Horse Problems

Almost every day someone contacts me about a " problem horse." Often such letters come from someone who had been warned by someone else about ridding themselves of " that dangerous horse" or something similarly worded. The  links shown to the right are to letters from people who have had baffling horse problems that they (and everyone they know), simply could not solve.

Do you have a similar horse problem? Look over the latest list of recent horse problem letters and select any one of them to see if there's a solution to your own horse training problem!

Several decades of working with innumerable problem horses has given me a wealth of experience that I am delighted to share with horse owners. It is for this very reason that I created a " Problem Solving Series" of videos to provide answers to the most vexing of horse training problems. Still, phone and email consulting consume a good part of my day. Throughout this growing list of horse problem letters you may well find the answers to your most difficult challenge if not, let me hear from you and I'll do my best to help you out!

Remember: Make the right thing easy and comfortable for the horse. Conversely, you must make the wrong thing difficult and perhaps even uncomfortable. Most importantly, have your plan and " ammunition" ready. You must react immediately when the unwanted behavior surfaces. If the horse hits the " brick wall" several times, he'll probably stop trying. Above all, be fair!

In the Spirit of the Horse,

Frank Bell

Frank,

Thank you truly for taking the time to come over, it was truly an honor. I feel truly blessed. After viewing just a few of the videos, I see where I would have been months ahead of the game, and better prepared for your visit. That's okay.

I now understand the three T's, and can truly perfect your technique with Nala & Owahee (the paint/pinto yearlings) prior to advancing on to the older ones. Ginger "my big project" she's actually moving along beautifully. I've got hands back on her. I switched the shoot over to the other side, where she was pawing the ground, and it made a wealth of difference. That appears to be her comfort zone, and it outsmarted her a little. I've got the ropes on her, and my husband has agreed to leave "all the horses alone". (That is huge in itself)

I switched to my left hand with releases, as my right has so little feeling from the nerve damage, that I can feel a huge difference with the releases. Nala, and Owahee just absolutely melt with me now. I will take some video, and send if you wouldn't mind critiquing as I progress. I am very much interested in getting accredited. (First things first, I feel once I have my horses gentled, and have thorough knowledge of the steps, and system I'll be ready.)

I would also like to share Ginger's progress with you. Thank you again, it was a miracle that you had the time to come this way.

Be safe in your travels -- Thanks again, for all your support, and encouragement...


Bobbie Henderson

*PS I am remembering to not let my A personality carry over to my lovely horses, and leaving them in good places quicker.
