June 29, 2012


When I got my first horse off the Los Alamitos racetrack, she was hyper and loved to run. When I started training her, I looked for advice from professionals who had trained many horses already. That is how I found John Lyons. I happened to get on a mailing list for his books and I found them filled with insightful information about how to train the horse as well as how to think while working with the horses.
Though John is really good at explaining, there are some things that just don’t completely make sense until you get into a specific situation. When I’m training on the trailer, or anything else I find myself thinking WWJLS (What Would John Lyons Say). He is always calm. “It might take 5 times or 500 times.”
