What to do when your horse says: ‘I don’t like that’…
In this episode I answer a question about a horse who doesn’t like going into the barn at the facility they board at. She wants to know how to handle it when her horse shows her he doesn’t like something. This is something we all have experienced at one point or another and I love that this question is being asked… It shows a respect for the horse’s feelings. I’ll talk about the need to recognize dislike vs fear, and some choices we have in addressing this.
