This could be considered a controversial article, so I'm including it separately from the rest. It contains my views on politically incorrect tack such as curb bits and spurs;
and a condemnation against horse drugging.

Disclaimer
Please use common sense when applying any Horse-Training advice. Horses are dangerous animals, and extreme care must be taken when working with them. Before applying any of the techniques given to you, use your own best judgement.
You are responsible for your own safety -- as well as that of your horse, your property, equipment, etc.
How much do you pay for a horse-training lesson?
Now you can train your horse at home with Kim's detailed horse-training articles.
Reference them over & over. No appointment necessary!
I am in the process of writing more articles available for sale.
Please be patient, as writing the articles and then making the audio takes quite a while.
If you have a suggestion for a horse-training article, contact me and I will be glad to consider it.
I reply to 30-day support questions by email with pdf filesand/or mp3 recordings. With mp3 recordings, you get oral advice straight from me that you can listen to, much like an in-person training session. Your pdf & mp3 answers are respectively printable or recorded, so you can reference them over & over.
Even though I sell modeling photos in my eStore in addition to horse-training advice, please don't be intimidated by this if you're a horse handler needing help.
My horse-training technique is the basis from which I've built all my other work, and helping horses and their owners is something I take very seriously.
I have extensive horse-training experience and can advise you on most issues.
However, I am not experienced in Driving: i.e. teaching a horse to pull a cart, buggy, etc. So driving issues cannot be addressed with 30-day support. However, simple driving issues pertaining to bits, obedience, etc. can be addressed via individual Basic or In-Depth questions.
If I do not feel I can answer your question, you'll receive a full refund. You can contact me through my eStore or this website if you have questions about HTeAdvice.
eBook-only Format on Amazon
A portion of my Horse-Training articles are available on Amazon.com in the Kindle store. These Kindle books are eBook-only formats and do not include the Audio mp3 or printable PDF files included in the Cowgirl Model eStore packages; so they are priced slightly lower.* (The .mobi format included in the Cowgirl Model eStore package DOES work on a Kindle.)
*Because Amazon does not let self-publishers publish Kindle books for free, the articles I offer free here cost the minimum $.99 on Amazon. Cowgirl Image on Amazon
