I see the hierarchy at work every day with my 5 horses. I imagine the only way to not see herd leadership at work is if you keep your horses in individual paddocks. My husband definitely is herd leader over his horse (who is our herd leader) when he steps into the pasture. We practice The Method which is Clinton Anderson's NH training. It has completely changed our horses into willing partners and they dont expect treats to be handed to them for it. While I have checked out CT, I never really cared for it because I dont think I want my horses to see me as a treat vending machine. : ( Kim in MD ________________________________ On Jun 23, 2013, at 17:34, Rovena Kessinger <ro_k...@yahoo.com> wrote: > All that stuff about being "herd leader" is mythology Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw FH_L Shirts: http://tinyurl.com/8yky94l Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw FH_L Shirts: http://tinyurl.com/8yky94l
