One of the best views in the world is the view along a good horse’s back 😀
You made the problem very clear when you let him turn into that byway. I could see his head going right and left constantly assessing his chances, so he is still far from safe. He'd walk all over a novice driver. A sweetheart though no less dangerous for that. Please be careful, Barry.
Thanks, Anna! Thankfully Silver graduated again with flying colours and his owners are prepared and on top of any antics he might try this time!
One way or another he outsmarted hisowner!
Yes,
some have a bigger head and willfulness
than many people think.
And I guess that the best horses get bored
pulling a carriage on the road,
which is now built for cars.
Maybe driving on a bad dirt road will help for a change.
Maybe it's also confused because the coachman and trainer talk more to
In`Nowhere than to him.
Oh, they will test you. "What can I get away with today?"
Hi Ho Silver!!! You’re a horse after me own heart! Some days, I just can’t be arsed … and many a time I’ve pulled off life’s highway… but the old Lone Ranger there and his side kick Tonto… well, they know what’s good for you, so you better listen to the old geyser, he knows what’s best fer ya. Just watch out if he ever calls you ‘Kimo sabi’… I think is means the glue factory!!! so you better listen up and stop tuning out and turning off. Happy trails Silver, you been the lining in my cloud today, God bless all three of you. Xxx
Nice. Thankyou.
A kind of Reality cannot be written down,
but it can be described.
What you
(decide to)
live
is
(becoming)
reality
and
the reaction of your environment to your reality
is also reality,
regardless of
whether she celebrates you today
and starts an inquisition against you the next day.
Dear innocent baby Silver. ----
It looks to me as if he pulls to the left and stops so that it gives him space to do a u-turn. He’s a clever boy.
So relaxing , 👍🏻everyone
Im a new subscriber! I drive miniature horses and now that my niece is interested in learning and training i dont know quiet how to train a person lol thank you for the videos
Welcome to our channel!
Bring/train or keep yourself in good shape
and take your niece with you to your horse and carriage
as often as possible.
That's all.
So easy. ---
Proven for thousands of years.
❤
I hope we get to find out what the owner said about whether or not they've experienced this. Would be nice to have some answers to help others.
If I were a horses I would want you to be my forever owner
Forever is much to much.
When Your soul escaped the body,
You need no Barry Hook
even not if You would be a horse.
And if Barry Hooks soul escaped his body,
he will see what it was all about.
and when he was a fool
and when he was a wish man.

I have learned so much by watching you on utube, I heared you say you have dvds for training cart horses , please send me a link to look at and order your dvds, I am just getting started in drafts and carting. I have been riding and training riding horses sense I was 10 yrs old. But never done drafts or cart, working horses before now. Thanks for theses training tips . Jessie
Hi Jessie, we sold out of our DVDs a long time ago unfortunately. If we ever sell them again they will be well advertised.
Another great video full of information, Baz. Thank you!! Drive safe this weekend, Baz and Rhi!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Did You give yourself copie right?
@@Mitmacher Copy right? For what? Calling Mr. Hook my friend, or myself a Retired Paramedic,which is a job I did for 37 years? Or a Horse trainer, which is the job I now do? Learn how to spell, and please be more clear on what you are asking someone, please. Jenn.
@@jenniferlehman326
Believe it or not.
I had a Lipizzaner,
I got him from a pasture about 30 times
and he greeted me differently every time. ---
But after being mistreated
as a young horse in Hungary,
he preferred to have his legs broken
rather than pull a carriage again.
@Mitmacher I can believe it. That's why you make a great riding horse out of those sorts. Make them Calm, Confident and Happy in any job ypu put them too. My old mare, she's gone now, I had her from a weanling, until 27 years old, she was a Percheron/Thoroughbred cross. And she looked more the Thoroughbred type but had great bone and hooves. She loved jumping and swimming. And opening gates!! She was my female Houdini!! LOL 🤣 I had to chase her down 4 fields by road, ask a farmer if I could jump in the river ahead of her, and put a rope halter that I made on the fly on her. Then up the bank of the farmers field, and ride her back to our barn. Thank goodness it was summer!! My friend who drove me to the farm, stayed behind us with her hazard lights on, and I rode her on the shoulder of the road. We had to make sure there was always a clip on the gate leading to the river after that. She was 3 years old and had just been backed. She had maybe 3 rides on her when she did this, by the way!! Hmm...I wonder why? LOL 🤣 Best Regards from a Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦

Thankyou.
It would be great
for me
to meet You
and Yours .
Horses are very different
like men.:
Horses and:Collision of feelings or of responsibilities.
My horse Stubborn ran away,
along with 2 of 5 horses,
when a man with a large black dog suddenly appeared.
The others couldn't find their way out of the forecourt.
A minute later,
when Stubborn noticed that 2 horses were missing,
he was already on his way back
at a fast, determined trot,
1m behind him on the left and right,
the other two horses,
together form an arrowhead!
Not all at all,
decide like Stubborn,
and as quick and decisive.
Maybe 1 in 1000.
We love to hear about your Stubborn, he seems like a very special horse.
That pony seemed to need those pit stops judging by its rapid breathing.
Silver was quite unfit in this video! He improved a lot by the time he finished his training.
I think he's going to get better the fitter he gets. I noticed he was breathing harder when he stopped than after he had that rest. Let's face it most of us don't keep our horses in as much work as at home as they get when they are in training. I try hard to drive mine as much as I can. Our driving horses are like athletes and need regular exercise to feel good and do their job. Barry, can you advise us on keeping our horses conditioned?
Good point.
What helps a lot is traveling by horse.
Two or three weeks of hiking, riding or carriage driving.
Overnight in the open. Spending 24 hours with Your horse,
constantly new surroundings, new events
and everything Coping successfully together
is what binds together.
You may reach a succsess in three weeks,
That you would never achieve otherwise
over years.
I've never seen a pony breathing that fast, I thought he just wanted a rest, or he's asthmatic, or his heart is about to give up... (I know, dramatic...), but then he trots off with his ears pricked!
@@KimParkerAdcock Good Point
My first horse was a 4 year old Boulonais.
The seller, a coldblood friend and animal dealer, sold him because he had a heart problem.
He didn't tell me. I assumed he lacked training.
When I had him at a small lake and showed him the water, in was summer, he went in, swam 30m and sank.
It was so depressing, even connecting the salesman's malice.
The horse probably had a heart defect or a narrowing of the artery at the heart.
It, the horse may have saved my life
because if this had happened while crossing a main road
it could have had worse consequences.
We had verry soon a good friendship. So maybe he knew that he is not what I
espected, and went, the first time, strait in the wather, which he dit not whant to
touch, two days bevor.
He offert himself to protect me, and others and I also got my money back after two court- apointments.
Likly an alkoholiker how killed himself to protect his family for his bad habits. --
An intensiv start for me with horses and horseowner - horsefriends. ----
Why are so many horse owners so inconsiderate? ----
This horse may also have a health problem
and it is looking that he lacks training, which is true.
So you have to train it first to realize that there is more?
In a few words:
A horse lover
cheated me out of money
and put my life
and that of others in danger.
His horse,
however
saved me from his wickedness,
by going to his own death. --
Best advice is to build up trip distance steadily with lots of walking and breaks where needed. If you can get your horse out daily, great! If not, make allowances for that. Some horses have a higher natural level of fitness - or at least return to fitness quicker than others, so make sure you know your individual horse. A good thing to do is to count your horse's respiration rate (breaths) over 15 seconds when stationary after. exercise. After reasonable exercise (i.e. trotting a fair while) 20-30 breaths in 15 seconds is good. 20-30 breaths in 15 seconds may be normal for your horse, or getting high. 40+ and the horse needs to rest and further exercise needs to be scaled back until they are fitter. In this clip Silver looks to be around 26-27 breaths per 15 seconds, which was normal for him. Knowing your horse's norm can really help you when you're getting them fitter. Also important to note is recovery rate - if your horse has 35 breaths / 15 seconds and is still breathing that fast after 10minutes, it is very different to a horse doing the same but having returned to normal resting rate or near that, in say just 5 minutes.
1 horse power holding up the Audi R8 500+ HP I know which one I’d rather be in/on lol
Us too ;)
Amazing training, and really a eeird, risky habit of that pony
Re quick or heavy breathing: as others mentioned is he well or just undertrained?
Just unfit but getting fitter! Have a read of some of the other comment replies. Some horses naturally have a higher breathing rate even when they are fit. Recovery rate is important to keep track of as well as breathing rate.
Barry do the horses ever get splints from troting on the hard roads if they are not fit and their leg bones not conditioned forvthe jarring?
Conditioning for any exercise is definitely important.
Good job on legging him up
Brilliant. Where can I get one of your rubber bits from ?
@@user-sw8im2ol4s
Do you want to go on a diet
with a soft mouth lock
?eating brake?
People are not horses.
They must have their own "carriage lines
and use and guide bits".
We mostly use Winderen now, which can be found on their website!
@@barryhook2
In Germany there is an experienced coach horse trainer
who has a rubber bit, along with a
Manufacturer, further developed.
He also builds his own carriage forks, extra wide
for training horses for one-horse teams.
His name is:
Karl Friedrich von Holleuffer-Kypke.
He is pro rubber bit like You.
I don't know the company name.
But he also says:
Bits have to be as different
as shoes of men.
Isn't it the case that some horses with a certain level of training,
You must make it clear that there is no alternative?
(until it is happy with doing the job, what means it needs
constanly this job, some or 6 times a week.
A good breeder and trainer of Lipizzaners in Hungary said:
This horse needs work 6 days a week. If he doesn't have it
You can't stop it at a traffic light.
This horse may not be fit for the road if left unworked for too many days.
So training would then only be part-time employment or activism
and in the best case to find out how it work and how not.)
A whip, auxiliary reins, a nother person... can help.
In order to be safe, they need to follow the instruction of their driver, so yes in a way they must learn they cannot just do as they like. They might not understand that it is to keep them and everyone else safe, but they must do it anyway.
I think you experience the best with one of the best horses,
if you "marry" it,
what means,
only with him and spending most of your time day after day.
The best ones don't want to share you with others
or don't accept it if you only have 2 hours for your horse every
now and then.
"It brings your shoes to your bed" in the morning,
just that you get up soon and have time for it,
brush its fur, it hears your voice again and "
on the road again"
ready for new adventures together.
It's a mystery to me how quickly Barry Hook achieves success
the horses have, including how quickly they trust him.
An excellent way to train a horse indeed!
he figures he needs a break... maybe he does, he is breathing pretty hard by the way his body is bouncing with his breathing,,, and if he was fat and out of shape, he doesn't have the condition to work
Silver had been slowly conditioned throughout his training to be able to cope with this level of work. Given that he would stop like this within 100m from the yard, the problem was behavioural, not related to fitness.. He is breathing is fine in this video, when taking into account the distance, weather and Silver's fitness - Rhi keeps a close eye and knows what each horse's individual norm is within a couple of weeks of training. Another factor increasing Silver's breathing rate is his mental state - he is frustrated and possibly a bit anxious at not being able to 'get away with' his usual trick of stopping or spinning around. Both of which will increase respiration rate. Unfortunately in order to solve the problem, we do have to put him through this process. Thank-you for your concern, though.
"conservative"
horses like dogs are existentialists,
So they are essentially concerned with ensuring their survival.
Dogs are in their element and do their best when they are hunting or guarding a property,
horses when they are running away, observing their surroundings and eating.
They accept more of a cowboy horse task or as a hunting and war horse than
waiting to pull the carriage around for 2 hours every sunny Sunday.
This could be the deepest shared experience with your horse,
on his back
or next to him on an S-Pedelec bike (power supporting up to 45km/h)
to run away.
Have you ever noticed
how much
your horse would like
to run away
with you?
Hopfully not from You.

Runaway Horse / Ein fliehendes Pferd
Novella
»Helmut and Sabrina Halm have always managed vacations of lazy privacy in their favourite retreat on Germany’s Lake Constance. So when the energetic, handsome Klaus Buch turns up with his beautiful wife Hella, Helmut is quite ready to dismiss this dimly familiar acquaintance. But Klaus is overjoyed to recognise his old schoolmate Helmut, eager to recall every incident of their shared childhood, and to display every detail of his successful lifestyle as a thoroughly emancipated, thoroughly fit, author and environmental expert. The precious days of privacy give way to an unwanted and awkward intimacy, as the Buchs and Halms hike, dine and sail together. Their joint activities aggravate myriad psychological tensions among the four characters, which are all the more intensely ironic for their peaceful veneer, and which must eventually erupt. […] Runaway Horse is an extraordinary novella, that comprises at once the concision and wit of s short story and the grace, narrative intrigue and psychological complexity of a longer novel.«
(Book description from the English edition by Secker & Warburg)
This kind of horses
Give him the kick to
run as fast as it can,
at the point of time You decide
and the derection and lengs too.
This will probably prevent your horse
from changing the timing, direction and length
of his "fire drill"
with his different overview of the situation.
So todays
so called
horse-problems
are men-home-made,
keeping us and trainer busy.
Being bored,
Boring others
plus horses.
Without an exit. (?)
@@MitmacherA whip helps great.
Isn't that a wealth,
to have someone to run away with,
from a for Soul, character, spirit...
threatening environment?
That certainly applies to horses,
but not also to people?,
and also to people and animals,
especially flight animals like horses?
Tens of thousands fled from East Prussia to the West
with the help of their horses, including my father's father's family.
Deep human-horse experiences were experienced there,
that are worth sharing.
"Fleeing animals fleeing with people.
And other people hunt people with horses." ---
Who are you and I?
a hunter or a
“Fleeing animal”?
There are times
when you only have that choice!
How can I say first without saying I'm first?
I came the earliest😅
@@astm9603
No, I came earlier.
I`m older. I`m first.
I have hier the right of the firstborn
after Barry Hook.
Forgiveness.
First I was pushed out by a suspicious woman.
And she starts the training with a baby,
my,
not as experienced as Barry Hook.
So much toys, sweets and later the TV helpt her much.
and saved the situation
of the need of being traint,
just some how.
Money is speaking(teaching) in a rich world
and all You can exchange for it.
So more truh:
The education of money
then spirit
we have this days.
And here we are,
preferring dogs and horses as the babies we train.
Toys and the TV and the Smartphone...
doesn't work as good on animals.
So they need us,
especially because of the adults' playground,
the Motor Cabin Carriage Street,
the car-movers playground.
It would almost be playful
without this playground.
So playing adults
are destructiv.
They are not traint well,
see above.
@@astm9603 I like it!
