I honestly couldn’t agree more. My horse is pretty young and inexperienced and I get frustrated more often than I’d like to admit. But her videos especially this one help me persevere, have patience and remember these things take time. Thank you Esme 💗✨
@@ThisEsMe I wanted to thank you ☺️💗✨ I have a young horse who often misbehaves. She’s very inexperienced and I get frustrated quite a bit with her. This video really helped me persevere and realize these things take time and patience. We all love ya 🥰
I appreciate how transparent you are. Social media has given younger audiences the impression that things come easy, especially when people can retake footage until they get their perfect shots. When creators (like you!) show that results take time, you leave such a positive message for the younger audiences. Keep it up! I know I might not be your intended audience, but it is nice to see creators of who show the good and bad, but are still positive!
i love that you do 20 & 10 meter circles, i feel they are so over looked in jumpers, but they are so useful in balancing and slowing down the horse, calling them down and making them think and exercise their brains and their necks and bending. also, as my trainer would be yelling during long & low: outside half halts, inside leg to outside rein! and when he’s drifting: block with the outside! block with the outside and leg yield over! you are such a good rider, and i strive to be as good as you one day! 💗
The thing I feel makes me emotionaly connected to your channel is that you never gave up on Mickey even tho you can't use him for riding anymore because of his age! You have so good relationship with him and it looks like he would never exchange you for anything in his life :)
Haha Mickey and Joey are just like “No she’s my mummy not yours! I’m not your friend anymore!” 😂😂 Can’t wait time watch it Esme! 🥺💕 Me and my friends have a groupchat all about you on snapchat and right now we are making a collab edit of you! Really hope you could see it! 🥺 ly
I gotta say, your journey through all this, with both Casper, mickey and now joey amazes me on so many levels. you really show in your videos, not just the glory of riding, but also fails and everyday things, like cleaning, and redecorating your tack room, it's really amazing to watch, I'm really excited to see what the future holds for you two. also, let's talk about that improvement in this video o.o
I have a shetland she is 13 my Welsh pony is 9 and my shetland is the boss when I give them meal my shetland eats hers she goes over to my Welsh ponys lol
I agree with you about young horses. My horse just turned 6 and a year ago he would just run through the jumps and knock everything down including the standards. It is fun to learn with them and I do better with Wesley than some other people when they ride him because he doesn’t always listen and they don’t know when he is gonna act up. But young horses are a challenge, but it is a fun challenge. You and Joey are coming along and look really good.
I love your channel! You helped me improve my riding so much!! Thank you!💛 P.s Joey is so so so so cute!!💚 Thank you so much to whoever liked! Esme thank you for the ❤ I'm so happy!!!!
OMG EARLY , esme u always put a smile on my face and i started riding mostly because of you, your my idol ilysm ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️also plz tell all the horses donkeys and chickens hiiii ❤️❤️xx edit : tysm for liking my comment! xxxxx
I just saw Esme's video post and quickly clicked. I haven't started watching it yet but I know it's going to be amazing like always. Love you Esme. You are incredible. 😊😄
i just got a horse and your videos have been really helpful for me and they really helped my parents get persuaded 💕💕 you are really improving on joey(you go so well with him🥰) love your videos ❤️
Hey Esme a great excercise for young horses if you do pops have them at about 20 cm and do about 4-5 of them it is really good excercise for young horses
i would really enjoy some tutorials on how to take care of a horse. what they need, eat, whats wrong, whats right, around how much taking care of a horse costs a month/ a year, and stuff like that. I think this would really help people who want to get a horse and they will be ineresting to watch and the tips would pe helpful for the ones who already have a horse. 💞🐴
HI IM A NEW HUGE FAN!! Since I can’t have my own horse I play star stable and sometimes wonder why I can’t and I cry about it sometimes because my parents think I’m not that responsible for one 😢
I didn't have my own horse at one stage. But don't worry this is what I did: I went to a local stable hired a horse and after a few months I bought the horse 😁
it takes a while to be able to own a horse! taking riding lessons if you don't already do is a great place to start :)) if you're able to earn money, as long as your parents are willing to take you to a stable you should be able to cover one or two lessons a week yourself! i took lessons for 5 years before i started loaning a horse of my own, and didn't buy a horse until 2 years later - personally i would hold off on buying a horse until you're an adult and stick to loaning but if the right situation comes along once you're more experienced then you should go for it :))
You really have improved with him so much, you handle him so well and you're so kind with him! It's lovely to see someone ride a horse so nicely and not punish them for getting excited. he's doing so well even though he's really young
Ask if you can just go to a riding stable and have a few lessons on a stable pony and once you learn how to ride ,hire a horse and buy after you get used to it 😊 Really hope this helped❤🐎
Take lessons then look into a well broke horse. I got my first horse after 4 YEARS of taking lessons. Just do lessons and the time will come I promise you! And DO NOT push it.
I have had my 2 year old cob now for 2 months and he loves to rush things and he is also a little escape artist. You have come so far these last few months with joey and you are improving every day xx.
Hi Esme! Love you and your animal family! I have a question: how do you know so much about horses! I know having one would teach you a lot, but any tips? -From Ireland x
I love your instructors ménage. I love when they don’t have a fence as the horses don’t lean against them to become straight and learn to stand up properly x
omg 55 seconds ago!! I have never been this early before!!! who else liked the video before they watched it because they knew that it was going to be amazing!!!!!!!!! Meeeeeeeeee Joey is sooooo pretty, I really want to get a horse but they are really expensive so watching you is my horse medicine lol 💖
Most people don't know but dressage horses actually do well in western pleasure. As they're very similar with collection. The moment you loosen the reins on a dressage horse their head lowers as it finds relation much to a western pleasure horse who is taught to find proper relaxation in letting their head down. Warwickshiller has a video on getting a forward evernter to just slow off her seat and as the horse becomes more relaxed it's head follows. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w8a2Hbc5Aao.html
You are so talented and amazing😍😍😍 look at Joey now he is amazingly gorgeous!!😍🥺 you worked so hard and that payed off!!😍💓💓💓💓, I LOVE YOUR RU-vid VIDEOS!!💜💜
Is so amazing to see someone be so honest and so raw about there horse, I’ve got a 6 yo who’s very similar to joey and I’ve been feeling like a failure for not being perfect, but you’ve just shown me that horses a hard and no one is perfect. You and joey look awesome, thank you so much ❤️❤️
You're doing a fabulous job with Joey. young horses test all our courage and knowledge! My daughter is training her young pony too! Joey's very lucky to have landed with you 🥰
Hi, I have a 7yr old Connie mare who is EXTREMELY slow to mature. We have only recently got her going well as before she would be stroppy and reluctant to go forward. She would also not canter without semibucking. She loves jumping but on the flat she is sometimes not very accepting of an outline. Recently I have been doing an exercise that has helped us soooo much. She is now way more balanced and she cannot rush or get behind the bit and it sounds simple but it actually helps so much. You basically ride round the arena trot on the left rein and once you get to letter A turn across to B on a straight line. Once there, go normally into the corner and once you get to C go turn to E on a straight line and repeat. Also, you can incorporate transitions on the straight lines or change pace. This has helped my mare so much to loosen up, get balanced, get stronger and really improve her paces and her jump. I hope this is of help. Also I love your videos. X
