Starting clicker training–head turning

My clicker training DVDs I ordered from Georgia Bruce at Click for Horses arrived!

I watched the first half hour of so today, then this afternoon put the first idea into practice – get your horse to turn away it’s head.  The DVD was clear and easy to follow, and I did exactly what I was shown, I hope.  Success! Within 6 or 7 goes Tana was turning her head away waiting for the click.  I stopped once I used up all the treats – chopped apple and carrot.  Then later when it was feed time I tried it again with a few handfuls of feed – it worked well.

Here is a video with the same idea from Mary at Stale Cheerios:
