Percheron Gelding

Arrived at Mission: Wolf in 1998

Ikus’s Story

Ikus was pivotal in teaching us mirroring. He was often a challenge and refused to be caught. For us, a life-changing lesson was learned in resolving his resistance. This horse changed the way we approach the wolves that are very shy and scared. Gaining trust and bonds is an important achievement for life-long caretakers. Read the details of how we learned to gently change his behaviors in “A Walk in Connection”.
