- i have been breaking horses, for over 30 years without stressing the horses. the horses have been my best teacher. i specailize in breaking horses and training all horses without stress. if you are not a trainer please dont try this alone, it may look easy, know how is the key. alot may go wrong, if you dont know what you are doing. if you dont know how, get a respected trainer, that has proved to know what he is doing. the horse tells all! you see the horse, you see the trainer!

i'm a horse behaviourist and trainer. It's lovely to see someone else who truly loves and respects these animals as individuals, not just as sports equipment. I always say to clients. If you don't respect your horse, Your horse wont respect you. you have to work together as a team. once you can do that, honestly you can do anything you want together.
thank you
Very true, thank you
As a horse behaviourist this video should hurt you to watch but here you are praising the guy? Can i ask what your business name is?
@@Minxie5 As a horse behaviorist, it's important to remember the client. I would love to live in a world where horses just roam free. But that's unfortunately not reality. This man done everything right and respectfully when trying to break this horse in. The horse also showed no signs of discomfort or agitation. So, before jumping to conclusions on a youtube video, perhaps you should do your research. Or even better, train to be a horse behaviorist yourself.
Nightingale song. I am honey hence how I know your not. I asked for your business name please?
"You cant trick a horse, he k ows your spirit"....is what most ppl overlook ...agreed my guy
Yep
The way you talk about horses is beautiful you treat them with respect, also don't listen to any of the hate comments there are always going to be people out there that say you are wrong or something it wrong. What matters is what works for you, some people need to take different steps with the horses and some don't.
Thank you
this guy has balls to be behind the horse like that. That might be dangerous
No i just know what im doing. Nothing is done by accident. Over 45 years of professional training
You are not breaking a horse, you are starting a horse. Big difference.
very nice. alot of trust here, your very calm and gentle. I hate seeing 'trainers' with whips that force the horse to do as they say. it's about asking them and taking your time with them. thankyou !
thank you
Horses&More there is no trust here he's tied up so he has no choice you can't gain trust in life 6 minutes
Horses&M
ore
Aint nothing wrong with a wip here and there when they act up
You do realise the horse is double tied? does this horse look comfortable around this guy? No! You can see that within 2 mins of the video
someone's always going to have a "better" way of doing something, you know how it goes in this community. keep doing great work, don't listen to these keyboard cowboys
@Melanie Willard teach me your ways
@Melanie Willard Same and would never put a saddle on a horse for the first time tied up ! Hell i don't have to tie my horses for anything but would never tie for first saddling. His words say one thing but his persona says another
@Melanie Willard I am PNH also.
It's wonderful to see the care you put into him. That's love if ever I've seen it.
Thank you
I don’t know why this brings tears to my eyes. The guy is doing a good job.
The only thing about your method I would argue with is using a bit the first time you ride. By doing that you create a bad experience right off the bat and starting a horse that way is where I usually see owners who have horses that run away when the saddle comes out. Desensitizing over time also tends to yield a calmer horse rather than a short tied horse that's desensitized in 10-20 minutes. You can force a horse to do anything, but gaining trust and friendship tends to work better in the shortrun and the longrun
I learned to ride on Arabians, there was a big Arabian farm up the street, I would help out around the stables in exchange for lessons. I was only about 12. They are such beautiful majestic horses.
So true. I only own arabs , they truly are an amazing breed and when trained correctly will give you their heart and soul and are just so much fun
My mom said I need a job (I’m 13) so I found stables that would exchange my working for lessons. My mom said no and I told her that I can cover all the costs of basic riding gear (and no she’s not afraid of me riding a horse) she then carries of to say how “the stables are too far away” and I told her they’re only 10-15 minutes max away, keep in mind my sisters job is 20 minutes away and my mom drives her there even though she’s old enough to get her license . If anybody could help that would be great, ty :)
Oops I didn’t mean to reply to your comment lol
This is helpful thank you I have a year and a half year old horse that I’m trying to train that has never been worked with thank you!
Helpful in , it has taught you what not to do
Your an Awesome guy. I'm an animal lover and I can see the connection there and respect there. You even have a calming affect on me.
Thank you
@@alvinboudyjr1967 I agree like I couldn't help but feel relaxed listening to your voice You seem like a really cool person
@@Splintz246 thank you very much
I love the way you show people decency and partner ship with the horse. You are a little big for the horse but as you said he is 3 so he has growing to do
you mister are amazing :) thank you for these lessons :)
Thank you
Thankyou so much for the tips because my Grandpa has a farm and he used to have a horse that we can ride but she died her name was Lacie she was probably the most sweet and gentle horse I had ever met in my life, I loved her. Now my Grandpa has two horses one that is too old for people to ride him and one that is 5 and needs to be broken his name is Rusty and I am going to my Grandpa's house soon so that I can break him and I tried to ride him once but he was too scared and jumpy so we had to stop so thankyou so much for this video it is very helpful.
is he dusty or am i crazy
It's just his color
+Terri Smith. Then why is stuff flying off him
It's dirt.
dusty dusty,
He said he has never done anything to the horse so yeah he is gonna be dusty 😂
Great video . I assume you have done some ground work with the horse earlier ? Is there a video on that ?
I like the videos. U r a artist with horses
Ok random question : how do you get a saddle correctly fitted if you can’t put it on him yet ??
Beautiful creation wow
thanks a lot i really appreciate it
wow wow. amazing.
did you ever do join up i feel like that would be the first step i’m just trying to learn more because i’m still a kid but i want this to be my job
I do not believe that this is the first time this horse has been handled or that he has just been sitting in a pasture. Usually the first time you would bring a horse up you wouldn't put a bridal and bit on. And you usually wouldn't put a saddle on either. Just my opinion.
i would also ask why he has bridals and bits on the horses that are stalled ??
it is the firt time. no need to lie just because you cant do it , dosent mean someone else cant
I hope to learn more about horses they are dangerous but rewarding animals
+JornsHD haha I'm not a teacher go look it up
+JornsHD , come on , lets be ladies, and be nice please!
+Smoked Because they can weigh over half a ton, they're fast, they're a prey animal so they spook easier than, say, a dog. People get kicked, bitten, thrown, etc by horses, and a scared or upset horse can do a lot of damage to a person. Now, you can, of course, train those behaviors out. But, they aren't born knowing how to be gentle enough for a person to not be injured working with them.
Great video!
P.S. GREAT video!!!!
love your videos i hope to be as good as a horseman as you are one day in good time. Do you tie quick release style? If he really freaked would you cut him loose?
you willl be
The horse is double tied - ain't no quick release . He hasn't answered your question I am guessing because he doesn't know what quick release is. Poor horse
Nice....90% is the bridle, bit and halter..no lolling..no mouth discomfort but I think she's had a lot of ground work before the saddeling...just saying..awesome way..no stress
Def. Had ground work, calm horse, not a wild one.
To Alvin.
Ive always bribed the horse with food before they let me them tied down. How did you get him to let you put him on the post before he trusts you?
If you know how to communicate with the the horse show love and patience, then the horse will start to trust a person. You must have a pure spirt, the horse can scan a person and know who you are a soon as you meet a horse. A person can not fool animals, they know who you are.
I think he needs to not take the blanket off until the horse calms down. Every time the horse freaked out he took the blanket off. Thats teaching the horse that freaking out will get it what it wants. It needs to learn that when it calms down the blanket will be taken off.
Angela Tonn agreed, but then again there’s no such thing as a perfect trainer
@@sojournerrose7787 Very true, when it comes to horses, we will be learning forever
I dont know anything about horses, is that a normal amount of dust to come out when you brush one?
Quintin Clark yes
Quintin Clark they are dusty animals and have fur that captures a lot of dust
Even my dog gets dusty! Even your furniture!
Quintin Clark only when dirty
From what I understand to protect themselves from insects they like to roll around in big dust clouds as well as mud so they can get pretty dirty
Well done!
thank you
Thank you
Back leg is not in relaxed position..horse is tense. When they rest a hind leg in relaxation its different. It may look similar to some but they are two completely different...opposite in fact. Also a youngster learning about saddle, pad etc still at the stage where they are moving around and looking back at the unfamiliar would never suddenly rest a hind leg in relaxation in the middle of the process. Doesn't make sense and is not an accurate interpretation. Is he cruel?... No. Is he amazing at reading horses body language?.... No.
and what are you qualifications for this
right! I was just sitting there in shock at that comment like what would ever make him think that lmao
Can you make a video on it?
@Melanie Willard when i frist broke my first horse i needed to brake i wasnt aware i needed to wait on the bit but now ive learned that since then but luckfully she is almost amazing just a few things to work on. But theres always something to work on
Oh my lord. He is so Beautiful
That is a beautiful horse i have ridden an Arabian stallion
Do you lunge the horse in the training process?
What do you do if they have been with another horse for a while and goes crazy when you take one out and leave the other horse in?
Slowly progress towards them getting longer distances away
that flash noseband seemed tight... no hate aha enjoyed the vid
Wish I could use you when I rescue a horse
It may seem a counterintuitive question to ask from looking at this video, but how can you know the horse isn't going to kick you when you walk behind him? To me it seems that their most obvious weapon would be their hind legs, and you can tell from certain parts of this video that they weren't super comfortable. Why didn't they grasp the chance to take you out as you wandered around them so close to striking range? I didn't want to see you get hurt or anything, just sorta wondering if there is an explanation for it.
Also anyone ever told you that you look, and sound like, Jared Gomes from from "(Hed) P.E."? I think it's so fitting too, because one of their most popular songs is "Let's Ride". Horse also farted to the breakdown of the bassline. It's totally an omen from the gods.
Hello Mr Boudy Love your work! I was just curious as to what you have for weight in "mr legs" and how much weight it should be?
Jennifer Pue thank you. much, about 10 pounds in each leg. you can even put some old boots on it. thats what i will do . im working on making mr. legs better - best wishes boudy jr.
Should name him dusty from all the dust that’s come off him from first handling
Are you not worried that he will kick you when you walk around the back of him?
What if if it won't let you put him on a rope
do you think it's better to buy a yearling or a 'made' horse? I'v never had my own and currently share a horse which I ride and take care of 2/3 days a week, im thinking about buying a yearling so I have 3 years to build trust before breaking it - is this achievable/a good idea for a 'first time owner'
+Katie V get a made horse its better. and find a good trainer, that works with horses with out stress.
If you want to build trust before puting the saddle ln, you can get a 3 year old, you can build trust in a few months and then put the saddle on
I know this is an old thread, but if you know a lot about horses, buying younger can be alright, i know I bought my girl right after she was weaned and she's an absolute gem (and unheard of calm for a year and half old Arabian). Be aware of the work involved with a younger horse if you go/went for a younger horse. The rule for inexperience is: Old horses for young rangers, green on green makes black and blue
Shit we can brake a horse in a week if we want tbh and they are perfectly fine
If it's in your price range and you own it from a very young age, the horse will probably be an awesome horse when he/she is older, but horses that are already broken in are good, but mostly more expensive.
That is how you train a horse.
Is it the same if you have a miniature horse or not
It depends on the horse, some horses may act different to certain things
In this series the part where he gets on the horse is missing
I’m surprised the horse didn’t kick you when you walked behind it
That is the single most dusty horse i have ever seen🤣
So I don’t just jump on his back and hold A and D?
Pressure was never released for this horse... all it was is stress stress stress, build up of pressure... no learning for the horse. If he was more highly strung, it may have ended differently... just my input... no disrespect and thank you for the video 👍👍
@7:23 Sea Biscuit cut that cheese
What people don't understand there's no right or wrong way an we can all pick a what we call a fault with how the horse was handled as long as both horse an human are safe it's ok
wow i need to do that
Don't put a bit in a horses mouth and leave it there then put the horse in a stall with the bit still in the horses mouth
That’s the best way for a horse to accept it
They shouldn’t need to “accept it” there cruel (in my opinion )
Red hearts Nation bits are cruel?
@@EV-jg7gs what do you mean the best way to except it they should learn to trust the rider then get used to the bit but leaving it in that long and in a stall is wrong
The best horse trainer in the world. A horse that has never been handled and he so calm.
I call BS!
You're not the only one calling BS. I am amazed and the comments saying it is a great video!
Ok my granddaughter wants to get a pony
He looked really stressed out the entire time. even when he had your trust.. And he looked really under musculed
7:20 how is this man not phased by what has just happened?
Alvin Alvin..... Please
7:21 the horse farts
Lighten up ili, no one likes a party pooper
Wow
This is all way way too fast for this colt. I hate that he also has a bridle on and is tied so short. I can’t imagine the fear. This makes me so angry. This horse went from the pasture to being bridled tied to a post and saddled. Grrr poor horse. Then immediately cinch the saddle. Wow. And this guy thinks he is gentle and caring. I just can’t.
It's a bunch of crap you don't just put the saddle on the first day you have to spend at least a couple of weeks before you put the saddle on not when he "trusts" you in a couple of minutes and what's up with the bridle on him he's not ready for that either.
you see it works.
Victoria Brewer thank you finally some one who wrote something smart, I agree with you completely.
longeing and long-lining need to come first. And leaving a bridle with bit on a horse in the stall? seriously?
Victoria Brewer i was thinking the exact same thing straight from the Pasture and he has a bridal an bit??
That's not true. It all depends on trust and personality.
Yay no whips trust is the best.
this is also a way of grooming humans to behave. establishing trust and willing to succomb. Look at how humans are being groomed to be "a good human"
It's called having ethics and morals? Wtf lol
Why is there a halter and bridle on the horse and why does the black Arabian look like it’s in a stable with a halter and bridle with its mouth tied shut I like your method but I don’t like how those people are treating there horses
You are so lucky he didn't kick you
if those horses always have bits on thats so wrong
Paris Richardson they don’t always have it on lmao. He isn’t even tied up by it, there’s a halter on attached, where he’s tied up. It’s just to help them get used to the feeling
Melanie Willard Shut up, you sound like a vegan and you judge shit by what you see in the video, that horse in the stall could have just been worked with and is just left in their to be worked on in some short minutes, they could also have it on for them to feel it so they don’t get worried when getting worked with. And the breakers that let them starve is just wrong but I feel your making that up to make yourself look good. Now please don’t go commenting shit like this to make the video look bad.
If this horse hasn't had anything done with it before.. I want to know how the HELL you got that bit in its mouth. Are you a magician??
Put a blanket inder your saddle pad
That horse looks skinny
could you break the horse when she is pregnant
Probably not considering shed probably be more protective if pregnant
YoUr OkaY BOAH
1:40 did he fart? Lol
Actually he farted a few more times
really that's all that you saw
ThAt foal was really dirty
he's not a foal. he's 3 already and also he's not that dirty
Looks like he just rolled in some dust. Some horses like being in the dirt more than others.
Yea
It's just his color
the other parts, will be posted as soon as they are loaded, be looking out for them soon!
I was happy until isaw the spurs
Melanie Willard I know
Who's the person taking the video? Should've used a tripod and a better camera. Crappy video, but good horse info. Good grief!
Only needs a simple halter on at that stage! Why did you put all that mouth gear on? I would never do that.
He probably got him used to that first so that he could get him used to brushing him and touching the rest of his body because I would imagine a simple halter would be easier to slip out of than a regular bridle
I've trained many horses and always go for the free bonding approach....my horses love me.
not to be rude....BUT THATS NOT HOW YOU BREAK A HORSE!.... ok that was rude
BOAH
Your horse is clearly underweight, i shouldn't be able to the the ribs
He is still young so that might play a role
Sounds like Obama
Awesome Bro...You sure know your horses... All the keyboard drop nuts warrior's need the pansy process because they got no balls...If I was a horse I wouldn't listen to a drop nut...
There is nothing fucking proper about this...Every session when breaking in a horse should be started in a round pen on a lunge line, reminding the horse of all the building blocks that led up to the moment you introduce them to the saddle and taking off any excess energy. They sure as fuck don't start being tied to a post with TWO ropes in a bit and bridle. The horse is tense the entire time and looks scared to act out. This could have ended horribly with a horse with a broken neck. And seriously knee pads, shin guards, and Spurs? You're gentling a young horse, not going to war. You're only borrowing trouble doing it this way.
That is one dusty horse!
He's not "relaxed" at any point during this video and you're doing a very poor job of reading your animal. My main problems here are:
1. you have a prey animal SNUB TIED to a post where he can't get away and is very confined.
2. You're rushing him. He is giving you clear signals that he's not ready. Eyes rolling back, moving anxiously and trying to get away. The only reason he looks "relaxed" is because you've pushed him to the point where he's overwhelmed, or "flooded" with stimuli and there's too much for him to deal with so he's shut down.
3.whenever he moves to "get away" you pin him between the fence and your body, trapping him.
I understand there is not one way to train horses but please take this comment into consideration. I have no intention to hate you, I just believe there is a kinder, more understanding way to do things than the way you're doing things.
The horse is too young! And I don't like the word "breaking" the horse! It's called starting a horse!
Jacqueline Leubin It is reasonable that different folks have different feelings on this Actually, there is a lot of room here as different breeds develop a bit differently. Different horses, just like different people, develop and mature at different speeds. There is a lot 'different' in this as well. Anyway, here is the way I like to see it happen; foals get handled and imprinted at birth, then get halter broke and trained to lead (with their mares) quickly. After that they are left alone with their mares and the herd with only a little handling to reinforce their initial conditioning to be handled by humans. Weaning takes place at 6 months to a year of age. Yearlings get handled on the ground regularly and begin light ground schooling once a week or so. They can be saddled but not ridden. At two years most horses can have a first ride. Then only an occasional short ride (once a week or twice a month or so and brief) with more regular ground schooling until three years of age. At three years most horses are ready to begin a regular program of under saddle schooling. Those horses will be considered 'green' until they are close to 6 years of age. At 3 1/2 to four years a horse can have a job, like trailing cattle. This is good, steady work without a lot of stress, just miles. Some solid, regular schooling should be part of the program as well. If the horse were to be trained for competition of any sort, 2 1/2 to three years old is a good time to start, depending on the horse and the type of competition.
But breaking the horse sounds a lot cooler
Nope! Its "breaking" now and forever!
Starting a horse can mean anything. And 3 isn’t too young lmao. Every horse is different, this horse is developed enough for it to not harm him
@@oliviapatterson792 well not being rude or anything but i have a 4 year old twh and she was being ridden quit a bit before she was 3 and didnt have a lot of ground work but had some and goes for hours and is amazing now
Wrong
The horse is scared. 1 you don't just saddle him do you know pressure and release. 2 that horse don't fucking trust you. I have a 3 or 4 year old filly she is barely halter broke and has never seen a saddle pad or saddle I can put a saddle pad on her no problem cause she really does trusts me. you are not a horse trainer you are just some person that thinks you are. that horse is still scared. the horses shouldn't have bits in their mouth while stabled it can do very bad damage to the horses. AND the horse doesn't need to be tied up when doing this. You can't gain a horse's trust in one day it takes time and patience something you apparently don't know. I got me a three year old filly she was abused and starved it took me nearly a month before I got her a full Trust I can do anything with her and I've only had her like 2 or 3 years. that horse doesn't trust you can't gain trust and like 6 minutes and so much more I want to say but my comment is already too long
