Prevent Your Horse Stopping Abruptly When You Click
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- Some clicker trained horses can get into the habit of stopping dead when they hear the click or their marker. From a trot or canter, this can cause the horse to slam on the brakes, bracing and hollowing as they stop. This can cause problems for the horse physically and is uncomfortable to ride.
In this video, I show you how to teach your horse to stop slowly and gently when you click. Starting with leading exercises, you'll make sure your horse knows to halt softly and in balance. I then show you this process when lunging and riding in trot and canter.

"ok this also works if your lunging"
- proceeds to do the thing with invisible tack. ROFL !!
Great video.
You'll see we have a 'take it or leave it' attitude to tack around here 🤣Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed it!
Great channel!
Please, Can you do a video on that saddle???? It looks quite interesting.
Good idea! It's a panelled saddle so a little unusual :-)
Sorry I'm a bit confused. I'm missing the cue to stop; what are you doing to ask the horse to stop? It looks like you are clicking the horse to get him to stop, but I know that can't be right. I do CT w my horse and he stops on the verbal cue of 'Whoa", then I click and treat him. He DOES stop abruptly tho, so I was very interested in watching this! I started elongating the "Whoooooooaaaaa" and that does seem to help him elongate the movement a bit. Anyway, I'm not seeing/hearing your cue to stop. Thanks!
Sounds like breath cues. She does a notable exhale which when ridden is often what people do before sitting deeper in the saddle which will become a part of the cue too
The click is the horses "release" cue to stop the behavior so he can be rewarded. (you can add a verbal cue before, and still click and reward) To keep them from stopping abruptly she takes a couple steps between the click and the reward. So the horse learns to take a few steps as well.
I believe the cue to stop is "Ho"
