dustyhey larry. i appreciate you taking the time to answer questions that people ask. i, too, am no fan of facebook, so thought i would ask my question here. i bought a 5 year old gelding that is dog broke. great horse. i am very pleased.but, the guy i got him from said he had a massive amount of ticks in his ear this summer. he got them out, but it is now november and he pulls his head up when i try to bridle or put on a halter. once it's on, he is fine. what can i do to remedy this problem? is it just a time thing? thanks.
Jeffrey A. StrugarLarry,
Great tip. I'm not a fan of face book so I thought I would leave you a quick note. I apprecate the tips and I have learning
as I read or watch your material. I have some colts to start this winter and one that is kind of afraid of everything!
I can get on him without throwing me what kind of method do you
use to get the colts to move? Curious

LeRoy SpragueI own a 5 year quarter horse and just bought a 6 month own colt. How do I get the 5 yr. old to except the colt,always trying to bite it?
LarryTrocha@LeRoy Sprague: Hi LeRoy. There is no practical way to MAKE a horse be nice to another horse. Your older horse is simply establishing his dominance over the young one. In a few weeks, they should have everything worked out and be buddies. If not, you may have to separate them.

joncyLarry, what do i do if my appaloosa wants to back and rear whin i try to ride away from the barn or yard? If i get him out the gate he might go a mile before he starts trying to turn and go back home. When i try to turn him back the way i was headed he starts throwing his head and backing and trying to rear. will a tie down fix this problem? Joncy
@joncy: Hi Joncy. No, a tie-down won't fix your horse's problem. Your horse is "balking" and the root cause is lack of respect for your authority.
The cure is to get your horse to respect you and know he has to do what you want.

PennyWhat if the horse consistently turns on his forehand, swinging his hip out away from you as you're trying to mount? How do you apply pressure to the hip that you can't reach?
@Penny: Hi Penny. First, determine the root problem that has caused the horse to act like this. Was it the rider's toe poking the horse in the ribs? Was it the left rein too tight? What ever the cause, eliminate it.
Second, you can control the hip from moving away from you by pulling the off-side rein. Put the rein over the saddle horn like I demonstrate in the video. When the horse moves his hips away from you, pull the right rein, bringing the horse's head to the right, until the hip stops moving.
Good luck.
