A round pen would be nice, but it is not a necessity. I started out doing clicker work with my horse in his stall, and I was outside the stall with a stall...

I've never used a round pen for clicker training. As a matter of fact, I
didn't even know that people used round pens to train for years. I always
trained my...
Hello Everyone: Recently, Vegas has started getting his tongue over the bit quite often. When this happens, he becomes so distracted with it that I have very ...
I have two 9 year old horses that have never been separated from each other and when ever they lose site of each other they start neighing and panicking. So...
My first thought is that perhaps it might be his teeth. Have they been checked recently or are they due soon ? The bit (not sure what kind you have) may have...
... Hi Teresa, Sorry if this is so obvious, but when did he last have his teeth checked? Also my guys are very itchy around their muzzles this time of year...

Hi! I have a stallion that likes to do that. It comes with the territory. Having a stallion is a big responsibility. The desire to reproduce is very high ...
Hi Chris, I'm assuming that your horse is relatively "operant", that is, understands the whole clicker game well. Also, you may have worked on "give to...
I would also check the teeth. However, I've never had a horse that could put
a tongue over the bit and couldn't get it back over on their own. Meg ... ...
It sounds like I have taken a very similar approach to Leslie. I teach him about being calm around the mares. I use head lowering as my main tool for that....
Hi Teresa, My husband's horse started putting his tongue over the bit when he was working with him. I am not sure what started it, but it became a habit ...
I find the rubbing his face after you take the bit out interesting. Is it always the same side of his face? I'm weird this way, but I might clean his bit up...

Rather than his teeth, might he have an injury to his tongue in some way? Perhaps something that occurred while grazing or nibbling on a horse treasure of some...
Hi Michelle, Vegas is part goat, so it's not out of the question for him to have an injury in his mouth. He will stand in tall grass and eat briars! He's ...
