To better understand how QuitKick works, please take three minutes to view the video below:
This was taken by a QuitKick customer whose Palomino had been a chronic, lifelong door kicker and pawer. The first half shows him kicking and pawing his door – and as you will see he has done significant damage. It is likely that his behavior will result in injury, potentially serious. The costs to his owner could include substantial carpentry, farrier and veterinarian bills, never mind the emotional cost of an injured horse with a bad habit seemingly nothing will cure.
The second half shows what happens when QuitKick is installed.
The video illustrates the two major advantages of installing QuitKick.
Firstly, after the behavior is corrected by the squirt of water, the horse comes straight back to his door. The reason is that QuitKick is PAINLESS. It is sufficient deterrent to correct the kicking or pawing habit, but because it does not inflict any pain it does not induce any other negative behaviors. The horse is neither afraid of his door or cowering in the back of his stall. Instead, he quickly returns to his door and continues to look out into his yard – the ONLY change to his behavior is that he is no longer kicking his door.
Secondly, as there is NO HUMAN INTERACTION, the correction is completely reliable. Most training regimes rely to some degree of human interaction, but because QuitKick is triggered by the horse itself, it is completely consistent regardless of when the horse kicks the door – the correction applied is always instant and consistent. The horse will not associate any human being with the correction, meaning that in ALL other facets of his life his behavior is completely unchanged.
In this instance, this horse was completely cured of his kicking habit within three days of QuitKick being installed:
