I posted this on the Click Ryder Forum and thought I’d post it here for you guys. 
Well, we’ve made another break through. Yielding the front end. This was a major no no in Sonny’s book. I could move his HQs around all I liked, but his front end was going to stay right where it was, thank you very much. If I persisted, backing or charging forward were the two options offered. Not a good look, as my riding teacher says. Well I tried it with clicker training and now after two days we are doing splendidly. This brings up an interesting point that I would like some feed back on. Do you find that your horses are more willing to learn new things with CT? Especially those things that they resisted before you started CT. Sonny is much more patient with my fumbling around trying to show him what I want him to do than he was before.
Some other fun things we are learning are: heeling (If my dog can do it why can’t my horse?), standing still calmly (he gets this little coy look that is soo cute.), head down, and walking with are ears pricked forward. Backing up on command is getting really solid too.
