An excerpt from "Round Pen First Steps":
Horses that don't trot off when asked need to be "re-sensitized" to our aids and spooky horses need to be "desensitized" (to our touch, to bug spray, to the saddle). But here's a very major point that you should bear in mind: You can spend your entire life desensitizing your horse to new and scary objects and never run out of material. Because of this, we treat items that might touch the horse or that he might come into contact with frequently (such as waving tarps, fly masks or saddle blankets) in a different fashion than the unknown situation that might arise on the trail or show grounds. To arm ourselves against the "unknowns," we'll cover a step-by-step description of what John Lyons calls "Spook in Place" today. While we can never tell the horse to "not be scared," we can certainly teach him what to do with his feet when he does become spooked – and that's what this exercise is all about. In tomorrow's segment (Day Four), we'll begin the sacking out process by desensitizing your horse to common objects – tack, your touch, etc. (rpt)
