Here I am training a nine-year-old Paso Fino stallion, Vikingo, to be a safe trail horse. He has been a breeding stallion for almost five years now, but his current owners believe any worthwhile stallion ought to behave like a normal riding horse. By working him from a mare I'm riding and among several other mares, all new to Vikingo, I'm ensuring that he is learning to behave no matter what.
This is quick fear-based training pervasive particularly in western style training. It works but for an alternative that requires patience to be insistent, persistent, and consistent learn how to teach a horse from Basic Training for a Safe Trail Horse with subtitle of Eliminating the Fear Factors.
