This episode delves into one of the most debated topics in the equestrian community: the use of treats in horse training. Shelby explores the common fears and misconceptions surrounding rewards-based training and offers insights into why these fears might be unfounded.
Join in as we unravel the truth behind the age-old belief that feeding treats leads to aggressive behavior in horses. We discuss the science of operant conditioning and how it applies to horse training, drawing parallels with methods used in training other animals, including predators in zoos. Discover how rewards-based training can not only be safe and effective but also enhance the bond between horse and rider.
For those interested in learning more, additional resources such as webinars and books are available. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of equine behavioral science and how it can transform your training practices.
