Angelica is talking with Dr. Katerina Junghansova from Vet Care Training. Katerina works with helping horse owners and veterinary professionals take care of horses more safely, easily, ethically, effectively, and with less stress.

Katerina is talking about consent and what she means when she talks about a horse giving us consent and how that can look like in her practice. How can we tackle situations where we cant give choice and some practical everyday set up to check there's more option than one for the horse to choose from.

Katerina is passionate about practical training and will also give its loads of advices throughout the podcast. She also teaches courses on the subject and here you will find the self study course we talk about in the podcast: https://vetcaretraining.teachable.com/p/cooperative-care-kick-start-self-study

Reinforcement follows the same principles across species — but bodies, emotions, and contexts differ. In this episode, we talk about reinforcement and reinforcers across horses, dogs, and reindeer, and what cross-species training can teach us about food, movement, arousal, reward delivery, and thoughtful trainer choices.

Reward-based training isn’t just one way of working with horses — it’s a whole world of ideas, techniques, and creative approaches. Here Hannah Weston, Do Groen and Angelica Hesselius talks a little bit about their views on dialect in your practical training and why that enriches the world :P We also go into our mutual project:

https://www.rplushorsesummit.com

At this summit, you’ll meet trainers from across the globe — from pioneers to fresh, emerging voices — each showing how they bring the same core principles to life in their own unique way. You’ll explore practical sessions, watch training in action, and join in theory talks that deepen your understanding. It’s not just about the horses — we’ll also explore reward-based training for us humans, alongside body awareness through Feldenkrais and Yoga. Because the way we move, think, and feel directly shapes our partnership with our horses. Whether you’re a professional or simply love spending time with horses, you’ll feel welcome here. Expect real conversations, genuine connection, and tools you can take home and use right away.
