Your Horse's Instincts: Reaction vs. Response

behaviour. We once purchased a friendly mare for breeding purposes and she came with the worst pulling habit Ive ever seen. She had a nice colt and I was careful never to tie her or let the foal know she had any desire to pull. The colt was weaned and the mare sold. Three years later when the colt now a gelding was well trained and had become a reliable young riding horse he decided one day out of the blue to go into a pulling frenzy. The desire to pull seemed to just click and stay with this horse.

مع وصول أونصة الذهب إلى مستويات قياسية تجاوزت 2500 دولار، يجد المواطن المصري نفسه مضطراً لموازنة استثماراته بين الذهب واحتياجاته الأخرى، خاصة مع ارتفاع أسعار السيارات مثل تويوتا، هيونداي، وبي إم دبليو، مما يزيد من التحديات المالية التي يواجهها.

Instinctive reactive behaviours can be more prevalent in one horse than another or with one breed compared to another. There is a marked difference for example between cold blooded and hot blooded breeds when it comes to instinctive reactions such as spooking running or bucking.
As I get older I have less time and desire to deal with poor behaviour and Ive become less willing to blame poor behaviour on past circumstances. I am not as willing to accept explanations such as that someone was harsh around his ears and now you cannot touch them or that someone didnt tie him properly and he got loose and now he pulls so he cant be tied to anything. My opinion on reactions like bucking pulling spooking or general stubbornness is that you should always give the horse the benefit of the doubt and try to correct the issue. But there comes a point when you need to decide if this behaviour which is at least partly innate is something that you want to live with especially if the behaviour puts your safety at risk.

Horseback riding is considered more dangerous than riding a motorcycle automobile racing skiing football and rugby. In fact it has been named one of the three major sporting activities in the northern hemisphere most likely to result in long term disability. One study reported an estimated 102000 horse related injuries in the USA annually from 2001 to 2003 of these 11500 were traumatic brain injuries.
If you want to be a safe trail rider and enjoy your time with horses understand that your horses behaviour may be more deeply rooted than you realize. Although you can certainly improve behaviour with training do not be afraid or ashamed to know when its time to get a more forgiving horse that is not
so deeply entrenched in reactive behaviour no matter where the behaviour came from.
