[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 413973, member: 1963"] Jena, if he's constantly pulling to one side, he's likely got something bothering him: could be his teeth (a sore mouth can make a horse sore all over), back pain or stiffness, that sort of thing. My experience with this has been that one sidedness in horses stems from discomfort and eventually becomes a habit. And yes, up until I ruined my back, I did ride and train horses. However, I rode English. All the above would still apply. If nothing else, this horse could really benefit from some stretching exercises done on the ground and the like. Once he's a bit limbered up, some elementary dressage work wouldn't hurt him either, provided he is sound enough to handle it. Horses can't talk so you sort of have to do a bit of detective work, LoL [/QUOTE]
