Question

I'm having problems with my horse..He spins around when i try to saddle him..then when on him he trys to buck

Answer 1

He hates you.

Answer 2

sounds like your Buck is cheating on you and trying to get around it by leading you on.. lol

try feeding it a carrot or so before mounting and saddling. should ease the horse.

Answer 3

sell him..........how much ?

Answer 4

Sounds like mayb  your horse has sore back =[   id recomend you get a physio or vet to come and check him out..

if there snt anything wrong  then he is simply being a complete brat and walking all over you.

if this is the case..give him in to trouble and dnt let him get away with i!! when tacking him up, u should carry a crop and give him a good old smack when he plays up ( in the opposite direction in what he is spinnin) give him  carrot or treat (watev) when he starts to listen to you...when you smack him tho , use your voice aswel and make sure that its stern and authoritive.  Whn he stops spinning make sure he knows hes being a good boy and eventualy he will learn that good will come of getting tacked up =] (  it might sond harsh the smacking but, but its not. any profesioal would tell you lol)

as for the bucking,(if not related to a sore back) just hang on =]. remeber your voice is one of the main riding aids. try calm your horse down.  if this doesnt work then im afraid to say a few smacks with your ridding crop is in order lol... he will probz not stop bucking ( depending on his age an past riders and his habits)  but atleast it'll make him a challange to ride =]

horses that buck are so fun!

so hae fun i geuss...and i hope nothings wrog with his back =[

katie xxxx

hope i helped a lil bit...

Answer 5

if this horse is trained, and not green broke, it could be testing you, don't give in and stay calm. when they don't let you put the saddle on lounge them to make the situation more uncomfotable for them than getting the saddle on. try again and if he spins again keep going through the lounging process.

idk what to tell u about the bucking, just to circle him and then go out on the rail and every time he trys to buck start circling him. he'll eventually learn it's not a good idea to make the situation difficult.

Answer 6

for saddling just stick a wall in front of him and to his side but there is also that chance of him then spinning toward tyou why is he spinning if u have him tied in the first place if he's tied all he can do is swing his butt and he might also not have been broke correctly.  Another way to do is this is just give him something to eat that way he's not paying attention to you.
