I wish all horse owners would treat their horses with the respect and love that you provide.You are an amazing human being and I wish you many many more years with your horses. Beatrice
I love them there the best. When l get one l will take care of them also feed them wash them clean them also be gentle to them l love god for everything he gave to us and we always will.
I approved of all the methods used except for the lying down one. I have never used it. However I do see an amazing relationship between horse and man here. A "broken" horse, trained in the old cowboy way, does not follow his master, he does not rest his head on his masters shoulder, or "groom" or "play" with his clothing. This man does have a beautiful connection with his horses. And as all Arab owners know. You can't "dominate" an arab like you can a QH. Only mutual friendship works
God blessed me with the responsibility of a Egyptian Arabian stallion to care for.. Best friend, trusted and loved. The bond with this horse is the most cherished. Arabian are a gift.
In parts of the US, most horses do live in box stalls 10 or 12 feet b 10' to 12'. They may get out of the stall for an hour or so a day for riding, though many owners can't get to the boarding stable every day to ride. In some areas, turnout, if available, is in 'paddocks' so small that there may not be enough room for a horse to trot around, much less canter or gallop. If the stall is clean and the horse is fat, this is all considered 'good care'. Yet owners who keep their horses out on pasture with access to shelter as the animal chooses are sometimes criticized for not giving their horses good care, particularly if the horse(s) are lean and FIT instead of fat. It seems that fewer and fewer people have ever seen truly fit horses, (or dogs). Land availability and cost are issues for many horse owners, yet we should do what we can to encourage the management of horses to allow them to have as much time outside in roomy paddocks/pastures as possible.
I am an arabian horse at heart, the wind of the desert is my playground inside my head , i feel the power of the horse legs in my nerves, that power run through my blood giving me energy to stay alive.......
Watching this video almost made me cry. It's amazing to see how a person can bond with an animal using their language. It's the same with all animals: horses, dogs, cats. People always want them to understand human language and do what they want them to do without understanding what the animal is telling them. And it turns out, if you use the animal's language all you have to do is ask and they'll do anything for you, even die.
الله يعز الإسلام والمسلمين I bear witness that there is no deity worthy to be worshipped but Allah ☝🏻❤️and I bear witness the Muhammad is His servant and messenger.
My dream would be that people got connected by the horses, they are so sensitive and can teach people to reconnect again. Horses do not know hat ride, thats the best lesson we people can get. The world needs you people! Thank you for sharing this wisdom.
So glad they rescued that beautiful stallion from America. There's a lot of people who don't know how to train a horse like him...sad to think that this Arabian would of been put down because of someone's ignorance.
unfortunate alot of american trainers suck they are so full of themselves. monty was the only true horse whisperer in america. he believed like this guy .
It's wonderful to see something of the orgins of the desert dancer I own today. I learned alot from this and was so entertained by this informational video. Thanks for posting, I very much enjoyed this.
My friend is terrified of my arabian. I tell her shes only afraid because she doesnt understand him. She cant catch him in the pasture or load him in the trailer. Well he wont let her but he will let me. Im not a profressional trainer so its not wise for me to lay my horses down as he showed in the video, but when they are lying down in the pasture I will lay on em and stand as he did. My horses are very gentle.
+orixxboy well, it been centuries like that. And that's how Arabian Horses survive in that harsh environment. There is not a lot grass over there as you know.
So many people remarked about the horse's diet: camel milk and dates. Okay. How much pasture do you see in the desert? None, right? So, what to feed the horse? That's right: milk (the perfect food & produced by a fellow denizen of the desert) & dates for carbs & roughage. Equines are herbivores but during the Crimea War, German allies of the British who were mounted troopers kept their horses always at peak condition by sharing their beef rations with them. British mounts by comparison were always in poor condition because they did not receive the extra protein. (See The History of Horsemanship for the story). And then there's Sgt. Reckless of the Marines who ate whatever her fellow soldiers ate, including beer & peanut butter. She was a little Mongolian mare used to racing, but the Marines bought her to carry ammunition up the mountains of Korea in the heat of battle, and the dead & wounded down the mountain. Her memorial can be seen at Quantico. Based on what's available, as long as the necessary nutrients are present horses can thrive!
Every mammal starts life on a diet of pure milk. So milk is not such a strange food for them, after all. Most any adult animal will drink milk if they can get it. If predators are lucky enough to kill a lactating female (deer, antelope, cow, etc) they eat the udder with the milk inside first. It's interesting that people make a fuss about feeding milk to these Arabian horses, which is a traditional practice used for many centuries. Yet people seem unaware that swine (hogs and their pigs) are NOT herbivores, but omnivores that evolved eating animals as well as plants, and therefore ought to have animal products in their diets.
In the olden days in south africa, when the tollgate system was still in use, my father told me that a horse with 4 white legs/ stockings did not have to pay tollgate fees. Horse could pass free.
This man reminds me of Monty Robert who also uses body language to communicate with horses. He watched mustangs and learned how the communicated with each other. It's wonderful to see people teach animals though non violent ways. It can also be applied to people- respect and kind but firm is a better teacher the violence and abuse, for all living things. I respect this man, I wish him well with all the horses he teaches.
The most loyal friend I ever had and wish I could have another, loved watching this hate watching western pleasure Arabians with the ton of metal in their mouths and a load of tack. (sorry if I have offended anyone not meaning to) I rode mine with rope halter bare back no other horse did i ever have like her, I miss her so much and was with her right at the end. Praise be to God for his wonderful creation The Horse.
While the very beginnings of the Arabian horse are hidden in the desert sands most experts agree Arabians originated in the vicinity of the Arabian Peninsula. The Bedouin tribes trace their common history with Arab horses back to 3000 BC and keep meticulous ancestral records or ‘pedigrees’. The Bedus used the horses for beasts-of-burden and war mounts. The Arab’s hardiness is a result of the harsh desert climate and terrain they evolved in
if you can breathe the spirit of horses you will understand in deep who am i .... i understand how you work with your horses i do the same with some of my horses. is so important to give time to trust us. i was in Morocco in october and i ride the arab stallions from that area i wish i could visit your area too.
Your training methods are wonderful. It's nice to see people appreciate and respect the Arabian breed as you do. My first Arabian was destined to the killers, but a kind lady took her in and sold her to me. She was extremely Loyal and I loved her til the day she took her last breath in my arms.Her name was Nyte Flyte,and she taught me much about the breed. I now have 3 Arabians that do endurance racing. I really love this intelligent breed
him putting the horse down is similar to what I was taught we call it sacking out..Ali has a great technique for sure.I dont believ in the whole horse wisperer idea but like him I do believe in the ability of reading a horse an understanding them..Great vid glad another on here sent me the link..
I adore Arabians. I used to own three little fillies but after working with them and several others on an Arab ranch I decided paints would be better for me. Either way, Arabs are still beautiful and I would love the opportunity to take one on as my trail horse. It's true that Arabs trust more, but I must also add that they hold grudges too. They are intelligent beyond belief ;)
One of the best clips I'v ever seen. Yeah, in the heart of the arabian desert, there you will find an oasis of arabian horses... If you`r ever down in Texas, look me up. Thanks alot for the clip.
dear wealthy Shaikh,,,, will you please help the poor poor horses in Egypt and other places that are emaciated and worked to death? go and see them,,,, please help them.
Ali, you are a physician in horsemanship. You got your doctorate in the desert. Your horse Satin is a god. How long were you with LionHeart before you laid him down and cracked the whip over his head? Gaining respect as their leader, providing safety and teaching loyalty is what you have done. If I had a teacher like you.... Great video!
This is really an excellent clip. It's something for all arabs to be proud of. As a 7'leejee girl, it brings joy to my heart to see this clip. I was wondering if this was broadcasted on any American channels? I hope it did. Thanks for sharing it. Maga9art o ya36eek el 3afyah!
I enjoyed this video and seeing how the horse from USA who was suppopse to be dangerous became so wonderfully loyal. would love to learn more. I think that making the horse lay down like that is far better than having to have him "put down" (killed) for being too dangerous to his owners.
He ask respect as he gives respect full 110% and not says I love you, he does love its animal as noting else a like. It is explained easy but what you hear and see is the tip of the iceberg. (I see you)
Notice how he said " how the native americans did" The old way. They have done DNA testing on american wild mustangs and some of them are of Arabian descent.
Clarification: The rope looped over the head of the horse forms a halter, also called a head collar in some countries - not a bridle. A bridle has a bit which goes in the horse's mouth. (The so-called 'bitless bridles' are actually more like a halter or caveson with reins than true bridles.)
I have no favorite horse breed because I see beauty and importance in each breed. But Arabians are special because my best friend is an Egyptian Arabian. I think that Arabians are generally the most versatile breed and once you have it, they are extremely safe and loyal. Unfortunately, most ppl (in US) don't know how to befriend them and all they see are crazy hot bloods. The QH craze and stock prejudice makes showing with Misty very difficult here in America. I use the same method w/ my horses.
If I were a horse the best I could hope for would be, Ali Al-Ameri, as my trainer he builds such trust and rapport with these animals it's amazing to watch. Where does the horse end and the trainer begin they are like one together.
@SabaeanYared i'm sure it's packed with nutrition- very interesting!! But what about fiber/forage?? how do they get forage-roughage? Our horses (all arabians) LOVE the palm frongs that fall from our trees
@michellesolstar this most human way can horse understand it, compared what other trainers do, this one the bedouin way and believe they treat horses better than anyone in the world. or do you prefer a horse that can kill his owner when he get scared.
wow i have only ever owned arabian horses my first at age 8 was a thee year old arab gelding, i had never ridden before within two weeks we were inseparable he taught me to ride and lived into his 30,s in honoured retirement, my newest arabian i s a 2year old filly, she came from a stud and had little interaction with humans she wll lead ican rug her ect groom her, she never runs away, but i have never broken in a horse myself i have watched others but all my former horses were already broken in, i need t build a round yard by my self as 53kilo female this will be hard but no other way , does anyone have any ideas to make the process easier my property is very hilly wiith huge paddocks so a round yard on one of the few areas that are level plus a shelther is needed as well, i dig the posts holes by hand and am jealous of those able to afford those pre fab yards1
