We were fortunate enough to own one of his crop out sons Sonny Dee Bee (He had too much white and was registered as paint). Their babies and generations following are amazing riding horses. I have not had one yet that has tried to buck or go crazy when I have gotten ready to break them to ride at 2 years old. And I agree absolutely that horses learn better with patience, gentleness and understanding, while at the same time showing them where their place and your space is in a firm manner.<br /><br />Another trainer that we watch on RFDTV is Chris Cox.<br /><br />I have just sold a three year old filly that has been ridden about 20 times and is as quiet as can be, you would never believe that she hasnt been trail riding for years.<br /><br />Horses are very clever, and yes they each have their own unique personality (I have one I had to hand raise because her momma never got her milk in, and that is a problem because she is now confused as to whether she is a human or I am a horse and tries to treat me like a horse which can be a bit rough (I weigh 140 lbs and she weighs 1100 lbs). I am sending her to a trainer who I trust to see what he can do with her because I dont want to part with her but I need to gain her respect.<br /><br />Nice to hear you speak about these things, I just wish there were more people who had the same beliefs but unfortunately there are too many who dont.Lori Schmidt (LoriProPhoto)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01786227217137143996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-76978835101733939112007-01-09T17:24:00.000-08:002007-01-09T17:24:00.000-08:00Well, Cheri, I don't know about gods but they're g...Well, Cheri, I don't know about gods but they're great horsemen that's for sure. And while they may differ some in technique it's all based on the same principles. Not to mention that techniques can change from horse to horse due to the horse's personality. Horse training (or whispering, either) is NOT an exact science.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-49484382107332500802007-01-09T14:09:00.000-08:002007-01-09T14:09:00.000-08:00Ugh, of course there is no edit feature.

I use the methods they do. I've watched some of John Lyons training videos and agree with most of it. There are some segments that I did not agree with, but I hear from people that Clinton Anderson differs slightly in some areas. I have not yet had the opportunity to see any of his work.cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15019780921555076931noreply@blogger.com
