Une connaissance s'est fait marcher dessus par son poney, elle a perdu un ongle de pied suite à cela. Avez-vous déjà eu le cas où l'ongle n'a pas repoussé ?

Le jumping de Chantilly prend de plus en plus d'ampleur, cette édition a été superbe ! Savez-vous si la Global Champions League va continuer l'année prochaine ?
C'est tellement sympa de voir ses cavaliers de haut niveau concourir autrement qu'individuellement. Cela donne réellement un sentiment de cohésion et non de compétition entre eux.
Do you have tips to prevent a horse from rushing fences and on the flat?
Hello Mia!
If your horses rushes, it means that he has a balance problem, you need to make a lot of work to put his weight back on his hindquarters (shoulder in, half pass, leg-yield, haunches-in...) and a lot of transitions so that he listens to you and is more reactive.
You need to make sure he doesn't have any physical problems (check with your vet) because if he rushes, it means he runs away from something and try to jump in an easy way without using his back.
You need to make sure also that you are not encouraging this behavior by beeing agitated in front of the fence, keep calm and wait for the jump.
Some tips that will help you are to stop him before and after the fence (you can even make him go backwards so that he will associate rushing with lack of comfort). Don't ever go if he rushes, make a stop or a volte. Don't stay hang on the reins, he will take support on it and rush even more.
You can work with ground poles at first, with distended reins to make him feel comfortable and safe over the jump, when he is calm on i, then try to jump small obstacles with a ground line for him to settle his stride himself.
When he's calm on that, work on mechanization lines, it will force him to stay calm (you can even approach the fence on the trot to begin).
I hope i could help you, good luck with it :)
