In the past, I have forced horses to do things. I have lunged horses for hours, used tack that didn't fit, used tongue ties, used earplugs, let people hit my horses, used draw reins, yanked, kicked and felt let down by my horses 'poor' behaviour.
I wanted to share some of these experiences with you all and explain how I would mitigate them from happening now. Because I can't go back in time and change what I did, I might be able to help someone who listens to realise that there is a better way to work through these situations.
I genuinely believe that when these things happened, I was doing the best I could with the knowledge I had, and so were those around me. My intentions were good, and I loved my horses so much, I just didn't know of another way.
I hope that this episode makes you feel not so alone and inspires you to think outside the box and realise that you can help your horse through any situation you encounter.
