Riding with Positive Reinforcement
This video is an encouragement for all that would like to ride but force is not an option: most horses can learn that riding can be fun!
Training Blog
Training examples and ideas, advocating for animal rights and stories from the forest horse.
Mounting Block Training
This is one of my favourite exercises when beginning to prepare for riding with +R. It teaches the horse that they have control over whether or not a rider will get on.
Working with Saddle Trauma
Bozza used to display signs of discomfort while saddling, but as soon as the rider was on he was happy. This is the first part of a series where I show you a way to counter-condition girth trauma.
Dreams really do come true
This was the best day of my life: galloping down the beach with my soul horse. I will never forget this day and I want to encourage you that anything is possible with positive reinforcement.
