Challenge #8: Change up your routine

Just like you can fall into a rut in your everyday life or job, you and your horse can get bored doing the same exercise routine every day, too. That’s why this year, we’re challenging you to change up your routine and try something new with your horse. Not sure what to try? We’ve got a few ideas to get you started:

Take a lesson in a new discipline No matter what discipline you normally ride in, giving a new discipline a try can be fun, challenging, and help you and your horse develop new skills that you can incorporate into your regular riding routine.

Head out on the trails If you spend most of your days in the arena, consider heading outside the ring. Whether you just take a stroll around your farm or hit the nearby trails, you and your horse will both enjoy the change of scenery.

Try clicker training Clicker training can be used to teach a good habit or skill or behavior, or discourage or remove a bad habit. If you’ve got a horse who kicks or bites or doesn’t trailer load or moves away from the mounting block, all things we would consider negative, you can clicker train. On the other hand, if you want a horse to do some positive behavior like drink water, you can also use clicker training.

Whether you tackle one of these challenges or change up your riding routine in another way, learning a new skill will be fun and engaging for both you and your horse!
