I have a horse who does have some atrophe in the left shoulder area but she was kind of born this way. I am trying to work on her topline and see a difference in her performance; however, I want to be sure I can actually build these muscles up. As a result, she bares more weight on the right to accommodate. She is soft and subtle everywhere in her body it is just that shoulder. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Explain the prop please . What have you trained her to do- is the ball where you want her head? I was thinking of tapping the horse with a ball at the end of a whip but that’s not what you’re doing

Researching for my own horse one day. I adore your style of training, I really think I will be able to have a successful and beautiful bond with my horse thanks to your amazing content❤❤❤

With the hay or grass pellets, can you feed handfuls of them dry or do they need to be soaked first?

Hello! I just found your videos and I really like the way you do things. I'm definitely going to try this out on my very buddy sour horses. On a slightly different topic (I just came from the video where you worked on developing the topline over the course of a few months), I don't have a sand arena or anything like that. When I try to do liberty with my horses they almost always choose the grass. I know it's probably because our relationships aren't as developed yet, but are there any exercises you'd recommend to work on this? Thank you!

I love this video being available publicly to intro the postural feeding and actually added and clarified really helpful as I'm learning and enjoying this method!

Nice one❤

Do you ever find that horses start to become pushy for the treats?

How many times a week were you working her?

That is so clever! A very smart method of training. Thank you!

Love the idea of this. Please make a vid on how you did the mat training please.

Thank you so much! I've been really struggling with my guy with putting his head down to grass alongside the path when i'm leading him up, and I really didn't want to yank him around all the time. This will be really helpful to work on!

love your resources for free but also the CTclub😍👍 its where I started my R+journey and now I am a trainer myself😇💖

My Boy is called Freckles as well :)

Great video, thank you!

That smile at the end said it all, thank you posting this video.

Excellent examples

I really love your teaching style.

I just found your videos, I really love your approach

Thank you so much for posting this video! I am bringing my mare back into work and this was great to see the movements you did with your horse and the changes in her body through the process. I will be doing the wither and back impressions to track our progress. I really wish I had done this before when I first brought her home.

Well done. Very interesting

Amazing!

Hoe to feel it while on horse that hind is properly engaged

If possible turn away and act interested in something they can’t see. Curiosity is your best friend here. Even sitting not trying to engage them. Any pressure or even looking or reaching can trigger protective reflex

That the coolest thing I’ve seen, a horse going to the mounting block on their own. She wants to keep riding.

Thank you. Very informative.

Yes I have taught voice commands including backing up. And moving over. I have also taught my horse to do spiral circles off of voice commands “move out”, and “inside” as my cues.

This is so helpful!! Thanks for the video 😊

What a beautiful property.

This is a wonderfully helpful video! So much information in one place laid out in a way that's easy to emulate. I watched twice to write down all the exercises and will absolutely be starting a program with my lease mare (she's lost a ton of topline due to terrible hay quality over the winter and poor saddle fit).

Great video. I have two seniors and will start working them as soon as the rain stops. Can anyone tell me where to buy the templates please?

Why is he so scared? What have they done to him?

Coco Meat haha

Previous owners making an excuse for their lack of care more like it.

Can you please show us how you work with his hind feet?

Thank you for this video! My new horse had trouble picking up his hind legs, seemingly spooking out of nowhere, even though we‘ve been training picking up feet for a while now. I could‘t figure out why he kept spooking and I had to start from zero again. Your video made me realize that he only spooks when he isn‘t in a position where he can immediately pick up the foot I’m asking him to pick up. I can get him to pick up his hind legs consistently now and slowly train with him to shift his balance without hin panicking.

Oh thank goodness! I have a reliable grooming/saddling dropper, and it sounds like that's not a warning sign in this case.

Nice to see donks starring in training videos. Smart creatures; Even the shaggy ones!

This was so helpful. Thank you

Great information, thank you!

ok so although my horse will find me and come to me and even listen to the word come on occasion. When we are working, she will turn herself to face me at ALL times but, she does not follow me around like this regardless of how much we have worked at it. She will graze and if in the round pen, she will just stand there. I am using rewards so afraid she is just stubborn. Suggestions?

Thank you!

Where is this beautiful place? 🌲🌳

Excellent content!

How often Should i do Theese exercises ? Every day?

Wow, this video was like a light bulbs instantly going off. I love the way you explained the root core of this panic..i have a mare and a gelding. The gelding goes straight into panic mode. i thought over time he would get used to her leaving seeing that she comes back everytime. That is not the case, I'm just making his panic worse. When i seperate I'm going to start focusing on alleviating his stress by nuturing practices such as brushing, grooming, etc. this video really helped me understand how i can be a better horse owner. Thank you.

Просто потрясающе!!🎉❤

❤❤❤❤❤

How should I train a gelding who has had a saddle slip under him and scare him ? Any pressure in stirrup can set him off

Thank you so much for making this video! It was informative and lots of great ideas to help build posture and muscle with groundwork. I will definitely be using these exercises with my mare who will be 18 this year!
