[QUOTE="Suzie Q, post: 854020, member: 14334"] One reason that horses bite is if they are given treats every day and then you turn up with out a treat. You don't know that the previous owner did. But an open mouthed bite on the shoulder sounds massive to me. As above it is about respect and every single time you handle this horse you are training him. There is no just throwing out a biscuit (flake) of hay or rugging him. You are training him. You have been training him for a month. Horses pick things up extremely quickly. They can pick up good or bad habits. So train for good habits and the bad ones won't rear their ugly head. If you don't know what you are doing you are training for bad habits without knowing it.
