Dear Keith...

How would I get my horse to stand still when tied at the trailer? She will not pull back but she will turn her butt to be parellel to the trailer. She seems feel comfortable that way but she knocks over the buckets and is in our other horses way. How do I teach her to stand straight if I'm not at the trailer. Our other horse will stand straight but she is just on the go. Should I take her for a walk well I did and she still will swing her butt to the side. It seems almost like a self stim kind of thing.
