- Hi you!
Thank you so much for watching again. In this video you see the beginning of the next steps. Its still searching and getting to know each other and that takes time but will come in little steps. In the next video (I filmed already and will post next week) I will be focussing more on how I usually am/work with horses and we might even put the saddle on??? We really had a moment that clicked so I can't wait to keep going with the progress!
Thank you all for the amazing support and hopefully you stick with us in this journey xx

You are exactly what this beautiful horse needs!! Calm, gentleness, confidence and patience. Thank you Jesse for helping Champ , you are such a caring person and horses can pick that up
Love this comment it is exactly 💯 right Jesse is beautiful inside and out and animals know straight away xx
Watching him he seems as if he thinks he knows best and reacts when you ask for something different, little arrogant I think, baby brain.
I have to be honest I have never seen THIS Jesse, I always saw him as goofy, funny, young boy who LIKES to work with horses, now I see Jesse as a grown man who CAN and KNOW HOW TO work with horses, he loves it, he has love, passion, and patience for it, and far more experience than I do. I am really impressed on how well he is working with horses. I love it, we need more videos like this.
Ditto! He's all of this and more! ❤️
With all his appearances at horse shows, and the bridles, etc. I figured he must be a very knowledgeable and experienced equestrian. But he doesn't show it off so much in all the challenge videos, etc. This was very cool to see!
Well he's a 27 year old man and has his own life, career etc around horses so... :)
It's amazing he can do all this with such large and powerful animals 🎉🙇♂️
This is how most youngsters begin; if they are allowed to do so, they fly solo. In Jesse’s case he has reached heights some of us can only dream about. Most I know find his videos inspirational and magnetic to watch.
You really impressed me by reading the comments on the last video and answering many of our questions, both out loud and by showing us his movement in this session. I'm happy to feel that I'm proven wrong in my theory that he may have a sticky patella (stifle) because now that you have him more relaxed, he steps under equally well on both sides and didn't show any short-stepping. Please always remain humble and always continue to learn as you do now - I feel you may become one of the world's best horse trainers (and human teachers) because you not only notice how the horse is feeling, but you react appropriately AND can communicate that to your viewers, all at the same time. I'm excited to see your work progress with this guy and wish you all the best in everything you do!
I was also impressed with jesse reading the comments, he answered my questions.
Such love an patience. But what moves me the most, is when I see you and the horse look each other in the eye. He is beginning to understand you, he is beginning to trust you. Such inner species communication. Beyond words ... so beautiful.
That was excellent. What this horse needs is an owner who is absolutely cool and calm in himself to give him the security he seeks. Such a wonderful and beautiful boy.
yep
What a difference already, he’s so much calmer and relaxed with you, and learning to trust you. So interesting to watch you work ❤
What a gorgeous horse. He already seems better than he was in the first episode and I can tell that he likes being with you. He is very affectionate and smart; he just strikes me as being a little young and immature (or maybe inexperienced is a better word). I can't wait to see how he progresses through his sessions with you. I like the idea of having the horse communicator lady come out and see him. Because of his high energy, I get the feeling that he might make a good jumper.
Concur that a session with the horse communicator would be beneficial in Champ's training. Appears he wants to connect with you but his past experiences prevent him moving on. Also add that I know nothing about horses, except that a horse's nose is oh, so soft and it's good luck to rub. Jesse, your spirit is genuine and kind.
This beautiful horse is so fortunate to have you working with him
He was a disaster waiting to happen before you started building his confidence up. Good job
I really enjoy watching your calm, consistant energy! I can see why horses respond so well to you! You are great with him! Its fun to watch. :-)
Really interesting video. A tip for you tho. Horses learn from the release of pressure. So for example when you put pressure with the flag he runs the opposite way. That’s his way of creating release. So when you ask him to turn to the inside and he does, I notice that you walk towards him. By walking against him you actually put pressure when you really should give him a bigger release because he listen to what you asked for. So instead try walking away, creating more distance and a bigger release. That way he will be more interested in turning towards you because that takes the pressure away and you are now the release and comfort 🙏🏼
It's so fascinating to see the differences between the freeze reactions/zoning out and actual relaxation in the horse.
That horse is absolutely beautiful 😍 Thanks for helping him loll
Jesse, you can absolutely see it’s working. I watch people who with care and patience gentle wild Mustangs in the US and the good ones who are kind and gentle do A LOT of the same kind of desensitizing. It works wonders to help them trust and feel safe and know that when your around those things aren’t going to hurt them. Pressure with the object until he focuses on it and then release as the reward…that always helps with the focus being on the trainer as well. You are doing amazing with him and I love to watch it.
This is so fascinating, Jesse. (I know nothing about horses …) Your humility, calm, patient presence, and gentle encouragement are just what Champ needs. You are slowly chipping away at his defenses, and he is beginning to trust and love you. He knows you are a friend. Bravo!
Hey, turns out you **do** know a bit about horses after all. 🥰
I would love to see the Horse Psychic work with Champ and Gaio. You have worked wonders with Gaio so far and it would be nice to see if the physic can unlock the last remaining blocks he has from his former life. You are doing wonderful work with Champ.
So beautiful to see him moving toward wanting to connect - you are just what he needs.
What a clear facial expressions this horse has!😄 big plus to this beautiful animal appearance & greatly serves educational purposes - disclosure of emotions helps to understand horse much better😁🙏🏻
Thank you for doing beautiful job🫀
I love this series ♡ and yes, I would totally love to see a psychic come speak with him.
What I pick up from him is that he longs to have more time to just exist and be with his person. Like sitting in the paddock with him and meditating/listening to the wind, being aware of ones breath..
He's curious to find out what kind of presence and enjoyment of the moment is available with humans. He feels like they are too rushed and busy and it stresses him out. He longs to relax and experience deep friendship. He also really enjoys not wearing any gear on his head 😊
He acts like a baby, he’s so big sometimes we find it difficult to remember he may not be experienced. You’re so interesting to watch , I really like how you allow him to be himself and show how he feels. I think you’re going to change this horses life. Keep up the great videos ☺️
Jesse, I had a horse similar to this but much older. He was a bit of a bully at times, disrespectful of my space at times, attacked me once. He could have killed me, but he just came at me and lightly (in horse world) opened his mouth on my arm as he ran by, not closing his mouth. He was angry because I snapped the lead when he was misbehaving. I wasn't having fun anymore. My friend took him and researched his background/training. She found out he was beat with a 2x4 and very mistreated at a young age for halter classes. I wasn't the most powerful, big person like his previous owners and I feel he sensed that. In hindsight I should have understood his mistreatment, but I was somewhat green. I love what you're doing with this big boy. Horses don't need beating and drilling to train them, so I love the newer 'hooking up' gentler way of training. I'm glad you're taking the time for him. Hopefully he'll improve With understanding. Thx Jesse💙
The way in which your training with lunging work is truly remarkable to see. Especially how you weren’t getting after him when he turned his hind end inwards to change directions, I know a lot of trainers get after their horses for that as a “respect thing.” But then the fact that you were still able to guide him and have him follow your afterwards, it was all just very impressive. And initially I was pretty uncertain about if his hind end tension before really was just as anxiety issue like you said, but it certainly seems that you were right. The more calm he got around you, the more and more his problems seemed to disappear. Truly remarkable work Jesse, you should be proud of yourself for sure
You're really doing a fantastic job! The only thing that I've been worried about while watching these videos is that you're not wearing a helmet! This horse does look really kind, but even the nicest horse could get scared and easily miss to spot a person standing in their way (I myself got alot more mindful of wearing safety equipment since I started to study medicine). Stay safe and keep up the good work!
Agree, well said.
Jesse so happy you and the horse found each other. You are so patience and kind. It great to see you starting at the bottom with ground work.
The owner is lucky that you are the one helping her horse..
Het paard begint je leuk te vinden! Leuk. Ik denk dat dit paard mensen grillig, onbetrouwbaar en onvoorspelbaar vindt, ze hebben dingen van hem gevraagd waar hij niet aan kon voldoen en hij kan inderdaad niet anders dan daartegen protesteren, miscommunicatie tussen mens en dier. Ik denk dat jouw aanpak om simpele dingen van hem te vragen en daar heel positief en rustig op te reageren wel heel prettig vindt. Als je dat lang genoeg doet kan hij zich meer en meer ontspannen. En kan er gewoon een ontspannen contact zijn. Dit paard is overvraagd, denk ik. Voor wat het paard zelf aan kon. Goed bezig ik vind het prachtig om te zien hoe liefdevol je met de dieren omgaat.
Hello🙏 I am a big fan from Sri Lanka🇱🇰
I've nearly watched all of your vedios😊 Recently I bought my first horse🐎 these and Matt's videos are very important for me because I learned how to handle horses with love, respect and care fromthem🙏 Thank you very much
I am so impressed with everything you do. I know you've heard it a thousand times before but you are one special young man. I would be interested to see what a horse psychic says about him.
That was wonderful Jesse. You are helping to instil trust rather than a battle for dominance. Just what this stunning horse needs.
Yay! Another video with Champ! So many snuggles. You remind everyone that what matters is relaxation and connection and helping your horse feel better. Can't hear it enough.
This is a lucky horse. I wish we all had someone as patient and understanding like you in our lives Jesse!!
Champ is a really beautiful and friendly horse. The tension is still there at the beginning but after some relaxation exercises, your comforting voice, your calm but assertive approach, Champ's behaviour changes favourably. He is calmer, more relaxed and confident. That's the impression I get when I watch the end of this beautiful video. The game may not be won yet but it seems to be on the right track.
I can't wait to see the third part.
Thank you so much for sharing your excellent method of working. 😍💙
The stick with the grey tape on one end..it looks like a home made Endotapping stick. I can't tell if there is a rubber ball under the tape, but if so it looks exactly like the early prototypes of what came to be the Endostick, for Endotapping, ( JP Giacomini) The stick, fancy or home made, is no matter: the process/concept/technique of using it is what is special. Used as JP teaches, the concept/technique have proven to be a simple and amazing tool. And YOU are AMAZING Jesse Drent!! That horse is lucky to have you in his life. Andorra would agree and approve, I am sure.
Baby steps. You are so patient and calm with him and exactly what he needs. Keep up the good work. He's a wonderful horse who is already showing signs of progress. The dog showing up did put a kink in his tail but you are right, he has to learn how to behave and for that he has to trust the human he is with, that you won't let anything bad happen. It will take time but I already know you have the patience. Well done Jesse.👏👍❤🇺🇸
Love to see him learning with no harness just being free and happy x
Jesse, you are a wonderful and kind human being. Watching you work with horses and your ponies is totally captivating. I'm getting old and I love how life is changing for animals other than ourselves. You are one of the people making things better.
Wish you millions of subscribers because you are a special human. Really
Understand horses.
Jesse, you are such a kind man. The horse is beautiful. I’m sure with time, he will be wonderful. He has improved.
The horse already is wonderful. It's ashame people don't see it
@@1jazzyphae The horse is perfect, but it is dangerous for a rider if it doesn’t know basics, and it kicks when spooked. Nothing not perfect about physicality of horse. Safety safety safety. Jesse is so gentle.
Connecting positively with trust connection, asking yes questions of the horse. Yes only has value when no is an option. from the horses perspective, being seen, being heard feeling felt and getting gotten. It will fast track the trust bond connection and progress with confidence ❤
I also watch Steve Young horsemanship. he’s fantastic
You are probably the most compassionate person I’ve ever seen! Thanks for staying true to you! And thanks for letting us come along for the fun!
Just beautiful to watch. I think Champ is a big puppy, naughty, goofy and playful but needs a lot of guidance and trust and that is exactly what you give him. 👍❤️
Gosh, he is so beautiful! Please send him some of your calm, kind energy to help his soul.
He has a lot of emotions that he is unsure how to express. Jesse did a love lovely job handling it.
Well done Jesse! May i recommennd you read Tom Dorrance, the original horse whisperer. Your calmimg and relaxation approach is beautiful and working. Tom's book, True Unity and True Horsemanship Through Feel, i think you will find lines up with your thinking very much. I was fortunate enough to meet Tom in his later years and watch him work with a couple of horses when he was in a wheelchair. He was incredible with his ability to read a horse. Jesse you're awesome yourself and your approach to Champ. Stay safe. 💙🐎😎
Wow what a massive difference in him, just amazing and enthralling to watch you with him Jesse. The bond is growing, love the way he follows you, you are definitely his safety net. Amazing job and can’t wait for the next video to see how he is. Thank you for helping Champ.
A horse need a confident compassionate leader and its beautiful to watch you Jess using horsmanship at its best 👌
Wow wow wow!! What a big improvement! His face has even changed. He seems a lot calmer. I think he is falling in love with you hehe! You can definitely see he is slowly getting out of that flight or fight response and is starting to think about things. Keep up the good work 🦄
Such a difference in so little time! Proven, gentle and confident horsemanship can change things on a dime sometimes, and other times much longer. Featherlight, Steve Young and Ken Mcnabb are all effective but kind trainers I've learned a lot from just from their videos. Not only have the horses become calmer, more confident and happy to work but I've gotten a better eye and am better at communicating back. It's so important to remember that you can always learn more to benefit you and your horse. Someone who's willing to learn more will always be the better horseman.
Keep going, and keep learning!
Steve Young is AWESOME! I've learned so much from his videos.
Steve Young is amazing, Tristan Tucker and Warwick Schiller are a couple other kind but effective trainers I really like!
Aww he's a lovely horse! I feel sorry for why he's upset, glad your helping him
I just love what you are doing for this horse - I just recently found your channel and am so impressed with your way with horses. I have a very reactive horse very similar to this horse (he is not nearly as talented and athletic as this beauty) so I am really enjoying watching you interact with Champ. I know you will form a wonderful connection with him - I can see it starting already. I would love to see what tricks you are going to teach him. Thank you for being such a bright light within the horse world - I appreciate you!!!
Such a stunning horse! Love how soft and so sweet he is in the end with you.
No wonder he responds to you Jessie. Your calm ways and soft mesmerizing voice bring him peace. It’s amazing to watch the progress.
Jesse, what a fascinating challenge! And talk about a gorgeous mover❣️ just wow!
What is so interesting to me is that this horse is kind of fighting with himself. He doesn’t really want to be nervous. At the same time. He doesn’t know how not to be nervous. And that’s where you come in.
You can see the trust building in Champ. He is definitely beginning to like you, and he seemed more relaxed. Terrific video!
YES! You working with this beautiful horse is working!! Your love,kindness and patience is coming through to him! Jesse,you truly are AWESOME and AMAZING!! xoxo
He's a beautiful horse! You're so calm with him it's amazing to watch him react.
Oh Jesse I'm so glad you came to help with this horse. In this video you can tell he accepts you and likes you. He trusts you as well which is the greatest of all. Thank you for helping his owner. You are so awesome! He needs you as well as his owner needs you! Thank you again!
I felt like I was watching The Black Stallion being wild but still trying to connect. Amazing work with an amazing horse, Jesse! 🖤
You're doing amazing with this beautiful boy. This behavior happens with a confused, anxious horse that's scared of his own shadow. It was an excellent decision to have you work with him. Clear, calm direction and patience are what he needs to keep improving.
You have just the right touch, Jesse! You can see this horse relaxing around you to start with, in his mouth. He is moving it and ‘chewing’. No tension there. Lucky horse to have you for a trainer. 😊❤🤗. He handles the dog barking well, which I think is also because of your calm presence. See how much I have learned? I don’t know if I will ever be around horses again in my lifetime, but it’s nice to learn things anyway. 👍
Love how you ask the horse what he wants to do. You're brilliant.
I knew if any one could, it would be you Jesse. You have made a huge difference already. Watching this time, I also think he is just talking horse and letting you know that something just happened that he did not care for, or how it was done, or is unsure. You called that right off. GREAT JOB!! 👍
I just want to say I absolutely love watching your videos, you have such a positive way of thinking and it reminds me a lot of when I was younger and used to ride all the time :) I haven't ridden properly in years due to money and time issues but your videos more than make up for it and give me that feeling of being around horses again! Thank you Jesse
So enjoying this journey. What a privilege it is to watch you work with this magnificent sensitive horse . Thank you
The key is to keep the human entertained! As long as you're enjoying the session, you'll be patient and the horse will enjoy too. In my experience
Hi Jesse , I would try to get him walk over poles and later possibly cavaletti. He then has to think and therefore you have a good chance that he will relax even more….. good luck!
He really is like a big puppy! Time and patience will go a long way in bringing him into his own and finding his confidence. Lovely to watch how he calms down and let's you in 🥰
I love to watch your body language, Jesse. I don't know if you do this by instinct or by training, but it's fascinating to see! Everything from the angle of your head to the rhythm of your steps seems geared to gaining trust and speaking clearly. It's really great!
Goedzo Jesse and that would be awesome to have the horse communicator translate what he's feeling and thinking 💙
I love how you work with him. I love that you give him a chance to come to terms with what you are teaching.
Excellent work Jesse! Yes, I'd enjoy watching Champ being playful with you and doing tricks. Please protect your head. ♥
There is a definite improvement which is lovely to see. If you haven't already done so, it is worth having a look a Steve Young Horsemanship. He helps tricky horses and you heading in the same direction as him which is fantastic x
Agreed. Steve Young is excellent. Years of wisdom in his head. Very talented.
I'm expecting that there will be a movie about Jesse and his life with the horses one day. I know I would watch it over and over again. I work with dogs and I find his way of handling all animals very inspiring.
You can already see such a difference! He is such a stunning horse - black beauty. I am sure you will work out a way for him to calm down and to communicate in a much better way without that much frustration. And that would make things for the owner so much easier, too!
Exploding horses with frustration can be really dangerous. Really looking forward to see more from the progress!
Hi Jesse, this boy reminds me of my little Inca! Super reactive, super intelligent and super expressive! My little Inca is only 14'2 hands, but has the expressiveness of a 17 hand horse. My Inca can go from 0 to 100 in reactivity in a milli - second! If Inca losses his balance on the lunge, for example, he is literally all 4 legs in the air and I just have to wait for him to get back in his headspace to listen again! Inca has also been known on more than one occassion, to run as fast as he can, and fall over on the lunge, and I just shake my head. I just stand there and shake my head as Inca is very expressive, very playful and super athletic. I've had to take a step and reassess Inca's training as he literally questions "why am I lunging 20 metre cirlces at a walk, trot and canter...?"
I've had him out to a dressage day (only a walk / trot test after 5 weeks of prep), the first test we came 3rd......and the 2nd test was a complete disaster as Inca was bored trotting 20 metre circles so he threw in leap frog bucks and jumps and I was saying to him...."....what are you doing....?". Inca was like...."I'm spicing things up mum...!!!!".......and I just shook my head, knowing full well that Inca was telling me he doesn't have the mindset for dressage!
I've taken him to an in-hand mountain trail / obstacle course and he was perfect! I've taken him to a cow event (ranch sorting) and he was onto the cows within seconds!
I've figured out with Inca that I need to keep his mind busy and active with something literally within 1 metre of his nose ie, obstacles and when I get a new yard built, I'll be focusing on clicker training. Inca is different to my other 2 horses as he is super inquisitive and will pick up a bottle of water in his mouth, for example, if the farrier puts it within his reach.
I've had a psychic read Inca, and everything I've realised about Inca, the psychic identified.
You mentioned at the end of this clip that you would like to teach this horse some tricks - maybe take a step back from the lunge work and focus on some trick training.
This horse of yours is so much like my Inca and sometimes these horses come along to shake things up and to educate us to think outside the square a little.
And yes, absolutely have the psychic to this lovely gelding of yours.
I'm an Dip. Equine Acupuncturist and work with energies and meridians. Acupuncture would be super beneficial for this horse as it will aid in balancing out excess and deficiences, etc.
Looking forwards to keeping up with the progress xx
hey Jesse, first of all I really really love your videos and your approach to training horses. I think the method of sensitizing you're using with him works really well with many many horses. However I think with a reactive and anxious horse like him, a different approach might work a little better. Let me explain: What you're doing right now, is basically confronting him with the scary object and rewarding him by taking it away once he calms down. But in his case, he already seems agitated and he has a very low tolerance, so we never really see him relax.
So what I recommend is this: Basically give him more control over his comfort zone. Try to give him more time and show him that you actually see his discomfort. So for example you have the flag in your hand and you watch his body language very carefully, as you move the flag closer. when you see a minimal reaction, like him lifting his head, you stop immediately, wait until he's relaxed and try again - always staying under his threshold. you will notice that he will allow you to do more and more, because he will realize that you understand him and he will feel safer. You can even start trying this when he's out in the field and you approach him, walk towards him and stop as soon as he reacts in a stressed way. Showing a horse that you see him is the biggest gift you can make him, many horses are just anxious because they constantly feel unseen.
Warwick Schiller did an amazing video on this with a horse that doesn't like being caught, he gets it used to his touch in a really short time.
The video is called: "The Principles of Training Season 3 Episode 8: Catching a Hard to Catch Horse" I really recommend it!
Again, I really don't mean this in a bad way at all, I just wanted to share this because I really love your content and want you to succeed!
Yes Jesse, he's much better this time ... he's able to disengage his hind legs, for both eyes. As all good horse trainers know, you have to do the same on one side as the other. People generally tend to do most things on the left side and that's why the right side tends not to be as supple.
Horses naturally want to be led and it's pretty much about controlling their feet. Once you're successful at that, then you'll have the horse's respect. They'll look at you as a leader, rather than fight you for every step. It's absolutely no different than the dynamics of a wild herd ... that's exactly how the stallion, or more typically, the alpha mare, keeps the herd in check.
Your techniques for doing the ground work are spot on to what world famous horse trainers practice ... it's not a trade secret ... it's that horses are wired (brain and nervous system) the same way regardless of the size, the breed or the timeline ... it's "fight or flight" and that's pure genetics. It's obvious this horse was acting on the former and that's when it can become seriously dangerous. Luckily it's never not too late to make positive changes, in his attitude (with the exception of extreme cases of abuse). He'll be a much happier horse for it ... and so will his owner.
I do hope your teaching his owner to do exactly what you're doing, so he'll come to see her as a leader too. It's not an instant change over night but with repetition of these techniques, it will allow him to be a more balanced horse.
I think he may have grown up learning to be disrespectful ... perhaps nobody took the time to do the necessary ground work, and thus, in his mind nobody was a worthy leader.
But you've had a breakthrough with him ... brilliant! I've been watching Steve Young's Horsemanship and what you're doing is exactly what he teaches ... and what he was taught to do many years ago, under guise of some world famous horse trainers ... i.e., Brannaman and Parelli, etc.
I think it's sweet and awesome how you're helping your friend, with focussing on the ground work so she'll be able to enjoy her horse. She'll be a lot happier as he, as he'll have a leader.
Brilliant video Jesse ... you demonstrate time and time again of being such a loving, caring and knowledgeable horseman. As Steve Young says "do it with quality" ... and that's evident in your demeanour and techniques/skills.
Your friend must be really happy with the progress!?! 😁
Jesse, I have lived and worked with horses in the UK for 40yrs. If he is a "problem", though there is no such thing! Have you tried this old, old horse trick? If you have an old paper bag, or an empty plastic sweet bag (like an old skittles one), hold it in 1 hand as you approach him, and crackle the bag in your hand. He will want to find out what it is, so will be eager and mentally switched on to you. When he comes to nuzzle that hand, reward him with a bit of apple or carrot.
Then while on the lunge rein, do the bag trick again without warning, and when he comes to your hand again, same reward. Eventually he will click his brain into trusting this new human, and focus his interest on you and get less frustrated or nervous, as you mean interest, treats, physically and mentally forward movement that is fun, not flight. Best of luck.
It's worked for me for 40yrs.
Wow, that change between your first and second session is really amazing! Way to go, Jesse! It really seems like he's just very insecure and unshure and therefore throws these temper tantrums. He really seems to enjoy your calm and confident guidance to give him a stable framework to exist in and figure things out. He will be an amazing horse with a few weeks/months of training with you. Maybe check his makros / blood levels, this extreme itchiness can come from a lack of some minerals. Or it may be an eczema.
Champ is looking a lot better, you and i assume there are other people helping him are doing such a fantastic job. I always look forward to your videos, instagram posts and stories it always makes me smile.
I can’t love this video enough, such a quiet and patient horseman. Love the way you work with horses ❤
Trt method, Jesse. Tristan Tucker is an amazing horseman. I notice that this horse is having trouble reading your intention. When he blows up with you follow him with the stimulous until he stops then take it away and relax. It takes a little bit. Teach him to back up so he can focus on you. I can also recommend Ryan Rose Horsemanship here in America. If at all possible work him in a smaller area(round pen)
Jesse, I'm waaay older than you and I've been learning Horsemanship my whole life and still learning! It never really ends because every horse brings something different. The owner is going to have to learn the tools also so she can handle him. Otherwise, its pointless!
Good luck and looking forward to more videos.
Hugs from USA
couldn't click faster when i saw this!! so invested in your journey with him xxx
He's a beauty. He'll eventually respond to your sweet spirit and gentle way Jesse. That's the best way to train!
That could be your next show horse, Jesse! For real. Train his eyes more to be alert ⚠️ and not too reactive, he is active with his ears and body but he need more desensitization when he see a threat and not just sense it. When he saw the dog, it was really intresting bc it could've looked like play and could've also escalated into a chase or him harming the dog out of protecting his space using his big form to chase away danger, which says a lot about his personality. I think he is very protective of his loved ones, himself and his space. I like that he has a very big personality, you can see the shift in him when he understands what's expected of him, that he calms down and act a bit older for a moment He is very mouthy just like a baby 👶🏻 wanting to taste everything and anything out of sheer curiosity, for him it can easily turn into boredom. He seem very intelligent and need a rider that challenge him. I love this, your calm way, letting him correct himself and think, being firm but kind! Nice work! 👏👏👏
Amazing how much more relaxed he is already.
He is so gorgeous. Such nice coat condition and a good weight. It is very obvious that his owner gives him the best care.
He's a beautiful mover. Your a natural at training. So kind and respectful of the animal.
What a difference from the first video! I love watching the way you work with the horses, you have so much patience and respect for them.
Jesse, I have no doubt that you will do him a great service. I am very excited about the progress.
He is such a good and kind soul. Actually, both of you are. Keep on, this is so precious.
You’re horsemanship is fantastic Jesse!
He’s looking great! It might be helpful to implement a little positive reinforcement to help avoid the frustrated moments and reaffirm what the right answers are. Just a suggestion ☺️
That beautiful horse is so lucky you found him. You both will be happy. ❤
We should all be more like you
Youre calming me down
Thank you
God bless you🤍
He is so beautiful!!
and he completely trusted, because he was looking for a friend like JESSE, he just lacked such attention, and this boy really likes to work.
great work. progress is obvious. good luck in the next steps!!
Really appreciate your gentle manner of training horses. Always enjoy yours and Matt's channels,but my favorite channel is Steve Young Horsemanship. He is a very caring and kind person who has a really quiet way with horses. He shares so many good tips,and trains without treats,other than using a salt lick. I notice that he rarely ever pats horses,but touches them gently. A very interesting tip I recently learned from him,was how to put a saddle pad on the correct way. It made perfect sense,that it should not go against the horses coat as hairs might be sticking in and uncomfortable under weight of rider and saddle. Keep up the good work Jesse.
He is much more sensitive on the off side. This is of course understandable, as most people do not work on both sides equally. I am glad to see you taking it easy, yet still trying on both sides.
Like this series. Good to learn how to work with horses that have issues.
I love this series. The techniques you're using remind me of Steve Young horsemanship. About press and release. Foot work etc.
Doing great, you two! His outbursts are getting much more predictable because he is understanding things that are being asked of him, instead of just blowing up at everything because he doesn’t understand at all. Well done.
