[QUOTE="Suzie Q, post: 790405, member: 14334"] Yes the wall analogy works. Or turn it into an electric fence. Think about it like this. Foals play together. They bite and kick each other for fun. If you hit him after he has bitten you, they thing, "Ooooh she got me that time, I will have to be a bit quicker next time." So instead you are always ready before they bite. You can use whatever your elbow, your whip, your hand, some people have a nail in a piece of wood as said earlier. But you do not hit the horse. Instead you have to be quick and when they go to bite they hit your elbow or whip or nail in the piece of wood. Let it hurt. Just like an electric fence hurts without injuring. They will stop in four or five tries. But you must be vigilant for when they go to test you out again. With this method they do not end up head shy. [/QUOTE]
