This may seem like a trivial read for those of you who have a handle on horsemanship. For first time horse owners, or those who have not studied Natural Horsemanship, this may shed some light on why you may be having issues with getting your horse's respect!

When you lead your horse where is he? Does he push past you? Or does he stay behind you, or by your shoulder? So many horse owners feel if they have a tight grip on their horse's head they are good to go. Not so! If you are used to holding your lead at, or near, the end of the halter you are bound to get bumped, pushed, or worse, jumped on!
