Wow!!

Beautiful photos!!! I am totally amazed of the collected power he shows....

thank you all for your great comments, I am very proud of my wonderhorse!
My Parelli instructor said Beau was a funny horse, but that he was by far not as good as Brutus. Well if only he could see this!
It reminds me of something I read in my friends savvy times, a left brain (confident) horse is always right, you should not punish him but reward with treats. It really changed everything, only the instructor still believed that you had to get dominant over such a horse and therefor punish 'wrong behavior', but then he would not do anything, he would even run away!
I think in time Parelli will evolve towards AND more and then more and more people will get more and more great results with their horses!

Well that is the problem with all those systems out there:
It can never work for all horses and when it does not work for some horses they say the horses is no good..

Therefore the only 'system' that is within AND is that the whole system applies different for each horse's needs

What is a leftbrained horse?? I wonder if I have one too? Vilja becomes a statue if punished, but will work nicely for treats. I also did get the warning of clickertrain her - she would become dangerous was my message... Well, they could not be more wrong - she has become a lamb.....

a leftbrain horse is a parelli word, it means that your horse is confident and even a bit dominant, because the left part of the brain is the thinking part.
The right part of the brain is the part which is about inborn quality, instincts, so running in case of the horse. Those are the unconfident horses, the horses that are scared and not sure about themselves

then you also have extravert which is an exuberant horse, a horse that moves a lot, and there is the introvert, a horse that is more inside himself

and those things make combinations

Thank you... I have two or three leftbrained then - and one rightbrained... One of them is maybe a little in between....

oh Barbara the pictures are really nice! but your horse is bigger the my little Romeo

ahh and you a lot of parelli?! so I am! With Shir Khan I go to a lot of PNH clinics and it was the best thing what I can do with him!

and Romeo profit from all my clinics

first Beau had to show off his cordeo, then I arrived... So he was waiting for my attention








then we started playing










then we practiced some cordeo work




some running (no pics there) and finishing with some scratching




great day

Great cordeo!

I can understand why he felt the need to show off.

Ooo, you really hit a good itchy spot on his back! Thanks for sharing!
