Hello all, I just got back from a ride and I have a question: I live in
Northern Arizona and everywere I go there are large hills ( in my opion they
are large!! ) Okay my question being: how can I tell if my horse is actualy
using his haunches?? He is a Dressage horse but also has a longer back. We
always ride hills at the walk but he goes VERY slow and I am wondering if he
is not correctly using himself?? Also, what do some of you do as far as hill
training goes?? Do you walk or trot, or canter down hills..... I'm sure you
can tell, I'm new to this!!!! I would GREATLY appreciate any opions or advice
or whatever you have..... please E-Mail me at Olympian06@aol.com
Thanks again!!!!!!
