“Tattoos And Horses”
A while back, 26-year-old Samuel
Worlin was arrested.
For what?
Attempted armed robbery in Long Beach California.
Funny thing is, witnesses were easily
able to ID him.
How?
He had a distinctive tattoo on his arm.
It said…
“Not Guilty”
Not guilty?
He obviously didn’t think about the
tattoo leading to his conviction.
Personally, I’m not a fan of tattoos
unless it comes to horses.
Here’s what I mean.
The only tattoo I’d give a horse is the
one that goes indelibly into his brain.
In other words, when I want him to learn
something, I want it tattooed on his brain.
Let me tell you about some neat things
you can (and should) tattoo on your horse’s
brain.
Ever hear of Carol Jones?
Carol is fantastic horsewoman.
She got her training from the British
Horse Society.
She’s now in the U.S. and involved mostly
in eventing.
If you ever get the chance to do some
eventing, I highly recommend it. It’s fun,
challenging, and offers lots of opportunity for
you and horse to get so much better.
For instance, while filming Carol she
started off talking about the quality of your
horse’s walk.
Did you know your horse’s walk says a
lot?
Most people don’t know that – most don’t
give it a second thought.
But for Carol it’s like opening the door
to the horse’s brain and looking in.
Carol says, “Start with the quality of
the walk. Pay attention to it. What kind of
walk is it?”
What does she mean?
By asking what kind of walk it is you’re
looking to see if you could immediately ask for
a trot and get it.
Is it a walk we can get an immediate and
obedient square halt?
As Carol says, “Many of us don’t think
about what we have in the walk.”
And here’s the thing.
Carol’s knowledge doesn’t apply to just
eventing.
It’s a universal horse thing. It applies
to whatever you’re doing whether it’s trail, Reining,
ranch work, etc.
You see, Carol is paying attention to things
that others don’t know to pay attention to.

Here’s a for instance.
When Carol was having horses go over a small
jump she noted some were jumping crooked.
Most would think, “Well…the horse jumped
crooked. He screwed up his jump.”
On the contrary, Carol saw the problem happening
long before the jump. It’s something she saw no one
else did and it wasn’t the jumping that was the
problem.
This is an example of the kinds of things I’ve
been trying to teach over the years – and that is taking
note of things that happen that cause the end result.
In other words, many a horse owner try to fix
the symptom when they thought it was the problem.
Can you imagine making that horse do that jump
again and again and again trying to make him jump better
when the cause of the problem was “before” the jump?
As you can see, Carol’s got a mountain of
knowledge.
We filmed her several months ago and we are
releasing it just today.

That’s it for this one. Again – I apologize for the mistake!
