Halters!

 Oh boy! Here comes halter training! Some of these pictures may look a little rough but it is a work in progress. Nothing hurts the horse, it is simple pressure and release. I take a step forward and apply increasing pressure on the lead rope, as soon as she takes a step forward I release the pressure. Horses learn how to avoid pressure, so why not teach them how to avoid pressure while doing what you want them to?
 She mainly tries to avoid pressure by turning, but she is doing quite well and is getting the hang of it!

This horse is so smart and she amazes me everyday with what she can do!
