Gaining Respect and Control On The Ground – Series II

December 17, 2012 by John Leave a Comment

Jessie and I have completed the second of Clinton Anderson’s Downunder Horsemanship groundwork series, Gaining Respect and Control on the Ground. Neither one of us does all the exercises perfectly. We work on them at every opportunity and groundwork is a great way to gain your horse’s respect.  The Gaining Respect and Control on the Ground dvd’s are laid out very simply and easy to follow.  I had virtually no horse training experience – as you might be able to tell – and still was able to teach my horse quite a bit.

Also, we are finding that videotaping your work is a great way to improve our horsemanship skills. We had almost 40 minutes of video we condensed down to 10 minutes, so some of the exercises go by quickly and are only shown on one side. Keep on working with your horse – It will pay off.

Gaining Respect and Control On The Ground – Series I

December 17, 2012 by John Leave a Comment

Jessie and I work through the first eight exercises in Clinton Anderson’s Downunder Horsemanship Gaining Respect and Control on the Ground, Series I, DVD. This is the video that started it all back in 2007. I wanted to know if a regular guy like me, who had a limited knowledge of horses (and no knowledge of horse behavior) could utilize a learn-by-watching-dvd system to train a horse without killing himself. It turns out it can be done. We followed the methods described on the videos as closely as we could and Jessie became a solid, respectful, and safe trail horse.  The Clinton Anderson Method is laid out simply in these dvd’s.  We simply started at the beginning of Gaining Respect and Control on the Ground with exercise 1.  Once we felt we had accomplished that we moved on to number 2.  Before long I had a trusting quiet horse and learned a great deal in the process.

The Importance of a New Veterinarian

The Importance of a New Veterinarian How important is a newly graduated veterinarian to an established practice?I worked as a animal care technician in the 1970s and was lucky to see a few new grads added to the practices I worked at. They always brought a new energy to the practice, not to mention new styles and techniques. The established doctors gave them the experience of working outside an academic environment in exchange for the latest in … [Read More...]
