We have all been there! You see poor behavior from your horse that you know needs to change, but instead of dealing with it, you make an excuse.“I don’t have time to work on this.” “We need to be working on our performance goals, not this.” “That’s just how my horse is.” “It’s the adrenaline.” “Any horse would do that in that situation.” Today we challenge ourselves and our listeners to let go of our excuses and take responsibility for our horse’s behavior.

Hobbling can be a dangerous venture if not done right, but so can driving your car, riding your horse, and saddling a horse for the first time. By using the right processes, you can hobble train your horse safely and effectively.

On the other extreme of this debate, we have the idea that horses should never be put into stressful situations at all. In the middle, we find a
