[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1188420, member: 18809"] You need to spend a bunch of time with him. Make a small pen, about a 10 x 10 or so, and stand in the middle. He will run in circles, because he is afraid of you. It is best if you have a show stick, and just keep touching him with it, trying to scratch him when he stops. Get him used to the fact that you are good, and pleasure comes from you. He will stop running eventually, and learn to trust you. The biggest mistake you have made is trying to hold on to him. Each time you have the hater and he gets lose, he learns he can out power you. It only takes a time or two, and you will never be able to hold him. By having him in a small pen, you can grab the rope and give it a tug towards you, when he turns his head toward you release the pressure. Give and take. And he can not get away.... [/QUOTE]
