leads

Question
Can you give me tips on how to train my 9 year to get his leads over jumps? if you can that would be absolutley amazing! Thanks so much. I don't know if my age helps, but i'm 16 years old. Thanks again girl!

Answer
Dear sara,
         If he is an experianced jumper, or even not, go back to step one and try again and again.
         Place a jump so he can just step over it, and SLOWLY add a few inches, also try lead jumping, where you lead him on foot over the SMALL jumps. Horses need to practice just like people to become better.
