Welcome to KP. She has a new rescue TB with lots of problems. Let's see what we can do with CAT to help the behavior while she deals with the health issues on...
Hi all, There's been a thread on 5Q this week saying JRR and Kellie Snyder have refined the CAT process even more, their experimenting with dogs has shown a ...
The break between trials is really important. That "think" time allows time to process. I've had good success with marathon sessions (4 hours) and those...
Hi Laurel, It hurts us to the core when our fragile flowers turn their rumps on us!!! Particularly when we think we've got the keys to the kingdom!! You've...

Julie!! Keep yourself safe!! As one who has experienced all the downs as well as the soaring ups these girls send our way, I too have sat and cried, I must ...
Hi All, Delores, I have a funny thing happening here. Now we know that CAT has done its work for Star as he does not seek distance and is asking for C/T each...
Laurel, Guess what I was doing with her..... I had her trotting round me at liberty, I was feeling like Klaus Hempfling and Alexander Nevzorov all rolled into...

I know it's hard. But, try to remember that C/T is pressure too. The pressure to succeed sometimes that the horse puts on itself until the steam vent blows. ...
Julie, I think this is darling. And yes, I agree he is saying I'm wanting to do it. I'm building my courage by doing this other thing. Whew, I've got it. Just...
thanks Delores, I was hoping I could tape this today but we got visitors and now it is too late. I was only just telling Laurel to trust the process (and you...
Hi Dolores and all, I'm just feeding back on this afternoon with Jedda. I took the halter into the paddock and invented a game called "Chase the halter", where...

Hi Julie, ... unless you saw the tapes and my blunders Delores and guided me. Thanks :-), I'm hoping you and Dolores can do the same for me, already I'm...
I've sent Dolores a copy of the dvd as well, but I'm hoping to get someone to put the session up on youtube as the folks on 5Q said they wouldn't mind watching...
Hej all of you cats ! Agnès came back from the States and in her bagage : CATS the 6 brand-new DVDs. It happened today. First I looked on the last one, the...
I'm new here. Dolores just snagged me from the drowning pool and suggested I drop in for a chat. I have a horse that may well be a candidate for CAT. His...
I tried a little something last night that I think could be considered CAT. Do correct me if I'm wrong. Gabe is pretty unpredictable, but last night he...

... Two things stand out. One she did not offer head lowering during CAT and second that she threw her head down. It's almost a panic response. I'll put human...
Hi Julie, Hello, the pest again! I was thinking last night when I went to bed about why we had the pen in the first place, and why we made it so small... it's ...
HI Laurel No, I recall the reason you had her in a pen in the first place - She has come a long way. I just feel looking at her now she knows she is confined -...
Yep, already enlarged it Julie! thanks. I will watch with your two eyes as well as my own next time Kate comes for a CAT. I thought you'd like this quote from...
Ok for those who want to watch - I managed to put a couple of flicks on You tube This is pre CAT and as soon as he did not seem to need CAT any more - mind you...
Can you post some of the intermediate CAT between these two? We had to accept lots of smaller behaviors before the head down. And, the head down was evolved by...

Hi Julie, ... accept lots of smaller behaviors before the head down. And, the head down was evolved by Star, not by Julie. Julie supported it though. YES...
