Leadership Outside the Box: Huggy Bear
I met Huggy Bear seven years ago while purchasing another pony for our programs.
Huggy is a small, round, completely adorable Halflinger pony. He could be the poster pony for the Gund stuffed animal company. One look at Huggy and I bought him on the spot.
In the six years I’ve owned Huggy, I’ve discovered that inside that cute, cuddly body is a tough, unyielding mind, seemingly suspicious of all humans. I have spent hours out in the field watching him gallop around and away from anyone trying to catch him. I have watched him drag countless people out the arena door. Huggy can run through a door backwards faster than most of my horses can go forwards. And yet I have also seen Huggy follow someone around the arena obviously seeking to make a connection.
This horse, with his unique issues and behaviours, has forced me to look at my leadership role in a much more creative way: For the first time I had an employee who couldn’t or didn’t want to be a team player. When we bring a horse home to our farm we consider it a life-long commitment. On the other hand we run a business and we prefer that our horses earn their keep. I believe strongly that animals, as well as people, need to be involved in productive work. I had to find a way to work with Huggy so that he could be part of our team in some capacity.
The training methods that worked so well with my other horses had little or no effect on Huggy but I continued with my accepted system for quite a while. It took me a long time to realize that I was caught in the trap of ‘that is the way we always do things here’. I was comfortable in the routine of those methods while skirting around the fact that Huggy was not becoming any more compliant.
I had to throw all my preconceived notions of horse training out the window and focus on really listening to Huggy’s point of view. Only then did I notice that every time he was stressed or uncomfortable, instinct took over and he would fall into a pattern of escape by running backwards. This was not a planned, thought-out response but an unconscious and instinctive pattern of behavior. Huggy didn’t care that his behavior wasn’t a positive long-term solution. It was an avoidance strategy that served its purpose in the moment.
Something was causing and or/reinforcing his actions. I know from my experience as a teacher of thirty years that in order to alter or extinguish negative behaviour we need to identify the real underlying cause of the behaviour. This is a simple and obvious concept but one most of us tend to overlook. As Stephen Covey says, “We want to be judged by our intent but we judge others by their behaviours.” I needed to understand Huggy’s actions from his point of view.
I also know from my teaching experience that people with autism and sensory issues often seek out deep pressure which calms down their over-responsive nervous systems. The more I studied Huggy’s behavior, the more inclined I was to think that some of his issues could be sensory related. In Huggy’s case I theorized that pulling backwards against his halter and lead rope could be providing that very rewarding deep pressure.
We had been trying unsuccessfully for several weeks to convince Huggy to stand beside our large mounting block. He would back away from the block every time and as I stood firm with the rope taut we would end up in a tug of war. This time, as Huggy pulled away from the block I moved with him. I kept the lead rope slack so that he could not create pressure for himself through the rope. When he finally stopped I calmly signaled for him to move forward and waited for him to make his decision. Huggy walked forward and stood quietly at the block. It had taken less than five minutes to solve an issue we’d been struggling with for months.
Although Huggy will always be the same pony I purchased, my relationship with him has improved significantly. I am learning to really listen to him and he is learning to trust me. I have a useful horse at last. In return he has taught me to look at difficult situations and difficult employees as opportunities to think outside the box.
I’m now more aware of unconscious behavioural patterns in others and in myself. In order to truly understand the actions of other people I’ve got to take the time to listen and learn more about their underlying motivations. In teaching me and the rest of us these lessons, Huggy has earned his place on our team.

we tried everything?
I have a friend and she is in a abusive relationship. her boyfriend of 5 years hits her, he controlls her life, he tried to rape her, and he has put a gund in her face, and hes a coke heaad. She knows she cant marry this guy because of the abuse but it seems like lately she will do it just to make him happy and just because for some reason she has a little feelings left for him. Then recently she met a guy and we all think hes a great guy, she has told us that she is falling in love with him, she even calls him love. She has told us that she wants to be with him but for financial reasons she is with her boyfriend. But recently it seems like after all he does to her, she doesnt want out. Is there a point to where we have to say ok this is how its gonna be for the rest of her life. she says she doesnt love him, but yet she stops at every oppurtunity to get help, we told her she could stay with us, and for her to call the cops but yet she does none of it. its like she doesnt want help
If she won't let you help her, there's nothing you can do. It's ultimately her decision. It may be that she's been with him for so long she is afraid to not be with him. Probably he has verbally abused her, made her feel that she is incapable of taking care of herself, that no one else would want her, that she's worthless - these jerks do that, like putting someone else down makes them feel better about their loser selves. Just keep offering help, let her know that you'll help her get out safely when she wants you to. But she still has to come to a point where she decides. However, if you ever see him hit her, you can call the cops yourself and have him arrested. As long as you witnessed the attack yourself, it doesn't matter if she refuses to testify because you saw it happen. Good luck.
