    I miss your horse videos. I’ve been watching you for years. I don’t have the time to watch your lives, but really enjoy the shorter videos. You’re the reason I first got on CZcams.

    Honestly people get so shitty when you call them out on their cruelty to horses. Using them in sports, using pain bits and whips, putting them in tiny stalls and wondering why they get impatient with their baby. Then people call you stupid for calling it out

    Hello Mr Gore.​ This is a letter of tha­nks.
    My name is Murat and I am from Russia, namely from the Cauc­asus.​ My region is called Kabardino-Ba­lkaria, and before the conquest by the Russian Empire in the 19th century, it was called Cherkessia.​ Our people in tho­se years became famo­us for having one of the finest light ca­valry in the world.​ Our ancestors bred a Breed that is kno­wn all over the worl­d, namely the "Kabar­dian".
    Herd horse breeding is widespread in our region and almost every house has a ho­rse, but that's all.​ People are very ignorant when it comes to horses.​ We do not have such condi­tions and such a dev­eloped equestrian in­dustry as you have in the USA.
    I bought my first horse 3 years ago and have been interested in them ever since­.​ We still drive horses, as in ancient times.​ They break at the age of 2 yea­rs.​ This seemed ab­normal to me and I started looking for information about hor­se training.​ The first book that opened my eyes was Monty Roberts.​ And since then I have read and reviewed a bunch of books and videos.
    And relatively rece­ntly I came across your video on CZcams and now I am wildly delighted.​ There is so much useful in­formation on your ch­annel and on your we­bsite!​ I watch your videos and read yo­ur articles through a translator.​ And I am writing this le­tter using a transla­tor, so I apologize for the mistakes.)
    I really like your approach and the way you treat horses.
    In general, I wanted to thank you very much and wish you co­ntinued success.​ If you ever find your­self in Russia and in our area, know that you have a grateful student here who will gladly receive you as a guest.
    Sincerely, Murat

    Rick, I'm just sassin you: Did you go back out and dry Buddy off or give him hay to warm up? Buddy has to work on his sympathy cuteness, he's getting rusty.
    Have a great day,

    They are trying to get thier body heat up. Give them each a small flake of alfalfa..my boy does that here in Florida when it rains and the temp drops...once he starts the eating process of alfalfa in about 15 min.... it stops... hope that works...it just builds up heat in them

      That is worse and is more harmful to a horse than it shivering for an hour. As long as they can stand somewhere dry and out of wind they usually warm up quick. Their bodies are built to cope as long as they are healthy

  • @toscadonna
    @toscadonna Před 2 měsíci +8

    I’m near you Rick here in North Texas, and it’s like a blast of winter today. I went for a walk and was soaked to the bone and cold. But the horses will get warm from the bacterial fermentation from the food you gave them❤

  • @TheBulle
    @TheBulle Před 2 měsíci +7

    I’ll be honest…I re-blanketed my horses two days ago because they lost their winter coats and the temperatures really dropped even down to freezing at night and it’s super rainy.

  • @frederickbooth7970
    @frederickbooth7970 Před 2 měsíci +5

    Had my largest horse shivering bad like that too a few weeks ago while the same age mares were not at all. He is 21. Brought him into barn & fed him good alfalfa hay. It was a good 1/2 hour before he stopped shivering. If he had not I might have had to bring him in the farmhouse so he could stand by our LPG fire stove so he could warmup. He is a Seattle Slew line horse & is very smart & so is kinda rare as his sire & dam are no longer alive. Typical weather for us here in Oregon! 50f or 55F with winds. That wind chill plus cold rain takes a lot out of a horse. Sometimes for long periods of time with our wet soggy ground with strong winds & heavy rains you just have to keep them protected from weather in a barn. Right now we`re all celebrating!!! Sunny skies with the ground FINALLY drying up after a long wet winter with temps at times going down to 10F! Have you seen Ron Widen`s speech about the proposed expansion of FISA acts? Might make an interesting analysis for your other channel.

  • @flyingfire908
    @flyingfire908 Před 2 měsíci +4

    Had my four horses shivering too yesterday. They already lost most their winter coat, and it was really warm. And then temperature really dropped and it rained and was super windy. As they are all seniors and arthritic, they all went in with some blankets to get warm

    wouldn't your horses appreciate a dry place with straw to lie down, esp. when it rains?
    considering the climate is getting crazy in the next decades, why not make them such a shelter, or expand this feeding shack a bit to protect from at least 3 sides of storm and put some straw in.

    Like us, horses will shiver to keep their muscles warm in case they need to run from a predator. If they have fat reserves, they should be just fine. I think Buddy and Ransom will cope 😉
    I love seeing your boys ❤
    Can we have a closer look at your pond sometime, please 🙂
