Hey Guys and Gals-
I have a client that I'd like to keep because:
1) He's the Prosecutor and I never know when I might need a favor.
2) They're nice folks
3) They pay.
But... I've been doing their work for several months now and I can't seem to ge the point across that they need more than rope halters on their stock to get them to pay the respect needed... at least when I come to visit.
Mostly the horses are just distracted but they have an overall lack of respect for authority... not mean, just impatient and overbearing.
What is the most effective way to educate clients in the ways of proper training without my having to repeat myself over and over?
I mean, these are obviously educated folks but it's almost like it flies right over their heads!
They are a bit green but have had horses for many years... just not improving in their education.
I know there has to be more owners like them out there.
Thanks,
Scott
