Thank you for this. I just bought a 5 year old FT, and this explains a lot. Yours don’t have all that head activity and I like that. I come from quarter horse world. Had no idea how much harder these guys are to ride. Great new challenge.
I am going to buy your series. I am an English rider who started to ride somebody else’s gaited horse. Through your videos I already learned what to do to get a consistent gait with head down. ❤
I thought I was getting lot s of gait on the sand road bit when I wanted to check it on the hardend road I wasn’t getting it. Horse seemed also faster/ more willing on the sand road. Maybe hardens road hurt his hooves. Or I was wrong about gait. I could ask a friend to feel her haired horse but its a different breed.
shoot!! I really wish I would have gotten in on the $99 private training group. I just barely found you. do you plan on doing any holiday coupons or discounts?
i noticed for the pasofino you used a clicker and treat for a reward. Do you use positive reinforcement on all horses early in the training? Or is it purely based on the individual?
I have worked with a standardbred, but she was trotty and pacey. I would do the same thing as I do for any other pacey horse. Do you have a pacey standardbred?
@@IvyS He paces primarily, but does fall into trottiness pretty often. I’m hesitant to do much with him by way of gaiting because I’m unsure of myself in what to do with his inconsistency.
@@kailierayner5512 yes and no. I don't let horses pace unless I'm training softness and head down. When I do sit it, it depends on how hard the horse is pacing. Every horse is different.
