I have just started putting in to practice some of the techniques explored in this series with my horse. He's not particularly outwardly reactive or sensitive, but I can already feel a stronger bond forming. Today he chose to spend time with me in the field and visibly relaxed when I spent a few minutes being present with him. Since I've had him (two months) he's begun offering to voluntarily put his head in his halter (he would previously throw his head up whenever you approached with the halter). We did this through positive reinforcement with treats, but I'm sure he was also tuning in to my 'ask' as he is curious and eager to please. Very excited to see what else we can achieve now that I have more awareness of how to listen and invite co-operation! Thank you for this wonderful, easy to follow course!
