Stop that, stand still, move over, don't bite me! How many times do you catch yourself saying things like this? If you sound like this when you are around your horse maybe it's time to step up your training.

If your horse is disrespectful when you are tacking up, or while you are walking him in and out of the barn, he may not think of you as the leader. In a herd, if your horse is not the herd leader he would not think about biting, kicking at, or moving into the herd leader's space without an invitation.
