Find It on the No Worries Club: Lessons Not Sticking With a Colt

NWCfind

A No Worries Club member asks Clinton: I have a horse that is 3 years old as of April. I have been working her through the Colt Starting Series. We are up to the Jeffrey’s Method, but she is still very skittish. Every day is like a new day, and we start desensitizing, lunging, sending, saddling, standing tied, etc. But every day is like a new day. How do I get her to calm down?

Listen to Clinton’s answer by logging on to the No Worries Club website or by logging on to the Downunder Horsemanship app and going to the Clinton’s Q&A section and searching for “lessons not sticking with a colt.”

The No Worries Club website is home to hundreds of hours of training video content available to members only. This exclusive content includes full-length TV shows, Q&A’s with Clinton that cover a variety of training topics, a Testing the Method series that focuses on the Fundamentals and Intermediate levels of the Method, and past No Worries Club videos.
