I remember using an exercise by Linda a bunch of years ago on Guinness, and it was supposed to help him realize where his feet were. I don't remember the exact pattern, but there were poles set on the ground kind of like a maze, and the horse has to walk through it. It has a few u turns. I think the next step is to back through it. I wanted to try this on my new guy, but I don't remember the pattern. Does anyone else know it? Thanks! Alicia |

Hi Alicia, I have 2 of "The Tellington-Jones Equine Awareness Method", think the exercise you are referring to is called the labyrinth. Sitting here trying to figure out how to explain and not confuse-lol. Would be easier to mail you the extra book I have- e-mail me your address and I will gladly mail you one of the books. hacihorsefarm1@msn.com Chris Glad you brought this up- I think my 2 yr olds that I have just started would love em to do some of the exercises. |

Linda, Yes, that helps a lot! Chris, Thanks I got the exercise off the site Linda posted, and yes, it was the labyrinth I was remembering. I won't try it on him right away, I think the wavy lines would be easier to start him on, but I will try the labyrinth over the next few weeks. Thanks! Alicia |

Intriguing...Can anyone do this? This might help my poor stiff about to be rehabbed boy. Can someone tell me how to lead as an elegant elephant? |
