Re: RC: excitable horse

[sharp penny <penelope_75647@yahoo.com>]

   Teach him to lower his head on demand. A horse
can't be excited when his head is down by his knees.

   When a horses head is up his excitment level will
build. Have you ever seen an excitable horse with his
head down and neck stretched out and relaxed? For some
reason, if you can get him to drop his head and relax
his neck, he will calm down.

   All you do is teach him to do this on cue no mater
whats going on around him. It's very easy to teach but
takes lots of repetitions, some times weeks or months.

   Most people are impatient and don't want to invest
the time it takes, they would rather find a quick fix.
I just don't know of any quick fixes that work in
pressure situations. Once trained this one will work
100% of the time in any situation.
