Tips for an ex barrel horse?
I just got an 18 yo retired barrel horse. She is absolutely amazing and I love her to pieces. She is so smart and we are really getting accustomed to each other, however I wanted to know if anyone had some suggestions for exercises or books that would give me training suggestions. Right now I am having to refresh her with her basic commands and signals (she has been out in the pasture for a year) I have no intention of racing her but just want a good trail horse and pleasure rider.
Wow she sounds great. I would just work on simple exercises, such as figure eights, serpentines, transitions, etc. Make sure that she is used to new experiences, such as cars, umbrellas, bikes, etc, so that she doesn't spook on the trail. You could also get some friends and play some gymkhana games with her, or do an obstacle course. Good luck, and have fun!
