About
One of the primary aspects of force-free horsemanship is the use of positive reinforcement with food. Food is a wonderful tool that has many benefits to our training; it helps build positive associations with new or scary objects/stimuli, can build a healthy relationship with work and learning, and is a way for us to motivate our horses without having to rely on the escalation of pressure. Using food to train is still a controversial subject in the equine world, due to the misconception that hand-feeding horses will result in dangerous behaviours. This cannot be further from the truth! All we need, is to understand how to use it correctly. This Video series covers everything you need to know about how to use food effectively, safely, and ethically.
