Veterinary medicine; Horses; Horse-training; Médecine vétérinaire; Chevaux; Chevaux. 3ia SOME SIMPLE ; CONQUERED. repeat this operation several times, and he will soon learn to lie down by merely raising the near front foot, or lightly tapping it with a whip. To Sit Up.—Lay the animal down as previously directed, having a collar upon him ; place a hobble or strap, with a rmg in it, around each hind foot; take a pair of ordinary driving lines, pass the buckle-end through the collar back to the ring in the hobbles, and buckle them; pull the feet up towards the shoulders, and carry the lines back to the hind quarters, hold them firmly in one hand, or give them to an assist* ant.

By repeating this operation a few times he soon learns to bow by merely pointing the hand towards his breast, or, if learned, by a motion of the foot. In all cases when training horses to perform tricks, it is necessary that they should have a bridle without winkers, or else have the head bare.
