Rich probably sees 50+ horses a week, I doubt he cares what gender any of them are at that point 🤣People who are offended by 'it' are being sensitive, bring me a horse who feels upset after being called the wrong word and then we can start making a big deal about it haha
This makes me wonder if Simon has met Bear? and if he's not, maybe he should have a little sit on her and, maybe just maybe, pop a little fence!?🤣 absolutely love Rich and the 0 filter he has ahahah
I think Bear is going to be Rich's new favorite of yours 😉 And the disbelief at the beginning in his voice when you told she is the mother of Brego 🤣 This was gold tier content 🤭
Just love Rich, he is now officially a Bear fan, like the rest of us. All the belly, bum, weight, moon, extra baggage, wobbly etc, comments just make me love her more!
What a superstar Bear is and props to you for doing so well with her.. as an adult pony rider myself (14.3hh/5ft8) it’s so refreshing to see! And I certainly don’t think you are too big for her at all! I don’t think anyone appreciates just how hard it is to ride ponies, short backed, bouncy, nothing in front and a personality that never matches their size, they’re a real challenge but I wouldn’t change my girl for the world! ❤
Yes. There's a reason why other countries teach children to ride on horses lol. And given that most ponies take up leg really well, the height thing isn't quite so much of an issue as people think.
Having a Simon and Wilma, and then a Rich ( the brutal) and Bear video in the same week.. freaking gold... I love it 🤣 You all are comedic gold🤣😂🥰🤩 Everybody loves Teddy Bear 😌
You, Pete and Tash have ruined normal TV for me! The quality of the filming, editing and content is just 😲👌🏼😍 And then add on to all that, Rich who I just adore and Bear 🤩😂😍 one of my fave vlogs yet!! I really need a Rich 🥺 (come to Australia pleeeease 🙏🏼) 😂
Bear is SO talented, it's really special finding a pony so skilled in both dressage and jumping. It was lovely hearing what Rich thought of her as well
Rich is hysterical and he obviously cares about the horses if you ever really listen to him talk about them. Anyone seriously offended by “it” needs to chill.
I’m not really offended because he’s not calling me it is just find it very weird that he would call any horse an it when he knows the sex? It’s just respect equestrians complain when horses don’t give them respect yet ik so many call their horses it or horse it when they know the sex 💀 it’s a red flag
@katiek3507 When you teach as many horses as he does you understandably will mix up genders at somepoint and that tends to offend people more than calling horses "it". It's a common term in the industry when you see so many horses in a short period
@@katiek3507 I run an animal rescue and I say “it” sometimes because I deal with hundreds of animals. Doesn’t mean I don’t care, it’s just too hard to remember all the time.
@@Shade_Zer0 I’m sorry but id be more offended if he called my horse an it instead of misgendering by accident 🤣 I think thats ridiculous if people are gonna be offended by that but not calling the horse an it that shows me your character. He does remember he’s been calling Bear she and her near the end and then switches to it? Unless he’s got dementia or getting dementia then he shouldn’t be working? (Not saying that to be mean btw) because he changes to it quite quickly I don’t think you can forget that quickly unless you are dory or have an illness if so should he be working?
Oh I have missed Rich! He's such a card! I love his witty comments and his laugh is contagious. I laughed out loud all through, with his comments. 😂😂 Little Ted is a lovely pony and she worked really well. A great lesson. 👏👏👏
Classic savage Rich! Hysterically funny to listen to your banter together. But seriously Meg, this video truly showcases your stellar riding. Lovely draped arms to a soft and supportive contact, tall shoulders and deep seat, and Teddy’s lovely responsiveness to your aids. Just a pleasure to watch, made more so by knowing the rocky road Bear’s return to work has been! Yay you! Yay Bear!
She’s got a lovely active back end - powers that mega jump of hers and I think she’s got dressage potential too. Obviously she’s not going to be doing Grand Prix but she’s a nice little mover for a Welsh Cob!
Rich uses Ambivalence The attack missed Bear uses Fat Girl Wow! Its super effective! A critical hit! Loved this video and how Rich warmed to Bear. Bear is such a clever girl being so willing and remembering all these things after such an extended break. You could see she was happy in her work and was trying really hard to please. Bless her!
On Rich riding Bear: Meg: “Just chop your legs off at the knee and you’ll probably be the right height for her…” Rich (looking directly at Meg):“Well, if you think about it, I probably weigh…” Even though I saw that comment coming a mile off, I haven’t laughed so much in ages. Several rewinds later… 😂😂😂😂 Meg - you’re perfect exactly as you are. Thank you both for the banter. Rich - don’t stop being you. First class. Bear too of course 🙏🏻
Loved this!!! Hard to believe Rich hadn’t met Bear before this!! And Bear was being such a good girl & I could absolutely see the medium trot on her. Once she’s fitter you guys are going to have so much fun!❤❤❤❤
There's nothing wrong with a healthy dose of reality. Megs face when Rich asked, "How much do you weigh?" Classic. Don't worry, Meg. I saw a video of me on a beautiful arab 15.1, hh. I looked like a basketball. I immediately put myself on a diet and lost 14 kg. You look good on bear.
My goodness ted bear, you really were on your best behaviour for Rich! Who couldn't love this little pocket rocket??! Meg I would pay to watch you do a medium on Bear, I'd love to see you both strutting your stuff! It's not the size that counts 😉😂
Oh ive missed Bear and her dressage moves. When her mind is focused on the job at hand, shes always painted a lovely picture. I cant wait for Rich to see her when her fitness is back up because she is super talented🥰
I adore Rich. Truly. Thank you for sharing him with us he's such a treasure. I was snickering and grinning throughout. My students would love him because I lean into being a sarcastic and somewhat hard coach at times but always with humor, if you can't smile whole you're riding it's time to get off the horse is very much my belief. Humor with some tough love. Riders should be honest with themselves and their horses because a horse doesn't lie (Except at the feed bin then all bets are off). I'm sure you're working on Bears feed and all, she's just a pony and I swear ponies can get fat if they SEE food with their metabolisms. She'll get her figure back. You could see her getting tired here. I adore the dapples my goodness.
Rich is describing Bear as someone would describe me right now and I’m literally dying laughing. I had a baby 8 months ago and also have no core, bigger belly bones and short legs 😂😂😂😂
Look at her gorgeous buckskin dapples!! I just love little bear and this could be a legit Netflix comedy. The three of them have great natural chemistry.
I had to come back and watch this one again! Rich is so funny. I love the banter between you two! ❤And I love how his opinion change about her as the lesson progress. ❤
Love the videos with Rich & the banter between you. Bear was a super star today, but I have to be honest & love seeing her crazy jumps! Brilliant little pony. x
Wow, Meg, she really is a wonderful pony…she is lovely and Rich’s explanation of her body and capabilities in the extended trot…just amazing…she is very talented…love her!!!❤
Well, Rich's fat girl shaming aside, a very good lesson. And he likes her! Knew he would. She has the capacity for a nice lengthened trot! I'm thrilled that you're going to show her BD! Once she loses the weight and gains some fitness, she'll clean up in dressage! Time for some gallop sets, Bearsky!
We are all expecting Teddy to be going back inside the white boards, get her fit and supple for the winter dressage tests can’t wait she will always be our favourite little Teddy 💕
She always has been a great little dressage pony. No reason why, once fit she couldn’t do a little of that at all just for in. Lots of presence and lovely paces
Just brilliant! Rich is harsh, but hilarious, and Bear - wow, she's got moves! Definitely well brought up ;-) Now, next, Simon on Bear, and jumping......
I so much enjoyed watching this video. Very informative but yet comical 😂 We need more of that here in America ❤. Love both of your comments in the video 😂
Rich likes her! That is amazing! We all love Bear and although I love watching her jump because it is great fun to watch - truly, she is a dressage pony. Yes, she's carrying some momma weight but fit Bear? Look out dressage world!!
I laughed so hard! Ohhhh😂 I think this is one of my all-time favorites! Bear is absolutely the cutest pony. So excited to see her come back into work and can't wait to see where her dressage dreams take her. ❤
It was like the family had guests & after dinner they took them outside to see what 8yr old Meg was doing... and she was riding her little TeddyBear & She showed them what she had learned with Uncle Richard 😂 x
Love the idea of Dressage Queen Bear, having a horse who can do the higher levels of dressage will be fantastic for you and help with the overall eventing on your others
