My new boy comes home in two weeks, and I'm after ways to bond with him without riding for the first week when he comes home. Ideas?

Agreed. |

Ground work, yes. But also doing simple tasks like grooming, hand walking, and hand grazing can all be great ways to bond as well. |

I think people tend to over complicate it looking for loads of tips and tricks and special ways to bond with horses. There's nothing special about it, just work with him normally; balancing out groundwork, caring for him and riding him like you would any other horse. The bond will come naturally with time :) |

ground work and liberty work! this is great for building s solid relationship before working on his back. you will also get to know him better on the ground first which can give you insights when you're riding |
