Finally got my boy to canter today! Yeah!! I was going to use another horse as a lead but girl took forever to get ready I went in school without her. I had to get yo to stand in middle and hold lunge rein as if he was getting lunged (as he understands that). We did get a a canter on our own though with yo's help. Once he got going he was fine. Most importantly, we had no bucks!! This was the prob at end of last year before I turned him away. Id ask for canter and hed just stop and buck. Carp saddle was reason for me turning him away. Now I have my properly fitting saddle, he is more than happy to learn new things! very proud of him today.
another bit of progress
