I’ve been working with him for over six months. I essentially restarted him because he had so many holes in his training. I used the snaffle bit basics series to help with this. Lately, we’ve been working on roll-backs and smoothing out setting up the lope and transitions. I don’t see any changes in his demeanor until I am mounted. I did notice lunging yesterday that for the first time he was dragging his right rear toe a little at a trot to the left. No resistance to trotting, but a slight drag. He did have a little protest when trotting right but got over that quickly and no toe dragging. Thanks much.

Richard Boatwright I do take him out on trails and am getting him introduced to cattle slowly. Based on yesterday I made an appointment for a vet check.  He's dragging that foot a bit more and has a pretty good chip in his hoof from doing that.  Think there's something going on with right rear leg. The bit chewing/ constant mouth action is back without me even touching the reins.Â
