IN wise, l first endeavor to teach the
~ the meaning of every word | say
q them. This is not difficult matte
provided too many words are n
in used at once. The s6rstep is to
r,.d6SP5t some word at the sound of
which they are to understand that
they must stop. Words that are
easy 10 speak and which can be
made emphatic, should be chosen,
such as, "ho,' "whoa," ETC., and
every time the word is used the
horse to which it is spoken should
be made to obey it fully. Careless
ness in regard to this matter will do
more to undo what has been taught
than anything else When a horse
fully understands the meaning of a
word which you use when you wish
him to stop and still, the greater
part of the work is accomplished.
He then can he trusted with safety
while you leave him a short time
To take no risk, and to make the
work more effective, it is Il good plan
for two to get into the vehicle to
which a horse is hitched, and having
stopped after a short drive, one
should get out and leave him for Il
short time. Should the horse then
start, the one in the vehicle can then
draw the lines suddenly and thus
prevent his getting away. There
will be no trouble in teaching any
horse with an ordinary amount OF
, good common sense to stand as long
: as you desire without being hitched
if a little judgment is used in at
: tempting it.
