Teach your horse to stop quickly and smoothly
zhlédnutí 219Před měsícem
Many horses don't stop as crisply as we'ed like. They end up bouncing forward, turning to the side, running into branches, even into other horses. Teaching them to stop quickly and smoothly is all about teaching them to shift the weight correctly. These three steps will teach them so it becomes second nature to stop much better and with perfect balance. #horse #horselover #horsemanship #horsetr...

My session with a wild and aggressive animal
zhlédnutí 14Před měsícem
She is large and truly dangerous. The techniques I use here can be applied to any difficult and aggressive animal. But, I must always keep my guard up because she is 100% wild and can be very dangerous. This animal was captured in the wild by the Bureau of Land Management as part of their round-up program. She (along with many others) was auctioned off and went straight to a kill pen. Now at a ...

Hook-on tips for a worried rescue horse

I can tell you he went to a very loving and caring forever home with lots of p...

This works every time. Learn how to take a worried, inexperienced horse into the round pen and get a foundation you can build on. In this video I show a green rider how to work with a green horse in the round pen. When Im working with a worried horse, I always keep in mind.... less is more.

How to catch rebellious horses
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed měsícem
This group of rescue horses are rebellious and very difficult to catch. I need to teach them to be "caught" and I have to do it by myself in a pasture.. This is how I get that done. #horse #horselover #horsemanship #horsetraining #animalrescue #donkey #thoroughbred #wildhorses #cowboys
Trailer loading a troubled Rescue Donkey
zhlédnutí 122Před měsícem
This little Donkey had a traumatic experience while loading on a trailer. In this video you will see how I get him over his fear and load freely on the trailer. Note: Donkey's respond very differently than horses and as such need to be handled quite differently. Techniques that work on horses don't necessarily translate well to Donkey's.... And vice-versa. #animalrescue #horse #donkey #horselov...
What you do, helping rescue. Operations, iss a great thing. Hopefully more horse will get adopted by competent, educated owners.👍
@@thomaslogsdon5165 Thanks for your comment … My specialty is helping rescues with animals they have difficulty handling or can’t catch. Some Animals won’t let rescue staff trim feet, take medicine, won’t trailer, are difficult or sometimes dangerous. I specialize in helping these kinds of animals for rescues.
Super good Cowboy Bob
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing. We just recently got 4 icelandic mares, and we're all learning for the first time. Luckily they are sweet as can be, but I can tell your video just upgraded my ability to remain calm and welcome challenges rather than shy away from them.
Love the new point of view… the soft touch- learning something new … can you please keep this going … how to training of a softer finesse riding skill…
Im glad your video popped up here in East Germany! You are talented, calm and i love your respect for the horses. Im working with my 4 year old right now and enjoying the adventure with him so far. But i noticed that the bit is taking his focus away from me. I wanna try it bitless, but defentily have the voices in my head "he is to green for that". What do you think?
@carolin6744 I use only side pull bitless bridles on all horses now, green or not. That said, any setup can work, and any can fail. It’s more about how you use your hands. Watch my video on stopping and you'll see how I use bitless. Best of luck!
@@cowboybobtexas Great, thank you for your response. I'd love to visit your ranch one day.. much love from oversea
You're building a good thing here.
Thank you so much Bob! This is great and I can’t wait to try on our pony.
amazing work!
Fantastic thanks!
I used to use a squirt bottle full of water just for practice.
That is an excellent idea! 👍🏻
The sprayer with water is what I always start with. It's cheaper. I like to just spray around them to begin, then gradually work it toward them, watching for relaxation. When they are good there, then begin spraying them, again watching for the relaxation before going further.
My friends mother used to make these oat and molasses cookies and I had apple trees at home. I never showed up at the barn without treats. My horse got used to that and I also used to cup my hands together and whistle through my thumbs to let her know I was coming. After a couple months of this she would meet me halfway and I'd get on bareback no halter and off we went. RIP Cleo ❤️
Great job people 💪💪💪
Wow only 29 subscribers? You need WAY more than that!!! You have a wonderful energy about you. That is definitely one of the most important things to perfect when working with horses. Kudos to you! I'm subscriber 30.
Thank you so much!!
@@cowboybobtexas You know that mare looks like she's in foal, right?
@@Growmap Ha No, she’s just an easy keeper.
Thanks! Great idea. I had that difficulty....it sure got ME exercised....while the horse laughed.
Good progress. Thank you for sharing. 🐴
It’s so nice that you can help these horses and people, tell me what is the ball there for?
Ha! There are 1800 lb Percherons at this rescue. They play with that ball in this pen. It’s a heavy circus elephant ball because they crush the regular ones in one minute 😂 It’s also great for sitting on 🤠
How is that tarp so quiet? Is it cotton?thank you for your work!!👍🏽
Great question! The reason you can’t hear the tarp or wind is because my mic was not working.. I had to do a voiceover at my house 🐴
