One of my last ever rides on my horse! Having not ridden my pregnant horse for 2 months I needed to check her out for a demo I will be riding her at in a weeks time “14th October in Blackpool” . Hormonal changes can sometimes make for a surprisingly different ride prior to being in Foal 😆. I’ve no idea what to expect so here goes . ( note we had the all clear to ride Nita after a vet check ) steve-young-ho...

What a wonderful testament to your horsemanship skills Anita is. How excited must you be to see how the foal turns out and what a birthday present. Mum and Dad are both glorious. Never knew that about pregnant mares - I’ve learnt something. I was never livelier when pregnant, just moody!

@glitterprincess5672 Год назад

Wow I have to admit I cried!! What a lovely horse 🐎 Nita is!! Congratulations Nita ❤️🐎

@everlastingscribe Год назад

What I saw here was two dear partners working together, each enjoying time with the other. Each knowing their place, communicating well, and just having fun. Utterly lovely.

Well said. You summed them up exactly 🤗

@jviglicky Год назад

"Life goals"! Even at 65(me)! Lol! Nita is the perfect reflection of your lifelong study, and understanding, of equine behavior, and the perfection of your techniques, in training horses. I'm awestruck every time I watch you work with a horse. ❤

my Arabian mare was amazing when bought and only green broke..she was 3 yrs old...I was 8 yrs old...next year she was at a school festival giving rides....in time a top speed horse(I trained her) as well as trail horse.....went any where all day on long days... she was worked with EVERY day .,,some type of hands on or training for riding..she was borrowed by a sheriff deputy to work crowds and search...plus he hunted from her too..,,my mare I said good bye when she was 29 yrs old ...injury ..got out of pasture...kids pushed fence down....that injury made me have to say goodbye...til I am with her again

@muffindog3113 Год назад

We are in Cordoba Spain and watched the Royal Andalusian Equestrian Show last night, a rider and Andalusian team demonstrating the pole riding techniques really demonstrated how riding from the seat for tempo, direction, flexion is accomplished with minimum effort. And your demostration really dovetails and matches these riding techniques. Bravo. 😊

@bjykl Год назад

I've never heard Steve talk about why he is banging on her sides while she walks. I know he's gentle, but why constantly and why spurs? Seems needless.

@clarekelso7841 Год назад

Nita is a Testament to your horsemanship. She looked really happy. Sometimes at demos she has that look in her eye that says, I’ll do it but I’m putting up with it a bit. But, in this, her eyes were saying I’m loving this. She’s missed you, Steve. My fingers are crossed (along with my eyes - too many cocktails) that all goes well for her pregnancy. The stallion daddy is beautiful. Give Nita a cuddle from all your supporters. She really deserves it. And so do you.

@chrism1164 Год назад

Wonderful to watch! Love the no bridle demonstration. She is poetry in motion. The result of your years and years of training. ❤

Everything you need to know about horsemanship is on a NITA know basis!!! What a complete and utter joy to watch her move, whilst at the same time, making a new baby foal…. Bless her and keep mother and baby safe. God Bless and you Steve. Thank goodness you found each other.

She's a perfect horse ! Can't wait to see that baby !! Please keep us informed thru her pregnancy . I❤

@annamcknight2573 Год назад

She is a great mare and you are a great rider. But I am concerned about riding her when she is pregnant, considering her age. And transporting her. I bred horses for many years and I think you are pushing your luck. She raised her tail and contracted her flanks at one point as if she had received a twinge. I am probably over anxious because she is an old lady.

@wendypeckinpaugh1078 Год назад

Nita is a queen. I sure hope you keep anything that comes out of her! Hoping this one is a filly. ❤

@francineherron1940 11 месяцев назад

Steve is it really necessary to use Spurs? I am not a fan of spurs, if you're a good Equestrian then spurs are not necessary.

@hazeltyler89 Год назад

Nita is such a beautiful representation of what we can all accomplish if we learn how to do better by horses. I have been around horses all my life and I truly WANT to do better. Thank you Steve for all you have taught us and continue to teach us.

I just love watching you and Nita. It looks like you read each other's minds. She is such a beautiful horse and so smart. I know that you can probably train another horse to be just as impressive, but there will only ever be one Nita. I'm looking forward to seeing the little one when it's time.

Lovely to think of Nita being a Mum! I am sure she will be just as great a Mum as she is in the demos. I hope her injury continues to improve. It will be interesting to see the foal she produces! looking forward to it.😜

@dd3wc Год назад

She’s a lovely mare and has served you well … and in turn you’ve taken good care of her too. She might even give you a couple of foals … and she’s not too old for that … he’s a good looking stud! I can see you planned well ahead to get a replacement (or two) before she retired … and they’ll both do fine as well. Hope you both enjoy your vacation next week (or this week 😊)! Happy Trails! 🙏🙌❤️🐎🐴

@mdee860 Год назад

Great video! Thanks Steve, Tanya & Nita. She's such a good girl. Do you give her 'Cosquin' supplement in her feed? Everyone knows how much you ♥️ Nita - but aren't you worried about her being pregnant at age 20?

@naomib8282 11 месяцев назад

Brought a tear to my eye, memories of my first horse when I was a kid. She was the best-ever, fearless in traffic, unbothered by noise, and I could ride her with no tack at all (not something I'd ever recommend, and did only in her pasture). I had no training but she was patient and smarter about it all than I was.

@karenatha7890 11 месяцев назад

What a lovely responsive horse she is! I have a question about your feet in the stirrups. I trust you have a reason...why have feet all the way in up to your heels? I think a lot of us are taught that heels down and stirrups under ball of foot for safety reasons. I'd like to understand your riding better.

just asking why do I never see these horses turned out. do they not spend 70% out in the pasture. I am very big on not stalling horses unless you need to for some reason. just an honest question and observation.

Nita will be a great mum, and I’m sure she will throw a beautiful foal. Continue her bloodline. I’m sure you will miss the very special relationship you have with her. Better to keep her more or less sound.

@payntpot7623 Год назад

When I was a kid, our mare foaled on my birthday. It was during the day and we had a bbq with some friends that day, so we were able to watch her give birth in the paddock in front of the house. Of course, the foal became mine!!! If you want to get her in foal again, what is it....8 days after birth for the foaling heat....? I can't quite remember. That being the case, will you foal her at home, then transport them to the stallion, use AI, or foal her where the stallion resides? Such decisions.

@cynthiamcgee4829 11 месяцев назад

Nita is a beautiful mare, good luck with the new foal. And by the way I know about Billy cook saddles they're pretty good saddles. I on the other hand have a corriente barrel saddle which I love.

@toscadonna 11 месяцев назад

Daniella at Painted Desert Ranch didn’t know her barrel horse Dibs was pregnant, and she kept winning the barrel races, but they were wondering why she wasn’t in good shape and appeared to be fat.😂 Well, she’d been exposed to a stallion of theirs that had a bad leg injury, and voila. She just had the foal last week.

I’m still absolutely mind blown after seeing this IRL yesterday. Made me super emotional actually. Just beautiful to see, in a horsey world that seems to be full of gadgets these days.

@denisemiller4083 Месяц назад

She isn’t very affectionate with you, eh? It seems to me she’s got a bit of learned helplessness going, just doesn’t whatever you want her to in a very impersonal way. In the videos I’ve seen you with her she obeys you but shows no interest in you otherwise.

@denisemiller4083 Месяц назад

I’m not surprised horses run faster when pregnant. The research shows the fetus can sense any weakness in the mother and somehow send stem cells out to repair any damage in the body so the mother can incubate better. Our hair, skin and nails begin to look incredible and we glow with good health. Babies tend to heal the mother, make them stronger in order to best care for them. I’m sure there is much science has yet to discover about the intimate chemical communication, interchange between babies and their mothers.
