I agree with Lizzy - I have a 2 1/2 year old Shire and he is well mannered and will wait. He was tied at the back of the stable until he learnt he would be put out eventually. I also alternate who goes out when, he may be first one day and last the next so it keeps him guessing when it will be his turn.

Kirsty you could always tie her up at the back of her stable before the others are led out and keep her there until you are ready. Our youngster hates it if others do things and he has to wait but tieing him up has made him realise there is a turn for him and he has to be patient.

thats the worst thing with youngsters manners, do the others get lead out or are they hearded out? as you dont want her to be a barger we have one and shes a pony bad enough, as the would push you out of the way, i always try to lead them out to turn out, otherwise they get to pushy i found that anyay good look

I had the same problem, getting on. Had a horse bolt when I was once getting on and it put the fear in me. Not helped by Mo not standing at the block. Now she stands so still and i've got my confidence getting on back.

Well done, I know how hard it is to overcome.

Mo's in a double link full cheek snaffle. Helps with steering and she's happy in it.
