Thank you so much. I have a young(ish) but very green and spooky horse. Whenever I go to the paddock now, he leaves his herd and walks up to me. I don't put the head collar on, instead I allow him to follow me to the gate and there I put his head collar on and take him out to groom and saddle up etc. He's still very spooky but we have established an amazing connection using the trust technique. I have only owned this horse since December and I am not his primary trainer by the way. I believe he knows I have his back and that he is safe when I am around.
