Решила я поделиться с вами интересным. Это комментарии к моему видео с Красавчиком от Рут Мерфи.
Мой английский недостаточно хорош и потому я не все поняла. Буду благодарна, если кто-то переведет для меня это.
Считаю, что такие советы очень важны и полезны, потому и делюсь.
One thing I can tell you about your work in the video. you can get it refined some more. He is not very happy with disengaging his hindquarters I see. This could be a dominance thing, so I would definitly work on this. I noticed you switch directions as you focus on his hindquarters and take several steps in the opposite direction. This is way too much work! So, as you start thinking about changing direction and disengaging the hindquarters. just simply stop your own movement and turn and face him. This alone should cause him to also stop and turn and face you. If he doesn't, then go up to the next phase of focusing on his hindquarters. Then the next phase is to bend over, still focused on the hindquarters and put some pressure with some hand movement ( wag your finger or rope), still, you have not moved your feet, this is important. If at this point he has still not tried, I would throw the rope at his hindend. Pretty soon, all you will have to do is stop and face him! it's cool, I promise!
Сouple of times when you asked the hind quarters to yield, you allowed the slack to come out of your line and actually ended up pulling his front end around. this is common. but it's not the front feet we are asking to move, it's the hind feet. This is important we have control of the hind end since that is where the engine is. from there we control, collection, stopping, calming down etc.
