Exactly. Sometimes calling ''FIFI COME BACK'' doesn't work and you need to act right away. That dog was in a very dangerous situation and by the length of that whip and the strength he used the impact was minimal and it was more of a ''I WAS TOUCHED'' reaction than a ''I'm hurt'' reaction of the dog to move away. He wasn't injured, he wasn't in pain but he learned a lesson and that's important. I'd much rather see him get a whip than being trampled by a bucking horse. That guy very well saved it
He did a good job. This isn't animal cruelty, this is called breaking a horse. For those of y'all who say this is mean to the horse I bet half of y'all haven't even been on a horse. Get a life.
That horse is not prepared mentally for that kind of 'breaking'. When you train horses you aren't sopuse to break anything. The horse is your friend, and breaking a horse like that will only lead to problems. And before you use your 'if you don't have any experience you can't say that that is abuse', I own 5 horses my self, and have loads of experience on educating young horses. And I would NEVER do that to another living being, that is just cruel and unnecessary.
I've broke a couple horses in my life and some have more of a fit than others about it. One of my colts never bucked but others were insane. It all depends on the horse. He is not whipping or spurring or even jerking on this horse in ANY way. I'm guessing that you are one of those horse owners that says you have the experience but have never actually started or broke a horse in any way? Its different having to break them yourself than just buying an already broke one. Breaking is the term for making them sound in a saddle and not trying to kill you. NOT "breaking" their spirit. Any horse you can jump on and ride without them trying to buck you off is BROKE. If you are as experienced as you say you are with horses you would know that your horses that you ride are "Broke". He is not abusing this horse at all in any way. If a horse is bucking or rearing you MUST ride them out of it to teach them that it is just easier to not buck and to listen. If you don't ride or break a horse simply because it is bucking when you saddle it, you will never get anywhere with it. How would you have broke this horse? Please I would love to know because this horse is a horse that would have never stopped the bucking habit even if you tried to ride it a different way.
Why the hell would you brake a horse instead of train or tame him? I have been riding for few years so you can't say I've never been on a horse or I have no experience. I mean, horse should walk around with saddle and bridle without fear before you mount him and what this video showed... Is not horse who is not afraid. And I thought the goal of training a horse is that he doesn't rear, buck and thet he accepts the rider. So why on earth do you kick that horse when he stops bucking?!? (at 1.05) You should praise him! That is like you're learning him to buck and telling him (with kicks) that being calm(er) is wrong. At least read a good book about horses before trying to train horses. Because what is on this video seems like a man who watched to much cowboy movies. Btw, why do you say break a horse? Why would you want to breake him? It seems like you want to destroy, hurt him. And people are doing this when a title in a video says 'breaking a horse'. Man, some people are crazy.
Wow... Maybe you should mature a little before you try to explain how a horse is trained to ride.. Because I'm guessing if I told you I had a dead broke show/trail horse you would think that it was terrible just because I used broke? That is a common horse term. I'm not sure why you think it's not. Ask any real horse person and they will tell you that. I have owned horses since I was 4, and started breaking at 15. He has a different way of breaking but colts buck when you are breaking them! This horse isn't scared! It's pissed off that there is something up there and wants it off! He is asking the horse for FORWARD MOTION because that is what you do when you ride a horse! You would know that if you had any common sense at all. This horse in particular was stubborn and didn't want to stop bucking, therefore you ride it out and get forward motion WITHOUT the buck BEFORE you praise them. I say breaking because that's a term horse people use to define a rideable horse! We aren't "breaking" their hears or souls or anything! Just making them sound or "broke" to ride. Like breaking in a brand new pair of boots. The level of stupitidy these days is overwhelming!
My friend, you can really ride. I'd have been off in the first 2 seconds. Some horses just buck because they can. This horse may have been tamed but only for ground work ect. Once the saddle is on and you are in it. Its a whole other ball game. Horses have 2 sides to there brain, one side for thinking and one side for reacting. This horse was reacting. In the end, you see no harm come to the horse. The rider did a great job and didn't harm the horse, just rode out the buck. Kudos!!
The point is that all that's avoidable and it's stupid to let it happen and then brag about it - it's like bragging because you didn't fall out of a car you drove over a cliff - it was stupid to drive the car over the cliff, son. You get the horse used to the saddle and don't clap him with spurs and a loose floppy seat all over the place in the saddle and MAKE HIM buck. It's stupid to buck out a horse.
I restarted the thoroughbred in my profile picture. She didn't even want the saddle. I saddled her every day for 5 months fed her and let her wear it all day, every day. When I finally rode her she was quite a bit quieter than this one.
Ok, I have trained horses from scratch and you wanna say I don't have a clue? Wow, I can feel the ignorance. None of the horses I've ever trained even bucked once. I start 'em right. No need for this, whatever this is, but it's not horse training.
Way to stay tied on my friend! I've bucked out many this way and it might be outdated in some people's eyes, but it's best to go ahead and get it out the way. Some people say it's cruel but they are not the ones in the tack. Awesome job!
THE HORSE LOOKS FAT, HEALTHY AND TAKEN CARE OF. HE'S IN A SAFE ROUND PEN. WHEN YOUR TRAINING DOESNT WORK AND YOU GET PILED A FEW TIMES, THEN YOU'LL THINK DIFFERENT ABOUT JUDGING SOMEONE WITH OUT KNOWING THE HISTORY OF THE HORSE. I THINK HE'S DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB. TRY TO BREAK A FEW BRONCY ONES FIRST THEN JUDGE
This isn't actually a hard break, nor is it cruel. The rider ain't beating the horse, the horse is just reacting (bucking) and learning its not working, nor is the rider causing it any pain. Eventually it will stop trying to buck and realise its much less work to just go along with the rider. There are cruel ways of breaking a horse (trying a leg up and riding it etc) but this isn't one of them. Now this is not the easiest way of breaking in but bravo to the rider, well sat and handled he'll have a nice horse at the end. For those of you saying the horse needs to bond, he will when he learns the rider isn't hurting him, but if you somehow think having a horse friendly and trusting of you will guarantee the horse won't buck, you are dead wrong. The tamest of horses will argue and will buck at some stage, its just a natural reaction and its not cruel.
Yes this is harsh but I wouldn't call it abuse. It's a fast break and a buck out, and nobody here knows this horse's history. He could have a problem with bucking people off, or he's simply being broke. It's not slow and steady training, but it works. The horse calms down once he realizes his rider isn't going anywhere and he starts to figure this whole "saddle" thing out. He's not irrevocably scarred from this, and he's likely a work horse who'll spend his days in a field anyway. He's not being forced to do anything complex-simply carry a rider.
You don't understand this at all then because this is just teaching the horse bad lessons. I would agree with you if they were attempting to work him at the same time but they are not doing anything that would distract the horse from bucking, he probably went right back to bucking after this video ended. This is a horrible way to train a horse. Training requires months and months of patience, this is the fast way to show a horse you're boss without any reguard for the horse's well being or safety.
@@ashleighadams5180 Yup. Totally unreliable horse. Wouldn't trust him. At least from this performance. Sell him to a rodeo contractor. Eight years ago. Would be interesting to know what happened to him.
people this is not wrong, the horse is no pain. this guy is a hand who more than likely makes a living on horses so you can all enjoy your store bought beef. buckaroos do not have the time to spend a year in an arena they have a job to do. you have know idea are talking about. ways and traditions that you have no idea about. go ride in your arenas and watch you instructional videos and wonder why is nothing I do working. some of us got work to do. I guarantee this buckaroo has made nicer horse than most of you will ever have the chance to get a pony ride on. and it just might be this horse here. good ride.
Holly shit not gonna lie I would have gotten bucked off of that SOB lol. Cudose to the rider awesome seat. But I would have let him wear that saddle until he didnt feel the need to buck like that. I feel like the ride was rushed but then again like people say he might had a bucking problem before the video. Anyway like I said great seat there buddy!
umm maybe because you don't brake horses especially with SPURS you tame them. you can at least give them a chance to get to know the fences and hay and people and riding. although wise he'll probly have a heart attack like this horse almost did.
The colts I start don't buck and carry on.... This is awful. If you can't start a horse without all this drama then get into boxing since you are clearly seeking a fight.
+Jessica Love you're a damned fool. Folks have been hard breaking colts like this since it started. there's many ways to start a colt, and some people just do it differently. but its fairly clear you dont know much about horses let alone starting them.
+Joe Hampton , You're completely wrong. No news there. Google "Xenophon". Before your time, knew the safest, kindest way was the best way. Google Ray Hunt, he might teach you a thing or two. Doubtful, though.
I just came to read the comments from the 14 yr old girls who's daddies pay a trainer to teach them to ride in circles and change blankets 3 times a day
now that, is a violent horse. why is it so scary, and wild? is it a stallion? or a mustang? it is the craziest horse i've ever seen being broken, EVER!
Normally I don't use spurs while breaking. I once did because the minute he would stop bucking. He wouldn't go nowhere. The horse was 4 years old and I think he should of been in the bucking chutes honestly. But I believe this man is getting the rough out. What works for one, may not work for another. If it works do it. If it don't. Try something else. I knew a guy that would take an unbroken horse on a ride ponying it behind his horse. By the time he got back to the house he was riding it. That fast. Must of.done something right. ARE YOU GONNA RIDE THE SUMBITCH, OR ARE YA GONNA PET IT
Lou Patton LMAO....I had a friend that had the nicest little ranch horse he could do anything with him but every time...and I mean 15 yrs every time he saddled him he'd turn him loose in the corral and he'd buck and squall for 2-3 min. Then he was good to go. Every single time
My dad had a horse like that once..”COLD BACK” is what the old timers called it..buck every time you rode him..then he was good to go. He was a registered TWH who could go all day.
true, broke one last year on a trail ride outside, was the 3rd time riding the pony, he learned more than he would've in a week. My own is quite the bucker, and I'm breaking him in now, he's doing fine with any groundwork and stuff we do, but once you get on him, he goes straight into the air, much like this one in the video. Not the best fun, but he needs to get through that part and just learn to give up..
i live with horses (Showjumpers) since 30 years. And I wonder how some people are able to "suprise" me again and again... this is realy sad, the total opposit of horsemanship...
“horsemanship” lmfao some people don’t have 10 years to break a goddamn horse, some people actually use horses to make a living.. stick to the clean white pants and the show arena Dennis 😂😂😂
when your training a horse for someone who needs it done in a certain time then you get it done cause your not gettin paid to screw around. the colt looks good!
a little info on spurs the smaller the rowel the more aggressive. the bigger the rowel the less aggressive , just common sense that few people can understand for some reason
I like what your saying Kendra your right obviously this horse isn't sacred or he would run. He just wants the damn rider off his bac most colts have a little "piss and vinegar" and thers nothing you can do but ride them out. Well said
Nice job I always leave my dogs loose also. Them horses don't give a shit about those dogs. I rather have the horse used to the dog's right off the bat . Also if you got the balls throw a leg over and ride em out open the gate and go check cows . Not to many people do.
Even if he did whip the dog hard, it probably taught him a lesson not to chase live stock. What would animals rights people suggest that he does to teach the dog not to do that? Sit down and give an intelligent lecture to the dog. Someone commented the dog shouldn't have been out there. Keeping him locked up doesn't teach him shit. The dog needs to learn that is unacceptable behavior, and intense pain the second he does it usually teachs them very quickly not to do that. Good ride cowboy!
LOL honestly people. I find nothing wrong with this video. Just a man riding out a buck, this is how they did it back when. This horse wasn't harmed, this horse wasn't hurt. The guy was just riding the horse.
This is so stupid. Why would you get on a horse that has not even accepted a saddle yet? There are a lot of good horse starting videos out there...this is not one of them. No training occurs in this video.
+Shay McDowell well let me answer your questions for you. you get on the horse that has not accepted the saddle yet because you know how to buck out a horse, and this guy knows how to ride a bronc. this horse will never buck again. if you can't see the training here then you have no idea about horses. its only stupid to people who have neither the ability or balls to do it.
Shay McDowell no its why no commercial trainers do this anymore. no money in making a video sying its gonna be tough and you gotta be tough. not in the horse industry.
That is kinda the point, it does not have to be tough. It can be a smooth and easy process when using good methods. There is no benefit in doing it this way. This way is dangerous for the horse and rider.
Shay McDowell and this gets the job done quickly and efficiently. no more danger to the horse or rider if the rider knows what he is doing. once you get the hang of it it is actually quite easy.
I'll jump on that too haha....thats exactly the way my dad rusty breaks in horses my dad can ride any horse in or outside a corral he'll just jump on it....honestly miss those days
This is very typical of a young horse have a saddle fully cinched for the first time. Nothing can really prepare a horse for the weight of a saddle strapped down except the saddle (it's even in books, spoken by trainers, and taught at my college to use 2 people to get the saddle on then get out of the way as fast as possible in case he explodes). I do agree however that he should not have mounted the same day and done more work with JUST the saddle until the horse was 100% confident with it.
1. That´s not how you are training a horse, this is how you are breaking a horse. 2. Why hit the dog, i cant understand why the dog is in the paddock from the first beginning.
Ha ha Betty you are hilarious. It's absolutely NOT abuse. Not only is a bucking horse an awesome feeling but the results afterwards are rewarding knowing you've broken the horse into a good riding horse. Awesome riding there buddy!! -A fellow natural horseman
I see a lot of people saying this is normal. Its not if the ground work and bases are done correctly. We do the mustang makeover and focus on ground work. You cant ride a horse who doesnt know ground work like the back of the hand. I had a horse that was hard broke "cowboy" broke and she tried to kill everyone. Not always the best way
That dog needed whipped. The only different is its a whip, what do you do when your dog does something wrong, use newspaper? your hand? trust me a whip hurts a lot less! and Dogs need to learn not to chase horses if they are going to make it on a farm
Even with good preparation including round pen work, a horse can still buck. Monty Roberts, after much preparation, puts a dummy on first, THEN has a real rider hop on. When you get a bit older, that might be the way to go. Good Riding!
i do agree, but i also think that if he was so woried about it being crushed then why let it in the pen in the first place, no hate, im just making a point!
Everybody is a damn trainer these days. This cat did a good job with the cards he was dealt. Some are gunna buck no matter what kind of horse whisper shit you try. My dad is the youngest trainer to win the Oklahoma Derby, and my Grandfather has had 5 run in the All American Futurity. So all you "cowgirls" go back to watching RFD or whatever. Half of yall commenting have never been on a green broke horse. Come to oklahoma and let's try some of that "ground work" on a racehorse lol.
But just because you were taught one way and everybody's doing it that way doesn't make it remotely right! So what if your family does all this title winning crap, maybe us "cowgirls" know a thing or two you don't maybe we are trainers maybe you know things we don't in some areas, but don't think for a second your above all of us and that your superior because even if in some cases your our your defiantly going to get your ass handed to you
Kaleb Brooks a guy I'd bought a couple horses from ottb had one that people couldn't handle he had no manners...he bucked jockeys off. He brought him out to turn him out for a month. Now I'm not saying I rode him, I'm good at ground work. I took the pushy sob put him in a rope halter with a big heavy snap on it and in 30 min I had him walking like a gentleman at the end of that loose rope with flags trashbags etc all over him. He was tied to a tree sleeping when the guy that owned him drove in and wondered where that horse came from. He would've made a nice ranch horse but he went back to NM
That statement is such a crock of sh*t, and flat out wrong. But, of course, it depends. If you're a dummy and don't know what you are doing then the horse will likely buck.
The reason the new methods are here (in my opinion) is us modern day cowboys dont have the sand those old time "bronk busters" had and we dont drag enough wet blankets off our horses or put wet ones on. with modern tech. we have more time for ground work. I am glad i was able to work under one of the old timers in my youth, two rides in the pen and he would fling the gate open and we were gone...didnt always come back with our shirts but those horses we BROKE wouldnt quit you in hard times.
Personally I dont see anything wrong with the way this cowboy is breaking in this youngster. He needs to get used to the feel of the saddle. I would've waited a little longer before riding him to give him more time to get used to it but everyone trains differently. At least the rider wasnt hurting the horse in any way. He just sat up there quietly and let the horse have his temper tantrum. Kudos to the cowboy.
I say good job to the rider, all that colt needed was a little time to blow some steam, he didnt do anything to make the horse buck, some colts dont like the feeling of having a saddle on their back, they feel like they cant get rid of it but they get over that pretty quick
I honestly don't see anything wrong with this video. Everyone is talking about abuse, but please enlighten me of the actual "abuse" in this video. Sure, I don't think I'd ever break my horses this way, but it doesn't make it wrong, it just makes it different. Everyone has their own way of doing things, and yeah some ways are just ruthless, but I don't see anything wrong with how this cowboy is doing things, if it works, it works.
oh shut up all you "dog lovers" he was saving it from being crushed by that crazy horse. sometimes you have to choose the small injury over the big one.
In my opinion, if a horse bucks like that after putting the saddle on, and after getting a rider on, it's simply not ready, and you should go back to basics. When i first mounted my coming 4 year old, she was ready, accepted the saddle nicely, and didn't bat an eye when i finally got on. It's about the preparation, this horse wasn't ready for the saddle, or the rider. And riding a green horse with those size spurs? Wow.
Dogs that chase horses? And you think he shouldn't reprimand the dog? Grow up. This dudes a horseman... Sat straight up and spurred him through it.. now its over...
I don't believe that this is abuse at all. He is not forcing the horse into anything, but rather just giving the horse the idea that he/she is not in control. Many older riding styles did this, and it worked. While I personally don't, it's not something I'm against. Also - some horses don't accept the ground training. I have a filly that is against any kind of ground work, and unfortunately we're having to break her will to work with her. Some horses need this kind of work.
I thought it was from a "bucking string" the way he bucked with only the saddle, but I'm guessing from the other comments he's not. If the horse is prepared for the saddle, and time is taken, this does not happen. Not exactly bonding. I don't think I'd want to do it that way!
One of the worst I've ever seen. People that say that this is right. I believe that you should have absolutely nothing to do with horses. And neither should this stupid man. Couldn't watch the whole video, HORRIBLE horse abuse.
GOD THAT HORSE SOUND LIKE IT CANT BREATH. ITS BREATHING HARDER THAN A RACE HORSE. good riding and staying on. is that a mustang. mabe it was just getting nervous. thts why it was breathing really hard
I have one issue with your comment. The bit about if cowboys didn't break mustangs we'd have no horses. That's completely wrong because of the fact mustangs as they are now were a product of Spanish mustangs breeding with horses that settlers released. However horses like thoroughbreds and Arabians had been around and domesticated far before this so we would still have them. So in your theory we just wouldn't have wild horse to ride.
