>>> Great videos! Just what I needed to see--I'm not as far along as you with my 2. Both of my horses won't step backwards in the Porcupine game when I use the carrot stick, only when I use my fingers. Plus they both seem to think I want to lunge them when I try to disengage their hindquarters.
Just keep trying and thinking about what you're doing. You'll get the hang of it. The little booklets are cool in that they have the trouble-shooting parts after each section. They cover a lot of "what if my horse does this instead of that." >>> It's going to take some practice before I feel more at ease with the games....my horses seem to tolerate me and accept my mistakes with good nature, though they both looked puzzled at times. Remember, the Parelli program wasn't my first foray into the NH world. It went relatively fast for Sina and I, but I'd had some similar experience, and she's just a regular Einstein. You'll be fine. I really do wish they still had the Seven Games video for sale as a stand alone item. It was really nice, just to watch each of the games. I'll try to get Cary to video us some more, sometime when it's warmer so I can actually move a little. Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]
