Today, I'm answering two questions about fearful horses. I'll discuss the dance I see between the natural flight instinct, training, a horse's speed of learning and accidental rewards.

What role does the riders' response to the situation play in future situations? What is a 1-second spook? Here are some new ways to look at a common problem.
