The horse who is beautifully pacing on the circus ring doing bows on wave of a hand of the trainer – who with admiration did not watch it? And meanwhile to teach a horse to do bows – not the most difficult task for the skilled equestrian.
Instruction
1. Define whether rather your horse is obedient to teach her even not to the not most difficult tricks which are not relating, by and large, to her usual education. If the horse opposes to your actions, then you will be able to be helped by only the experienced trainer.
2. Fill up stocks of lump sugar and carrot before you begin to teach a horse to do bow or choose that delicacy which to it most of all to taste. Only constantly encouraging it, it is possible to achieve a certain progress.
3. Enter the stable, having at themselves a decent stock of delicacy. For a start you need to teach a horse to bow to a breast. Take a sugar piece, show it to the horse, bring it to a breast of a horse and tell: "Bow". When the animal stretches to a tidbit, give it to it and surely praise and stroke. Repeat this procedure several times within several days while the horse does not zatverdit a lesson. More than 10 minutes a day you should not be engaged with it, otherwise she just will begin to eat sugar, without paying attention to your requirements.
4. Further you pass to the second grade level. Get sugar from a pocket, show it to the horse and carry by a piece between its of front legs so that she reached for it. As soon as she stretches, take away a hand with sugar gradually farther and farther from her front legs. The horse will remain nothing else except how to stretch after your hand and to expose one or both legs forward to get sugar. Do not forget to pronounce the word "bow" at this moment. Carry out these exercises every day (besides, not longer than 10 minutes) until the horse learns to do bow already without delicacy.
5. At first instead of a voice command it is possible just to clap a horse on a front leg while it tries to keep step with sugar. Be attentive and careful in the course of training that the horse did not suffer.
