Have you considered getting OUT of the arena and round pen?

This horse is telling you she isnt happy. Sure, she is having some respect issues, and she obviously has a hard mouth and an owner who probably isnt helping that, but if you get out more and put her in situations where she has to bend, flex and stop, she may stop pulling all together. I realize not everyone has miles of prairie, sage brush, sandy creek bottoms, rocks and gullies to ride in like I do, but surely you have somewhere to ride other than just the arena and round pen where you can take her out and walk through some trees, cross a few creeks, etc. You may be surprised how much more teachable she is.

Expect more from your horse, and you will get it

When I ride my horse I get to forget I have a brain injury

I was the daughter who wouldn't lift a finger in the house but cycled madly off in the pouring rain to spend all morning mucking out a stable.
