- IMPORTANT QUALITIES TO INSTILL IN YOUR EQUINE that will help your Farrier be able to help your Equine
and You. Remember that each one of these qualities is a two way street in your Partnership. But also, remember that the leader
needs a minimum of a 51% share in that Partnership.. If you're not that majority leader, some one else has
to be.
- Build MUTUAL RESPECT with TRUST
- Build COMMUNICATION [universal and
verbal]
- Build TOLERANCE
- Build ACCEPTANCE
- Build PATIENCE
- These
can be taken to what ever level you'd like.
PLEASE always put safety above pride everytime, for your own sake.
If you run into a block or plateau, seek the supervision and advice of a respectable, experienced Professional in the Equine
Handling Industry.
