Tightening Up a Gait


Please excuse my "hunch". I will definitely be working on my EQ this summer, that's for sure!

When I was going through the images of Bogey and I at the 4H show in July, I was noticing that he drags his hocks out behind him in both the walk and the jog. I haven't been able to find a lope picture yet, but I'll look into that.

Goal for the summer is tightening up his gaits and getting him underneath himself.

There was an article in Horse & Rider I believe on this very subject a couple months ago. I'll have to look for it and let you all know what I find.

If anyone has any exercises, or suggestions on this very topic, I'm all ears! I would love to have more things to do with Bogey this summer.
