How to keep your pony calm?

Question

my pony is really hyper going to shows how can i prevent this from happening im hearing lunging is that a good tiP?

Answer 1

lunging is great to get stress out. other things you can do are bring him to shows and just hang for the day, try to get him accustomed to just hanging out.

if he is super hyper and stressed, some people would consider a herbal remedy or something like Quietex, which will level him out without making him drowsy.

also, i sing to my horses. they love it and it relaxes them.

you should also remember, if you are tense, your pony will be tense. remember, you are his leader and you need to convey to him that you are not upset and remain calm and relaxed. if you have problems with being tense or stressed, ask a friend or riding instructor to help you out. NEVER be afraid to ask for help when you need it :)
