Amazing. 🙂 In any other horse trainer's hands, this could have gone horribly wrong, but you are the perfect trainer for this girl. Congrats on the two years!
I'm an Ontario Canada country type guy. Never had a horse, but was always in areas where there was lots. The farmer across the road from me had two daughters who were into barrel racing and practiced in a field across from my driveway. Many hours sat in my chair in my driveway watch them and their friends practicing. Watching your video reminds that of those days. You and your horses and the mountains in the background and what you do is beyond awesome. You must feel you're in heaven. I'm a senior now and live in a small city with health issues and watch videos of folks like you that rescue animals that wouldn't have a chance at a good life otherwise. It's videos like this that rescue people like me that see there is hope for everyone and everything.
Even though I have followed her journey this whole time I was kinda hit with just how much she has evolved, both physically and in terms of ger training. You have done an absolutely amazing job raising her so far ❤ I'm excited to continue to follow your progress ❤
It is amazing how different it can be to work with a truly wild little filly - one that was taken away from her heard way too soon - than a domesticated one. It is such a terrifying process for her but she has done SO well thanks to you’re gentleness, patience, and love. I look forward to her continuing journey with you. Well done CC!! Well done.
Me too !! I would buy her & maintain her training using gentle techniques like the TRT Method or Warwick Schiller's Attuned Horsemanship methods. Both are All about the horse being comfortable in their own environment !!
Scarlet reminds me of my rescue dog Chili. Two years ago, a sickly puppy showed up on my doorstep. I healed her up and started training her, while I searched and searched for a good home for her. I couldn't find one try as I might. It took me a minute to realize that Chili was destined for me, I for her. Same for Scarlet and CC. It's so heartwarming to see them together.
I like your slow and easy approach, especially with a horse who has fear issues. She is such a beautiful filly and I'm so happy she found you. I don't want to think about what would have happened to her if you had not taken that leap of faith. Thank you for sharing her journey. 😍💖
This channel has become a regular - I have never been a horse person - they have scared me with a very small brain and a lot of muscle - now I understand how patience and a high level of knowledge and talent can transform into something very fascinating🙏🤓
I always loved horses growing up with 50s Westerns but really knew nothing about them. These videos have shown me what it really takes to raise horses and train them. This old girl will never ride again but I enjoy seeing the journey. 🥰
Thank you for this wonderful overview of Scarlett’s journey - and yours with her. She is so lucky that you found her and are giving her the careful and compassionate and skilled training she deserves. She is gorgeous.
Miss Scarlett is a very Blessed horse indeed. I can't even wrap my head around of what would have happened to her without your keen eye and heart. Likely slaughter like so many others. You have a lot to be proud of. ❤❤❤
When I was a little girl I always wanted to catch a wild horse, knowing nothing except what I saw on TV Westerns. Little did I know all the work involved. Love your videos👍👍
Just love Scarlet! Beautiful and intelligent. Thought of you CC yesterday. Hubby and I went on a trail ride to celebrate 44 years of marriage. Beautiful sunny day with the fall leaves 🍂 just glowing in the sunshine. This 67 year old still loves trail riding. Still a novice rider but just love the way riding a horse can .make me feel so happy. Nugget was a good horse. He likes loose reins so that is what he got. My hubby wore a vest and gloves in his pocket for me in case I got cold like you did on your ride. Guess I'll keep him. Thank you ever so much for your channel. Love it and you inspire me to keep getting on a horse. 🐎 ❤❤❤❤😊😊
P.S. They wouldn't let me use the step up. Insurance people she said say,"If you can't get on a horse without a step up, then you don't belong on a horse!! Made this lady mad so I said ,"Then get yourself over here and get me up!" She laughed and obliged me. 😊 🐎
I do believe you're the reason for her height. Your skills and knowledge with feed have given her that advantage. Her size as a mature horse should benefit you.
I’m so happy you found yourself buying her for just 25 dollars ❤ Still just a “foal”, of course insecure and scared at first… but over time, Scarlet has grown and one can see how much your love and care has made her the way she is now 👏 Thank you CC for sharing this and letting us see the way Scarlet has grown into a beautiful mare💖💯💕😍Thank you CC💝💝Waiting for the next one 💓💓💓
I know what is going to help you with all of your horses. When you finally settle down on your own piece of land. The horses will see you living right there with them. No more driving in, no more disappearing on them, being able to make them feel safer knowing that you are there. Being able to hear them at night. I know it's going to help all of them. They will smell your presence and feel much safer having you right there living with them.❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, This is such a wonderful gift. Thank you for making the video. It lets me, a complete non-horse person, understand what is going into training a young, and in this case wild, horse. She is such a beautiful animal. Her trotting around in the round pen without a rope her movement is so perfect. This is a side of me that has worked with large working breed dogs before. I so love that perfect movement, that I don't know if i has a name. In translation we just call it "step". Steg without the translation. Some animals, including humans, just have it and this girl seems to have it. I'm already waiting for what you are going to let me "vicariously" see and, to a small extent, live in your next video. Yours, Ann
Sweet, sweet Scarlet ❤ thank god she ended up with you so she didn't have to endure more suffering than she already had ❤ from a scared little thing to a brave young mare ❤
Scarlet is so lucky to have you, as are all your horses and cats and Huckleberry. Your methods warm my heart. 💗Thanks for sharing your kindness and your daily life.
Loved watching This video..... From a scared Weanling, to a Stunningly Beautiful, young 2 yr old horse that is coming along nicely & All Thanks to your Persistence, Patience & Kindness CC !! 🥰❤️🥳🎂🎉🤸
This was beautifully shot and edited, thank you for the overview of her time with you. It's wonderful to see someone have the patience to bring out the best in their horses. May your partnership be long and loving.
Scarlett is absolutely gorgeous 🥰 . You being able to take your time with her as really helped her so much . We can all see the bond between the two of you is growing stronger . Thank you for giving her and the others the home they so deserve. 😊
I shudder to think what this filly’s fate would have been if you had not been there and seen her potential CC. Slow and steady has helped Scarlet blossom into a beautiful mare with a curious nature. Thanks for the look back, simply amazing transformation. 😊
Thank you for this lovely video dedicated to Scarlet! She has come so far in a short time. I look forward to watching her continue her training. You're doing a fabulous job with Scarlet! ❤
She has really blossomed into a real beauty. Miss Scarlett O’Hara (her name in my head)..is mighty fine indeed. Hope her and Zig form a strong friendship..they would both benefit from that I think.
CC this video gives us a comprehensive look at your considerable and extensive training knowledge. We appreciate you , Scarlet, Ziggy and all the members of your beautiful herd.
Gosh…look at her…❤what a Beauty she has grown into, she has legs of Steel and you can really see the good care and nutrition she has received and how these Reservations Horses can turn out if properly cared for…well done…❤❤
Loved watching Scarlet’s transformation, she has really become a gorgeous horse, I still wonder how tall she will be. I really love your patience with the horses!❤❤❤
She is very bright and learns quite fast. She shows courage learning about the things that frighten her. I think she'll be a strong minded fearless horse when she's mature.
She's turned out lovely. You have a good eye and an excellent grasp of veterinary matters, I think. Your horses clearly love you (even Nigel 😂). Consistent calmness and kindness does that. One day I'll flee the city and find my own four-legged partner... until then, thank you for the secondhand buzz 😊
She wouldn’t have made it so far without your unbending intent! Congratulations to you both. Magical creatures, I never get tired of watching them. Cinderella story for sure! Ziggy can be the prince, he certainly looks the part 🤩love you and the herd 🙏🕊️❤️
Scarlet has come on so much since you got her. That is down to your wonderful training and kindness, and patience. She is a really beautiful looking horse. I love😊 your videos. Thank you. ❤
Sort of like MY FAIR LADY where Liza Doolittle gets a big makeover! Scarlett is a real Lady now. Absolutely beautiful. You saved her life, really. You GAVE her a different life. Heartwarming to see her story unfold. Thank you.
Scarlet is doing so well now and she should continue to grow and expand her learning. She would probably be a good partner with Ziggy for endurance riding.
She's so beautiful she could be a show horse of some sort! I guess, with RU-vid---she already is, lol!! So glad you could see her potential that day at the auction.
Really nice work with this ultra sensitive girl. Your patience has paid off. She’s a gorgeous girl and turning out to be the perfect pal for Ziggy. They are two misfits that just happen to fit together hand in glove.
I think she will make a wonderful trail horse for you! Please keep her. You have been making such wise decisions training your horses! And you put your heart and soul into your rehab mission. They trust you completely. Raising Scarlet from a weaning makes a special bond!
Wonderful to watch Scarlet's transformation, very much thanks to your loving patience. She's grown into a real beauty! This video made my day! Lovely! I'm looking forward to following her journey.
Oh CC I have been out of town so just got home and I stared tearing up the minute I saw her let you touch her. Wow CC you are The Horse Whisperer ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍
A really interesting video seeing Scarlet's progress in health and demeanour under your care. She is shaping up as something really special in looks and spirit; a definite character, but that seems to be true of all of your horses.
Wow! I know how hard it is to work with wild, flighty animals. In my case, they're usually a lot smaller lol. You two have made great progress. Scarlet looks amazing. Looking forward to what the future holds!
Give yourself a pat on the back! Scarlet is an absolute credit to you. I doubt that there are many people around who would have the patience, time and knowledge you have for a filly who only deserves the best ❤
I love watching Scarlett. She’s absolutely beautiful and an incredibly stunning horse. You were right when you said how satisfying it is to watch her training from beginning to end to the most current. i am looking forward to seeing how she and Ziggy get along and if he’s able to teach her a few things. He’s definitely another of your horses I thoroughly enjoy watching. He’s so much more of an enigma however. Just when I think we’ll be able to figure out what’s going on in his head, he throw’s us a curve. Hmmm!!! Thanks for all of the hard, hard work you put into these horses. You are a very impressive woman with an incredible amount of talent, dedication, and determination. I hope that those in your inner circle realize and know what they have in you.
