This the DANGER of a TALENTED horse: TRT Podcast - Episode 12

In this episode I'm diving into the world of training talented horses.
It's easy to take their abilities for granted, but rushing through exercises without a proper preparation, and the right explanation of all the steps, can lead to issues later on.
Take flying changes for example. While a less talented horse requires careful steps like perfecting transitions, it can seem quite easy and effortlessly for a talented horse.
The danger in this?
Without groundwork, also the talented horses can struggle when expectations rise.
The same goes for trailer loading. A horse may load smoothly, but without the right explanation of the entire trailer loading process, they might face challenges later on.
So whether it's a flying change or trailer loading, it's best to treat all horses with equal attention.
It's really important to explain each step to set them up for lasting success! 💪

This is such important advice, and so often exactly the endless loop of discussion I have with clients. They will tell me that another trainer said they were sure horse XYZ could surely already do ZYX, and I why I am not giving it a go. So we, the people teaching horses, should ALL scream that off the roofs of wherever we happen to be!;)

Laughed out loud when you said …. Nowhere is not a place. It is just a place that you did not recognize yet. Brilliant!

Very interesting. It reminded me of a horse I had when I was not very knowledgeable yet. My horse some how got the message of what I wanted but I didn't even know myself exactly what the aides should be. So everything was fine until it wasn't. I wish I had at that time someone as experienced as you to explain what happens psychologically in the horses mind and body.

A very in depth explanation of the difference between getting them to do it, and teaching them to do it. Outstanding!!
