Rydberg he said:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you run into problems, go<br \/>\nback to the basics, soften up<br \/>\non the way you ride him.\u00a0 Forcing<br \/>\nhim will make it worse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230;that&#8217;s Rule #1.<\/p>\n<p>Soften up, go back to the basics, and<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t try to force him because it&#8217;s akin<br \/>\nto dousing a fire with gasoline.<\/p>\n<p>As an example, if you&#8217;re riding a<br \/>\nhorse and you tap your leg on his shoulder<br \/>\nto ask him to move away from it&#8230;and he doesn&#8217;t&#8230;<br \/>\nthen thumping him harder, faster,<br \/>\nand gettin&#8217; mad will make it worse.<\/p>\n<p>So think back to Rule #1: Soften<br \/>\nup, go back to the basics, and don&#8217;t try<br \/>\nto force him.<\/p>\n<p>Think of it like this.<\/p>\n<p>If you didn&#8217;t get what someone was<br \/>\ntrying to tell you and they started smackin&#8217;<br \/>\nyou&#8230;do you REALLY think you&#8217;d try to under-<br \/>\nstand what they&#8217;re trying to tell you?<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t know about you, but if I was<br \/>\ngettin&#8217; thumped on and I didn&#8217;t know why and<br \/>\nit kept getting worse&#8230;I&#8217;d bite back.<\/p>\n<p>Never mind about trying to do what<br \/>\nwas being asked of me.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of J.J.&#8217;s rules he reveals<br \/>\nin his DVD.\u00a0 If you want to know more about<br \/>\nhim, click on the following:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/dvd-jjrydberg.html\" title=\"Get Your Own J.J.

What&#8217;s Your Highest Priority Training Problem?<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been around a while you know I keep asking this<br \/>\nsame question.<\/p>\n<p>You see, you need to figure out a plan for training your<br \/>\nhorses.\u00a0 Some things are just a nuisance and can be<br \/>\ntaught as time permits.<\/p>\n<p>But others are serious and dangerous.\u00a0 Not handled<br \/>\nsoon, you, your horse and others around you could<br \/>\nget hurt, maimed or even killed.<\/p>\n<p>For example &#8211; do you loose control of your horse when you<br \/>\nhead back to the barn?<\/p>\n<p>Does he bolt on you and take off and you can&#8217;t control him?<\/p>\n<p>That is very, very dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>So here&#8217;s what you should do:<\/p>\n<p>1. Do an honest evaluation of where you are with your training.<\/p>\n<p>2. List everything wrong that needs attention.<\/p>\n<p>3. List things you want to teach your horse for<br \/>\nshowing, trail riding, jumping, etc.<\/p>\n<p>4. Prioritize these, making sure you do the basics<br \/>\nfirst and then on down.<\/p>\n<p>5. Make a plan, take the top priority issue first, then<br \/>\ntrain and handle that problem and&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t Continue Until You Solve That Issue!<\/p>\n<p>6. Take each remaining issue\/problem and repeat.<\/p>\n<p>OK??\u00a0 A Simple, yet effective way to approach all the<br \/>\nissues with your horses.<\/p>\n<p>Get the most effective training plain in history:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/beery.html\" title=\"Jesse Beery Illustrated Course In Horse Training\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Jesse Beery Illustrated Course in Horse Training\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n*****************<\/p>\n<p>Ok&#8230;\u00a0 that&#8217;s it.\u00a0 Be safe around your horses!<\/p>\n<p>Charlie<\/p>\n<p>Read below what Steve R. says:<br \/>\n===================================================<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hello Charlie,<\/p>\n<p>Just like to thank you for the opportunity to buy<br \/>\nProfessor Beery&#8217;s training books. The information<br \/>\nand his years of experience he has put into it is<br \/>\ninvaluable and so easy to put into action. I have<br \/>\nbought a 6 year old gelding that was an ex-pacer,<br \/>\n(disposition 2&amp;4) and has lots of bad habits which<br \/>\ninclude chewing wood, bucking, bolting, shying\u00a0 and<br \/>\nnipping.\u00a0 Basically he was dangerous to ride.<\/p>\n<p>After a month using Jesse&#8217;s methods I now have a<br \/>\nhorse that is easy and pleasant to ride and is no<br \/>\nlonger dangerous and unpredictable.\u00a0 The other thing<br \/>\nthat is great is you can make the training equipment<br \/>\nthat he mentions and describes so easily and cheaply.<\/p>\n<p>The only thing I bought was a surcingle. I also have<br \/>\nlikely saved thousands of dollars for training this<br \/>\nhorse myself instead of sending him to a<br \/>\nprofessional trainer.<\/p>\n<p>I certainly will not be returning\u00a0 this book, in fact,<br \/>\na wild team of horses could not drag it from me.<\/p>\n<p>As for those that think this book is outdated I can<br \/>\nonly laugh at them, ha ha ha. I bet my horse will<br \/>\nbe trained before theirs.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for sending me e-mail tips and I thank you<br \/>\nonce again for this wonderful book.<\/p>\n<p>All the best,<\/p>\n<p>Steve Riddle&#8221;<br \/>\n==================================================================<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/beery.html\" title=\"Jesse Beery Illustrated Course In Horse Training\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Jesse Beery Illustrated Course in Horse Training <\/strong><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
