I do natural horsemanship with her and she responds really well. When I get in the saddle, though, she just puts her ears back and won't do anything I want her to do with out a lot of persuasion. She isn't sore or lame and I don't know if maybe she's just bored or something? Again, she only is like this sometimes, and the other days she is an angel so I don't really know what's causing this. Does anyone have any ideas on helping me with this? Thanks.
