Listen Later

Hi All🌞🌎

In this episode, I answer your questions! The questions/concepts include…

How to help a head shy horse who struggles with aggression; working with a horse who is concerned about her herd + fine-tuning training backing up to get the treat; should we teach riders & trainers about intelligent disobedience (ID) + can/should you reinforce a horse for I.D.?; how to help a horse who gets anxious only in lessons; solving a yearling’s aggression toward people who try to pet her; what your options are when you have a lazy lesson horse; why could a horse be biting his blanket + could thrush cause aggression? & finally, is it normal to feel off about riding when you switch to +R training?

All covered & answered to the best of my ability in this episode! It’s a long one so tune in during your commute, errand running, stall mucking, or listen on 2x speed!
