HCD Performance Horses

I’m a big believer in “when the horse does exactly what you want without a fuss, get off and remove the saddle.” It’s important for the young ones to understand pressure and release. The faster they learn that, the more easily you can teach them new maneuvers.

Dexter did amazing today and did everything I asked. I reward with lots of pats and removing the saddle as soon as I step off. This guy is going to make an amazing show pony!

"A lot of what I do with training horses is asking them to be accountable, and I just stay out of their way. But in order to make them accountable, we first have to be accountable for our own moves and actions. Often times we are so busy making the horse be correct, but what about the rider? If you are going to train a horse, then train them to do their job and stay out of their way." — Kari Brough
