- Hobble breaking a horse is a very good tool for any horsemen. Unfortunately, it is not as prevalent today as it was in days going by. In this video, we hobble break Mouse (the horse formerly known as “Cody”). I apologize for the vertical format of this video, but that’s how it was accidentally recorded and so that’s how we posted it. There was some good info on here and so we decided to go ahead and publish it.

Listen up yall who watch. This man has wisdom, patience, and experience. He knows what he talks about and better still he can tell it like it is. Do yourself a favor and subscribe, listen, and learn. I can shamelessly plug Dewayne because I can attest to his wisdom. I don't care what anyone thinks, this man knows what's up. Blessing to you Dewayne.
May the Lord bless you and keep you, may His face shine on you.
Hes a real steady Eddie, not even fighting to get loose. Make a great trail horse 🐎 ❤
Trust...fight or flight...horses are herd animals and instinctively run from danger (real or perceived). To take willingly to hobbles is such a sign of trust. Really appreciate your approach to tapping into the mind of the horse; and each horse individually.
Loved your comment about them learning to run in hobbles. Twenty years ago we were on a week long ride and hobbled our horses at night to let them graze. My horse who was an old ranch horse who had no problems with hobbles, led the horses on a run through our camp one night. After that we high lined them when we turned in for the night to keep from getting trampled.
I've had a few of those and still do lol. Hobbles are great for short term standing but I highline at night to avoid being trampled lol
Outstanding video, Dewayne!
Another great video. I missed this one 3 weeks ago. Like the new horse. Like that logic and instinct example.Good session Thanks!
Great video, I'm learning so much about horses and Dewayne is the best teacher of wrangling, and also of life in general. Love you guys keep up the awesome work!
Great video, beautiful horse. Thanks
Wonderful demonstration. Thank you sir! I learn a lot from ur videos!
Good information. I have always been interested in hobble training but have never done it with any of my horses. I definitely know it can be extremely beneficial to have a horse broke to hobble.
On another note, I hope that you and yours are doing well Dewayne since we haven’t seen a video in a while. Hopefully y’all are just busy with school. Take care.
Hes gorgeous ❤❤❤ Must be my old eyes, his colors look different in different videos, thanks for telling me hes a grulla. After decades buckskins dun and grullas still confuse me 😅😅😅They are all beautiful though. I love all colors paint pintos palomino buckskin chesnut sorrels bays roans whatever, love them all ❤❤❤
So many people don't understand the use of hobbles and yes they can learn to run in them especially mules
I've got 2 horses that have learned to move pretty quick even with 3 leg hobbles lol.
Excellent video.... 🌼
Howdy Dwayne, from Oklahoma!! I got my first horse about a year ago at 22 years old. I started out learning from Clinton Anderson, but I feel that watching your videos have taught me so much about horsemanship and being a good partner with your animal. I really appreciate all of the knowledge you share. I’m not sure if you’ve already done a video over saddle fitting, maybe I missed it. If not though, I would like to know how you go about making sure a saddle is a good fit on your horse. Thank you in advance!
Great video
When I hobble train I use a second lead line because it's softer than a lariat. I start 1 foot at a time like you but before I move to the hobble, I take the lead line and wrap (don't tie) a figure 8 from pastern to pastern with the loose ends of the line in my hand. That way if the horse freaks out I can just drop the second lead line and the hobble comes undone and I still have the lead line on the halter in my hand. Just an extra safety measure and I can calm the horse down much faster if something goes wrong and then we can get right back to training.
I never knew that grulla meant mouse in Spanish, very nice name for him .
Dwayne! ;Thanks for great video. definitely like Mouses new name, like you said to go with grulla color. Enjoyed your approach, I never really hobble broke one, but had, on a few occasions;: used a soft cotton rope, looped on one leg& flip loop around òther for brief time. Wish I'd have been as diligent on mind teaching as you did. Oh, what cigar were lighting up?? Thanks again for sharing this.
Can you do a video of tour your horse trailer? What you carry, how to organize, etc. Thanks
Hobble training can save a horse's life, in the event that they ever become stuck in wire or fence panels, etc..
Truth! Had 1 get his foot hung in a metal bull gate at night. He was standing there next morning and I shoved his foot out. Hasn't been for hobble training he would've broken his leg.
also its useful for the farrier
I saw a horse in the background that was brown it was like I was like oh my God there’s a horse in the background
Mouse that's a heck of a name 😁🐝👍
Cause he's so small lol
Dwayne do you ever High Line your horses in camp. And any specific wisdom on doing that?
Whats your take on someone outside of the US trying to get into ranching or working for a dude ranch,.. could you do a video on that ? What problems you might face coming over.. where you need to start off etc..
Hope all is well, havent seen any content for awhile
All is well, just been really busy with the school. Plan to get back on soon.
Very interesting as usual Dewayne. Does the cigar smoke ever bother a horse? Shouldn't really be blowing there way much I'd imagine.
I have never had any horse give the least indication of being bothered in anyway by the cigar.
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool As a fellow cigar smoker, I've never been near horses when I indulge, unfortunately. Thanks...
When I bought my 10 year old thourobred I kept his name Shane, I thought after being his name for 10 years it would confuse him to change it, So you can change they're names and they will get used to it???
DeWayne, at what age/training level do you begin to hobble a horse? What are you looking for in a horse for that you want to start hobbling? Thanks.
There is not really a set age that I look at, but I more consider the mental and emotional maturity of the horse. They need to be used to having their feet handled, and they need to be fairly levelheaded. I have found that I have more success when I hobble train a horse that has already been pretty solid under saddle and pretty light in the bit. I suppose that is because by that time they are used to me introducing new things to them, and they have a mindset of listening to me and trusting me when it comes to the unusual. I suppose everyone is different, but that’s kind of the approach that I take.
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool Thanks for your reply. Good stuff.
Just curious, what is your issue with Parelli? I have watched a few of his videos and it looks like he does some good stuff.
His methods have really improved horse training in general from what I can tell. Maybe. Not practical for a wrangler but seems for pleasure riders it looks good. How many people are really going to become full time wranglers?
Perelli has good horsemanship, and has helped a lot of people. I just got kind of turned off on a personal level by all of the salesmanship and gimmicks sold, but I don’t discourage people from following him
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool
I get that. Most people are all about the almighty dollar. I hope we never see Dry Creek Wrangler cigars for sale😉
Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦
its been 2 weeks since youve done a video. are you all right? is your wife all right? are you still in the school business, dwayne your leaving your subscribers in the dark ive watched you were in texas and love your videos, coffee cigars all of it 😂 come back pleses
We’re doing well, just finishing up the last week of school and it has been insanely busy here. But we recorded a video today and it should be posted in the next day or two and we are about to the point we can start putting more content back out on a regular basis
If that is a black walnut tree, that is the reason they don't like the grass. It's poisoned.
That horse needs a cigar
I own 2 , 155 lbs Cane Corsos and i trained them with no treats or rewards! Their treat and reward is a good bone or some nice steak! I need them to do what i ask not expecting anything! They are guardian dog! Their job is in the blood for thousands of years! Let's go Brandon
That's why you need to do your training in a pen or arena where there's no grass so the horse can concentrate on you and not in a big bowl of food which is grass.
And then if you have to train a horse out where there is no pen or arena, what do you do? I prefer to teach the horse to pay attention to me regardless of the environment or the circumstances. There’s not a right way or wrong way, but this is my way.
Horse should pay attention no matter whats surrounding him . U got the wrong mentality for training anything friend .. horses , children , employees anything .
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool yep I don't have a round pen just a field
I can't hear the questions if you could repeat the question then the answer it would help us viewers please
He’s really not thrilled about this training exercise. Haha
If he's eating, he's not focused on you & on what you're teaching.
Exactly
That might be bad for him if there are mountain lions or wolves or bears 😮😮😮 he would not be able to run 😮😮😮 Then what???
Don’t listen to anyone who kicks a horses the way he did.
I didn’t kick that horse. If you go back and watch the video, actually watch the video before you comment, you’ll see I never touched a horse it was too far for me to reach down there with my hand so I made a motion towards a horse that caused the horse to lift its head. Don’t ever listen to anyone who will comment on a video without actually watching the video.
