It’s not abuse. It really depends on how they were trained. It’s like saying barrel racing, racing, dressage, training saddlebreds to move, show jumping, etc are all abusive. It really depends on how they were trained
suprised to see this video in my feed as i never watch anything related to it. sitting here after a nursing exam that I didn’t do so well on, and this video suddenly reminded of when I used to feed the ducks with my mother as a little girl. miss her so much, videos like these record the most precious moments in our lives! god bless you two!
Living is hard. My tremors are getting worse and make everything difficult. Quite frankly, the only thing keeping me going these days, is the birds in the park. There's a flock of about sixteen geese that apparently are wintering down with the ducks, and they all gather around me for feeding in the morning. It's an important meal for them, and has become important to me. It's called purpose, sadly. Beats sitting around the house and crying all day...
@@jimhamilton1048 It's a gift to be able to see the beauty in the little things in life like sitting down and feeding the ducks. Life indeed is hard and it always seems to get harder as time passes by. I think of times in my life that were once close and dear to me that have now past and I won't be able to get back to. Spending time with animals and especially outside where there is fresh air makes a tremendous difference in the health of our minds! I looked at your website and your cat looks just like mine! I wish you the best!
All this people saying this about horses they don't even know how the train like for real. They just believe that the horse suffering. You know how much money each horse it's value no one it's gonna hurt a horse this expensive. You guys should stop the rodeo and cowboy culture after all that's also Mexican
You are right, It is unfair. Most training is very gentle I have seen it. You can tell when a horse is relaxed & enjoying a workout much like people work out. Just because a few people are abusive does not mean everyone is. Don't let it get to you, in America there are people who try to shut the rodeos down too. It is different if there is actual abuse going on, of course that should be stopped. But when people are good to their animals and train with gentleness & love, there is no reason to hate. It is unfounded criticism.
These horses are fine. They are eaten by a lot of people, so this is wonderful. It developes love for horses as sentient beings.

White folks care more about animals than they do about their own children.... There are videos on white folks doing sports regarding horses and what not and there is no white folks hating them for mistreating the horse, yet they come to videos showing Mexican horse dancing and their "Karens" come out....if you dont believe just look at all white videos on horses and Mexican videos on horses and look at the comments!!!
Y’all need to stfu about the “abusing” like no they aren’t abused into this. Just because some horses from others parts of the world get beat into this type of thing doesn’t mean all do. Obviously it isn’t just beating them to dance there are other ways like teaching them right and being patient. So stop assuming and just enjoy this because not all animals do this. Also whoever is going to judge the dancing on how bad it is, just know it depends on the song and the training the horse has had.
Horse trainer here - i don't have very many problems with this video. My only problems are the few horses who looked slightly uncomfortable with the bits, but they weren't being absolutely tugged on.
I understand people have their different opinions on these type of things , but yes. Their is cruel people who unfortunately train their horses in a cruel way. But their is also those who care and are patient on training their horses. Also just because the people in this video are mexican, dont go and hate on mexican people who have dancing horses. More of the dancing horse industry, treats their horses well. I own a horse that is a 6 yr old andalusian stallion, I've owned him his whole life. He started dancing when he was around 2, he started moving by himself in the round pen when we turned on music. Now most of the time he hears music, he starts to dance. He loves dancing. Now to the bits and spurs. Bits arent necessary but not all horses can be ridden without them. Not all horses behave the best without a bit, it gives more command and direction. Also, not all bits are horrible. As a matter of fact, the bits us mexican use are very light and we have a scroll thing on them that the horses can play with when it's in their mouth. Also, using bits depends on the hands of the rider and the horses mouth. Spurs; not necessary but useful for direction and an extension of the foot. Now luckily, these people arent jabbing the spurs on the horses side. Barrel racers usually use spurs kick a lot so they are causing the horse more pain. Think about other sports and such that also use spurs and bits before you hate on horse dancing. :')) Edit: dancing is also carried in their genes and blood
Hm.. no? Not all the time. It comes in the genes aswell. Also, their is different methods to train a horse to dance. Sometimes they learn it on their own. My 6 yr old andalusian stallion who've I owned his whole life, started dancing on his own. And anytime he hears music now he starts dancing.
Not all people train their horses to dance by doing that. It gets annoying that people make assumptions really quickly on how they are trained. It kinda makes Mexican equestrians look bad in some kinda way. I’m not really familiar when it comes to the training methods but I’m sure that not all of them abuse the horse in a way. Anyways have a good night or day and maybe re-think about your comment because it makes others think all of it is true and then start spreading more hate.
