[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 935382, member: 14661"] I second the wet saddle blankets. I also like to run the reins between the front legs and tie with a little slack to the d-rings and let them walk around in a roundpen that way. Let him get used to that and then put a little pressure on so he learns to trot that way. Do it when he's fresh so he fights it some and learns it and then go ride him down without trying to keep his head down and then ask him to give to you when he's tired. If you have it available, turn him out in some nasty steep stuff where he has to walk up and down the hill to get water and feed. Pretty soon he'll learn to stick his nose on the ground and watch where he's going regardless of what else is happening. If he falls down a few times he won't stick his head in the air again when he's walking. [/QUOTE]
