Rubbernecking is a problem many riders face that is caused when a horse’s mind is not focused where the rider’s mind is. If left unchecked this can become a very dangerous issue, turning into bolting and runaways. In this video we discuss not only how to address and help horses with this problem physically but also how to prevent it mentally.
