Just a heads up, and this is nothing negative to the person showing us how to do this! However I tried this with my horse tonight and he was not nervous about any step leading up to me asking him to rock backward! And the moment I asked for that Little Rock, he very quickly figured out how to hop backwards with 3 legs! After the 3 try he reared up and turned into me, accidentally hitting his bent leg into my head. Yes I am ok but just giving a heads up to anyone else that is seriously inexperienced with training tricks and this type of training to be careful as I was not expecting this response or type of action from my horse, and this response for me could have turned VERY Dangerous very quickly. My horse was not scared or panicked about anything, as he very softly still picked up all his feet without any hesitation with the rope and by hand! he backed for me as soft as ever with and without the rope around he foot (not lifted) and behaved perfectly well for the rest of the evening with him! I have nothing negative to say about this video or training method. I was just caught off guard l didn’t want someone else ending up in my spot or worse. Because I was very close to having my horse come down on top of me.
Very well done, thank you!
Loved this!!! I need to try it after I watch your video 100 more times 😂
