[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 958655, member: 14661"] If you have problems with getting them to go, it's best to get that worked out on the ground so that he understands that go means walk before you get on him. Don't be scared to spank his butt to get him moving. If he handles that well then great but if he doesn't, be glad you weren't sitting on him. I like to have all of the commands worked out before I ever get on one and I feel that can be done from the ground with some ingenuity. Every time you teach him something, watch his mouth and ears. When the ears relax and he works his lips, he gets whatever it was you just taught him and the lesson is over. Every horse is different but most of todays quarter horses will learn as fast as you can teach them so there's really no use in grinding him until he gets older. [/QUOTE]
