Have come to the conclusion dhorse isn't the brightest spark after all. I've never managed to get him to lunge. Tried him on a school surface (sand and rubber) and he rolls, drops straight down before you can do a thing about it, on grass he puts his head down and eats, and eats and eats... He is totally immune to whatever I do, even a good wallop with the whip. So, my mum hit on the idea of digging out our old pony's grazing muzzle, one of the old-fashioned bucket types. Well it was hilarious! I was laughing so hard watching him try to work out why he couldn't eat the grass, the look on his face was priceless. Mind you, it wasn't so funny when I was leading him in and he tried to clout me round the head with the bucket .
