If you were pregnant and owned a 5 year old you were training, what would you do with your horse during your pregnancy?
My mare is 4, turning 5 very soon. She has 3 rides on her at the walk, she was wonderful. She knows all her gaits, lunges well, does halter showmanship, tacks up, etc. I essentially had to stop riding her right when we’d be amping up the rides.
What would you guys do on the ground with your horse if you were in my shoes? We have started teaching her to move using her hind, spinning on her hind, TONS of liberty work, etc. but I’m curious what others would do. I’m not a “serious” rider in English or western, just having fun training my first horse (with a trainer, I’m not doing this solo - and she isn’t my first horse, but the first one I’m training myself). She will be a family pleasure horse for trails and putt putting around the arena.
