Hello, I hope this is not too off-topic, but I just wanted to give Sharon Stokesbury and Karen Musson a huge thank-you for a fantastic clinic here in Minnesota...
Thank you Hannah. I would like to add my very sincere thanks to Karen Musson for her generous and sincere nature. This was Karen’s second visit to Minnesota...
ON page 104 of Leslie's and Bill's book, Bill says that you should not jerk on a horse's head. He says that the rapid pull and release (to me this means...
That's a good question. Today my pony is in heat. She gets definite ideas about where we're going on these days. I ride with a bitless bridle. When she starts...

... I don't think there is any way to reconcile the two. I found THTF because I was becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the new approach to "natural"...
Hi Diane You ask about your mare having other ideas about where to go and you ending up in circles and so on. I had the same issue for years. It seems to me...
... Well, it doesn't seem to me that jerking on a halter rope is the only way to get a horse's attention. You can get their attention with a sudden movement...

I once saw Buck Branaman do this in a clinic with a horse in the snaffle bit.. page 98 Bill talks about firming up with the horse, this is what you could do...
... Doubling your horse, which Ed Connell in Hackamore Reinsman uses to get his horses attention. ... On pages 98 and 99, Bill & Leslie describe a smooth, firm...

I am reading THTF and am already to page 204 and have already read the glossary. I am also listening to the cd set, only to cd 3 so far. I have a mare who...
Kristine, It seems to me that your mare might think you want her to run around the pen until she faces-up to you. Since you did not mention her background,...
... Yes, I wasn't suggesting that the firming up wich they were doing on page 98 was doubling or a hard pull and slack..Somebody posted earlier that that is...

.....my mare becomes very disturbed, tensing up, not paying any attention to me, nickering. I'm not sure what to do about this. I took her in the round pen...
Yes, there is a great wealth of information to be found, that is why I myself did not yet post anything. But I always do enjoy the new input there is, when...

You could try in the roundpen to just be all calm at the outer edge/fence (where your mare was running along). When your mare is not running around, while you...
In this situation i would bring a second horse up and tie it with hay nearby for a number of sessions. It seems to diffuse the situation so the horse can get...
