  • Many difficult horses bounce around from auction to auction.
    They are labeled Outlaws, Broncs, Counterfeits.
    But can they be saved? I think so!

    Since there are a bunch of snarky comments about my very well trained working dog…Huckleberry is NOT chasing Gus when he is being lunged. He is simply following him. Gus is not bucking because he is afraid of anything he is in mental turmoil from prolonged physical pain. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk! 😉

      Absolutely... Animals need to be allowed to decide how they follow our lead versus being forced to comply!!!
      This is how I chose to train our spaniel... she's very easygoing and does not disappoint!
      Animals unconditionally love us and want to please us...
      Being patient with them while they learn is key to this type of training...
      CC is spot on with her training...

    Aside from your kindness, deep understanding, and knowledge of horses, you have something so many people don't, and that's patience. Too many people are quick to dump an animal if it doesn't instantly become exactly what they want. This horse probably had no reason to trust humans, and you taught him he could. Little Gus certainly came to the right place! P.S. The mule is super cute!

    So nice to get Little Gus' background. And so cute to see again the fence shenanigan's. Twas so funny when you gave them text bubbles. Seeing them again at that fence being naughty brought the giggles back. Thank you for being so patient with him and finding out what the underlying issues were and then giving him proper training to get him past his past trauma so he can enjoy working with you. Quite glad the tying in the barn gave him some quite time to reflect and realize 1) he's not in pain because the saddle was back and 2) this isn't the same at all. so he could calm down and work his way past the past trauma and use his smarts again. Yay.

    Easy to simply grab the manure fork, without any fuss. :-)
    Love to see your horses enjoying the vibes of Huckleberry & Tiny. Shows a lot about your individual horse’s sensitivity and curiosity.
    Really love & appreciate the deep, contemplative, patient approach to sorting out each horse’s issues/needs. SO refreshing to see.
    Thank you for your respectful style and making the effort to put it out there.

    My horse days are long over, but I'm so glad I can live vicariously watching you work with your herd. I've known far too many people who should not have horses - or dogs, or cats, or any other kind of animal. Humans are so stinking impatient and if they don't get instant results, they throw the animal away and get a "better" one. Thanks for being one of the bright lights in a very dark world.

    Another great video showing the time and effort that goes in to changing a troubled horse to a more calm/ peaceful one. Very interesting seeing a horse behaviour/ emotions change. Wish the videos were longer, they go to quick when you enjoy them so much. Look forward to the next one.

    Little Gus. What a sad story and what a wonderful job you have done with him. He must have been mistreated and he is such a sensitive soul. Thank you for sharing your journey with him. ❤

    Patience is a virtue and Time heals all wounds....well maybe not ALL but helps get past the wounds. I am so glad there are people like you out there that are capable all the way around to give auction horses a second, or fifth, chance. Bless you!!!

    I am glad you treated his ulcers first. It takes time for those ulcers, especially the hindgut, to heal. No one wants a belly full of bees. PTSD is real and animals don't often get that taken into consideration when humans are working with them.

      Being conscious in the 21st century is to include a level of Post Traumatic Stress. I used the name absent ‘Disorder’ as some feel to be conscious is to acknowledge PTS as a part of awareness and not necessarily as a disorder.

    Oh wow I cannot believe people criticised you letting huckleberry follow the horse. I don’t have any experience with horses and I could tell the dog was NOT bothering the horse. You nailed the problem and have an excellent eye about what is going on with these horses. Please don’t let negativity change anything you do. You got this lady! I really have learned alot just watching you work these beautiful “cow ponies” 😅 I started watching because my niece lives in montana close to glacier national park and now I’m hooked. 😊 your pics are poster perfect. You could sell them I would buy one. Take care. Be safe and can’t wait till the next video.

    Thank you for sharing Little Gus’s story. His is a story full of hardship and resilience. Thank you for being his safe place. And, for restoring my belief about, at least a few, human beings.
    So many awful things come at the hands of people.
    You give me hope.

    Your efforts with Little Gus are remarkable. He's come a long way. You have a gentle touch and a keen mind, and patience in assessing your horses. The rewards of those qualities are so very obvious. As for Huckleberry's behavior, I was watching more closely in this video and I saw that he really stayed closer to you. I didn't see anything to suggest he was harassing Little Gus. He's no doubt a good dog, and a smart one two.
