GOOD HORSEMANSHIP CHILDCARE

Ross Jacobs
December 4, 2023
Clinics

I am extremely proud that my clinics are welcoming enough that mums feel comfortable bringing their babies and toddlers along for the day. I know that some parents can’t come to clinics because it can be difficult to access child care.

THE REIN BACK

Biomechanics

My question is, if a horse walks forward with 4 beats why does he walk backwards with 2 beats and not 3 beats?

If we were good at communicating in the language horses use with each other there would be no training necessary

LIBERTY TRAINING IS A MYTH

Ross Jacobs

Training

There is no such thing as liberty training. It’s a myth. All training imposes limits on a horse’s freedom to do whatever it chooses. True liberty training, where there are no restrictions on a horse’s choices, does not exist.

WHO UNDERSTANDS HORSES?

Ross Jacobs

Behaviour

Horses are an enigma for everybody (even if people don't know it). We can’t possibly know or understand everything that goes on inside their head. We can take a guess and hope we guess right sometimes. But we have no right or basis to claim certainty because we don’t know how much we don’t know.
