I always have the reins in my hand while hitching. I know my horse will stand and as minimor said practice, practice. Everyone learns a different way. Pick and choose what you feel comfortable with your amount of experience. What I did while training my gelding is to make him stand and...

I was taught as Rabbitfizz said. Never tie a horse while being hitched. Even in our driving club it is frowned upon to tie a horse while putting to cart and unhitching. It takes practice and once you have formed a routine your horse will get it. Safety always first.

I have the harness from them. It is beautiful!

Sorry no pictures yet, but as you can tell everybody has an underbite ;) You can still use a bit. You just have to work on her accepting the bit and it will all come together. Sorry so vague but there is alot of great advice here.

Congrats!

My gelding has a severe underbite and he drives, eats fine. His teeth are checked every year and I think as long as you are aware of your horses habits you should be fine. I will try to post a picture.

Very good!

He is adorable!!

I had that problem with my gelding last year. He was on a bagged low starch hay and a quality grain. Baffled, I changed to a baled timothy/orchard mix and started using a slowfeed hay net. So far it has worked.

Made me smile! Thank you! Emmy potential!!

I was watching too and poof! What a fun class!

I think is sounds reasonable. I have a miniature schnauzer and it was $45 for him. Since I clip my horse, I now clip him myself. He looks great and I have people said great clip on your guy! Makes me feel good as I am not a professional!

She is very cute! Love that big eye! So sweet!

It is a blast we have had some little competitions with driving club. Everyone has the biggest smile after them!!

Nothing wrong with having a pasture pet! Keep your stuff doesn't cost anything to just let it sit there. Just enjoy life!
