New Video: Liberty Clipper Training part 2

Part 2 of Clipper Training without restraint. Here is another pair of horses, a mare and a yearling who has not had any experience with the clippers. Here I play off the "Monkey see Monkey do" effect that is strong in horses. This video shows how I get my horses to be comfortable with clipping without restraint. The foundation of this work is The Waterhole Rituals. This work is done before I introduce anything to the horse they may not like. It encourages trust and confidence. It is the horses idea to engage with me and therefore his opinion of whatever I bring is more curious then afraid. I don't recommend trying this without having the Waterhole Rituals firmly on your horse and if you do not enough experience. Be safe!

New Video! Liberty Clipper Training

This video is on working with a horse with clippers without restraint. I want to cause the horse to choose to be clipped. I am using Waterhole based methods here.
