Tip/Quote of the Day # 423
When your horse challenges you, try to not engage in a fight, so that he has a reason to fight back. Instead, ignore the bad behavior, and ask him to do something easy, that you know he can and will do. This way you can reward him, which will help to re-establish peace in your relationship.
