- Surviving my first ride on Charlie D đ
My Horses:
Mr Jones - 4yo Ex Racehorse (OTTB)
McAlester - 4yo Ex Racehorse (OTTB)
Charlie D - 6yo Ex Racehorse (OTTB)
Billy - 14yo Showjumper & Legend
My Dog:
Baby Dill/BBD/Baby Dill (if heâs in trouble) - 8yo Jackahuahua
Enjoy!
He is really handsome - look forward to seeing more of him as he progresses. He is a very kind horse affectionate - looks like you have a bond already. You should be very proud of him he did great on his first outing - good luck - really enjoy your "way" w/him
He is a Beautiful looking Horse
He's lovely and you are so natural and understanding with him. Best of luck, can't wait to follow his progress.
I absolutely love this .. I love how you are so natural with your horses and remind me of myself so much .. I canât wait to watch your progress â€ïžx
Thank you so much, thatâs reassuring to know that Iâm not the only âcrazy horse girlâ around here đ â€ïž
Great first ride. The spookiness at animals and hedges is one of the hardest things for OTTBâs ⊠their world at the track is so different. Iâve also said many times âI live to see another dayâ. I have an OTTB that ran for six years and Iâve slowly and steadily retrained her but weâve had some massive spooks along the way. Best of luck with him. It looks like youâre off to a great start.
I really like that you speak your mind & share you & your horses experience regarding going barefootđ
Iâm a huge advocate of barefoot horses, but I do realise not all horses can cope! Thanks for taking the time to comment đ
@@jenniferrebecca2813 Absolutely! I wish more people would speak out about subjects like this, regarding Horsemanship.
4 years old, 4 years old, 6 years old ... It always blows my mind that horses that I would still consider to be babies, can be called 'ex' anything.
He is lovely, I really look forward to watching your progress with this one x
I know! Itâs a strange one but itâs so lovely to give them another chance at something else. Thank you â€ïž
The slow motion and cut at 8:10 had me in stitches hahahahaha
Hahaha glad you enjoyed đđ heâs a big olâ boy to be messing around!!
Finally taking the opportunity to watch some of your older videos. Am also keen to keep my horses barefoot. Sadly my horse sadly needs front shoes in summer.
Im glad I stumbled on your channel, looking forward to seeing more of your videos!
Thank you so much! I post every Sunday (and sometimes Wednesdayâs too if thereâs lots happening!)
@@jenniferrebecca2813 Nice! Iâll definitely keep an eye outđ
Just found your channel...lovely! Really hit a nerve, as my uncle owned a race horse & raced quite well with him locally (did not go track-to-track). Retired him to a lovely farm. Looked alot like Charlie..Big Dude & very socialđđ
Awww thank you! Thatâs so coolâŠtheyâre wonderful animals đ
Love going bf but hooves need to b trimmed regularly. You have no breakover which is so important. Hos foreleg conformation is base wide ...he needs help, trim every few weeks.
Hes super cool
Thank you! Heâs got the cutest nature as well â€ïž
Got a 8 yrs old gelding Iâve had for 6 or more mts that is the same issues as yours đ”âđ«. , hip a bit sore from a fall I think and transition from walk into a gallop shows the sign off the injury, lameness issues pelvis and off hind , soft tissue damage on top of rump đ but I am getting there with him and heâs improving wis massages and oils đ was a race horse đ as well here in aus .
How was he to turn out in the field my tb mare came from her racing yard yesterday but has no respect for the electric
As an ex racehorse he may just have never developed a trot, they tend to go from walk yo canter to gallop then back down again x
Heâs gorgeous. Do you still have him ?đđ
cogratulation on your sucres with this horse, mine are barefoot, botas will no make his feet adapt to the variedad terrain, why pan him when a scratch would be a reward
You have to remember race horses have one speed and no stop.. most donât have much training other to go fast.. no trot or canter with a rider . .
i have hoof boots for my mare!!!
Theyâre a game changer arenât they!!
I know riders do it, but I don't believe in pet-slapping a horse. If they can feel a fly, they don't need to be whacked on the side of the neck. I'd like to know how many people spook their spirited horse by doing this. Just say'in.
I think most living things can feel a fly. My horses seem to respond well to pats, if they didnât like it Iâm sure Iâd be able to read that from them.
I agree. Gentle petting is fine. The slapping...SMH.
