This is the second
session of working on
Companion walking with
Cinder. I have been
using some of Carolyn
Resnick's methods and
combining them with
clicker training.
Cinder is a 6 year old
mare who is of a
challenging nature. I
have been using some of
the water hole rituals
to calmly get her to
focus on me while at
liberty.
Cinder was also an
extremely mouthy mare,
but using clicker
training, positive
reinforcement, not
punishment, she has very
quickly learned that
there is more benefit to
keeping her head away
than in nosing for
treats.
