Episode Synopsis

"The striking horse can be very dangerous. A horse can sort of paw at you, giving a warning like a half-hearted kick. The striking horse gets his weight over the quarters and flashes one or both front hoofs as quick as the strike of a rattlesnake. The striking horse is very accurate."This is a quote from The Book of Bad Habits - How to Correct Your Horse’s Most Annoying Vices by Dave Jones.This podcast tells the story of my training failure.  I didn't have the time or the skills to correct striking and bucking behavior. The decision to part with him turned out to be a great decision for him and for me.Please visit our website at Second Half Horsemanship.
