January 11, 2024 Horsey Burnout
When someone say's "That horse loves its job" and "That horse hates [fill in the blank]".
How much of that is their genetics shining through OR the sum of their experiences while they did the thing they love or hate?
I'm sharing how I stay aware and make a conscious effort to make sure that the horse's sum of his experiences under saddle while in training is positive. So that hopefully he will enjoy or at least be content, performing his "job".

January 11, 2024 Not just "Sweaty Saddle blankets"
"That horse just needs sweaty saddle blankets"
"He just needs miles with sweaty blankets"

Variations of this phrase I hear all the time. Ill be honest....it makes my skin crawl when I hear it.

If that horse is spending long lengths of time and effort practicing things that make him upset and things that aren't giving him more understanding or meaning, he's going to end up a worse horse after all those "sweaty saddle blankets".

I've had a fair amount of these horses come through training. It takes way longer to undo the miles of "bad sweaty blankets".

Here's what you should be looking for instead of just "sweaty saddle blankets".

I explain why it is not in this episode and the 2 major things you can be missing in the application of this principle.
