Your apologies for not filming everything are a form of politeness toward your audience. But I hope you understand you don't need to apologize. Your life is busy. We're just delighted to be able to share it as much as we do.
I was going to say the same thing. Sometimes you don'e even need to apologize, but instead say "Thank you for being so understanding" This makes the people in your audience feel more special and gets them more invested in the process. Just a little Psychology for you.
The girl who put 30 days on our little Mustang years ago did the same thing, having every neighbor and person come around to get her used to all kinds of people, not just her. Made perfect sense. I love how you are never too proud to get others to help, as you did with the ponying. The mark of a good horsewoman who is always learning. That's doing what is right for your horse and the one you are training. Thank you so much for giving us a peek into your world training another awesome Mustang.🤗
It is good to see that horse training is ups and downs. I am training a foal now and sometimes she struggles with stuff and this video feels like support. Thank you for doing these series.
Her reaction to being tied was pretty good for the fact that she found difficulty with it but didn't totally lose her cool. She has such a good brain (and a great trainer 🥰)
These videos rock Sam! It’s super helpful to watch you train I’m a big visual learner and I hope to train horses/Mustangs. Your videos help me learn and inspire me to train! Thank you!
I agree with your position on showing her multiple options, as you know they are herd animals and feel more at ease with like kind. She’s coming along well, but you already know the DG’s do well. Keep exposing her to multiple people-you’re doing the right thing. Keep it up Sam!
thank you so much for another awesome video! i love watching the process of a horse going from crazy to being able to be rode. i am trying to break one so watching you do all of this stuff is helping me get an idea of what to do.
I like how you like to get on bare back for the first time. I totally agree. I have done that with 5 of the 6 horses that I have put first sits and rides on. I love watching your videos
Always nice watching you work and the things you do you have a gentle hand and a wise mind the best horse that I ever drained was my mustang and he was an amazing you know worked out real well in the end keep doing what you're doing and it's always a pleasure watching your videos you're doing what you were made to do I believe 🙂
Just in reference to you letting other people help with the horse, I think that is a really great thing! If you have people around you who you trust and are capable and willing then for sure! It’ll only do good for your horse and giving you the chance to learn other techniques and such too! I know you don’t need my or anyone’s permission but just wanted to help you know we support you :) no judgment!
The braids in her mane looked like a greyscale rainbow! Maybe Rainbow is a nice name for her? Rainbow for a grey horse, cause there's lots of color within
"Oklahoma bootcamp":-) love from Germany. Your videos are helping me a lot in starting my 4 year old mare. Her charakter is just like your mare. She is tense while freezing, She can explode suddenly. Then she cryes out (flute tone) jumpes in the air and shakes her head. The last days she is getting really soft and motivated thanks to your incedible input!!!!!! I have her sinds she is 2 and you could say he charakter was like a donkey. She was pampered with her previous owner. I bought her anyway because I could see that she had "a good charakter in her genes". Her bad behaviour was just learned by humans. It was a really hard job to get her out of her old behaviour patterns and give her new ones. I had to be absolutely strict in my feeding rules. To got her move away from me and be allert I had to scare her using an electric flex which I held between my hands shaking as if I where getting electric shockes. There was no elecricity on it. I was just miming. You have to be very creativ, there was no other way getting her feet moved.:-) I am following your horse startings carefully. Is helps me enormously!! Thank you so much for sharing your scills and your explenations!! Much luck in finding a good home for your horses. You are making a lot of horses and people happy!
Awesome footage of your beautiful mustang 💕Here in Australia we have wild horses they are called Brumbies, they have been around for a couple of hundred years.
I use to pony colts and liked to snub them up to my right knee less chance of getting the lead rope under the tail of the pony horse when the colt spooks or gets goofy anyway your doing a great job of training and her halter pulling will go away as you continue to gentle her you had to use that halter because if she broke free it learns a bad habit as you well know sincerly Tim .
I wonder if its possible to import Mustangs over to Europe, they look like such lovely versatile little horses and ponies, and seeing you bring them up from feral is amazing! Fabulous work with her, really educational video
any advice my horse is fine being trimmed but wont let my farrier shoe him so he has to get sedation to be shod and it will be his first time getting sedation other than being gelded and first time getting shoes also we are worried once it wears off he will be terrified and hurt him self he is very head strong he was in cross ties and pulled back so hard he was sitting down so my farrier recommended sedation.
@@TightwadTodd thanks for the comment. The only time I've seen them break is when the lead rope had a knot on the end and the horse pulled all the way back. What do you think about how they teach the horse to stand tied?
@@tinoyb9294 I have seen them break at different times and for different reasons mainly the center piece.I think they are fine for that,if you are there to render the rope as needed.If you left them unattended,it would allow them to pull the rope completely through and develop a more severe pullback as they find no pressure to yield to,but find the pullback,releases any and all pressure ..There should never be a knot at the end of a lead..
Sorry she rubbed her skin off, but as cruel as it sounds, It's a good thing. She will (hopefully) remember the sensation and the pain thereafter and for a horse that needs more time to process and put it into performance this will stay with her more. You have done everything you could to show her that you don't hurt her, She has to learn that it was her ownself that her her. If you get my meaning.
tyint them up when "BREAKING them is a real asshole move. they can break their necks like that. next time, don't be so violent. better yet, find another hobby.
