Boy, have I been there. The first year I had
Gabriel he really kicked the heck out of my trailer. Once going down a
rough road to a CTR, the people behind me reported that my horse must be very
athletic to be bucking like that in a moving trailer. Didn't feel much
like a complement :)
Everything changed after I took some natural
horsemanship clinics with him (from a local guy who studied under Parelli for 7
yrs). He completely stopped kicking in the trailer at the same
time. It wasn't any specific thing that we'd learned, I really believe it
just changed the way we interacted with eachother and we were both
happier.
