Pick up your rider - session one - Ashur - 12 Sept 2023
Picking up your rider from a raised mounting platform is a handy skill to teach a horse. The concept is to get your horse to accept responsibility to move itself into position so the rider can easily get on from whatever raised mounting platform is available (picnic table, pickup bumper, trailer fender, tall stump, etc.)
Ashur is a 5yr old blue roan TWH gelding. He gives no indication of previously having been taught this skill. After a basically half hour session he is doing it pretty well - another session or two and he should have it perfect. This video shows the whole process start to finish - aside from a less than one minute portion I edited out when the tripod blew over (fell over) and I went and set it back up - this spot is noted by a title card.
Every horse learns at a different speed. So if you want to see the training done on other horses go to this webpage https://griffes.tripod.com/comeover.html
Training horses always involves some risk of injury (or even death) to the horse, the trainer, any spectators, equipment used, etc. - this risk is totally your own as you will be making your own judgements on what to do. As with any suggestions on any subject you must weigh them out for yourself and proceed accordingly - at your own risk.
Remember to intentionally, on purpose, learn of God each day by prayerfully reading, studying, and pondering upon God's word each day. Talk to God in prayer as your Heavenly Father who would like for you to be His friend. Find out what He would like you to do for Him as His friend and go and do it for Him as His friend. Yes very intentionally, very much on purpose, become the friend of God. And have a blessed day!!
