Teaching A Horse To Lower His Head Under Saddle… With Tik Maynard

Tik Maynard is riding his horse and it is the first time he is applying positive reinforcement (R+)
under saddle. We decided that relaxation and lowering his head were the goal in this first
session. Of course we started with some of the mechanics that are part a horse and rider
learning to take/deliver food from the tack. This is one of the earlier steps in getting started with
positive reinforcement under saddle.

Love this seeing Tik riding and using clicker. I can’t wait until you’re here for your clinic w Tik.

It's great to see a pro like Tik supporting (R+)! In my barn I'm still the only one but I am hopeful it will catch on. I would love to see more of these under saddle (R+) videos especially training collection.

Wow, for not being a seasoned clicker trainer, Tik has great timing and us on the ball with being able to split his attention = listen to you/Shawna while still catching/noticing the correct behavior and reinforcing it! Concern: With so many different behaviors going on when that click happens, I feel like there is a threat of superstitious behavior (?)
