I also recommend picking up a copy of Charles O. Williamson's "Breaking and Training the Stock Horse".

Expert horsemen all!! No denying it. Their mark on the industry has it's detractors though, I've seen first-hand the wrecks involved when novices read the book, watched the video, had the wreck, then loaded ole Thunderbolt & hauled him to the vet.

We need more info, seems like the horse might actually be broke ?

I'd be thinking saddle fit, hoof care, diet, water, scabbards, tie manners, hobbling, and the like.......
