Training Tip: Look for Your Horse to Improve a Little Every Day
When you’re working with your horse, remember that you’re not trying to perfect every single lesson every day; you’re just trying to improve each one a little bit. If the horse is doing better today than yesterday, quit – you’ve done your job. It’s time to move on to a new exercise. The worst thing you can do to a horse is to keep drilling on the same exercise until he absolutely hates it and gets a bad attitude. Work on an exercise, make it better than yesterday, and then quit.
