The Running of the Mustangs
|
A healthy mustang has a great deal of play drive. Training mustangs works best when they can have some periods of fun.
After Frank and his students desensitized their horses to wearing saddles and did complete "pre flight checks," halters were removed and the horses were allowed about 15 minutes of play time. The horses did have fun. They ran and played. Not a single horse tried to buck or wreck his saddle. Wearing saddles was not just associated with restraint or training. Saddles were just something that were present and not to be dreaded. |
