Article: Every interaction that you have with your horse in an opportunity to teach her something. Make the most of these moments and stay safe by following some basic rules for safety around your horse. Never stand or walk directly behind or in front of your horse. When working with your horse's head, stand on your horse's left side at an angle from her head. Talk to your horse and touch her body as you move out of her field of vision. When you need to do something with your horse's hoof, bend over rather than crouching down. Your horse will not be able to learn a new trick or command in just one day. To teach your horse new things, you will have to take it one step at a time. Break the training goal that you have for your horse into smaller goals and work towards those goals one at a time. For example, if you want to teach your horse to bow, start by teaching her how to follow a target with her nose first. Trying to teach your horse or dealing with misbehavior can be aggravating, but you need to keep calm. Your horse may become frightened or frustrated if you seem angry or upset, so it is very important for you to remain calm and positive even if your horse is not responding well to what you are trying to teach her. Never yell or use a high-pitched voice around your horse or you may frighten her. Instead, speak to your horse in a soft, low tone voice to help keep her calm and responding to your instructions. Make sure that you acknowledge your horse's accomplishments by using positive reinforcement when she does what you have asked. Treats are the most common form of positive reinforcement. Positive reinforcement will help your horse understand that she is on the right track. Applying gentle pressure with the reins or using a gentle whip tap can be used as negative reinforcement. Continue to apply the negative reinforcement until your horse does what you have asked. Make sure that you do not use any type of negative reinforcement that frightens or hurts your horse. The negative reinforcement should not be frightening or painful, just annoying. If your horse is not comfortable, then she may be distracted when you try to give commands. Make sure that your horse's saddle is fitted to her body and that the quality is high enough to prevent her from getting sores. Using padding under a cheap saddle will not solve the problem, your horse will still be uncomfortable. Expect to spend upwards of $500 for a good quality saddle. If you have more than one horse, you may need a different saddle for each one.

Article: Giving tasteful compliments about a guy's appearance is one thing, but creeping a guy out with rude or suggestive comments about his body is another entirely. Though many guys may be reluctant to show it, their feelings may even by hurt by you objectifying them. Don't make a guy feel like a piece of meat though this is advice you'll usually hear given to men regarding women, it's just as true the other way around. Objectification happens when you take a person's appearance as representation of their whole being. This is especially when these attributes should be irrelevant to the situation. Though sparing a guy's feelings should be enough of a reason not to objectify him, there's another reason you shouldn't do it that's more immediate: you can get in trouble. In fact, if your creepy come-ons or unwanted compliments are severe enough, they can constitute harassment, which is a major offense at school or in the workplace and lead to serious repercussions. There are a huge range of topics that are acceptable subjects for compliments, so don't make the mistake of choosing one that's off-limits. In general, you'll want to avoid complimenting guys on things that are very personal or which have strong emotions attached to them, unless you're very close to him. This advice is especially true if other people are present while it may sometimes be OK to bring up personal topics in one-on-one settings, you'll almost never want to do it in front of his friends. Taboo compliments will vary from place to place. It can be considered offensive to compliment a man on his wife. Your compliments should be all about building the guy up, not about subtly tearing him down or making yourself feel better at his expense. Try not to give backhanded compliments compliments that contain a thinly-veiled insult or a compliment to yourself. Not only are they rude, but also generally quite obvious, so they can easily end up making you look like a jerk in social situations. Here's an example of a backhanded compliment: "Hey, did you get a new shirt? It makes you look thinner." It may seem like you're complimenting him, but you're also saying he normally looks fat. Research suggests that people are more likely to take these expressions as backhanded when they perceive the person giving the compliment has some insight into what is normal. Don't use a canned line. Ridiculous pickup lines can be great fun if you're just playing around, but they're terrible if you're genuinely trying to compliment someone. Remember, the best compliments are sincere ones, so, unless this person has really "been running through your head all day", you're probably hurting your chances with these sorts of lines. Don't compliment him on something you're unsure about. If you're wrong about your assumption, you may offend him or hit a sensitive nerve, so it's usually best to play it safe and wait. Here are just a few examples of potentially "dangerous" situations where you should tread lightly: His appearance has recently changed (e.g., he has recently lost a lot of weight in a short time) You haven't seen him in a long time and aren't sure how his life has changed You don't know his relationship status You aren't sure how he feels about current events (e.g. in the field of politics, etc.)
