This is going to sound a bit strange but, one of the best ways a horse owner can eliminate and unwanted horse behavior, is to make it your idea. At first thought, this might not make sense. But as you move along in your horse training you’re going to find out that “reverse psychology” works very well, when training horses. When a horse does something you don’t want, steal the thought from him and make it look like you’re asking him to do it. Pretty soon the horse is going to loose interest in the bad behavior. Horses are kind of like teenagers. Here are a couple of areas where this idea can be applied. Your horse puts his front feet in the trailer, but won’t go any further: If your horse won’t get in a trailer, steal his thought by asking him to get out of the trailer. For this to work, the timing has to be just right. So you want to just casually ask him to walk into the trailer and note how long it takes him to start backing out. If its three seconds, then walk him into the trailer, and you ask him to back out at 2 seconds. When we take an idea a horse has and make it our own, and act on it just before he does, he’ll start to see us in a leadership position. You can’t catch your horse: One area where this technique works really real is when trying to get a harness on a hard-to-catch horse. A good way to work with a horse like that is to walk away from the horse, instead of chasing him around.
