Tapping Faith

This is a very sensitive mare that I am working with and the Tap has been an amazingly wonderful tool for her. She stays down for quite a while and I think it's the only time she ever truly relaxes. Thank you Paul for this invaluable method!

You know, the biggest problems horses have are riders who don't know what the hell they're doing. You can pull a horse over on its back all day long, but when you ride and you're sitting crookedly or flopping around in the saddle or hanging on the reins, gee, guess what? The horse will freak out and 'be a bad boy.' How about just learning to ride correctly and make sure your saddle fits?

This horse by no means was a "bad boy". She as actually just a very timid and fearful mare, not naughty or bad by any means. TAPping her greatly calmed her nerves and made it easier for both her and I to work together. I ride many of my horses bareback and have never been told I "flop around in the saddle or hang on the reins". Thank you for your input though.

Speechless, absolutely beautiful..

I would not use this method to get trust. When your horse trusts you, you can convince him to lay down, one way is to hold a leg up and carefully ask him to lean back untill he bows, and from there gently push him down. Preferably done with a halter. Laying him down when he doesn't trust you won't gain trust. Might make him give up and be easier to handle, but not trust.

@Louisehellstrom Do you ride? If you do please let us know what discipline so we can send you some examples of disgusting.

Poor horses mouth! Discusting

i dont like this method. but that may be the way some simply wrestle his horse to the ground and sit on him laughing. the way you did it was gentle with minimal stress amd no jerking pulling and the horse was not in pain that i can see she was fearful at the begining and more relaxed toward the end. Good Job and thanks for doing it right
