25.01.2022 3yo brown colt George is for sale at a knock down price of $600 due do a change in circumstances, health and move which is forcing us to drastically reduce hors...e numbers. Exceptionally quiet, easy to handle. He will walk up to you when called to have halter or bridle on and lifts up all four feet with ease. All the work is done re the final riding, which has only not been done due to my husband incurring a medical issue in the past six months. At Loveday in the SA Riverland See more

24.01.2022 IT'S NICE TO BE NICE TO YOUR HORSE I often read that you shouldn’t pet your horses or take them treats. Sounds strange to me. Surely you want to be nice to yo...ur horse. Surely you want your horse to come to you. Surely you want your horse to like being with you. Just because you’re nice to your horse doesn’t mean that he can do whatever he pleases. It doesn’t mean he can push over you or chase you. You must always have rules and you must always be consistent and reinforce your rules at the appropriate time. If you’re consistent, your horse will soon learn the rules and then he’ll be able to relax. Neither you or your horse can ever relax unless you’re consistent. - See more at: http://bit.ly/2aW6yMA See more

12.01.2022 HORSE BEHAVIOUR vs HUMAN BEHAVIOUR When undesirable horse behaviour occurs, the natural human reaction is retaliation dominate the horse, show him who’s boss,... teach the horse ‘respect’. You must overcome this natural human reaction. When things go wrong, you must stay impartial and neutral. There’s no point getting upset or thinking the horse needs punishment. There’s no point making excuses by saying the horse is mad, highly strung or it’s in his breed or he has a special personality. - See more at: http://bit.ly/2gZsJ6n See more

08.01.2022 OR HORSE HERDS AND PECKING ORDERS Some trainers would have you believe that the reason your horse doesn’t respond correctly is because he thinks he’s higher in ...the pecking order and he doesn’t respect you. The biggest problem with this theory is that it assumes your horse knows what you want him to do. It assumes your horse knows when you want him to trot a circle, or canter off, or change leads, or perform a roll back or whatever. Horses don’t automatically know what you want at any stage of their training. Everything must be taught one step at a time. - See more at: http://bit.ly/2aqZ6FT See more

06.01.2022 THE RESPECT MYTH A horse doesn’t think, I don’t respect this person, so I won’t do as he asks. I’ll push over him when he’s leading me. I’ll kick up and resis...t when he rides me because that’s inappropriate. I know what he wants but I’m not going to do it. A horse has no understanding of good or bad. He doesn’t know what we think is appropriate or inappropriate. When a certain response relieves pressure once, he’ll use it next time. If it works again, it’s reinforced in his mind. If it keeps working, the horse will keep using the same response. - See more at: http://bit.ly/2ajLBN2 See more

04.01.2022 The problem with horse training is that society is set up to believe that you can buy a service and have things the way you want in a certain time frame. People... look at horse training as if they're spending their money on a product. And yet even the best horse trainers will tell you the horse takes its own time, and no one can guarantee a horse will be doing what you want from it when you want from it. The other problem is that even if your trainer can get t done with your horse, it doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to. Getting a horse right takes an amount of commitment on the owners part to develop the same type of relationship that the trainer has, otherwise how can you expect from your horse for yourself what your trainer gets, when it's they who have put in the hours, the sweat, the patience and the desire to get Along with that horse? You aren't spending money on a tune up for your car that you can take home and drive. The fact that money is involved leads people to believe they deserve something for what they paid, and they do, but, it happens in the animals time, not the humans. I think any good trainer would say they would do this for free if they could, just to help horses and people. And yet, we all have to eat. -words by Amy Skinner Photo is of Ray Hunt. See more
