I was inspired by Tik this weekend and decided to give clicker training a try with my horse! My timing wasn’t perfect, but overall he really enjoyed it and picked up target work super quickly. It even helped him work through a spook—over a hula hoop, of all things! By the end, he was confidently touching it and clearly proud of himself for earning a click and a treat. We’ll definitely be doing more of this!
I've had a very memorable moment this week, and I'd
Iove to tell you about it. I've had my new mare Skye for only 3 months. She usually trots over to the gate when she sees me--or at least she walks over-- but this week after I hadn't been to the barn for 3 days (my husband has cancer and was hospitalized, so my plate is very full), Skye full out galloped over to greet me at the gate! My heart just burst!
Way to go, Tik! Will next year be a threepeat?? What an honor and so well deserved!
We want to hear from YOU! What have you learned on NF+ that has helped you and your horse improve? Have you had any break-throughs or memorable learning moments? Share your pictures, videos, and success stories here!
Good day! I just have to say that Tik is rocking the jeans and boots! I am here learning and rooting for your great connection with your horse!
I watched part of it. Are the sessions recorded to watch? It was so interesting.
