    I seen in person and watched several horse trainers on CZcams, and by far your the most calm and best trainer I’ve seen. That’s for teaching us so much

    My goodness, that colt has so much potential, and is such a quick learner, he’ll be fun to train. Thanks for another informative video.

    Well done, Ryan. This is a great demonstration of why the foundational stuff is so key. And I love the way you put it: "taming." A lot of people go right into the training and then run into problems, because the foundational stuff, the taming, wasn't done or complete. Even as seasoned trainers, we are often still humbly reminded to go back or not to skip!! :)

    Hi Ryan, I have been using horses for mustering on our cattle stations for about sixty-five years now. I enjoy watching you work with the horses that have man made problems . I have never had many issues, I probably have nipped them in the butt early. Cheers John.

    A fan from South Africa here. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I am green to horse riding. Been only 2 months. But I learn with every video I watch. I am riding a horse that is used to a saddle (outrides). But started to ride him on his own. He is a different horse on his own. VERY alert, and probably a little scared too. So I am taking it very easy and slow. Allowing him to make mistakes.
    I also took him to the round arena (for the first time I believe) last weekend, to challenge him with puzzles like you say. I believe our bond will grow stronger with time and that he will trust me as a leader and friend.

    Love this one. Nice to see how Opie is learning from Gus as well!
    Could you possibly do a video on leg cues?
    I have been riding for about a year and half, and I am just starting to learn to rope. Recently I've been to busy for lessons, so I am on a short break and trying to learn and notice Western leg cues in videos.

    I had a new horse who I didn't know much about, I figured he could be green but I hadn't done much with him yet. The first week he was here was heavy rain, so I put a canvas rug with neck piece on him as he was out in the paddock with another horse. In the morning, I could see from the kitchen window he was standing without a rug, head down, in the middle of the paddock. When I got out there I saw that during the night his rug had ripped and was now only still attached to him by the 3 neck straps, and was hanging down beside his head covered in mud and soaked... he couldn't lift his head or walk without treading on it and pulling his head down more. Anyways, he stood there calm as can be, waiting until I got it off, then he just walked away. So that's when I knew he was pretty "tame" to steady pressure. :)

    Late to the party but just had to say what a cool looking dude Gus is. I have a little bit of experience with horses that cropped out, having had the pleasure of owning a few Gunsmokes… but Gus’s paint is lovely. Without looking it all up - and for me it was all a longish time ago now - does that white cross his spine and make him an overo? In any case, he’s a grand horse, and so good with the baby. Very nice.

    This video is very thought productive. I can see criticizing comments coming your way. But I found a lot of ‘fruit’ in this video and thank you for posting. Will be buck with saddle. I think not. I think you prep him well but it all depends on which horse will show up for that exercise.

    I bought a lariat rope, but I haven't had much occasion to use it yet. I cannot wait to start another young horse with this added tool. Definitely need to practice my rope handling with some more broke horses though! I think it will be good for them. 😋

    Another thing that you can do with a colt that is bothered about a rider on the saddle horse is use the saddle horse to hug the colt. They can get used to all the gear touching them and pressure of the saddle horse on their backs.

    Interesting how he didn't react too much to the flank rope. Huh.

    • @ryanrosehorsemanship
      @ryanrosehorsemanship  Před rokem +4

      Agreed but I would credit that to him understanding steady pressure better from ponying and the lariat rope therapy. This session ended up being pivotal for him.

    • @DoubleDogDare54
      @DoubleDogDare54 Před rokem +1

      You wait until they are 3 or 4 and they start getting used to doing nothing and doing nothing their own way. They are more apt to resist training if you let them "mature" first because they have that memory bank full of doing nothing they don't want to do. When they are 2yos they are more flexible about being trained because they really don't know any different. So they accept it easier. Not unlike training a kid. Start them young with chores and responsibilities and they don't know any different. Wait until they are 15? Yeah - that's asking for trouble.

    I want to see when the horse actually bucked. Too many of Ryan's videos look like click bait when we are only shown such a tame, quiet horse. Makes me hesitate to watch and is one reason I don't want to pay for the content. Once tricked, twice shy.

  • @emmawillard1832
    @emmawillard1832 Před rokem

    The horse has to "solve the puzzle." That is exactly what this method does: it forces a horse to mind read and guess and guess and guess. And for every guess which is not what the human had in mind, i.e., the horse "gets it wrong," the horse is punished.
    The horse is not taught -- as in educated and shown and confirmed in the aids which ask for his cooperation in a particular way -- what is wanted. He is punished for being a failure at reading the human mind.
    No one involved in education would ever promote this method for use with children.
