"I like to get the products you use to train your new horse."

 
 

Dear Keith...

Wednesday, January 10, 2007

I like to get the products you use to train your new horse. I just bought a barrel horse I going to make my pleasure horse. I done some training and hope that this guy and I can bond together. I plan to do ground work first to back and move out of my space. I want to teach him to bring his head down when he rides. I know I have till spring to do this so I am planning to at least try. I like to purchase a video on your ground work and the with the flexing of the head and body one. I been watching them or rfd tv. When I am home. It looks great and I know I can do this. I broke horses in the past and worked a lot I like to find more ways to make them good horses always. The last horse I broke was ( large pony) and I did it in three days and is still broke. So I know I can do this.

This is called "The Clockwork Exercise" because you need to imagine four very large clocks, one underneath each of your horse's feet. When your horse moves any leg directly forward that leg is "stepping on twelve o'clock." When any leg moves...

Suggested Article: "Keys To Improvement"
How many times do you think you've ridden your horse? A thousand? Five hundred? Just guess. What if every time you got on, you improved something, no matter how small? If you could just see some little improvement for each of those thousand...

Suggested Article: "Three Step Stop Exercise"
"When you've mastered this exercise, the cool "upshot" is that if you're riding your horse, and his body is in the wrong position to pick up his lead, for instance, (maybe he's all "splayed out") then you can simply pick up the reins and drive him...
