We started working with Jazz, a 2022 Arabian stud colt, during his 1 year old year. Jazz had no behavior problems, he was just a clean slate with a curious owner. With clicker training we have

taught him to lead safely, allow hoof handling, accept saddle pad and girth, line up at a mounting block, along with encouraging natural exploration with balls and pool noodles and any number of props. Jazz likes to play catch, for one thing (video link here).

Jazz recently started work under saddle, and the new trainer has been delighted with Jazz’s foundation. She reports that Jazz has a level of curiosity and connection with herself that is not typical with young horses.
