Andre 3000's Journey from Reject to Dream Horse 

What a beauty he is. I can see why you were attracted to him. Sturdy build, four white socks, double maned. I am so pleased you helped Andre find a new home. Just shows that the horses that get overlooked can turn out the very best. Thank you so much for posting.

An absolute beauty. He looked like a worthwhile chance. Even wild he never appeared mean. At least not by what you showed us. I'm glad he has his partner.

Thank you so much for making this video!! My daughter never gave up hope, she has always ridden and wanted her own horse and you made all this happen! God Bless you and what all of you do for these wild mustangs. You are special people, especially Isidro, the trainer. I cried watching this journey for Bugsy, named after her father-in-laws horse. Thank you again!!

Wish I could love this 3,000 times instead of just liking it once. ❤️❤️❤️

What a lovely pony can understand why he caught your eye. His new mistress is very lucky

All horses and animals are beautiful, how shameful that most of human kind just dont have the ♥ heart to see it that way. But people like you are no doubt doing your very best to give them a proper safe life. Good work 👍😊

Just a heart felt thanks for all you do for these beautiful wild horses !!!

I keep rewatching this because Andre is such a handsome boy!

My dream horse, a mustang mare from Wyoming, came to me suddenly in February of 2011 with a 6 month old filly by her side. I was so fortunate they stayed together. She is the horse I waited my whole life for. I've had a number of beloved companions over 50 years but .... my Ooh Gee Nah Lee is the prize. We have learned so much from each other. The journey will continue for many years to come, God willing.

Truly beautiful horse. This kind of shows that any feral mustang can be trained regardless of their age as they are naturally gentle animals who have a proclivity to follow.

What a precious life you saved! Thank you both! Andre is a stunner.

The length of your video rarely needs an apology when you are providing such great training information. I think you have a great thing with your voice over detailed info on each step ....AWSUM !!!

Love this story. Amber, you definitely have a talent for bringing the story to life with such incredible, raw emotion. So good you noticed this sweet boy and helped him find his forever home. She's a lucky lady and he's a lucky pony!

This video over powered my emotions with love, (I caught a young Stallion in Carson City (NV) who was a domestic turned out) causing me many issues with the local authorities, Chris Miller a local State brand inspector intervened and I was able to purchase him after gelding and vaccinations. One hot shot trainer said "Why don't you just go buy "Tony the pony" instead of wasting your time on a mustang!" "Reno" needed a home and I needed Reno in my life! I'm still working with him and expect to ride him this spring.. Smaller horse packed with intelligence.. New subscriber by chance this early sunday morning in Kings River Nevada.. Thank you for all you displayed in this one short video Isidro Espinoza Horsemanship LLC

What a heartwarming video from start to finish! Seeing him with his new owner put a huge smile on my face. Great work!

He looks a lot like my Chincoteague Pony. I love seeing how calm his owner is. Great job training him. And good eye to spot him in the herd! So glad he got a chance.

The narrator sounds like Lindsey Partridge. I just love her training methods. Isidero’s methods are so quiet and patient and Andrey sure respond.

He's just cute as a bug! It was so nice to see his new mom and him "join up. " Lucky little pony. And so pretty too.

Really lovely narration, cinematography, story-telling, scoring... the pace is lovely... You are really doing something special here on so many levels.

Do you ever use clicker training? I had the wonderful opportunity to work with a yearling who was a rescue-not abused or neglected-but no real handling as he lived the wild life. I learned how to do this at Pat Miller's Multi-Species weeklong seminar several years ago. The goal was to have Flash not mind having his feet handled so that he could have hoof care. I had so much fun with this guy. All clicker training and by the end of five days, all I had to do was touch his neck and he'd pick up his foot, bottom side up, on that side. Seeing his eager response to the clicker training put the biggest smile on my face. He liked it, too, evidenced by being friendly to me and easy to catch. The first horse I bought (much to my surprise,) was a nice 15-year old Morgan who had been shown in saddle seat. Since I don't "talk" horse nearly as well as I "talk" dog, I took a clicker training class with Alexandra Kurland. This taught me a way to communicate with a horse through a clicker and treats and I also think it lets the horse know that you are not a "force" trainer and that even if you make mistakes (of which I made many,) the horse gets it that you are not being intentionally mean. In fact, when I had a horse communicator talk to Hula after I'd had her for maybe six months, Hula told her that "I had a lot to learn!" Still, she took care of me. Since then I've done clicker with a rescue work horse who would not let you touch his feet and within one 15-minute session we could easily pick up his foot. Another horse, Jazz, acted like he could not turn his head right or left. Just a bit of clicker and he was offering to turn his head even without my asking. He went to a wonderful new home and when I went to visit at least a year later, as soon as he heard my voice, he perked right up in my direction. So..for someone like myself who does not talk "horse" very well I would highly recommend using clicker training, with or without other methods. Honey Loring

Great video , again Definitely Clydesdale genes . Cant understand the thumbs down idiots . Your giving a well documented video of what and how to do it ! Take care.

Yes, a pretty little horse with handsome strong legs. I'm impressed.

what a beauitiful pony

He stunning. Nice to see there are still people in the world who can and will take a chance on the "under dogs ".

he is absolutely beautiful he has such a gentle face, i wish they could remain wild

I would like to get one like him and just take my time as I don't ride and just like being able to handle a bit. I walked my first mustang for most of the eighteen years I had him. He let kids do anything they wanted.

Such a stout guy! I love Andre's mane & forelock.

Thanks for helping Andre. As I watched him in the trailer, the look in his eyes touched my heart. These poor beautiful horses have no idea what will happen to them in the hands of really mean men in a really mean Bureau.

He loves her, look at his eyes.

This horse looks like he's got Clydesdale in him. He's so beautiful..

He reminds me of a mini clydesdale! Or a clydesdale hackney X with that stunning high step trot and colors+feathering! Sooo handsome!!

So nice to see this KIND & GENTLE approach to training/breaking these beautiful Mustangs, kuddos to Isidro he could teach a lot of Men his tactics and of getting further without the trauma & brutality.

Nice. Enjoyed watching and your clear conversation.

Such a handsome boy! What a great story! Thank you for sharing it 💟

I'm crying!! He found his person!! You can see the love and trust!!

Thank you for giving that horse a chance.GOD BLESS YOU.

Love how he looks so relaxed, his hind leg just resting. Total trust.

He's beautiful... Yes a mini Clydesdales. 💓💜💜💜

Love your work, have taken the opportunity to report some comments for hate speech....don’t let them stop your wonderful work!

I’m at 13:19, but back at 11:00, I said to myself, ‘he looks like a mini Clydesdale’. Honesty. I don’t speak horse-person so I’ll say, his solid build, the mane, feet and feathers, are much like the Clydesdales if watched on Utube.

What a beautiful way of training!!! As my horse is a stout little Guy (1.38) my heart went straight out to hij.

He is beautiful.

Good job you saved him and he done you proud now to make his new owner proud and happy for many yrs to come 🍎🥕🍏🤗

He is so cute! I love his little trot!

Gentling is always the only way.

Beautiful horse with an amazing name

Such a beauty!

Beautiful ❤️

Nice recap. What a beautiful boy!

Awesome!! You both do amazing work with the mustangs. ❤️💕 very happy for this beautiful boy to be in his forever home with a perfect companion 💕💕

Love you 3000 🥰❤️

He is very alert and apprehensive. You all are very patient, understanding, and kind trainers. I think God is very pleased with what you are doing with his beautiful creation, seeing the horse's true value and saving him from a long term nothingness.

Lovely horse & nice calm & patient training. Great!

He is absolutely beautiful! He deserved a second chance

Beautiful horse

Thank you for making this video! I appreciate the running commentary. Very educational. Your husband has such good energy with the horse. He breaks the mold of the typical Charro and it is a welcomed departure. Thanks again, I really enjoyed it. Great way to spend my lunch! Best wishes & blessings for what y'all do for the mustangs. Chokes me up.

Love watching how you are able to help give these horses get a chance at good homes. Andre is a lovely horse so glad you were able to get him and help him find a forever home.

God bless you for being so kind.

Small but mighty! 🔥♥️

I LOVE this litttle guy!!!

You have a great eye.. he's a diamond in the rough!! Even though he was older..he was still trainable.. excellent job you guys!!

I love the two of you. You're both awesome!!

Great job! What a handsome boy!

Such a beautiful horse😁👍so glad things turned around for him😁

Very nice story. It looks as though the young woman has a very good rapport with that horse. Good deal all around.

❤️ so much! So worth what your eye said to go after. 🥰

God Blessed you, Teri. Now I see your smiling face of joy with your dreams fulfilled!!! I am so happy for you and Bugsy!! The video is fantastic! Love you, Mom ❤️❤️😍

Yessss I’ve been waiting for this!!

I'm thrilled

Like the white fethering on the legs

I’m crying watching this. He is amazing! Thank You for seeing how special he was when no one else could.

He’s so pretty!! 💛✨

Wow that was some DURABLE hip paint! Thanks for sharing & giving this cutie a chance to be loved and spoiled for the rest of his life (and not languish in long term holding)

WOW God bless you all and thanks

I love this!!!

Amazing training skills ❤️❤️

Excellent horse

Such an awesome video! The suddle things you talk about that people miss, thank you..

what a beautiful mustang,

What a fabulous pony,in the UK we would probably call him a cob.I have Exmoor ponies and we often don't back them till they are 5 and often older if they have been used for breeding.

Great vid

Love this pony and the way Ya’ll trained him. So patient and not in a hurry but still forward moving. Awesome! Thanks for sharing this and the voice over about what and why you’re doing what you do is so helpful.

He’s quite the beauty...

Love to see this! Also love that he got a great home, he seemed to really like her ;)

What a great outcome. Excellent horsemanship there.

Great video. Great story, trainer, new owner! Lovely 3000!

Wow, so incredible! You guys did such an amazing job--- It looks like his new owner is a good fit, seems to have a nice calm energy and he seems engaged with her. I'm glad she took the initiative to have Isidro continue his training, I bet it made all the difference in the world.

Nice job!

What a great pony, I love stout mustangs and he looks like he could trot forever. I really enjoy these kind of training videos, making a useful horse, none of that chasing around nonsense.

Great job Isidro I take my hat 🧢 off I grow up watching my dad breaking horses 🐎 just for fun but this way is amazing how the horse react more relax I’m always watching you guys videos and I show my dad and he like it next time u guys come to Vegas I’m going to try to be there to say hi in person lol tresmil good name

I’m so glad you explained how even you guys have to start over a lot with some horses, and it doesn’t seem like you are making progress, but you really are. That’s been my experience with the one horse I’ve been training from a yearling to a now 7 yr old. I am mostly self taught combing RU-vid for training ideas and attitudes. I so admire you two! You and Izisdro have been role models for me!

Pretty ,I just seen two Mustangs in the killpen today so sad

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Its amazing. The mustang is named after my favorite lyricist!

What was the phrase? Oh yes. We love you 3000 ❤️

I’m training a mustang next year

wow, hooray!

@13:11 You and I had the same thought about how André looks like a small Clydesdale. He's beautiful & I love the color of his mane & tail. I cannot recall seeing a white/black/flax mane with a bay coat before 😃

❤️

Beautiful face
