0111_02

If your horse constantly fidgets and paws the ground while you’re trying to groom him, he’s telling you that you need to evaluate how you’re interacting with him and brush up on the basics. Behavior like fidgety feet, pawing, rearing and running backwards, can quickly make grooming impossible.

Clinton explains how to correct behavioral problems that come up while grooming your horse in the training guide, “Stand Still!” Throughout the article, he shares tips to follow to ensure that you’re not accidentally causing your horse to fidget or act out.
