“Will Your Horse Fight Or Surprise You?”
How To Check If You’re In For A Fight Or
A Surprise Before You Ride Your Horse
How To Check If You’re In
For A Fight Or A Surprise
Before You Ride Your Horse
Danie Hewlett, a Reining Trainer and Reining Horse Judge,
goes through a process to check a horse’s mindset and
his “give” before she even gets on him.
Danie first lunges the horse by having
him walk quietly around her.
When she says “Walk”, the horse walks.
Not trot. Not lope.
Walk.
When she says “canter” the horse
canters.
And so on.
She’s strict in what she wants and you should
be too because it makes your horse better.
Next, she’ll look for stiffness and
soreness.
So when they lope off, they should do
it easily.
This tells you if they do it freely
where some horses will want to kick at you.
If they kick at you, that tells you
they’re not in agreement with what you want.
After loping them off, you can see
how they handle it. Some horses will fall out
of lead when you speed up, some will throw
their head out.
This just tells you where they’re at
in their training.
Always remember, check the horse’s other side too.

And some other ground things Danie urges
you to check are these.
One, have the horse walk a small circle around you.
Your more in his space. You want all
four feet to move and you want him to stay
soft in the face while doing it.

Next, push on him. Does he move sideways?
If so, that’s good. Some horses try to kick,
bite or run off.
Watch out for the kicking or biting.
When you push on him, you want him to keep
moving and moving sideways and then come back
into the circle.
Next, check that you can pull both reins and
if he backs up softly.
All this will tell you if you can take hold of
his face, turn him in a circle, move him with
your legs, and whether or not you’re in for a
big fight or surprise when you’re on his back.
All these are crucial to safely and
confidently riding a horse.

Please remember.
Check your horse before you get on to see if
he’s gonna argue with you or not.
If he shows he won’t, that’s good.
If he shows he will, then you should fix
that before you go for a ride.
