Many owners love their horses so much that they tend to humanise them. Although this sounds like a lovely idea, it is not good for the horse, or for the horse-human partnership.
A horse needs to feel like a horse in order to feel confident in himself and to feel secure in the relationship dynamic of you being the respected and trusted leader that he can look toward for guidance.
As animals of prey they are wired to look toward a leader for boundaries and when to move their feet. This is the role the human takes on with their horse to create a safe partnership, that can take you out on a trail, to a stressful competition, or into a small dark trailer without any issues.
You’ll often see me use the "Changing of the Eye" exercise with horses, this is a very important tool to work with, you’ll find out why near the end of this video.
