Horse Training is one of the most important aspects of developing your animal's character. With so many methods available, choosing the right way to train your horse can be a real challenge.
Horse whispering is a genuine training method that uses eye contact and body language as its main focal points. No physical contact is utilized in this "gentle method," as it is called. It uses the animal's natural drive toward socialization to gain its trust.
Open Training
In this method of horse training, the trainees are presented with what are termed "learn-learn" situations. Useful in dislodging undesirable behavior, this method provides the horse with two options: the one the trainer wants it to learn, and the one that usually requires more work.
Common Problems
Following is a list of common problems experienced by horse owners and solutions for them.
Some horses gain the bad habit of chewing the wood of their stalls or fences. Not only is this destructive and potentially expensive, the horse can get colic from the splinters. In order to prevent this, cover all the wood with metal edging. Also, provide the horse with plenty of roughage.
Constant pawing is a sign of bad behavior that exhibits lack of training or frustration. To combat this, make sure that the horse is not rewarded for bad behavior, be careful that it is not pawing during feeding time. Also, frequent workouts with consistent handling will help.
Biting can be a very dangerous habit when dealing with an animal that has large teeth, no matter how tame it can seem. If your horse playfully nips at you for attention, rub his nose until you are convinced that he has had enough. However, when dealing with a horse that lunges at you, crack him with a foam bat or rope within two seconds of the incident to deter him from biting.
