I have to share something. Hate me or Love me for it ;-)
But here's my opinion on horse training.
Humans tend to humanize animals - horses. One thing that is scientifically proven is that a horse don't have brain capacity to show: Dominance, disrespect, being jealous, being naughty etc. It's a big mistake Many people makes AND the horse can't read our body language.What makes people believe that a horse understands our body language? We are very different, as day and night. The horse has four legs, a tail, a mane, etc. We have two legs, our eyes are close together. Everything contradicts that a horse can understand our body language. EVERYTHING is about learning. It's not about respect!
Here's something to think about. And no I'm not mad. Just a bit annoyed that people don't want to open their eyes :-)
