So I went on a trail ride with my friends on Saturday. I decided to ride sunny as whimsy has never been on a trail ride before. So I asked my friend to ride whimsy so she could desensitize her a little while I could work sunny. So we did a lot but here is a list of some of the things that went a little wrong;
Sunny bolted
•
Whimsy bucked a lot
•
Whimsy jumped over a leaf and my friend almost fell off
•
My friend did fall off
•
Whimsy reared
•
Sunny ran away from me
^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^••^•^•^•
You may be wondering how sunny ran from home. So, pretty much I hopped off to help give my friend a leg up after she fell off. I just let sunny stand there as she USUALLY just stands there. When I got off everything went fine but when I went to get back on, sunny started to walk away from me. I grabbed her tail and as soon as I did she trotted. She started cantering and that caused whimsy to canter after her. I was in between two cantering horses when I jumped into the creek to avoid being crushed by whimsy. So, sunny thankfully stopped when she reached a little log that we had to jump over. So yea, that’s how she ran away from me and then rest of the stuff is pretty self explanatory.

So yea I added some videos of me riding and whimsy going through the creek for the first time.

Wow! Pretty horse! But you shouldn’t canter down hill, it’s pretty dangerous and your risking lots.

Your not supposed to gallop down, as a lot of people said.,. It can cause damage to your horses back

I don't canter or gallop down steep hills and we have done it before and the horses are fine

Ok
Wow that’s a very crazy trail ride :joy:
I really don’t suggest cantering your horse downhill, even if it’s not that steep. :)
It wasn’t down hill :grimacing: also I did not even plan on cantering.
