Groundwork with Snoop-Part 6 A

I really hope that when you watch these videos you keep in mind that they are for lots more than just trailer loading. The training contained is key to having a well trained, well rounded horse. Watch the body language Snoop is using and try to figure out what he is saying. Remember that even when I am talking to YOU, Snoop is talking to me.

Watch after I ask him to back up. I comment that he wants to come forward. Why do you think that is? What do you think he is anticipating? Where is he trying to go?

I am training him even when I am not talking directly about it. Did you see that he didn’t understand how to move his hip but picked it up pretty quickly? Also watch how I just taught him that new ‘word’ and now I begin to use it in our ‘everyday’ conversations.
