Are You Accidentally Teaching Your Donkey to Kick?

Every interaction with your donkey is teaching something — whether you realize it or not. In this video, Dan and I work with four different donkeys at very different stages of training: • Introducing first touch using advance and retreat • Building comfort while haltering a nervous donkey • Preparing a donkey to pick up their feet — without accidentally teaching them to kick Many kicking problems don’t start with “bad” donkeys. They start with small moments of pressure, timing, and release that unintentionally reward the wrong response. We’ll show you what to watch for, how to avoid creating defensive behavior, and how to set your donkey up for confidence instead of resistance. If you’re starting a young donkey — or fixing holes in the foundation — this matters more than you think. Because what you reinforce today becomes their habit tomorrow. — If this helped you, let us know in the comments: What stage is your donkey currently in? ⸻ 🐴 New here? Welcome.
