Sorry BnB,I meant the pressure stages,ie; when you are getting a horse to step back from a vibration of the rope,stage 1 is a teeny vbration,then stage 2 a bit more,there are 4 stages of pressure,and some instructors use stage 4 as very harsh,ie in this scenario the clip would be whacking the horse under the chin,and they wouldnt stop until they got the result they wanted. Im just saying be careful before you reach that level of pressure and try and work your way through. Ahhhhh!! With you now!!! No this is a bit of Parelli I disagree with-the whole idea is to teach the horse to yield to pressure BUT If you can't stop the pressure instantly, then has the horse really associated their action with the eventual end to the pressure.

Hi there
Im so sorry if youv'e been trying to get hold of me. Yes I was away working in South Africa, and havn't been that well since I have been back. I do have a few people to make contact with, but if you havn't left a message please do call again (the mobile is the best number to ring on - details on IH website under Horse Help). Im actually back at the doctors tonight, so hope that I can start booking work back in very soon.
I hope that every one had a lovely Christmas and New Year, and look forward to meeting some of you in 2008.
Kind Regards
Suzanne Marshall
