I thought of this because in the 90s I tried to teach a horse to stop whinnying at a horse show by backing. He just said, "Oh, if I back, I get to neigh." And he'd back up all over the place on his own. Agh! <br /><br />I tried teaching another horse that balking leads to circling, which is more work than going forward. That horse just chose to circle, on her own. Circling was preferable to forward. Agh!<br /><br />I am sorry she's trying that trick but you seem to have outsmarted her: )lythahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01719586193059362084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459505622378142466.post-30715510163266191982016-07-03T09:57:21.512-03:002016-07-03T09:57:21.512-03:00I will remember the phone anoalogy when I walk wit...I will remember the phone anoalogy when I walk with Samson, who behaves just like Carmen did.
