Horse #3

SEAF The People Pleaser

(Submissive Energetic Afraid Friendly)

Soft, sensitive, and very sweet describes this horse that will try and try to please you. They like to be told exactly what you want and then have you help them perform it. This is not your go-it-alone type of horse. They need you for support and can get very rattled if expectations are too high. This horse is in your life for the relationship.

Be a calm and quiet leader
Slow things down until they get it
Love them – honor their Friendly
Reassure constantly
Build a solid foundation

Don’t

Over face them
Skip steps in training
Be loud or crude
Use negative reinforcement

I was actually surprised when Annie came out as this one. I always consider her as dominant. I mean, she is the alpha in the herd, no doubt about that, but I guess to humans, me, she's submissive?

(Submissive Energetic Curious Friendly)

The Goddess is loved by most of the other horses and most people. They are expressive and sensitive and emotional. You will know how they feel.
