Lunge With Ease

2. Horse domestication and horse riding
are very common these days. That’s
because horses make really good pets
and good companions. But there are
those who see more of these animals
and venture into horse training. Horses
are very intelligent and capable
animals. Like dogs, they are able to
perform tricks and put up a show for
people. Equestrian alone is a world-
known sport that involves horses and
makes them such important animals. A
horse, when controlled well can do a
countless number of tricks, including
the lunge. Lunging is when a horse is
made to walk in a circle around its
handler. It’ quite a simple trick but it’s
sometimes difficult when dealing with
a stubborn horse or someone who
easily gets confused.
Teaching a horse to lungecan be done
in a few steps. You will of course need

3. a lead rope tied to the horse, and a
bridle to cover a part of his sight if
possible, so that he will stay focused on
that circular direction you are leading
him to.
When all is ready stay in a closed field
with the horse and hold the lead rope. If
he moves a lot hold him by his mouth
to get some control. If you need more
back up prepare the whip. But don’t
hurt him with it; just use it to get his
attention. teaching a horse to lunge
will sometimes need such training
tools. Now pull the lead rope and make
him walk. Stay in the center and lead
him in a circular direction as if you too
are rotating. Keep going until he gets it.
Even if he makes half the circle give
him a treat and show him that what he
did was good. Do this repeatedly but
slowly so as not to get the horse dizzy.

4. Now that you know teaching a horse to
lunge can be quite easy if you know
how, it’s time you learn to teach him
how to halt, or lunge backwards.
