The relationship between a cowboy and his horse when working on a ranch cannot be understated. A good horse can often anticipate beforehand what the rider wishes to do when gathering and in the branding pens, making the job much easier and safer. Balance, control, fluidity, and responsiveness add to the choreography of The Dance with the horse.
