Re: [RC] lunging pre-ride - susan cooper

i do not /would not lunge a) in an unsafe place ...
obviously.  OR simply  to  "burn up energy"..
That's  would be an exercise in futility for everyone
from the jump.. It's but one tool in the toolbox i've found
to get his attention more on ME rather than the 
hullabaloo. 

I clicker train, and my horse knows when she trots nicely with her head down on 
the lunge, she will get a click and a treat.  So, right off the bat, she is 
calm and listening.  It's also when I take up the girth one last hole before 
mounting.
Susan in Nevada???
