RE: Mare pins ears

My gelding does the same thing especially when in an enclosed area. He's pretty green and I just chalk it up to a bad attitude when it comes to work and not being in charge. I'm sure he'll change as he learns and matures.

Subject: RC: Mare pins ears

My mare pins her ears whenever I ask her to trot or canter, not only when I use leg aids, but also if I only use a voice cue.  She seems to do it more in the arena than when on trail.  I have just had her teeth floated and changed to a saddle that fits her well.  Her back is no longer sore when I palpate it.  So what is it?  A bad attitude, or memories of pain?  How can I encourage her to stop it?
