Taking horses on walks with you helps a lot too. I take my horses hiking with me and on walks with the dogs. They love it!

If my horse was acting up like that I would quick jerks on the lead to get his attention. Then we stop and stand. If he moves upu bring him bsck to thst starting point. He may jerk away but quick consistent reminders that you are in charge will remind him. It takes time consistency and patience. Just keep at it. He bolts awsy because he knows he can with you

This horse will walk on the lead if he wants to. But also he will jerk out of nowhere and bolt, forcing you to let go of the lead rope. Or you get rope rash, at the very least. Right now we use a chain on him which works, but I don’t want to use it all the time.
