Re: [IceHorses] Stuck in ground driving

[Janice McDonald]

be careful with voice commands, give them ones you dont automatically
use for other things...  I trained Stonewall that when I say "step!"
It means lift a paw in the air and "count", or wave at the air.  Then
when I bring a horse around to the mounting block I automatically
without thinking, to get them to take a step closer, say "step", and
of course that always puts stonewall knocking the step stool over
pawing at it, trying to stand on it like a pedestal, also with the
farrier, he says step, and stonewall throws that foot out there and
its dangerous sometimes!  You have to be careful what you ask for :)
