DOMINANT BEHAVIOUR & OVER AROUSAL ON THE GROUND
REHABILITATING A COMPLICATED SPORT HORSE
•
33m
Zeppy's first training session at The Heart Of Horsemanship revealed just how over aroused he could get around touch. It became clear just how many of his thresholds had probably been crossed when starting him in his ridden career, so Mia took things right back to basics on the ground to start building connection with him, set spacial boundaries and work through some of the triggering stimulus for his over arousal. Mia also demonstrates how she uses the mental pressure of a flag to interrupt disconnect, and cause him to seek her.
