My horse absolutely won't walk over ground or raised poles on the lunge.
He trots at them no matter how much you insist on walk. You can see his nostrils and face getting all tight and his ears pinning back.
He'll do it (grudgingly) with a rider on.
In trot, he's fine although does sometimes like to just canter or leap them.
Would you say that's a case of not seeing the point or lack of education...or more likely to be pain related? He is a very impatient sort who pre empts everything if his routine isn't kept really varied.
Just annoying as I'm trying to build his hind up!
