Although I have been training a number of years I continue to look at all aspect of training, I really enjoyed and learned something from this video, owning the space was great in fact I was recently working with a young paint colt that was in my face and I used this on him and it worked great.
you all prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account?? I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Ephraim Zachariah HOLY **** IT REALLY WORKED :O I literally got access to my instagram password after roughly 30 minutes by using the site. I had to pay 15$ but definitely worth the price =) Thanks so much, you really help me out!
this is a great video for those of us that are just trying to learn about horsemanship prior to getting a horse or pony. Thanks for the great and easy to understand video!
I enjoy watching your videos. I'm helping one of my boarders with her sweet little mare who was used for roping in her previous situation..... as in she was THE COW! She was not just roped, but thrown down and had 3 legs tied. We hope to one day not have to sedate her to get her feet trimmed. Using a lariat on her might never happen. : ( We used a plastic grocery bag on the end of our stick today and she did very well. : )
It's amazing to me how fast someone can ruin a good horse, and how many years it can take to fix it. She'll probably come around to the rope over time if it's something you're committed to working with her on.
@@connorjohnson9230 her owner is so amazing and patient with her! She can fly spray her, wash her and clean feet without a halter! None of these could she do when she got her. Slow and steady wins the race!
That is so horrible. That poor horse. So my gelding I have now would not even stand for one good being trimmed when I first got him. How I built his confidence was do it every day. Since she can already clean her feet without a halter, there is hope for no sedation during trims. Just keep messing with her feet and making each encounter longer. I am so glad this horse has your boarder. It sounds like she is going to heal this baby's heart.
The Mustang training course sounds outstanding! Very interested and excited about that!. Also I love "Johnny Cash".. He's quite beautiful, and a very good boy! Tho I was wondering, is it not a good thing to give him alittle pet/rub when he does a good job? I know he's not a dog, but it seemed like it would be a good thing to do. Then again, there may have been a certain reason why. Like, his reward would be stopping the bag noise instlead. Or maybe too much "petting him" everytime he does good, makes him too dependent on it so if he doesnt get one, it feels like not communicating? I can understand if the whole idea is to make him think, and discover when he doesnt react, the threat or "pressure" subsides. Very interesting. Being able to watch what your teaching him and seeing how well it works, its such a useful thing and It has helped fill in the gaps for me and shows me alittle extra of what I already know works, and makes it that much better and the learning happens faster. I really appreciate your videos. This was excellent, as always! Thank you!🐴🏞🌲🏇🐎🐎
If I had to pick one doodad that gets more dudes hurt than any other it is them sitting in the saddle and whipping out a crinkly plastic water bottle. we tell them not to bring them but the sneak one into a pocket any way. The second is a white straw hat flying thru the air
I understand the release part, but what happend on trail if the horse act like a partner and try to relax, but the scary thing keeps following, anyway - like fx an angry dog?
YOu gotta be really careful with horse tools. A buddy of mine is a Ford mechanic. Last week his boss tol him to go out to the back lot and tight the nuts on a mustang. He got kicked in the head 3 times
You are confusing the horse. I watched up to 3:40. You are not giving the horse release of pressure when he does the correct thing. He moves out in response to the pressure. But the pressure remains. So that must not be the right answer. He moves in circles. The pressure remains. So that must not be the right answer. He begins to turn in asking 'can I stop now?'. You ignore him and still apply the same level of pressure. The horse does not know what is the right answer. Confusion. Confusion will lead to frustration, which will lead to 'I don't have to listen to you. You are not a good leader.'
Gerry Coleman: A little further in the video, Ryan explained that most people think that a horse will automatically be calm if the handler is calm, but he said this is not completely true. He said you have to teach a horse to be calm and read the handler's body language, regardless of the outside pressures. Ryan was trying to get the horse to walk slowly while flagging him, but the horse over-reacted and kept trotting. So, as long as the horse was trotting, the pressure did not diminish because trotting was the wrong answer. But as soon as the horse slowed down, the pressure subsided, teaching the horse to be in tune with the handler/rider and not to over-react to outside pressures. I've been studying these methods since 2005 and It's been an awesome journey. All the best to you on your journey.
@@hoofhearted3035 That is where the fine points come in. You do not maintain the pressure level when the horse is not giving the desired response. You keep applying pressure but at a lower level that he has accepted before. Get the desired response. Give release. Allow the horse to process it. Then back at it working up to the original higher level. Get the right response. Then release.
