🐴 Most people feel apprehensive when they start a horse under saddle.
The last thing they want to do is actually get on the horse’s back, because they’re worried he might buck.
So they spend days and sometimes weeks chasing horses with waving flags and flapping tarps.
They saddle horses and drive them in long reins or pull them around with a lead rope, thinking this will help to control them and help them to accept a rider
How, I don’t know.
Flapping a tarp or pulling a horse around on the ground doesn’t relate to sitting on his back.
Most people think that horses have to get ‘used to’ the saddle, saddle cloth, girth and bit.
Trainers say, ‘Just take your time.
Let him look and let him sniff. Let him move around if he wants. Don’t make a drama.’
So the horse is allowed to sniff the saddle and the saddle cloth.
Next, the girth and saddle are ‘sneaked’ onto the horse’s back.
While this is going on, the horse is allowed to move here and there, and to look around whenever and wherever he chooses.
Trainers say the horse must ‘work it out for himself’ and deal with all the new items as he (the horse) sees fit.
This is the human viewpoint and maybe it sounds sensible and logical to most people.
Let the horse take his time. Let him look. Let him get ‘used to it’.
If you use this approach, you are in fact telling the horse to focus on all the new items.
You’re telling the horse, ‘here’s something that I’m worried about and I think you should be worried too.
It’s going to be very frightening for you to have a saddle and rider on your back. I know, because I’m frightened about getting up there myself.’
This approach is all back-to-front from a horse’s point of view.
It’s actually much easier to mount a young horse ba****ck for the first time, than to have him accept a saddle and girth.

🐴 Lots of trainers say that the best thing to do for shying is allow the horse to stop and look so he can see there’s nothing to worry about.
Some trainers even allow the horse to approach slowly and sniff the offending object.
It’s also said that if you flap things around your horse, he’ll get ‘used to’ flapping objects and won’t shy at flags, banners, umbrellas etc. in the future.
This thinking is flawed because horses don’t reason in this manner.
Allowing your horse to stop and look, or approach and sniff things won’t stop him from shying.
And neither will flapping things around him.
When you’re in the middle of a dressage test, you don’t want your horse to stop and look and sniff the judge’s car or an arena marker or a flower pot.
When you’re half way around the second peg in a campdraft, you don’t want your horse to look at the banner flapping on the fence.
When you’re riding down the road, you don’t want your horse to stop or move sideways every time he sees something new.
At some point, every horse will want to shy away from a noise or something that he sees in the bushes.
He may want to stop and look at things that ‘worry’ him.
When your horse does this, his concentration goes away from what you want and onto what he wants to do.
If you allow this to happen, your horse will soon learn to stop and look and shy whenever he feels like it.

🐴 Horses aren’t born with an urge to bite or kick or push over their handler.
Horses learn these unwanted behaviours through inconsistent handling.
They don’t suddenly start biting or kicking or pushing over you for no reason.
There are a hundred little steps that lead to a horse learning these unwanted behaviours.
To avoid teaching your horse undesirable behaviours, you must have strict rules and discipline every time you’re with your horse.
You must always be definite about what you want your horse to do.
And most important of all, you must discipline yourself to concentrate on your horse at all times.

🐴 People often say “but my horse doesn’t like having his head rubbed”.
I know this is true in many cases.
No horse likes having his head rubbed when he’s first handled.
Every horse will be worried when your hand first comes near his head and ears.
If a horse doesn’t like having his head rubbed, it means that he’s not truly relaxed and confident.
Some people never take the time to overcome this.
Their horse never truly relaxes around people and always worries when a hand comes near his head and ears.
It’s up to us to teach our horses to accept a hand around their head and ears.
Every horse will learn to enjoy having his head rubbed. It’s up to us to teach them.
After a couple of twenty minute lessons, each horse learns to relax with me and learns to enjoy having their head rubbed.
This is the most important lesson you can teach any horse.
Without this basic lesson, you don’t have anything to work with.
