The Wind was made up by Big Predator to try sell you the idea the grass is not actually full of snakes
Asked a regular at the barn if she's ever trained a horse for the wash stall, and she was like "yeah, it's pretty easy, you just [describes a method that is definitely flooding]"
Can't ask for help with Nova's training because no one even realizes that their training methods may be harsh and/or stressful. Sorry, but I'm just not convinced that continuously hosing a stressed horse down and only removing the water when it stops reacting, no positive reinforcement included, is "teaching the horse to control its emotions." Even if you're only hosing its feet, that still sounds to me like you're teaching a horse that flight doesn't work, instead of teaching it that there's no good reason to get flighty.
But what do I know, I've only trained dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. Anyways, I'll continue trying the lengthy and exhausting r+ method until I see some evidence that your 'desensitization' isn't just a less harsh version of flooding.
Good article
https://www.thewillingequine.com/post/2017/02/08/desensitizing-the-methods
During her last two baths, I had no one to help calm her down, and earlier this week she reached the highest emotional arousal I've seen yet, so I'm beginning to worry that I might be sensitizing her to the washstall instead of desensitizing. It's incredibly frustrating to be alone with this
I'm so proud of Nova, I almost started crying during today's session. I tried operant counter-conditioning, and she took to it like a champ. After just 15 minutes, she voluntarily stepped into the water, letting it touch her hooves (and then she immediately stepped back after getting her treat lol - baby steps).
Her legs are good enough now that I'll pause the mite treatment and focus solely on wash stall training. The mites will return, but it's a risk I'm willing to take if it means she'll become comfortable enough that I can wash her without crossing her threshold of fear.
We also trained target-following in the pasture afterwards, and she did amazing! I was able to stand at her outside shoulder and walk her in a volte!!! It wasn't a perfect volte by any means, but just the fact that I can turn her away from me while still keeping her attention on me is huge. She's such a smart cookie :')
I've also concluded that the sores at the front of her hocks are sallenders, and I will manage them accordingly. Wish me luck TvT
Edit: Oh, also, Nova almost spooked twice today because a shovel got tangled in her tail and a tractor drove too close. Both times I used that 'woah' cue we've been practicing, then gave her 10-15 seconds to process the situation, and it worked perfectly. I'm so so proud of her.
Plan changed! She took so well to the counter-conditioning, I was able to bathe her today without a huge fuss! The mite treatment can continue :D
awww nova <3 so proud of you two! facing the evil hose is less scary with friends and also food

spent hours agonising over a fiador knot only to realise i can just do a blood knot with a loop because it serves the excact same function
And now, for the main moment i've been rebooting the whole GUI subsystem for, aside for the zoom in zoom out - the WORLD TONER
The moment the whole world's colours shift is when the toner gets applied. Note that it doesn't tint the cursor and the user interface; it was impossible before and that's what initiated the GUI system overhaul. This is not exactly a shader, but shaders can be applied in the future without collaterally messing up the user interface, too.
Night looks so much more nightly now!
look at my wonderful colour work and technical prowess girl

i love when people clip hearts into their horses its like we want to leave a mark on them to show that they are loved. even if they dont understand it
aw dang im crying over horsie at 12:05 am
today i wanted to ride chief but they were settting up a bonfire in the paddock that shares the fence with where i tack him up, and the car driving in full of dead branches and people moving the dead branches and the wind and all the cows freaking out about the dead branches really freaked my poor boy out. I though he was going to bolt on me and snap his bailing twine. i managed to calm him down though, i think im pretty good at that ngl, im proud of how i keep my head in those situations. for a bit i had to just let him dragon snort at the car because all i could do was make sure i wasnt pinned between him and the fence, but eventually he started checking in with me again, i asked him to put his head down and threw some of his favourite treats on the ground and when the car left to get another load i asked chief to move in a circle and yield his hindquarters both ways before walking him back to his paddock, since it was pretty clear we werent going to ride today.
When i took his halter off i thought he was going to bolt away to his friends but he took three steps away and then changed his mind and turned back to me <3
my heart just melted in that moment, we shared some cuddles and walked together for a bit and then he went to join his friends. i am so lucky to have been given the chance to be his person
fuck i love him so much i love horses so much i want to keep them safe forever and ever and ever
you see a stick on the ground, do you
pick it up in your mouth and toss your head
freak out
good news everyone
