HOW TO MAKE YOUR HORSE BOW

This trick can be extended to make it more extravagant, and I look forward to seeing the videos of your adaptations of this.

You must have taught your horse the “touch” trick before trying this.

Bow in front of your horse, putting your “touch” object on the floor and saying “touch”.

When he touches MYNAT

Put your “touch” object on the floor in front of your horse. I have used a block to stop him creeping forward.

Stand a little in front of him, bow and say “touch”.

When he touches MYNAT.

Continue practising, building up to just using the bow action and not the word.

Move the “touch” object and keep practising.

If at any stage your horse seems lost, have a break and go back a few steps.
