RE: [RC] Riding alone... - heidi larsonI like and do both!! My guy is pretty spooky, but alone he pays attention to me and has learned that I'm his herd (or something like that.) He does great with my stepdaughter on another horse that is highly competitive. It's taught him the fun of racing. Being alone has taught him to calm down and trust me. And the best benefit of riding alone in training, is that in a ride, if he ever buddies up with someone, it's not the end of the world if that buddy and he are separated. Nothing to me is worse than a herd-bound horse out on the trail. It's can be very dangerous and is also annoying. I always feel sorry for people who have to have the buddy horse at the vet check with them so their horse will pulse down. heidi and Ash Jody Rogers-Buttram <dragnin100@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
