I just got a new quarter paint pony 16 yrs, 14hands. I have been working with her in the turnout makin her run, and work. I put down the whip walked over to her told her how good she was and slowly started to walk away to see what would happen. She started to walk up next to my right side slowly passed me and walked directly infront of me cutting my direction and pushing me to go to the left instead very sharply. I thought this was cute at first, but now I wonder if its a power control thing. Can anyone tell me why she is doing this? And how can I stop her from doing this? I tried to gently push her face ithe other direction, but she kept trying to push me to the left instead by walking almost directly infront of my path. I would love some advise, and if this is an issue of control I need to get it stopped now.
