[RC] at the end of my rope.... - Ed Kilpatrickthat is very true about being able to "read" an individual horse. i kind of put them into "personality", or "horsinality" categories, like psychologists do with people. you have to pay attention to what the horse is telling you, and he is almost always telling you something.
that said, the methods i use are very generic, and so far i havent found a horse that doesnt respond to the same basic training program. i have had some folks tell me, "oh you have to use different methods with arabs, because they are so smart!" bull, the same things work with arabs, as with any other horse. they are no dumber or smarter on average than any other breed. ed
