Why a horse says "no" - a checklist for riders
I receive the Holistic Horse email newsletter, and I love that the topics covered seem to coincide fairly frequently with something I've been wondering about or dealing with. This happened recently - as I've been learning to work around Bestie's pretty emphatic "no's," this week's newsletter contained a link to Kim Baker's Reasons for Resistance. Pain, fear, confusion and lack of respect - seems like a fairly straightforward checklist to keep in mind. And short - I like that - easy to remember when dealing with a horsey "no way."
