elizabeth Hendriks  I am constantly reminding my young horses to lead properly.  Every time I get on the end of the lead I want them in the right position.  I think this one is more of a lifestyle than a training session.

Saralyn Wallace That's too bad!  Navicular disease can be managed, though and doesn't necessarily mean she is done.  A good vet can recommend some treatments that will alleviate the pain, but to my knowledge, there is no cure.  I've dealt with many navicular horses in my career and used 3 primary types of treatment: nerve block injections, nerve surgery, and bute.  All of those treatments are up to you and your vet, but I would recommend you spend some time reading up on the disease and then talk to the vet about treatment.

Michael Minotti Nice work!  Having someone on the ground during those first few rides is not necessary, but very helpful.  Especially if the horse doesn't want to move off my leg.   My goal is to avoid kicking and spanking as much as possible in order to preserve the feel in my horse and having a flagger helps.  Just make sure the person on the ground understands when to stop flagging.  Good luck and keep us posted.
