Is your horse cold-backed?
Cold-backed is a term used for horses that range from not being completely relaxed at saddling to those that buck like broncos when you mount.
Like to learn more?
The cold-backed is often an example of a horse that has been rushed through foundation training or is simply lacking correct foundation training. Another cause of this behaviour is, of course, pain or discomfort. Join the Kandoo Community to learn more about why your horse behaves in this way and what you can do about it.

Kandoo GOLD Course
Kandoo GOLD is a fully comprehensive step-by-step guide to training or re-training your horse.
The course begins with understanding how the horse learns, the use of reinforcement training, and how it applies in everyday situations on the ground and under saddle. It then moves on to teaching advanced behaviours such as lateral work and flying changes.
