Everyone is like "oh my Tb gelding." "My Irish sport." "My thoroughbred mare." And I'm like "my boerperd 14h gelding." He's not a great fancy horse but he jumps like a pro even if he can be a bit lazy. I rescued him from a shelter and he hadn't ever cantered in his life. I taught him everything and even if you get a shelter horse, they are just as great as purebreds!
I feel guilty. I am a western rider and LOVE these videos! I'm even considering doing some showjumping with my AQHA barrel/rope horse! Hahaha. This will be interesting.
11:01 she is beautiful and she is my dream horse the breed. height, markings and colour are literally what my perfect horse would look like only her name isn't Blaze. But she is still gorgeous.
Dom! When you rode in Australia, where did you go to give your horses XC training? Now days a lot of pony clubs dont allow you to rent out their course any more, and if they do its insanely expensive. Some PCs have training days but if your horse gets stuck on a jump (usually water jumps) they ask you to move on after 5 minutes which is not too helpful. We actually made a shallow water jump at home but our land is clay based and therefore stepping into the jump is sticky and slippery and just not a good learning experience for beginner horses. Any suggestions?
I am a thirteen year old girl who is still pretty novice at riding but a have a 15:3 thoroughbred chestnut. I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I first brought him but now I wouldn't trade him for anything he has the best nature and is a calm sweetheart. (:
I would like to see an 'Along for the Ride' video dedicated to one horse. Like for this new chestnut mare named Revy, you could film how you train her for a week and then just talk about her potential, personality, training methods you want to use, stuff like that. I would really like to see how you bring a horse along over a period of time.
Love you guys and your videos! Your channel is the first one I check when I log on to CZcams. Thanks for your hard work - you're very informative as well as entertaining!
Wish I could find a barn close enough to me as good as yours, as many barns that I've went to I've worked on walking and trotting, and only one lesson of canter nothing more. I've been doing lessons for over a year now and just want to find a nice barn that I learn at!
The easiest thing to do is to find local shows that deal with the discipline you like.(hunter/jumper, eventing, dressage, etc.) A lot of barns bring students, and you can see which barns are available.
I had the same thing happen to me. I have been ridding over 13 years but never found a good enough trainer. They didn't teach me how to ride they thought me how to train the horse, which I mean is good and all but I really wanted to learn how to compete, I went to shows but I never won or placed. Last year my trainer just quit out of nowhere so what I did was go online and search show stables in my area. The closes affordable one I found was over 45 minutes away but I went there and just a few weeks ago I went to my first show in five years and I got fourth in my jumping equitation class out of 12. So my recommendation is instead of looking for Normal barns look for show barns and they will have you cantering in the first lesson.
Jamie Duggan their reins look "tight" because of the contact. The horses are on the bit, accepting tje contact, the riders are not pulling on the reins. Dom and Jimmie both have exceptional soft, following hands.
omg who cares about her height seabiscuit was a small horse but he became a legend. I have an old 15hh quarter horse and I've yet to meet another like him
I love your videos! I found your channel while looking for help for my horse n I. Shes an 11 yr old TB, never raced, well schooled in dressage but ended at a rescue that abused her so mow shes very reactive and spooky. Ive ridden for 52 yrs but shes my first TB and were both still figuring each other out.
The Zenyatta step! I've never heard it called the Zenyatta step before. My OTTB also does that but I was calling it Zeus' one sided Spanish walk. Why is it that some do that?
It's an anxiety thing. It's like they want to paw but can't because they are cued to move forward. Zennyatta was famous for it because she always did it on the way to the saddling paddock.
I got an OTTB a few months back and will be coming up on a year with him in a couple months. He will sometimes have these times were he is just fast over jumps. He's a really sweet boy and is usually very good. Is there an exercise you would recommend for a speedy horse? Should I just do a lot of gymnastics with him? Also I do think his balance could use work. I would love to get him do you some cross country but the only thing that comes to my mind when I think of what would happen is sprinting, sliding, falling, foot stuck in jumps, legs broken, vet bill. Anything you can recommend for my horse or am I just nervous and he'll probably do just fine?and if that's the case how do I just chill out? I'm usually up for anything if my instructor says nothing is gonna happen but I do not have an instructor at the moment.
So, didn't realize this was a problem. Took my horse on a trail ride, she had never seen a ditch. We cross a field and I realize there is a 4ft x 4ft drainage trench through the middle. No problem, just take her down at an angle and let her walk in/out gently. Nope, my horse (that I've never jumped in her life) cleared that thing and then some. I wasn't ready and came completely forward landing with my chest on her neck. Needless to say neither of us are show quality :)
So just out of curiosity. If they're sponsoring you does that mean they give you the boots for free or do you get a discount or something? Love this series by the way.
My tall boots were fitted completely wrong I really need to get new ones but then I need to sell the ones I have but my calf is huge, I have a full calf for my boots and if is not big enough 😞
Riders in America and Canada are mostly taught to half seat, which means that we lean forward and kind of popped up and down out of the saddle, sort of like posting. It keeps you in control and more forward, and it also keeps a lot of horse's move comfortably.
Ok it really isn't smart to have a green horse right from the track and just start jumping him like that. You should really start slower, not going right to ditches and water and all that. Not the best idea.
hi my name is Kayla and I watched all your videos and wish you had more. anyway I do horse riding and I have been doing it 4/5 years now I riding a lazy pony but he isn't my own pony but I was thinking when I'm 16 I will able to buy a horse the reason way I'm not buying just now as I have a family that isn't crazy about horses than me and I would be by myself when it comes to looking after and paying like. I was thinking if yours could give me tips and look at my video of me riding and wish you lived closer as I would love to work with you. x
+Evention TV hi Dom and Jimmy you guys are my INSPIRATION and joy i love all your videos and love your horses they look like they are well looked after anyways hope u guys have a great christmas and a happy new year from kaylee also can you give me some tips and comments on my jumping post thank you😊
"I have a confession to make. I have fallen in love with a tall, slender, Italian........... Tall boot" 😂

The horses overall, did really well

I live right by fair hill i cant believe you went there!
I love your boots!
Tucci boots are to die for :O best splurge I ever made.

Love these. Keep making them!
omg who cares about her height seabiscuit was a small horse but he became a legend. I have an old 15hh quarter horse and I've yet to meet another like him
Moco does that...
He’s a fully trained, experienced eventer
He dislikes ditches...
Where you meant to be leaning forward a lot for this towards the start or???? GREAT VIDEO
what a FANTASTIC introduction video! your editing skills are amazing.
I love your videos! I found your channel while looking for help for my horse n I.

I miss evention!!!!! Are there plans for new episodes?!?!?❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

u 2 are super cute i love the to watch your show
i have custom tucci boots too! love them
Gaaah i want some Custom two toned boots from italy. *sigh* oneday (:
What level does the new mare compete at please? I thought that as she is a ten year old, that she most likely does have a competition history.
Dom, I'm just curious but why do you need 3 up and coming youngsters/greenies?
cant waitfor the next one (: You guys have helped me so much with riding! Im even planning to retrain a horse I was given c:
The Zenyatta step! I've never heard it called the Zenyatta step before. My OTTB also does that but I was calling it Zeus' one sided Spanish walk. Why is it that some do that?

Revvy is a really nice mover!
I saw the Texas flag in the arena. Does anyone know where it is?
I got an OTTB a few months back and will be coming up on a year with him in a couple months. He will sometimes have these times were he is just fast over jumps.

Does anyone know where/what website they got Revi from?

He is so lucky he has a stubben biomex :( I want one
Are you guys going to Rolex this year?
pls make another one!!!!!

They get free stuff from the sponsors, but in return they have to advertise that brand. :)
megan proffitt That's what I thought. Thanks.

You're welcome. :)
My tall boots were fitted completely wrong I really need to get new ones but then I need to sell the ones I have but my calf is huge, I have a full calf for my boots and if is not big enough 😞
When is Episode 6 being released?
How many horses are on their farm??
Can you start making pony club for kids
My coach has an 8 year old off the track throughbred gelding name Rev😂😃
love this it taght me a few things
what is the name of your stables?
Is kaz a stallion
careful if you put your heel down any more dom, its gonna snap in half ;)
i wonder where their barn is located
Girly Vlogs Cochranville, PA
What did she called at the exercise at 6:40?
I am looking for a stable for my tb gelding
We could tell she was jealous by the faces she made
you need to keep your seat when our cantering :)
+painted passion They are top level riders. Stfu. You don't have even a fraction of the riding knowledge that they do. :)
Riders in America and Canada are mostly taught to half seat, which means that we lean forward and kind of popped up and down out of the saddle, sort of like posting. It keeps you in control and more forward, and it also keeps a lot of horse's move comfortably.
Half seat in the eventing world is super super common I've never seen a rider fully sit a canter
a small horse???? i ride a pony 140cm hight...
my mare is nasty for saddling can you do a video to show how to stop bitting
+Amelia Young does your mare try to bite you when the girth is being done up? Mine sure does....
i have a black and white gelding
Why do you guys put the horses on the trailer in there tack?!
Probably because it's a really short drive
Rachell Shuya It's a short drive and they need the horses ready to go. Usually the tack isn't on. :)
wait nvm I look at the wrong angle
Ok it really isn't smart to have a green horse right from the track and just start jumping him like that. You should really start slower, not going right to ditches and water and all that. Not the best idea.
They start slower...why do you think that they just get the horse and start jumping ditches?
Late reply however it's really beneficial to get them used to going to new places and see how reactive they are.
I'm pretty sure they know what they are doing. seeing as they do it very well, and for a living
