@@pariahmouse7794 your claim is very valid And SAD. My remark comes from early 70s.yup 1972.All planned fresh (scary) driving liscense and then Addional training *nto,learning how to perfect a 2 stall horse van.the corners turns and WIRING for brakes lights signals.Backing up.No More-You Wanted to HEAR this.it was a bit shorter than 1/4 mi to be at bar. 4 box stalls.top was hay loft.tack room.after my Heidi passed,my little welsh 1st pony.fromher 6 months of Life,SHE WAS FULL OF IT.EVER DAY WAS DIFFERENT.SO MUCH FUN.I had to put her down.i find no joy in keeping to last dying Breathe when yos see the AGONY.TO SAY-OH SHE LOOK A LITTLE BETTER TODAY
You have such gentle, caring hands, every movement is efficient and non fussy, Emporio has calmed because you are a true horseman. Wonderful to see you treating this stunning horse with respect and love, he will give you 110% every time I'm sure! Well done and keep doing what you love! Love your videos!Xx
Just a little hack and I’m not trying to correct you, but it’s much easier and nicer if you brush a mane from bottom to top (still in downwards strokes) it helps so much when your horse has a knotty mane!
He’s honestly just breathtaking..such a beautiful and powerful animal, such a credit to you Matt! Also congratulations on the collection, it’s gorgeous.
I wish that your saddle pad had different sizes. I’d really love one, but since I ride Icelandic horses Full is usually a bit too big, (it almost looks like a blanket on them) maybe at least Cob could be a size option for the next stock maybe? Or even both Cob and Pony since I bet there are a lot of young riders with ponies that adore your RU-vid channel too and would love a saddle pad. Just a suggestion, if it had the right size I’d definitely buy.
@@libbydormouse318 was just about to say the same 😂 and not just riding! Taking care of the horses are also hard work. Mucking the stables, carry around shavings, hay and feed, going from one field to the other, keeping the stables and the fields clean, carry water buckets, stepping over cats.. 😂
@@TheDesiLiter I think you are forgetting who we a talking about. Matt got people for mucking out the stables. And yes, the whole riding contracts stomach and butter muscles.
Sadly there have been several cases in which spanish horses were jugded worse than they actually were because judges prefer the big steps of a warmblood and not the high knees of the spanish breeds
Emporio is such a beautiful horse! I'm always so impressed with you Matt on how attentive you are with your horses. Loved this video, thank you so much for sharing.
Emporeo is a Knight so gallant, confident , charismatic and carries himself beautifully ! You've done a marvelous job with his training Matt. He has matured ....and grown physically !!! Thank you for posting this. Bravo ❤👏 Hugs to Chase and your mini.
Omg I love your content matte you take so much care of your horses and that's what I love about you you take your horses first keep up the good work matte
I have to keep my Lusitano boy's naturally wavy mane in long braids all the time or it'll get knotted. It helps minimize hair loss, too. Next time I re-do his braids, I'll do the Emporio hair style. :)
OMG Matt how beautiful is Emporio, ( hope ive spelt his name correctly lol. ) He's such a super calm sweet natured stallion, amazing for his age 💕💕 You must put a lot into ground work as well as ridden as his manners look impeccable. He looks so smart in your own brand too, i love your products. Thanks for a great video, hope you & the rest of your horses are all keeping well. Love & best wishes from the UK, Lizzie x
Linda Nowak : naaah he looks even better than When he first got him . Emporio is so well cared For . Really glad to see how affectionate he is With Matt . I actually think he’s gained weight And mussel . Best wishes..
One of the things I like be about your videos is that they demonstrate how much time, care and dare I say it money it takes to truly care for a horse. You have such a caring connection with all your horses, they are not just an animal you ride, they are so much more than that.
Emporio is an ANGEL with his feet... I wish all horses were so considerate, haha! I have to amend that, he is an angel all the way around! So chill and sweet, considering he is such a young stallion especially! You have done a superb job with him, and your commitment to aesthetics makes my soul happy, too, haha! Your gear is always spot on! Beautiful as always! 💞🐎💞 *Note to self: helmet on BEFORE bridle... I am always scrambling to get to my helmet, and then struggle to put it on and fasten it while holding my horse...😳 (Emporio is SO GOOD! I can't even lead my lesson mare down an aisle with other horses, she doesn't tolerate other horses AT ALL, I forget he is a stallion, he is SO CHILL. Great job with him!)
He is so calm for being as young as he is. You can see all the power he has just when he is standing,,,he is one of A kind,,just like Chase and Bear. You have A unique connection with horses that you are drawn to the one for you, and them to you. Love all you share with us,I agree with other subscribers about A house tour and your new horse truck. 🐴🐴🤙🏻☮️❤️🐴🐴👋🏻
Unsnap rug at back first. More important to mention this than which way you remove rug after all of them are unsnapped. Unsnapping the rug at the back first is for safety. If you do front first and the horse moves making the back part slide down, with snaps not unsnapped, is dangerous. It could wrap around the hindlegs. If something spooks the horse, someone could get hurt. Rubber bands break down the hair especially if used often which leads to untidy split ends. Are there any barns over that way that have wide aisles in the stable. This aisle is quite narrow. More chance to a horse to reach out and bit you or your horse.
Emporio is so beautiful and I love his hair being braided do you keep all your horses together so you can see them all and I'm so glad you blanket them during the winter time
‘ I work from front to back, I know a lot of your will have something to say about that but honestly it’s not that big of a deal’ - I CHOKED you shut them all down 😭🤣
I don’t even put my horses blanket on until it reaches 30°F 😂 this guys over here putting a blanket on while he’s getting ready! Sorry that just makes me chuckle.
Emporio is as fashionable as you in one of your walks down the runway. I raised and rode quarter horses as a young girl so only knew western tack. I enjoy seeing what you use.
I have hair down to my waist. In order to keep from pulling on the hair, breakage, etc. ALWAYS START Combing or brushing the hair FROM the BOTTOM!!! Very carefully work your way up. You will be amazed at how much better this works.
Thanks for sharing another incredible video of your “Loves” Beautiful, breathtaking Horse 🥰. Oh! Can not forget your genuinely big compassionate heart ❤️. Take Care Matt Harnacke.
oh my god Emporio is so adorable. His temperament and gorgeous eyes remind me of a sweet old lesson horse I learned to ride on. His name was George, he had actually competed very highly in dressage and was awesome to ride because he had so many different buttons (although this also made it a bit difficult to communicate with him while I was still learning, I'd put my leg in the wrong place and he'd do a beautiful flying change haha) Emporio is so relaxed for a young stallion, and he moves so beautifully too. Literally a fairytale horse, I'd love to meet him one day.
i was actually thinking about disliking it because i don't like that it's all about fashion which i didn't subscribe for. i subscribed when he did interesting videos about his horses and not these kind of 'how i dress my barbie' videos. like the horse even has to wear a blanket, nose band, bonnet and stuff just because it looks good and bandages are also nonsense but it's the 'matt harnacke collection' so well i guess that makes it important to wear it all. also he has kind of his own stable with jesse (and every horseman knows how dirty stable work is) but with emporio he acts like every bit of dust is a problem. don't get my wrong. i wrote this because you couldn't think of a reason to dislike this so here you are
Maybe because it was a straight up ad for his products? I love these videos too but he even said he had been waiting to do this video for awhile and then proceeded to skip by most of the grooming because he’d already washed his horse but made sure to name drop his new product line at every single possibility. This was an ad, not a grooming video.
@@fiminio9316 well I mean he likes "fashion" and everything has to go together, so I already knew that he would tack Emporio that everything matches. And if I had my own collection I would probably be the same because I would be proud of myself. But this is just my opinion, and I kinda get your point of view.
honestly my favourite horsey RU-vidr and emporia is literally the most beautiful horse I have ever seen I do dressage too with my horses and u inspire me everyday
I'm normally not not into white-ish/gey-ish fur coats but Emporio is such a beatiful horse. PRE are my favorite horses so the way his body itself looks is great. I would give anything to own a horse like that some day
Be the bandage get to know the bandage. Love that matt. U have really been blessed with such a sweet soul in emporio. He is so relaxed and kind. I’d need a step ladder if u need a stool lol 😂 as I’m 5ft 5 to ur 6ft plus frame lol 😂
I ordered a piece from your collection yesterday and it just got shipped, i can‘t wait putting it on my horse 🤩🤩🤩 btw he is an icelandic - i am so curious how gorgeous he will look ☺️
This was very interesting and watching how you work with Emporio is fantastic and he just stands there so patiently just looking around to see what's next. He has come so far and looking great. Hope to see more videos of you riding him. Your new merchandise looks great hope it continues to grow and do great for you. Take care and best always Rusty
When I tack and groom my horse; gets a unicorn blanket and 1 brush. Brush with brush. Put on unicorn blanket. Put on saddle. Put on rest of tack. Puts on 15 years old hat that still does the job. And goes of for a ride. 🤣🤣
So different with the mane and the tail on these horses vs your warmblood. Having Friesians we have the same LOTS of hair! He is a lovely boy Matt. How is Chase doing?
Emporio gets more handsome every time I see him Matt, and his neck is getting huge too, loving the MH attire on him too, like you said black is timeless, when it gets colder do you sometimes wish you were back in Australia, enjoy your ride, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
