Re: [RC] Git 'em (was: Paintballing dogs) - Beth Walker

Thanks for the explanation. I think that would be useful for a lot of critters. However, it did bring up another question ... what about snakes? I would think you would also need to teach your horse that anything that looks like a snake is to be left strictly alone. If they already do this, I wouldn't want to get them confused on that point. :)

Unless...of course, they are at liberty. However, I have found that if
you have given the horse the confidence to believe that their attacks
against dogs, or coyotes, or cows, or other moveable objects will be
successful, when they are at liberty, they can figure out for themselves
that all they need to do is turn on it and chase it off. Most horses
find this to be a pretty fun game.
