First: What is the best way to teach a horse to trot well on the lead? It seems like I have to work really hard to get my horses to trot when I am leading. (Pulling on them constantly) They all lead perfectly fine at a walk and they are doing really well and setting up and standing for show. I have already tried carrying a lunge whip in my other hand and tapping them on the rear to encourage them to move out. They will usually trot out for a second then stop.
Second: I have begun to notice bot eggs on the legs of several of my horses. I always use my bot knife and get them off, but they keep coming back. I worm my horses every month. Is the worming not supposed to take care of the bot eggs? Or does the wormer only do its job after the horse has ingested the eggs?
