Wow a warmblood!! Thats amazing! They are really good dressage horses too. Is it your own horse? I have only had my horse for about 3 months so im still having troubly with the whole dominance problem. She just doesnt care about anything I tell her to do on the ground, and doesnt respect me yet. My friend is helping me with alot of natural horsemenship stuff so hopefully that helps

He's not mine yet. I would like to buy him someday. We've been in training for the alst two years for jumping and I just feel that we aren't communicating very well. I think dressage would help him move better and help our communication.

I'm starting to jump, but I really want to steeplechase (racing and jumping all in one for those who did not no.) I know it's dangerus and I don't if my parent will let me, but I still want to do it.

Hopefully that helps you! It is never too fun when you and your horse arent communicating.
^And yes that does sound very dangerous! I would be too afraid to do it. I would never want to get hurt, or even worse my horse

It's a bad thing if your horse is becoming dominant...even dangerous. I think there is still time to put her in her place.

But with english you have to keep the horse in the bridle, and there is just soo much to do. Its so fun though! Weeziey if you have any questions about english feel free to ask! Maybe we can help you a little if you cant find anyone around you 
LOL I 'm so into barrels that I won't go to a comp yet because I'm so scared I'll mess up on my barrel horse , thats a rocket with legs. Thats one thing that if I do start riding English I will miss. The power. The power you feel when you come up to that first barrel at full speed and glide into you turn with the up most control.

Yeah. She isnt dangerous or anything she is just really disrespectful, and its gets really agrivating cuz she doesnt pay attention. This usually only happens when I lunge her. When I ride she is fine. I just have to keep her attention cuz she seems to wonder off alot  She is still young too, only 5, so I have many years to work on that
^I have never done barrel racing. I would be too scared as well, I wouldnt want to mess up and hurt my horse. My horse wouldnt be able to do it anyways cuz shes not good with tight corners

Oh well you might want to wait a while. The person who runs the club can't always find time to get on AU so it might be like a few more days!

My last lesson on my horse was absolutely terrible. We changed to a kimberwick and now he has excellent brakes so he kept stopping in front of the jumps. I'm just getting very frustrated. Like you said hobbit_fan, I need communication aid.

Weeziey wrote: Oh its not that bad you actually take very wide turns. I always get yelled at for not being at least four feet away from the barrels and for not passing the barrels before turnin. What actually really hurts is pole bending because you have to point you toes in so you don't catch the poles and doing that and kicking at the same time hurts! What it should look like_ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G6ck6JCzyEhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41UaY2fQpcQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMkBfTDScNg
Thats very cool! I would like to try it someday  I was actually going to buy a previous barrel racing horse, but when we got the vet check done he had alot of bone fusions in his legs, which would lead him to having problems with arthritis. And he was only 6!  I was very sad about that...
And Shadowfax'sLastStand like Weeziey said the person who made this doesnt come on often, but once she does she will probably add you
Im sorry about that Linwe. I dont really know your horse, but im guessing hes stubbourn? Does he stop at the jump because he doesnt want to jump, or is he scared? I have one horse at my barn who is terrified of jumps. I guess all I can think of doing is to keep pushing him and maybe use a crop? What did your trainer say about it?
