Tommie Turvey is a professional stuntman and animal trainer. All animals are trained in the safest manor possible. Tommie understands and follows American Humane Association (AHA) guidelines.

Let’s start with the opposite of length in the neck. When we train a horse behind the vertical, a little or a lot (LDR), the nose is close to the body of the horse. When we measure the length of the line from the withers to the ears, this length increases but this is not the biomechanical length we need for a correct posture and good movements (Picture below).
