Happy Horse Tip #2-The Lateral Walk

admin — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 19:50:46 +0000

If your horse’s walk tends to be lateral, try one of these two things:
1. Slow the tempo down. Just be sure your horse stays reactive to light driving aids in the slower walk. He shouldn’t get lazy or fall behind your leg.
2. Step slightly sideways. That will break up the legs on the same side so he can step more deliberately with each leg. With a young horse, do a bit of leg yielding. If your horse has more education, do shoulder-fore or shoulder-in.
