Hi Martha,
what would cause a horse to wring his tail? He has no injuries & been on barrels 1 1/2 yr and seems to do it with every rider. do you have any suggestions? Thank You
Gail
Dear Gail,
Tail wringing is usually a result of something pain related. It could be one of a number of things: improperly fitting equipment, physical pain caused by sore hocks, stifles, ankles, etc, bad shoeing, confusing and rough cues being given by the rider.
