he bites,<br \/>\nkicks, rears or bucks. \u00a0He won&#8217;t come to you and you can&#8217;t<br \/>\ncatch him in the pasture. \u00a0He won&#8217;t let you pick up his<br \/>\nfeet or he won&#8217;t stand to let you groom him or put<br \/>\non his saddle.<\/p>\n<p>He won&#8217;t walk, turn or stop right. \u00a0You jerk, kick,<br \/>\npull, scream and get frustrated. \u00a0Now the horse is even<br \/>\nmore confused and doesn&#8217;t have a clue what you want<br \/>\nbecause you haven&#8217;t learned enough to know how to<br \/>\nget him to move properly.<\/p>\n<p>Sound familiar to some of you?<\/p>\n<p>When the horse gets frustrated with you all he<br \/>\nknows to do is try to remove the pressure, pulling,<br \/>\nand frustration by rearing or bucking you off. \u00a0That&#8217;s<br \/>\nhis defensive action.<\/p>\n<p>What just happened is natural for the horse but your<br \/>\nlack of understanding and training sees this as<br \/>\na &#8220;bad horse&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Sound familiar? \u00a0Ever seen this before? \u00a0Are you living with<br \/>\nsome of those issues right now?<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes we have to come to the realization that the<br \/>\nproblem is with us, not the horse. \u00a0Gulp!<\/p>\n<p>Anything worth doing is worth doing right. \u00a0If you don&#8217;t<br \/>\nhave control of your horse then you&#8217;re skirting danger.<\/p>\n<p>I know this &#8211; a 1,200 pound horse which has lightning-fast<br \/>\nreactions and enormous strength is a time bomb waiting to<br \/>\ngo off, even with a trained handler or rider.<\/p>\n<p>Do me and yourself a favor right now &#8211; if you&#8217;re not<br \/>\nwilling to learn how to handle that horse correctly<br \/>\nand safely, and train it so it&#8217;s safe to ride, then<br \/>\nplease get rid of it. \u00a0Don&#8217;t put yourself and others<br \/>\nin harm&#8217;s way. \u00a0Statistics show that you&#8217;ll get hurt<br \/>\nand many times it will lead to broken bones, concussions,<br \/>\nor worse.<\/p>\n<p>That may sound harsh but it happens way too often. \u00a0If<br \/>\nI&#8217;m the first one to tell it to you that way and it<br \/>\nkeeps you, others or even your horse from getting hurt,<br \/>\nthen I&#8217;ll do it.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s sort of like the new couple who are blinded by love<br \/>\nand don&#8217;t see the train wreck coming in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Seek out those more experienced and trusted who have<br \/>\nproven themselves and listen to them.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are some that want to sell you a magic potion<br \/>\nthat would solve all your horse problems in a few days.<br \/>\nRun from them. \u00a0Seek other help. \u00a0Experience and insight<br \/>\ntake time to learn. \u00a0It&#8217;s true with almost any skill.<\/p>\n<p>Horse training is no different.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a huge truth about horse training that you<br \/>\nneed to understand:<\/p>\n<p>Over half the problem is with the trainer and not the<br \/>\nhorse. \u00a0Until the one doing the training understands<br \/>\nhow horses learn and know how to get the horse to start<br \/>\nproperly acting on the commands over and over each time<br \/>\nwhen asked, then nothing is good is going to come<br \/>\nout of the training attempts.<\/p>\n<p>You MUST understand the nature of the horse, how his<br \/>\nbrain works and how he learns.<\/p>\n<p>Know this: the horse already has all the ability to do<br \/>\nall the basic stuff you want it to do. \u00a0It&#8217;s up to<br \/>\nthe trainer to teach the horse each command and act<br \/>\non it properly in a controlled fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Let me state that again so it sinks in:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The horse already has all the ability to do<br \/>\nall the basic stuff you want it to do. \u00a0It&#8217;s up to<br \/>\nthe trainer to teach the horse each command and act<br \/>\non it properly in a controlled fashion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So, how do you get there you ask?<\/p>\n<p>You study, you watch others do it successfully and<br \/>\nlearn along the way. \u00a0It doesn&#8217;t happen over night.<\/p>\n<p>Tell me any valuable skill or trade you have learned<br \/>\nthat didn&#8217;t take quite a while to learn or master.<\/p>\n<p>We have assembled various resources to help you and we<br \/>\nhave never sugar-coated or &#8220;hyped&#8221;
