Nutmeg - first time with a person on her back 23 May 2024

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.

At approx 4min34sec in to this video my Start Right!! process begins - intentionally defusing the 4 anti-predator triggers associated with mounting a horse. At 17min43sec (13min9sec later) I am fully sitting up on Nutmeg for the very first time she has ever had a person sitting on her back and she is standing like a statue. This webpage explains the Start Right!! process https://griffes.tripod.com/startright.html Yes if you are going to start your own horse I do believe you should use my Start Right!! process so that you KNOW you intentionally defused all 4 anti-predator triggers associated with mounting a horse the very first time. Obviously it is your choice - your decision - completely your own risk because you are deciding for yourself.

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!!
