I just love your humor. I lived in California many years, now I’m in Alabama. Whole other horse world here. While I’ve had horses all my life, I can always learn something new. Now being middle aged, stupidity hurts more. I want the most effective, fight free, training nowadays. The goal is to not get in a wreck and hurt my parts.

Very good clarity of teaching me the human. It is just the time it takes, not personal. Your are the best visual and verbal horse - speak language teacher for me . Thank you . Val

" keeps the human from running around like an idiot" 😄. Good lesson. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

I am thankful for you and Pat

That is a really smart colt, especially when he realizes how to get out of his own way. Very nice. I was a kid once and everything was "stupid." "Stupid chickens, stupid cow, stupid horse and on and on..." As a much older guy and a life time complete with a few visits to the ER, I realize the animals weren't stupid, but I was! Amazing how smart a chicken can be if you take the time to watch, learn and apply what you learn to get them to do what you need them to do every single time! 'Course the same goes for horses and cows. Much harder with people though. 😉

Good info, it doesn't matter if its kids, dogs, or horses they have to be taught how to learn. The ability to seek out the right answer based on Yes that's correct or No thats wrong. A horses desire to hunt the release is taught from the start lesson #1 Baby or 10yr nothing can be accomplished or learned with out learning how to Learn first.

Very nice to see your method

Like your style from the high plains of South Dakota

Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍

He's such a cool horse and he is growing like a mushroom ! A real beauty and a credit to you . Very best wishes from UK

Glad to hear someone else does not like the "stick". When are you going to have a stick when you are on a ride? A better training method is to teach the horse to respond to your body language. Once the horse learns to respond to your body language, it will respond much better when you are in the saddle.

Pat this is a. good series and a great idea-- break it down -- , Best of luck and please stay safe Pat and Deb.
