peer iscipline D
by Crystal Lyons
A
fter getting my stallion as a 4 year old and him never allowed to run with other horses when he was young, I felt helpless to train him social manners. I eventually tied him under a tree where the other horses could come around him…..and PRAYED over his safety. Sure enough, here came the geldings to check out the new guy! He being “legendary in his own mind” set off an arrogant squall. It was like the geldings said “well, heck with you buddy” and they threw in a few kicks when they left. You know, it wasn’t simply the kicks that did so much as I actually think it was just as much their leaving him to be alone with his stinky attitude! He whinnied and nickered at them begging them to return but they simply blew him off. After a while they sauntered back up to visit him again….and again, he had to act like a turd. More kicks were administered as they left. I did this for a few hours a couple of days and I was amazed at the results. He has actually become LESS legendary in his opinion of himself! There’s nothing like one’s peers to administer discipline to teach good manners to an unruly one! That is of course….if the group one is running with have manners themselves. My sons were blessed to go to a small Christian school that keeps all the kids, 1st grade through 12th together during recess and other activities and even when they are separated for their
class work, they still share 3 rooms. I have watched what this does for kids and it’s AWESOME! The little guys quickly have great confidence because they “hang” with the “older, cooler” kids. And by the time one reaches the older grades they automatically watch over, play with and protect the little ones. One year, for whatever reason, a young boy who was badly spoiled by his mother took to picking on a little girl a couple of grades below him. The teachers tried to catch him but he was sneaky. This is where the older boys stepped in and gave him a direct warning that unless he leave her alone, THEY were going to take
“There’s nothing like one’s peers to administer discipline to teach good manners to an unruly one! “ him behind the school house and whip him themselves. Well….because his mother never allowed anyone to “harm” her darling….he actually didn’t think they’d lay a finger on him. He was wrong. One day on the playground he began picking on her and one of the boys simply whipped his butt right then and there in front
of God and everybody. He ran to the teacher bawling….his momma came huffing and puffing….and the teacher had the wisdom of God instead of the political correctness that so governs our schools now. She stood with the young man who disciplined the bully. Did you know it stopped that day!! It ended that day because a student took personal responsibility for the wellbeing of a little girl! That boy never picked on anyone to my knowledge again….and he has grown up to be a fine young man. Nothing can instill in a young stud manners, quicker than an old herd mare! Sometimes it’s best to let the discipline of peers do its thing. Of course…that depends on the quality of the “herd” that the kid is running with! In this case…..the young man who whipped the other boy was my son. He had confided in me and had my full backing. But he was willing to take a whipping from the teacher if necessary to stop this kid from bullying the little girl. These things are what train our sons to be heroes……and gives young studs manners!

Your horses do what?
S
o what is reining? I get that question a lot. If it’s a horse person asking I usually reply that it’s like dressage with a western saddle and speed. If it’s a non horse person, I try saying it’s like ice skating with horses. Neither answer is quite right, but it can start some great conversations about what reining is. Reining started out the way of many of our western disciplines. Cowboys out on the ranch or at a show, showing off the athleticism of their mounts. Could they gallop hard then come back to a calm lope? Change leads on a dime? How far could they slide? Eventually there was a need for an official group, and in 1966 the National Reining Horse Association was born. Since then it has grown into an international organization, and is the first western discipline recognized by the FEI. Reining is now a part of the World Equestrian Games. What are the maneuvers a reining horse has to perform? • 3 circles on each lead, 2 large galloping circles that will take up about half of the arena, and 1 smaller collected lope circle that will be a half to a 1/3 of the large circle. • 4 consecutive spins to the left and to the right. For this maneuver the horse should keep his hind end in one place, and cross his
By Heather Johnson
outside front leg in front of the inside one. “Spinning like a top” so to speak. • One lead change each direction. Credit is given for a clean correct change. At least 3 sliding stops, 2 of which will have a rollback after them. In a sliding stop the horse gallops down the arena, and when asked to stop, locks his hind legs underneath him and sits back to slide on the special slide plates they wear on their hind feet. At the same time he paddles with his front legs, allowing the stop to continue as long as his impulsion allows. After coming to a halt and hesitating, the horse picks his front end up and completes a 180 turn, loping out over his tracks, thus completing his rollback. This is considered the signature move of a reining horse. I hope this explains a little more what a reining horse does. I happen to think it’s just about the most fun you can have on a horse!
