I like how you give folks permission to take the time it needs. Measure twice and cut once. I often feel pressure from others when they want me on her back when I know she isn't centered. It takes time. And changes come slowly. Some days I think she is really making improvements and then there will be back slide. Especially whenever I had an object in my hands. I had to start so far behind by first just showing that I could hold a stick, just hold. That actually took me about a month. I need videos like this they help a lot. You are so patient and soft spoken -but not mushy. :/

Mr. DeHass. We acquired an older horse and she nips at us/me when we touch her face, and times haltering. What is the best way to gain her trust?
