O.K. I ride a horse and he's stubborn, but he listens most of the time, but when I was riding him last week, I wanted to gallop around the barrels(I've been loping them). So I asked for a gallop with a slight squeeze and I got a fast lope(canter), so my instructor told me to kick him, so I did. He just kept on loping, so she said to slap him on the neck with the reins and kick him at the same time(He rides hard-mouth), so I did that and he bucked every time I kicked him. How can I make him gallop?
Please don't say that I deserved to get a buck cause I was kicking him.
I do join up with him every time I see him and I hang out with him in the barn and paddock and stuff.
Thanks so much.
