:: Problem Horse Training ::
Have you ever thought "I wish my horse came with an owner's manual"?  Well we have a program for you!  Often, getting your problem horse to do what you want is a matter of learning to communicate with each other using the same 'language'.  We can show you how.  Below are some of the techniques we use to get results.

Operant Conditioning
 
Voluntary activity that brings about a reward.

Classic Conditioning
 
Acquisition of a response to a new stimulus by association with an old stimulus (also called Pavlovian Conditioning)

Associative Learning
 
When horses make links between stimuli and responses.

Systematic Desensitizing
 
Weakening an unwelcome fear response to a given stimulus to the point of extinction.
