WHY THE WHIP IS IMPORTANT IN RETRAINING AND WHAT IF YOUR OTTB IS SCARED OF IT!

[@carolfyall688]

I need to introduce this. No idea why this gives me the fear. Possibly because He is doing so well without for now. I will introduce though.

there is no need to rush with introducing the whip, you may find he is ok with it. if he is a bit worried follow the process I share in the video here, What we want to do is change the association of the whip from. being a punishing tool to instead being something very neutral to even a positive tool.
