From Dangerous to Docile: Rehabilitating a Horse That Attacked Its Owner

- Join me in this insightful video as I tackle the challenge of working with a horse exhibiting complex behaviors. This horse presents a unique set of issues: food aggression, difficulty in being caught, a tendency to buck riders off, and overall defensiveness. My approach is grounded in empathy and a deep understanding of horse psychology. I focus on interpreting the horse’s behavior to foster a better understanding between horse and rider. Through patience and a calm, confident demeanor, I aim to transform these challenges into opportunities for growth and bonding.
This video is not just about addressing behavioral issues; it's about adopting a holistic approach to horsemanship that respects and understands the horse's perspective. Whether you're a seasoned equestrian or new to horse training, this video offers valuable insights into effective communication and training techniques.

A lot of the time the handler needs as much training. Remi's owner was too aggressive.
💯 that woman isn't the right person for that horse@@Mitch_B67
I definetly recommend the patreon page-it's awesome
Don't give any weight to the haters. What people comment online is most likely jealously. Keep doing what you're doing. You're awesome. I've learned a lot. I'm wondering where to get some of your tools. Oh...I've owned, trained and shown horse for around 55 years 😮
love all your videos Ryan. I stay in California and my 8 yrs old son started lessons just last month. I M learning a lot from you
People who think Ryan "does the same video over and over" are the same people who think they know everything about horses and have nothing left to learn. There is ALWAYS something new to learn.
I Agree
Literally. I tell my girls all the time you are teaching you horse every time you interact with her with what you do but also with what you don't do
In general life . If you think you can't learn anymore. You just become ignorant. At 55 years old I learn something everyday. Even when I thought I knew it
And the new thing to learn is there are much kinder ways to get the same and even better results without the use of a whip or even a lead rope. Equine ethology had moved on.
Ryan. L. Have. Hourses. The. Same. But. L. Did. Same. He. Is. Big. Cob. He. Is. Beatifull. It. Worked. Thank. You. Still. Bite.
Wow I’m surprised people are complaining about him doing the “same video over and over”. I actually find it fascinating watching him evaluate a new horse every time. I always learn something new regarding horse temperament and personality.
Remi is a jewel in the making. So sad these horses find themselves in a kill pen merely because they started out with the wrong humans. These horses have human problems, they don’t have horse problems…great video ❤
That's true. When horses "start out with the wrong human(s)", it is certainly as you describe it.
I had a yearling filly that I bought, over 30 years ago. The owner (who had 8 or 10 horses, including 2 foals) told me that the filly I was interested in buying was "incorrigible". I had a different opinion: just by noticing how free-spirited she was (and how she just loved the school kids who got off the bus near her large enclosure: who greeted her, every school day).
The lady (who was incorrigible, herself) sold me this Black Beauty for $250, in 1990.
---
What people don't realize, sometimes, is that horses each have their own personality: I simply loved this spirited filly!
She was so "teachable" because she really wanted to learn (and she liked people)!
By contrast, a black stallion (also a true 'black') was in the open-air stall right across from my horse (in Arizona). He had two different owners during that whole time: men who wanted to dominate and control (and the stallion would have 'none' of that: he bucked them both off, breaking the second owner's arm). The horse would watch how I interacted with my filly, as she became full-sized, over time: he even "warmed up to me" because he was such an observant animal!
("I want to be treated just like that," I heard him say, in my mind.)
---
With the right human(s), Ryan shows what is possible.
Note: If "dominance" is the goal, people are better off with a dog, not a horse!
I had a "working relationship" and a "partnership" with my horse: I wouldn't have had it any other way!
He is a great communicator, explains in detail from her perspective, sensitive go her specific needs, not generalities. Great to be so sensitive with knowledge for you to use thatbcan be used with other horses too. He understands horses extremely well.
Absolutely, now I hope this lady takes on board everything Ryan is about to tell her because theres a huge knowledge deficit on her part. Its lovely that she rescued Remi but she needs to learn what to do and what not to do to help this lovely girl.
@@ahashdahnagila6884dominance and domestication have the same root syllable. please don’t overlook the agressive horse that needs some of both. if you personalize them too much you can get hurt. generally they are bigger than us. if a horse tries to really dominate me I put them back in a stall. That is a better way of coping with their aggressions than causing them pain. Many of them understand « time out » the way we do.
Imagine the trauma this horse has been through. It is a miracle that she can be saved.
I got a 4 y/o unbroke mare from the same kill pen at the beginning of August. She had a lot of the same qualities as this mare. Defensive, fearful, reactive, but also so honest and willing to learn. I only started riding her at the end of November because she needed at least 2 months just to decompress and build a bond with me before I could introduce any training to ride. Seeing how this mare was acting at the beginning of the video, they should never have started riding her when they did. She's so scared to just be touched, no wonder she bucks under saddle. I'm glad the owner reached out for help. I love the mare's personality from this video and I'm glad she has a professional working with her to help her reach the greatness she has in her
I was thinking exactly the same, he should never have tried to ride her at that point. Poor horse.
Thank u for rescuing her
In the UK where there are no kill pens. I can only imagine how awful they are and what dreadful experiences this lovely young horse has had so far in her life. You are right, I am sure any horse coming through that would need a good few months to decompress, chill out and settle into the yard routine, make friends with other calm quiet horses and learn to trust the humans looking after it and feel safe. That was a nasty bite and I think she must have felt really cornered and panicked to do that. She seems like she has a soft nature. She's a gorgeous horse and I'm looking forward to seeing her progress.
Agree, owner and farrier are morons lol
Remi seems more defensive than aggressive to me. She’s so pretty, either way, she’s worth the effort to bring her to a calm level around people. 👍to the owner for saving from those horrible kill pens.
Get a gentle chiropractor to check her right hind/pelvis etc.
Also seems like a lack of respect or trust. She's absolutely stunning
@@dianelaes3538 I would hope that the first thing these owners do before calling a trainer is to call a vet and get a complete workup to ensure these horses aren't in pain. A lot of training issues and defensiveness are merely the horse saying OUCH THAT HURTS or reacting because of the memory of pain.
Defensivo lo que quieras esa conducta equina es un peligro ,Tienes tres soluciones Redoma, apartarlo de ti y que sea caballo de rodeo o comida de gatos .Yo tengo un brazo de fierro gracias aún matungo así
@@lindylou7973 I think they did that already. This is normal+ she has more horses and look's knowledgeable to me. It would be very careless to not get the horse a vet check. I don't know but I don't believe this woman did not do it.
I don't and will never train horses but I still spent 48 minutes watching... Your knowledge and demeanor is mesmerizing to see. Kudos sir!
It isn’t boring to have an equine conversation to make a horse safe and know what you want them to do. Great post.
The viewers that complain that every video is the same, are watching for the wrong reasons.
Your videos are very helpful, and have given me that lightbulb moment.
Keep doing your thing. 👍
I don’t even own a horse, nor do I plan to, just love watching his insight and skill.
Remy is a lovely young horse, and I think underneath her uncertainty around people is a very sweet horse. She’s willing but with reservations, which I would expect coming from an unknown past. I’m looking forward to seeing how she progresses. Time and patience will work wonders with this beauty.
She sure is a beauty.
Totally different horse at the end. She looked bored--like she could have fallen asleep! I also noticed that she was coming toward you, asking for attention from you. So sweet!
@catherinee.millard1831 to me she doesn't feel bored. She is tired and she knows that when she is around this person she can afford to give up attention.
She is relieved, not only we humans want to finally be understood and love to understand ourselves
This little mare is beautiful! God Bless the lady who decided to give her a chance for the life she deserves! It really is obvious that Remi is defensive and unsure about what is expected of her. She had every opportunity to become aggressive and dominating, yet instead she yielded to gentle pressure because it was applied with respect and empathy. I am certain Remi is capable of trust and respect. ❤
What would be helpful is not to expose horse and owner to a constant, never ending torrent of words. It's very exhausting to listen to it and get anything out of it! Couldn't the training be done quietly and in sections with short explanations after each part? I am sure it would be more productive 🤔
@@ruthrudolf9308If this isn't your style of learning there are other trainers out there. 🤷
I'm thinking she's terrified from being run through auctions and being in a kill pen. She has no reason to trust humans after that. It's going to take time to gain her trust again, after that horror. Poor girl. I'm glad she's getting the chance at a normal life.
If we can just imagine what horses in kill pens go through....overcrowding, fighting for resources including food and water, fear, panic, human interactions...to name a few, is unimaginable. I can't imagine the fear they go through while in these pens.
Thank you to this woman for saving Remy's life.
Having empathy and understanding that many of her reactions are most likely related to fear and defensiveness, helps having an assertive yet empathetic leader. Thank you, Ryan!
I would suspect it's mainly sheer survival, constant sympathetic and hyper vigilant state that these horses fo through before complete shut down. The fact that Remy tried to survive and live is an attestation of her strength in my opinion.❤
Ryan, I think you're the best horse trainer on YT. Anyone who finds this 'boring' isn't watching carefully enough; your first visits are much like going on first dates with different horses! EVERY 'conversation' is different, every moment introduces different stimulus and response; the body language is subtle but clear. This to me is one of the MOST fun experiences to build rapport with a horse.
I agree he is outstanding ...I've trained horses for50plus years ,Very successfully..
And still i am learning.
Ryan is a brilliant horseman ..I am so happy people are able to share this kind if imformation ..so utterly basic but so absolutely critical to the of the horses training ..and future relations with humans ..He's an absolute star 🌠
I think people who find him “boring” are likely non-horse people who just watch for entertainment… these videos are so informative and many of his videos hammer in the basic groundwork we need to actually help our horses. He has such a unique style and is a very gifted trainer.
@Lou.B thank you!
I agree 100%…he’s methodical and learns about each individual horse before moving forward with a handling and training plan.
RR is brilliant at reading horses. I was fortunate to take a 10-day course with him. Whew!! I learned so much! Ryan is an awesome teacher for horses and humans, he’s the real deal.
What a beautiful girl! Can hardly believe she was dumped in a kill pen. She just needs someone to take small steps and not trigger defensive aggressive behavior. Ryan is a wizard, and this is one of his best teaching videos. I will be watching often. Thank you Ryan.
Remy decided pretty quickly that Ryan is pretty okay. It will be fun to see Jake work with her. The steps might seem like they are the same, but every horse is a bit unique.
they sure have golden hearts. Just takes someone who can see that. 🥰
She's defensive and very smart. Developing trust and team mentality with her is key. A strong "one person horse". When bonded, she will lay down her life for her person
Love these longer videos!
Glad you like them!
Excellent video Ryan!!!
Id say she is defensive. I imagine she is going to be a fantastic horse with the correct training. Shes absolutely stunning!
I love how you could read this horse so well and reveal her kind and generous spirit. She seems to appreciate the way you “hear” and respect her? I learnt a lot from this video. What a nice horse.
The horse has a fine character. The owner needs more confidence how to handle her. Is great that she was looking for help.
Pressure and release,and not rushing through training. I like how slow and understanding of a horse really helps a horse trust you.
And consistency
She is a smart girl. She has had some trauma previous. Love what Ryan is doing
What a beautiful girl! Who knows what she has been through. She seems more fearful than anything else and I bet she came by it honestly. Poor girl. So glad she is with you❤
Thank you for defining "honest". When I first started riding, my trainer said things like that all the time, like I was supposed to know what he was talking about. I didn't. Others were: "get out of their mouth", and "in your pocket".
I was so impressed with how well Remi did so quickly. She just needed someone to take things slow with her and really build trust. What a good girl!! I can’t wait to see where her story goes!! Bless this lady for rescuing her and putting the time into her!!
This might be the latest yt gold. So glad you’re posting these videos
Of course you do similar things. Its a check list. Then its customized as you go.
Lovely horse. She will come along.
What a beautiful precious horse! Thank you for bringing out her true potential!
Wonderful video…you read her so beautifully. I once trained my dog with a woman who took the world title. She was incredible as she did not train A + B = C but rather took a tiny million little steps to just reach “A”. She “shaped” the animal vs forced training. You remind me of this 🙏💙 This horse is a gem and I’m so glad she’s in great hands.
May I ask who the trainer was? I would love to train my dog but there’s so many “trainers” online that are garbage basically. Just for clickbait mainly
Remi is just beautiful. Beautiful glossy coat and I love her white markings. I think the poor girl had some rough times before ending up in the kill pen. She’s definitely defensive as opposed to aggressive.
I so appreciate your overall philosophy regarding training horses.
Ryan words can’t describe how amazing you are! In a matter of minutes there’s a change in Remi. Kudos to the owner for bringing her out and hopefully she can rewatch this to see how she micromanages but I totally understand why she has her guard up. I think the two will become very bonded as they learn together. I need to clone your brain!
I haven’t finished watching this video but I’m very intrigued with your method of slow and gentle approaches. Kudos to the kind lady who saved her ❤
Such a gorgeous horse. She can learn to trust. She is totally worth helping her get past her defenses. Cool to see her progress in this short amt of time w/ him. I would do anything to help this horse progress❤
I don't think this horse was abused, i just think she had found that people don't speak her language. As soon as Ryan started to communicate with her in a way she could understand, she was quite willing.
Thank you couldn’t agree more. Glad Ryan and Jake accepted her in their program. Feeling blessed :)
Excellent evaluation and work with this horse. "Honest" was the word I was thinking as you initially handled her. Thank you for showing us the joy that can be experienced when working with an "honest" horse.
This horse was in protective mode as would be expected. Animals see, feel and act to their surroundings and people.
I am glad this horse met you Ran! and that she is finally read and understood correctly. This is a very good horse. Dear owner, this horse will make you very happy!!
Wow. Thank you to this woman for saving her! She is beautiful and I wish you all the best with her.
I feel for this horse - considering how much change she has had to go through - kill pen, new home etc. She is defensive - and time will be her friend in being able to settle - just as it would be for any animal or person. Thank you for these videos as they are beneficial for the horse and human. I have watched many of these videos over and over as I pick up a new piece of information each time - nothing boring here!!! Each horse is unique and even though I have had horses my whole life, the learning is never ending.
She is stunning. Thank you Both for bringing her to a safe place
Studying with you and Jake I can see this stuff so clearly but I never get tired of watching you. So many subtleties and nuances with revealed with ever horse. This horse is soooo lucky to have you and Jake helping her and the caring person who rescued her. LOVE IT!
@kathlenvonruff477 I also love all these little details.
This horse gives me a feeling that she is something very special if you have gained honest access to her
It’s crazy how most people who own horse think to fix things in the saddle and not on/from the ground
I just saw a video of a Kill horse being rescued. They took routine X -rays and they saw buckshot scattered across her back, which looked normal. I wonder about hidden wounds on this horse.
You can really tell that horse likes you, Ryan!❤
The "kill pens" drug them and ride them to get a video. They almost always do the bareback with halter and lead rope to make them seem broke. They have learned what works to get these horses moved. Most of them don't even ship to slaughter any more.
Wow what a beautiful horse❤ you have the best trainer to help her,,,,
I love her! So thankful for your expertise and understanding. It seems she may have been misunderstood/mishandled for most of her life. I think she has a lot of heart to keep trying and she’s going to be incredible. Love that I can follow her progress. So happy she landed in a good spot with someone who is committed to her.
I was taken aback by the idea Ryan does the same video all the time. I rescued an abused feral feedlot mare a year ago. I utilized the techniques I learned from these videos to work with her. I made very slow progress. She was so scared it was hard to communicate with her. I re watched the same videos over and over again. I learned I had to watch for the smallest signs of communication. She clenched her teeth and didn't lick and chew. She never blew out. So I watched Ryan and released pressure on a slight bend of her body towards me or a tiny lowering of her head. Gradually we started communicating more and I would get more visible signs of relaxation. Well, you should see her now. Shes an actual horse with a great deal of talent and personality. I would never have been able to do this if I didn't watch Ryan doing the same thing, with lots of horses, over and over again.
I am totally blind, and I have spent many many hours with a miniature horse who was previously abused by Amish people. I know how to use my remaining senses of smell hearing and touch to safely interact with horses as a totally blind person. My next step is to take some lessons, and then train my own miniature horse as a guide horse for myself.
🥰 "little steps" for this little one. Excellent vid and champion horsemanship.
Lastly, she is such a beautiful horse with awesome confirmation! Does have a sweetness of spirit in her,too. Agree with Ryan, feeling safe is high on her priority list. When she feels that trust consistently, her sweetness will come out more as she relaxes into it.
Reading anyone correctly is so important. Seeing sensing and hearing what she’s saying is right on. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Ryan. You’re reading this mare very nicely 😊
This mare is so nice! Could be she was well started but ended up with soneone who pushed her and was heavy with handling methods. Well worth the time to redo her basics and get the trust........
If you've "always wanted to buy from a kill pen", (admirable), then you ALSO have to expect dangerous behaviour. Of course you won't always get dangerous behaviour, but they're in a kill pen for a reason, and one of the reasons horses end up there IS dangerous behaviour. So its very naive for this owner to be surprised... you should accept there's always the possibility.
I love how I am watching this and the trainer who got bucked off has a video underneath claiming her to be a biting bucking monster!
Fantastic video. Ryan you are a super communicator. Both with horses and humans.
Lotsa great things here. Love the way you've taken previous teaching from greats, who've also taken their teachings from greats to keep the horse relationship message going.. ie it's not just treats and pets or how beautiful they are. Also love the way you self-mandate "reading" a horse before doing anything first. All that talking around the horse actually makes her relax. Love the way your messages to her are clear and concise. All that wiggling of the rope made her nervous because she didn't know what the owner was saying. Love the way to teach/train to each side differently since they are "different " brains. Yes, lengthy vid, but very worthwhile. Thanks so much
She's going to be awesome! I really like how you read the horse and explain what's happening and why.
She has lovely markings. I'm so glad she got a second chance.
She's a beautiful horse. Ryan, I love how you meet a horse where they're at, allow them to get comfortable and curious instead of just jumping in and pushing them or God forbid rush into trying to ride them. It is more respectful and kind to the horse and like you said builds rapport and a good foundation.
Wow, you gave us so much very good information! She is beautiful and lucky to have found her owner and YOU!
I've seen a lot of Horse Trainer's.
You and another guy are by far the BEST Horse Trainer's I have seen in my lifetime, and I'm 62 years old.
I've seen a lot, trust me.
You are GREAT at your job!
Good job!
Whatever you charge, you're worth EVERY Dollar.
I am so glad you addressed that wiggling of the lead rope the owner did at the beginning! I never have liked it. I like your style, you read the horse well.
I happen to have a horse that is VERY food motivated! 😂 One time my horse got out of her paddock and was a block away on the other side of the street. Someone else was feeding that morning and called me all in a panic. I told her to open the gate, hold a flake of hay over her head at the gate and to call my horse good and loud. (She told me later she thought I was crazy, but did it anyway) The other horse that was with her would follow as soon as he realized she was leaving. Sure enough, when she heard her name, she lifted her head, saw the hay, and galloped right back to the open gate! And her pasture mate quickly followed her.🤣🤣
I think the rope jiggle is a Parelli method. I recall seeing that done by a friend who is big into Parelli groundwork.
@@eliara-thevoice8430 I know who teaches it, I wasn't going to mention his name.
Ryan trained with Parelli for four years according to his bio. A lot of his methods and terms are obviously being used by Ryan. I feel like you’re at the wrong place if you don’t like Parelli 😂
@@emilyjoerger8964Anyone who sticks solely to anything one person says and refuses to learn from another is seriously limiting their knowledge and skill. Like I said, I have never liked that rope jiggle. But even a broken clock is right twice a day. 😜
Thank you, Ryan! A great video! What makes it exceptionally helpful is the way Remy is so "honest", i.e shows her reactions to anything you do or ask her to do so clearly that the non-professionals among us can quite easily see from her body language what the tasks you set her cause her to feel. Thanks for explaining every step you take in detail and why you take it at this point beforehand, this provides a wonderful learning opportunity. The difference between the state of the horse in the beginning and at the end of your session together when she was able to relax right next to you shows what a great difference to her outlook on working with humans you have already made. As you said, the mare is likable and willing to learn, but there is a lot to do still before she'll be safe for everyone. And her owner is great: it is not easy to have painful memories of being attacked and not give up on the horse but look for truly competent help and pay for months of training (for the horse and herself) in the hope of rewriting those negative experiences. Good luck to all of you! You're "adding value" not only to this beautiful mare but to a lot of horses out here with your viewers! 🤗
Thank you for your comment!! We are excited to get pass this and grow both her and my horsemanship:)
She's a gorgeous mare.....definitely my kind of horsemanship here.
Remi has beautiful conformation. I hope she becomes comfortable with humans. Ryan's careful handling will go far. 😊
I just found this and it's fantastic. I've learned as much about horse language and training in first 23 minutes than the last 2 years (my friend has "rock solid" mules so he just said "mount up and go"...self training is hard!) . I especially liked seeing the curiosity you talked about early come in later...around 22 minutes Remy starts following after you as you walk away willing with both ears cocked forward and attentive. looks likes she's getting interested and more comfortable. Having only been around well trained older horses, seeing how it works with a younger less easy horse is really hlepful.
I can't get enough of these. I learn something every single time I watch one of your Videos. I need to get to a clinic.
Thanks Ryan for that wonderful video. Great to see, how that mare later trusted you more and was more confident. I also heard the horse owner sucking everything in, by the way how she quickly responded to you. I am very sure, these both will become a wonderful team in the future. Very good job!!! ❤
Really good. Patience and wanting to understand the mindset/situation and feelings of the horse than acting in an empathetic way is so important to build a healthy and trusting relationship. After all, God, the creator is Love, so that is what every creature needs.
Defensive. My mare is the same way and still turns and faces me when she's uncomfortable. We're working on it!
I've never seen you do "the same video" twice. Each horse is different and the opportunity to essentially audit hundreds of horses for free from my couch is something incredible. The complainers have no idea what they're even looking at and that is so sad for their horses.
Love you and your videos so much it helps me so much!!!
Thanks
She's a really lovely horse, I'm so glad that you saved her and are putting the time into her. I think she's going to be a sweet girl once she learns not to be afraid or defensive. Someone didn't take the time or had the patience to really train her properly.
Wow thanks to you and this beautiful horses awesome owner for allowing us to see you working with her and providing such great advice, you explain things very clearly and really help, this horse looks to be nice quality, how great the horse has ended up with the right humans!! ❤
Loved your statement that they are all born with a personality and you can change about 20% of it. Amen. It always breaks my heart to see someone choose a horse with the wrong personality for the rider's goal. Frustration and stress for everyone involved.
I love all the groundwork you teach that makes for such a level headed horse making them safer to be around. Big reason I got a rope now. Also, the “add value” statement! Thanks Ryan!
I learn a lot from your videos. They are all unique as the horses. You can safely ignore those who say otherwise. The internet is full of opinions and not all of them are valid.
I have a 'rescue' horse with food aggression and hyper vigilance. I watch every video you have as I would like to help this horse become calm.
She’s a beauty 🤩 I bought my daughter a pony and although he’s kid friendly, he’s needing some training lately because he’s gotten a little too comfortable and lazy and is developing some bad habits. Also gets spooked easily. I am a complete newby so videos like this are so helpful. Thank you!
I’m astounded people comment on repetition. Every horse is different and Ryan’s diagnosing and seeing what’s needed. I never get tired of watching repetition ,also repetition teaches us all. We learn with repetition, they do too and they find their security through it-
Great video, Ryan. Lovely horse. I enjoy watching you interpret the horse. Pretty cool!
First class as always Ryan! Most yard ‘experts’ that I’ve ever met just take the forceful approach; they say “I’m the boss, and make it happen “ which of course is totally wrong.
I love your approach; well done 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
She is spectacular! Such a WONDERFUL PERSONALITY.
I haven't seen such a willing docile subject in a good while. What a Gem. Good job young sir!
Definitely defensive. I’m working with a similar horse right now, this was VERY helpful! Thx
I really enjoy your videos.
I need to learn as much as i can about horses now that i have one.
As always, Ryan did a great job. I’ll bet the original owner was a clueless tyrant that showed her who was boss, and then sent her to a kill pen when it didn’t work out. This horse needs patience, but she isn’t a difficult horse. The owner made a good choice.
I love your videos. You have such a gift. Your skills can apply to kids too, tweaked just a little lol. I love any video but especially the long ones. I would love to work on a ranch just so I can watch you guys train
This was super-interesting. I know nothing about being around horses. I think they're beautiful, but they're really BIG animals. Seeing what it takes to make them want to be calm around you is very enlightening.
I hope we get to watch her training journey or at the very least a post training update. I finally finished the whole video and I am SO smitten with her! Great video Ryan and SO easy to understand and follow along with what you were doing. Thank you!
What did I take away from this ? .... Reading a horse looks like it takes years to learn. love that you were so patient with her Love from Australia
Thankyou for passing on your knowledge to us less experienced horsepeople . Always something to learn from your videos! I'm ok at the tecnique stuff, but O boy, it's taking me all my life to read a horse correctly, and then a new horse arrives and I'm starting over! 🤣
"Right brain" or "left brain," it doesn't matter. Safety will always trump food. That goes for all living organisms. I truly appreciate your emphasis on going at a pace that works for the horse. If there is one thing that messes people up when working with their animals (and there are way more than one thing,) it's trying to prioritize our own goals over the needs of the animal.
She had a delay in gait in her rear right leg. Assuage and chiropractic would be hugely beneficial on so many levels. She would be learning self care which she has probably never experienced. Bless her heart❤
Great job Ryan. I don’t think your videos are repetitive. Love watching you work a horse and teach the owner.
I like that your videos have repetition. We work with a lot of different horses and being able to see how each horse reacts and being able to watch each scenario helps teach your method even better.
Such a pretty horse. Love how the white in her mane runs right along with the white on her shoulder. She seems sweet. Thank you for explaining the term "being honest". I need to learn how to read horses.
I know, and how cool are those ermine marks on her socks? What a beauty!
Interesting video , amazing what he can do with this horse, stay safe . He seems calm & his voice does not change . Amazing what he does with a rope , it appears the horse is paying attention .
