Jigging
What do you do if your horse constantly jigs on the trail, trying to go faster than you want? Don’t add to the problem by pulling back on your reins, trying to force him to walk. Instead, put his feet to work and get him to pay attention to you and be on the same page. The more you move his feet forwards, backwards, left and right, the more he’ll relax and use movement constructively not irrationally. Making more work and expend unnecessary energy than needed by repeating the area without continuing with strides. Eventually, the horse will realize that walking on a loose rein is much easier than having to hustle his feet.
