It was Alexander Graham Bell.
He invented the phone but there was something about it he didn’t like.
He refused to have the phone in his study because…
“The ringing drove him nuts!”
Kind of an odd quirk for someone who invented the telephone.
Everyone has quirks.
Horse trainers have ‘em for sure.
Horse Training Tips: What’s The Price Of NOT Training Your Horse?
If you’ve been following my emails for days or years, you’ll probably notice I’m big on safety. Today’s tip is centered around this issue….
If you had a dangerous piece of equipment at home or where you work that kept going out of control with no notice, you’d probably fix it or replace it before someone got hurt.
9/11, Safety and Horse Training
Here’s my 9/11 experience and how it relates to safety and preparation – including with your horses.
[This is a long email - there is a 9/11 special at the end if you don’t have time to read it. I first sent this last year.]
Horse Training Tips – Prof Jesse Beery Experts
I talk, read and write about horse training every day. I send out horse training tips to thousands 4 – 6 times per week.
One of the most important parts about horse training and probably one the most important horse training tips I could convey to you is the importance of understanding how a horse thinks and learns. Too many folks, who are new to horses or who haven’t studied horses much, attempt to apply human emotion and understanding to their horse training and it just doesn’t work that way with horses.
Horse Training Tips: Horse Training Starts With You
Do you have things you need to work on with
your horses? (who doesn’t?)
Training horses starts first with the trainer. Unless
you are already experienced and know what to do, you’ll
need to learn some handling and training skills prior to
understanding and teaching your horse anything. This
winter time is an excellent time to do that.
Do You Suffer From “Horse Training Information Overload”?
I received a letter from one of my readers (I’ll call her Jill)
who has been on my email list for over a year. She has
issues with her horses while riding outside of the round pen.
Jill is fairly new to horses and is still trying to figure things out.
I ran across this video earlier and think you’d enjoy it a lot.
Here’s a calm horse laying down in the pasture with a baby goat climbing all over it!
It’s common knowledge that goats and horses make great friends – and this proves it.
Watch it – it’s well worth the 2 minutes!

Prof Jesse Beery – Horses: Creatures of Habit
Part of the secret to horse training is understanding how horses think and why they react the way they do to the things in their environment.
Take, for instance, the great strength a horse has. If a horse was fully aware of its own strength and he could reason, then he wouldn’t be able to be controlled by a voice command or reins. The horse would always know he could over power the handler whenever he wanted.
Over time I have gathered a list of horse idioms I’ve read or heard people use. So, I keep adding to list as I come across them.
