@crazyforhorsesgirl12 try using your energy. like, stay calm and put out your energy. it sounds wierd, but it works, trust me:) good luck! :)

It would be great if Parelli would combine Natural Horsemanship with Natural Hoofcare. If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you have always gotten! That is also very true for hoofcare.

but not with whisper?!?! she is a very smart horse she knows what i want her to do its just a matter of doing it she is very testy and knows whats asked its just her mind set saying "i know what you want me to do but you can't make me do it" i just dont know what to do about her!

[rickprettyman]

also im watching were you should't have to tie your horse up but im afriad if i don't she will spook at somthing and take off? i would love to try and trust her but i have already and she kind of ruined our trust i just got her a year ago so she is really connected with me like my other horse my other horse is in full trust with me and i can ger him to ground tie anywere and i could go inside my house for a while and he would still be there and i have had him about a year when 1 could do that

[rickprettyman]

I have a 6 year old paint jumping mare and she is the laziest horse but at the same time she is super spooky and and freaks out when she leaves the horses or they leave her! She can be disrespectful to me a lot of times also when i ask her to move to another gate she throws a fit tossing her head down and flickering her tail but she does pick it up when she doesn't i back her up is that right?? She is a sweet mare but very head shy and she doesn't back up very well! HELP ME!!!!

@ParelliTube Okay where I was going was..the 7 games. To get your horse to slow down at the circle, is to 1 have a rope halter, 2 have a long rope (like a light boat rope that has life and therefore communication capablilty). after you master the first 3 games with your wonderful pony, go to whats affectionalty called the "yo-yo" game. Here you teach your horse to back up using a concept familiar to their natural instincts ( they play it with each other all the time in the field) I can tell you

[86Horsechick]

@86Horsechick It not only teaches your pony to back up, but to slow down as well. I will happily post more later.

[86Horsechick]

@crazyforhorsesgirl12 Ooh. I can help. First of all give yourself a huge pat on the back for seeking out help! You came to the right people;) I have a few recommendations: First let me proudly introduce to you the concept of the (7 games). This is going to be a very long so I will stop here, and continue later. Umm,please don't take this as invasive, but do you have an e-mail account/ Parelli Connect account. I can talk to you easily thoruhg either of those. This limits my words amount. sorry

[86Horsechick]

@crazyforhorsesgirl12 This a tipical problem with lunging. I would recommend not lunging her at all, but rather do whats called the 'circling game' ;). Its far more affective and unlike lunging its NOT boring. Little things like haltering with savvy can make a differnce too. If your horse likes to have the halter put on, then she likes to be with you. Therefore, she will like to come "in" when you ask her to at the circle. Please Feel free to ask questions

[trishlambert]

How about my left brained introvert? The one with his tongue stuck out at me! Will this process work with him, or is there a variation?
