Playing Stay In Your Square

videoHaving fun playing a game of respect at treat time. I draw an imaginary square around each horses feet and each horse has to stay within their square - no leaking forward. If they do, they get sent back. Also, no dominance allowed between horses - no biting or kicking in my presence. If that happens, they get sent away. Watch my LBE Sparkle - the horse in the middle - he loves this game and gets it - rarely does he foul out by leaking forwarding or moving much at all. This is fun to manage the herd dynamics as well as teach them to read my body language and have respect. My 11 year old was taping and talking to me at the same time so I had to manage that as well :)
