Clicker Training Icelandic Horses


Clicker training Icelandic Horses

Description by the owner: We were doing some more work on catching one of our remedial horses in the field, the video camera was running, and this unfolded totally unrehearsed. We enjoyed it and hope you do too.

New Year, New Icelandic Horse Paradigm



It's a new year; let's see if we can do better by our Icelandic Horses, and get rid of the nosebands, and the severe bits, and the bits that don't fit; as well as the heavy contact to force them into a frame to tolt.

"When we know better, we do better" - Maya Angelou

We know better now; let's take the next step and do right by our horses.

Thank you!
