Your most valuable training tool

Everyone looks for a magic fix to ‘cure’ their horse problems.

Plenty of people will sell you a ‘magic’ halter, stick, lead rope, bit or some other contraption.

None of them will really help.

No contraption ever invented will teach your horse to be relaxed, confident and ready to learn.

I’m going to tell you about the most valuable training tool available in the world or any other large  place.

It’s free and I’m going to reveal it at no cost.

Priceless!

It’s as simple as rubbing your  horse’s head.

Yes, give him a rub and show  him that it’s always easy  and pleasant to be with you.

Your horse will learn that whenever he brings his head to you, it will be a pleasant  experience.

He’ll learn that when his head is with you, he can ‘switch off’ and relax.

He’ll learn that nothing bad happens when he has his head with you.

Horses soon learn to enjoy having  their head rubbed.

I do it with every horse for their entire life.

It  doesn’t matter if he’s a few days old or twenty years old.

If you can’t  rub a horse’s head, neck and around his ears, he isn’t totally relaxed and confident.

Whether I’m catching a horse for the first time, starting him under saddle or re-training him, my first step is to go to the horse, rub his head and show him it’s easy and pleasant to be with me.

It’s  pointless to try and lead a horse, handle his legs, tie him up, saddle him, ride him or do anything else if he’s frightened.

Confidence and relaxation are the keys to teaching your horse, no matter his age or  stage of training.

Take time to rub your horse’s head, neck and around his ears every time you’re with him.

You can’t overdo it, so there’s nothing to lose and absolutely everything to gain.
