Halter Trainig - Timing is Everything

- Timing is everything. In relation to training donkeys it is extremely important. As soon as the donkey shows any type of positive reaction to your request the handler must release pressure. Otherwise, the donkey does not understand what it is being asked to do. However, too much pressure can cause the donk to shut down. More pressure does not equate to faster response. An increase in pressure can cause the donkey to shut down.
Food rewards can be used and the same rules apply to timing. However, be careful because food can cause other problems. Have you ever put money in a vending machine and not gotten your candy? Most of us would make or kick the machine. You don't want donkeys to see you as a vending machine.
Scratching is also a good was to realize pressure. I use this technique mostly while I am in the saddle. Be sure not to give scratches at the wrong time. Donkey's don't understand encouragement. Stopping to scratch and tell the donkey he can do it only confuses the animal. You were asking it to move forward, but now that it has stopped you are scratching. The donkey won't understand.
Thank you for your dedcription about scratching/encouragement at the right time. This was helpful.
Thank you for turning the music off while you were speaking.
And this is a perfect example of why the donkey is most definitely my spirit animal!!! 😂😂🥰
I don't even have a donkey or plan on getting a donkey but I love these videos! Very informative , sets my mind at ease. Thank you! Take care of everybody be safe❤
I hope to learn this to people in The Gambia because they bind one legg just to manipulate them... Its a system of knowing how the animals work, bit of patients and right attention... Thumbs up from Holland.
You hope to *teach people about donkeys? The word there should be *teach, not "learn". Students learn, while a teacher teaches. :) Also, being patient (the verb, an action word) is spelled Patience, "a bit of patience", while a person that's under medical care is a patient (a noun, a thing). It's always challenging to learn a different language.
Appreciate your video. Where do I get a halter, like yours for my donkey? I understand that colt and pony/horse halters are not appropriate. Thanks
Love your channel! Your videos wonderful and have really helped me.
Unknown Musictuber Thank you. Stay tuned, we have lots more videos coming.
Do you have any new videos coming out, love what you’ve done so far..
Amazing work with your donkeys,
Sorry but I don’t understand when to add and release the pressure. I am trying to make my donkey walk with the lead, but true, he just stays still.
Happy New Year to you and your lovely donkeys, he looks very healthy...wish I could come and visit, it looks very serene there
This may be an ignorant question but can you have with your donkey like cart pulling and packing but also use them as a live stalk guardian animal? ~Mercy
I like that one. Love the grulla color
Awesome! Are you using a horse rope halter for your donkey.?
Very good!
Sir , what is the purpose of crossing a tarp ? Simulating water, or something else ?
The tarp creates stress which makes the donkey resist. That's when training starts. I teach the donkey to trust me and cross the obstacle even if it is nervous. It is not tarp trying. It is halter training. While the donkey learns by crossing the tarp, it transfers to crossing a creek or loading into a trailer, etc.
Please check your video description for typos and unintended words that have changed your likely meaning. "Scratching is also a good was to realize pressure"? Do you mean that scratching is also a good Way to Release pressure? Proof-reading is needed. (Hurray for the Long-ears! Love the donkeys! Thanks!)
