Ask and You Shall Receive

When you ride, consider what you are asking your horse and ask it in the softest way you know how. Listen intently. Speak little. Listen and Feel for the answer instead.

Every time you ask a horse to do anything for you it is a new conversation. Asking him to take a step is one conversation. Once that is done, the second step is a new conversation. Sometimes a single step is too much to ask and you may have to end the conversation with half a step or the beginning of the try to step. The horse is doing the very best he can. Take what he gives you. Hear what he gives you. Rephrase the question if he doesn't understand.

I seldom let the horse have the last word in any conversation no matter how brief. My last word is ALWAYS thank you.
