Horse Training

What if my horse doesn't like to be caught? If a horse doesn't like to be caught, the worst thing you can do is catch it. You want to have quality time with your horse. The first step is to walk to the horse bodly. As you walk, keep your halter in front of you and in the horse's sight. If the horse walks away, it's ok. Then twirl your rope toward the horse and chase it off. Next go to the center of the horse's circle. Some horses will pace up and down the railing, when this happens try to make the horse pace around you. Just let the horse run around you until he notices you. Once the horse has notice you it will curve its body to the inside of the circle. The point of the horse moving around is to allow it to learn and pay attention to you.

Once your horse has let off some steam, step in front of the horse at the halfway mark of the circle. Make sure you have enough space between you and the horse. As the horse is coming around, he will be pointed straight in front of you. Once he is walk slowly backwards, this encourages the horse to come to you. If he doesn't come forward the first time, then repeat the process. Itr make take a couple of days but eventually it shall work.

Horse Training

Today I will be discussing the first step in training a horse. First you walk up to the horse talking so he knows where you are. When he stops and looks at you, pause, then pet him if he lets you. If he runs away let him don't chase the horse. Once the horse has let off some steam, he will notice you. One way to start a trusting relationship is to use this exercise listed above. This exercise is to also have fun while establishing trust.
 The biggest thing is your first impression. You want to be confident and calm while trying to catch the horse. One sign of you being scared the horse assumes it is in charge instead of the owner. First impressions can send good messages or bad ones to the horse. When approaching the horse have the halter and lead rope beside you in plain sight. Walk with the attutide that the horse will stay in his spot. This will encourage the horse to stay. You must have trust between you and the horse otherwise you never will.

Introduction: Horses

The topic I choose to inform you about is horses because I  break, train, and show horses in many events. I am qualified because I have been taught how to ride and lead horses. I shall be using a critical eye and review the performance of other contestants worldwide. I will be upbeat and perky for people who know very little about horses. I will try to be funny by telling a funny horse story that has actually happened. I will be writing in 1^st and 2^nd person. I believe I will have enough events to discuss for the time needed. I will also be discussing how to break your horse as well of the different events that you can be involved in.
