Tip/Quote of the Day # 83

In training the horse to be more responsive and self motivated, it is better to use the whip than the spur as reinforcement. As if the horse only ever feels light aids on his sides, he will be more sensitized to that light pressure. While reinforcing with the spur might get the job done, a touch with the whip behind the saddle will do a better job of keeping him sensitive to a light aid on his sides.
