[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 690817, member: 11791"] Cedar! I didn't know you actually RODE! I'm impressed. Sometimes, the horse doesn't do what we "say", because we are not being clear. Other times, the horse doesn't trust us, because of our body language. If WE are stressed, then they are stressed, and if THEY are stressed and can't trust US, then THEY will "save us" from all sorts of perceived dangers. Trust comes first. And trust when under saddle is based partly on past experience with you (and others), and partly on whether you can be trusted right this minute (calm dominant). And yes. I wish I had been able to do the whole horse thing as a teenager. It would have made me a better parent and a better person. [/QUOTE]
