First, we should make sure that each horse has no "forbidden" places. Touch the horses and seek him all over his body. If you are unsure of his reaction, use a carrot stick, your "extended hand". So you stay at a safe distance, even if the horse will be the beginning of the fight back. Prohibited eliminate space by touching them primarily to the nearest places where horse touches still tolerate and occasionally, casually approaches the forbidden zone and immediately go back again. Later the horse will suffer more and longer touch and soon this place will lose quite problematic. When playing most importantly our body language - be relaxed, smile, look off the horse. You should not have a horse in any way pose a threat. All you do is set the beat.
That is a certainty for the horse - he knows what movement will follow. Now, in a similar way to continue with your tools - leash, halter, carrot stick ... We start at a greater distance, the horse will not feel so threatened, as if you wanted him to touch immediately. Horses who do not know the game, you must give more information somehow "explain the rules." Therefore, it is in motion, stop yourself and even reward him for that end unpleasant activity. The horse will soon understand and begin to "play for yourself". If the horse can touch anywhere and neprchá from objects themselves, can add to the intensity - gently slapping the horse, waving it around, etc. It is important to cheat -don´t go quite around horses so we did not disturb him by accident. do not be afraid of the horse to move. If the horse can move, continue to play the game. when the horse stops. we stop playing. It is important to put the horse needs and requirements of reasonable dose gradually.
Some horses also have a fear of a certain object - plastic sheeting, plastic bottles, whip ... our most important weapon is patience. If the horse is, before the rhythmic motion of running away, but it is pushing on you, it is a mistake to lack of confidence, but respect! The basis of success is not to build the "bit" with a certain subject, but on principle. The principle is a universal rule that applies in all circumstances. it does not matter if you hold the carrot stick, seat, plastic sheet, or broom. Principles horses understand and believe in them. When one realizes they will follow them at all times.
