 He gets excited. He opens the gate. He rushes in and you take the halter off and he runs. We want now that I'm done working with Creek I need to turn him out and I want to do it in such a way that he's calm and he doesn't get excited. Sometimes in the morning if he's in at night sometimes the feeders will take him out and he can kind of run off and so I want to see if we can work on this a little bit. I don't want this to become a build-up, a place of anxiety where he comes to the gate. He gets excited. He opens the gate. He rushes in and you take the halter off and he runs. We want to try to avoid, avoid that. Now if I just got him good with brushing at the gate almost like acting like I'm not turning him out but I'm just going to work with him here on the grass. You can see he wants to eat. He could use a little work with that but I might just brush a little bit and then maybe I get a little closer to the gate but instead of just opening it right up and going in maybe I hang outside of it for a little bit. See if we can brush a little. Now he's obviously looking at it and he's looking at his buddies who are off into the distance a little bit but I might just brush a little and then instead of going right in turn and maybe we walk away. In fact it'd be pretty interesting to just show him say hey here's a gate. Would you like to go in there and send him in have him turn around and then maybe I ask him to come right back, right back out again. So maybe I do a little a little ground work on my way to his paddock, turn, halt. See if we can get that a little easier. Good and try to keep him nice nice and relaxed with me. Now when I open the gate the way that this gate's orientated I'll stand on his offside on the right and it's great because he's sort of waiting and then I'll ask him to come in turn and we could come right back out. His other his other horse friends are further out in the field so that would work out great. So you could go in and out a few times. We could come in I guess I'll go out one more time because he got a little excited there. Wait we could wait out here come on in and send him through. You could do a little a little ground work in the paddock. If there's other horses nearby shoot the other horses away so you clear yourself a space a nice spot to work. But he's expecting to be turned loose and I'm not going to do that. We're just going to come right back out and I could even close the gate. Now I've made whole lessons of this where I'm able to work on ground work. I'm able to take the horse to the arena or wherever I'm going but then bring him back to the paddock to some ground work along the way and pretty soon they're not going to be anxious anymore because it's just another spot to work just like the ring would be or just like the arena or field or wherever you're going. Now he's getting to the point where he's fairly calm about it so we'll open up that gate we'll have him wait I'll ask him in turn now for a lot of horses that rush off you could reach up and you could put the lead rope around their neck. You remember when we worked in the ring with having them lower their head we could ask them to drop their head down I could always take them back out but he feels pretty good he's fairly calm but now when I drop the halter what I might do I might tip his nose towards me this is a little tip that a lot of people miss and that they don't do but tip them to you a little bit because they'll stay relaxed but as I drop the halter I still have the lead around his neck then I might tip his nose towards me a little bit more I'll slip that rope back keep my hand on the bridge of the nose and I'll turn and walk away and keep my posture low and I'm going to leave and I love that he stays with me you probably don't believe me that he's a horse that runs away but he does and good and now he sees his friends and I'll just sort of casually close the gate watch your nose there buddy close that gate and I I love that he stays there with me he's still focused that's excellent that's an excellent result now if I can only get that for the feeders and for everybody else that turns
