the speed ie lower it (drop your seat) to slow down and lighten it and push forward slightly to speed up. Just forget what he is doing with his head at the moment as that can be corrected later. When jumping, use small jumps and do the same thing. Let him carry himself, not you carry him, and eventually he will come around.

Stay off it! Keep ice on it for a few minutes at a time. And maybe keep it elevated.

Use the same aid as you would for canter.  Once you are cantering you will need to push your horse alot more to get it in to a gallop.

There is entirely too much weight for a horse to bear on a broken leg, from the cannon bone down to his hoof, sessamoids. I did it, but, it takes a lot of patience and care. It can be done, but, too often, because the insurance will cover the cost, purchase price and/or last/highest/average winnings of a horse, many owners and trainers wrongfully make the decsion on advise from the veterinarian to 'put a horse down'.\n\nI owned a racehorse that broke his sessamoids in a race and I refused to destroy the horse. I cared for the horse and ten years later, he is running around the paddock whinnying at every broodmare that passes by. I consider myself more the exception than the rule. It only took about 90 days of stall rest for the leg to partially recover, and with a bandaged leg, put out into a small paddock and after another 90 days, fully recovered.\n\nSpanish Riddle was a racehorse that had a partial amputation and lived and bred well to broodmares for a few years, then was put down due to colic. Whether or not the colic had anythging to do with the amputation is questionable. Temperment plays a big factor in cases of leg injury and recovery. \n\nWhen a horse breaks a leg, Ruffian, that horse needs to be cared for from the moment the horse comes out of the anesthesia by hoisting the horse up by a huge crane and lowering the horse into a pool of water while sedated. When the horse realizes his situation, nature kicks in and the horse will be cognizant of his injury. By keeping the horse in the pool of water by a hoisted crane, the horse will be able to kick and move the bandaged leg without any furthur injury to the leg. Slowly, with medication, proper diet and plenty of vegetable/mineral oil to prevent colic, a horse may, I said may, recover from a broken leg. \n\nThe operation on Ruffian was successful. It was the reaction after the operation, that caused the horse to try and stand that caused the broken leg to be challanged. Had Ruffian been sedated and rushed to a full equine clinic with full operating facilities and aftercare, that horse would have had a fair chance at recovery after ninety days and after three or four years, may have been broodmared out to Secretariat. What a progeny that would have been. Carried by Ruffian and sired by Secretariat. the bidding would have started at $10 million and who knows what that foal would have accomplished.\n\nSo, to answer your question, why does a horse have to be destroyed if he breaks a leg during a race: it is often done so for humane reasons and if you look at the leg of a horse, you will niotice there is no muscle behind the cannon bone for a horse to rely upon when racing, jumping, etc., and then there's the matter of mortality/insurance...\n\nGreat question...Thank you

i remove my horse from the carriage and then tie him to the wooden fence post outside the saloon.\n\nwhen it's time to go back to the cabin with any lady i meet, the horse knows the way.  that leaves my hands free to frolick with the lady.  the horse is sort of on autopilot.  it helps to have his food at the cabin.  he usually gets hungry at night, and i get horny.

You need to use your seat and legs.  Keep the legs on- you should be able to hold a peice of paper to the horses side with your lower leg.  Relaxing the back and pelvis also allows the horse to move better underneath you.  You can't change a horses personality.  If they are quiet by nature, there's not much you can do other than asking.  You shouldn't whack your horse with a whip, but use it as an aid.  If you are asking with leg and seat, and they don't respond- tap with the whip.  But first you have to make sure you are using your leg and seat.

I used to do it when my horse peed!\nAfter a while I could make him pee on que, before cleaning the stall and new bedding.\n\nThe same way you can teach them to come for water or food or just to come to you. If you start doing it when they get something they want, they will come to it eventually.

adjust the stirups so when you stand up in the stirups you have about 2 inches of day light between your rearend and the seat of the saddle. Ride with weight in the stirups. Keep your heels down and your toes up while your feet are in the stirups. also squeeze the swells of the saddle with your thighs as you ride. also try to get in rythum with the horse. Know what lead the horse is in and swing your hip forward as the horsed front leg comes forward. Ride Relaxed!!!
