Thoroughbred Makeover Diary: A Positive and Successful Experience for Scout

Description:
My only goal for a horse’s first competition is for the experience to be positive. All decisions are made to keep the horse comfortable and build his confidence in us and this new life. Horses never forget their first time at anything. It’s during the first encounter that they make a decision of whether a new activity is good or bad. If they have several good experiences initially and then something negative happens, they have a positive foundation to rely on.
