Question
Iam helping a friend break and school a 4 yr old tb x irish draught. 16.1hh mare.is there anything i should take into consideration while schooling.is there anything different you need to do.

Answer
Hi Jo!

I cannot give training advice to non-owners of the horse in question.  Training is the sole responsibility of the legal owner.  Any interference, no matter how well meaning can lead to hard feelings or worse a lawsuit.

I can say in the broadest of terms though, if you feel in over your head about a training issue, perhaps to the point where you are writing into an Internet format for advice, maybe you should reconsider your abilities and goals.
