What fun! That sound track should go with every such manoeuvre! Thanks, Carl!

Re: Another use for a whip!
How did he train them to do that??? I have to have a grain bucket or its a no go.
Re: Another use for a whip!
There. Indisputable proof that it is the sound of the whip, not its impact, which motivates animals. Detractors of whip use should see this video.
Re: Another use for a whip!
Wow! It always amazes me when people are able to train animals so precisely with such little direction. Thanks for posting.
Re: Another use for a whip!
That seems like some major training was involved for those horses. Thanks for sharing Carl.
Re: Another use for a whip!
Yes, I don't know how it was done but it would not be just an afternoon of training!

Re: Another use for a whip!
Could it possibly have been done by repeatedly putting treats in the horse box, and using the whips to signal that they're ready for collection?

Re: Another use for a whip!
Could easily be just that Robert.
Parelli is a type of horse training. I have no experience with it so do not know what methods they use.
