Excerpt from Progressive Control Over Colts and Horses: Practical Instructions in Controlling and Educating the Colt and Horse
In this volume I have endeavored to introduce to the farmers and horsemen of the United States a method, by the use of which they would be enabled to control and educate their colts and horses by appealing to the intelligence of the animal, instead of subduing and torturing them into submission, as was the result of every war-bridle system ever introduced. I will not attempt to disparage the methods taught by others: for when we consider that there is not one unruly horse to-day where a dozen existed twenty years ago, we must give them all, from Rarey down, a fair share of the credit for the result; for the introduction of their systems was the means of making useful and valuable many horses that otherwise would have been worthless. The war-bridle or rope systems, together with their accompanying methods of throwing, whirling and fettering, though all right in their day and the best then known, are too complicated and require too great an exertion to be used by any but an experienced horseman. These methods are too harsh, also, and leave the animal's mouth lacerated and sore, his muscles strained and his body bruised; in fact, the horse is punished after he has obeyed, which is torture and should be avoided in order to get the best results. Another objection is, that the use of the rope system does not get the colt or horse under control of the bit and reins where he belongs, and without which no colt or horse is properly educated.
