In this episode, we started chatting about Fonz, a horse under Michael’s guidance who’s still hesitant about approaching a tarp at times even when he's quite confident to go over it.

That reluctance sparks a fascinating exploration of equine vision and how it shapes a horse’s confidence. We unpack the quirks of their eyesight—think blind spots, the difference between 20/20 clarity and near- or farsightedness, and how vertical perception (up and down) might throw them off more than we realize.

This made me thing of Mowgli too and my suspicions about his vision clarity in a way I haven't noticed on any horse before.

Are horses contextualizing textures and like we do, or is it all about trust in what they can’t quite see?

Join us for practical insights and unexpected conclusions that’ll change how you approach your next tarp challenge—or any spooky object in the arena.
