Advice for Training my horse in Natural Horsemanship?
I have an 8 year old Shetland/Quarter horse cross gelding he was around 5 or 6 when he was gelded and he is very annoying. If you do not whip/hit him, he always thinks he is in charge, biting, lashing out. I don;t hit him, pat him, and I’m as gentle as I can be. He is always in my space, and I can barely walk him in a straight line without being bitten. I would like to train him in the ways of Natural Horsemanship, but I need some advice. Can anyone help me?!
Joining up with him, and doing round pen work should help a lot. Get a trainer who can help with these things too. Sometimes you have to be forceful to be gentle if you know what I mean (though you probably don’t). Joining up, and making sure he knows you are boss at all times are best. And you have to make that connection to him, that he trusts you, but also believes that you are the head of his herd, no him.
