This message is from: GAIL RUSSELL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I hope I have not unwittingly portrayed natural horsemanship types as "old softies" or some such thing....movies like the Horse Whisperer and the talk of some of the NH gurus does get a little "woo woo" alright....but NH is not about letting horses get away with not working or paying attention.t
Which is to say that it is >the rider/driver who must set the limits of what is acceptable not the >horses. Everytime you allow the horse to direct the action you are >allocating him far more responsibility than he should be allowed to possess. >You know, "Give em an inch.."
