Not trot or lope&#8230;walk. (I might add the horse may need to get used to it being on his back first. \u00a0You can&#8217;t always throw it on and go.)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, once the tube is on, have the horse walk a calm, steady pace.<\/p>\n<p>As he does, watch for the inner tube to come off&#8230; because it will.<\/p>\n<p>As it starts to slip, the horse will notice it.\u00a0 That&#8217;s the horse&#8217;s cue&#8230;when it starts to slip.\u00a0 That mimics a rider starting to slip off.<\/p>\n<p>Then when the tube hits the ground, stop the horse.<\/p>\n<p>And once it&#8217;s on the ground around the horses feet, you want him to accept it and not freak out about it.<\/p>\n<p>You want him calm and cool about it.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because you always want your horse to remain calm and cool regardless of the situation. \u00a0That way, you don&#8217;t have to fight a thousand pounds of out-of-control muscle.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, it&#8217;s taught self control.<\/p>\n<p>When you get him doing this well at the walk then you can go to the trot &#8211; but not until then.<\/p>\n<p>Now there&#8217;s a little more to it than what I told you because words don&#8217;t do it justice, some things ought to be seen for clarity.<\/p>\n<p>But you get the gist.<\/p>\n<p>And if you haven&#8217;t yet seen Diana&#8217;s video, you might take a look at it. \u00a0To read about it, click the following:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/dvd-dianaq.html\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/dvd-dianaq.html\" title=\"Diana Quintana DVD\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>See Diana Quintana&#8217;s DVD <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want Your Horse To Stop If This Happened?
