Re: [RC] I need advice picking up feet - Ed & Wendy Hauser

This is similar to what I have always done.  The only time it has backfired
was one time when my old gelding had some funny thing on his foot.  Without
thinking, I bent over to look.  It must have seemed to him that I wanted his
foot, so he raised it, hitting me right between the eyes!  It was not a
kick, he just was anticipating the command "give it here" that I use.

That taught me to pick up feet when I needed to look at them.

I do agree that in actuality, the horse picks up his feet, you don't.
