I agree!
Stop “clinicianing” your horse to death.
Word on the street are these horses are the most dangerous ones out there.
And guess what? They are!!!!!! They are dull, lifeless, spoiled, reactive when they wake up and usually only the most skilled horsemen can fix them with tough love and some enlightenment of what real work is about.
How does this happen? Too much unnecessary handling that bores a horse mentality. It’s rewarding too early for half ass try. It’s not reprimanding when a horse acts out in bad behavior.
One of the best mentors said “less is more” but the wise man did NOT say coddle your horse!
I said what I said.
