  • Its not mean, its necessary. That way they learn to respect you. After all, its not like she's physically injuring him.

  • the horse keeps coming back so obviosly its not that scared of her.. and its not like you do that whenver only when the horse starts getting in your space. it comes in handy when all the horses try to follow you out of the pasture

  • @animalwisperer Exactly! Two rear hooves in the face can happen quickly!

  • I tried that and she rear and knoked my horse hat LOL!!!!!!

  • horses are a lot like dogs lol!

  • Some horses react differently to this method, some will kick out, rear or bolt away or at you. Always be mindfull of this but always be the higher horse, if the horse finds fear he will try and be the higher horse. This method will work with most horses, and you should always encourage atleast 3 feet personal space. If your nervous about doing this in the paddock try over the fence and see how he reacts. All horses have their own personality so respect that like you would want them to respect u.
