Whether you’ve spent time with equines in a past life, you’ve wanted to spend time with them but never had a chance or they are an integral part of your day-to-day, many canine trainers wonder how they can adapt their force-free handling and training techniques to their equine friends. Come and learn the similarities and differences between equines and canines from an ethological and training perspective. Learn what techniques and learning theories you can apply directly to equines and what differences you need to account for. What is protected contact, why should it be used with equines, and when should it be used? What training plans are directly transferable to equines, and when should new plans be written? How to safely feed, lure, and work in close contact with such a large animal. Learn about similarities and differences in body language and stress signals. Horse welfare is even further behind than dog welfare. Learn how you can make a difference for the equines in your life!
