to "one rein" lift the "naughty" shoulder...hehe...I dont know if you followed me thru all that, I can prolly explain it easier if you called...but that is one way I would describe that topic....hope that helps and good luck!!!
shoulders....the shoulders being laterally unbalanced can also cause hollowing of the back as the shoulders run away from the backend as well...the shoulders get too far ahead of the butt and drop the midline down which also causes the head to come up....so back to the main topic....picking up a dropping shoulder....rather than "picking up the dropping shoulder", I want you to think of "squaring up the shoulders " so they fit more in a rectangle boundary rather than get them all bent while tryin
this "dropping/leaning" shoulder by "lifting" it....they angle their inside rein kitty korner across their body in an attempt to lift it when in reality, they create a worse imbalance, and/or, the opposite shoulder problem! So they horse is constantly bouncing back and forth in its lateral balance and usually brings the head up to support...whether the horse just flat out sticks its head up or whether it starts to bob its head, both are symptoms of the same root problem, laterally unbalanced
that is what I call an unbalanced set of shoulders....so when correcting a "dropping/leaning" shoulder, I pull that outside shoulder back toward my body to bring it back underneath me...when that outside shoulder pulls ahead of the inside shoulder, it elongates/lengthens the whole outside of the body....which gives the feel/impression that the horse is leaning on its inside shoulder...when in reality, its become the "shorter" side by an unbalanced portion of length....too many people try to fix
@riderideride72 hello there....well, in all honesty, I look at a "dropping" shoulder in a bit of a different way than most....so see if you can follow me as I try to explain a whole different angle...think of the left side of the horse as one lane and the right side of the horse as another lane on a 2 lane hwy going the same direction...now, picture 2 cars driving sided by side....that is what I call balance shoulders....now, picture the outside lane car pulling ahead of the inside lane car...
Thanks Julie, at the moment I don't have any doubles, though I do get one through here on occasion. I have some nice paints that have started coming through here....I'd have to look at what is for sale. call me or text to remind me when I get back from paint world
Hey acast......thanks for keeping me focused on some of the important details...hehe...I get so preoccupied with making and uploading the videos that I forget some of the important details....the owner's asking price is $9500 OBO....these guys are extremely fast learners considering how far theyve come in a 3-4 month period...with the right riding they'll be showing by spring...

How do you encourage a horse to lift his shoulder?
