I have always taught my young horses to stand tied using the "pulley system" during their grooming sessions. Never had one develope a pull back issue.

I’ve got one. Sometimes he will be fine. I recently started using a tie blocker ring. He just walks out far enough to get tangled or totally escapes. Love the horse hate this 1 thing about him. Considered hobble training ? I don’t know.
@EicherRanchКүн бұрын
Once they’re not anxious or claustrophobic anymore, I’ll start hard tying and/or hobble train, they have to keep advancing in their training for sure 👍

If anyone watching this is pretty green you may want to pay attention to the way he's gathering his rope. He's gathering it in a way that if his horse got away with him that any part of his body would not get tangled up in it which could possibly yank you into the fence. He's gathering his loops in his hand and not making coils in his hand like a lariat rope.

I had a mare that I couldn't hard tie the entire time I had her. I tried everything I knew. She would stand still and quiet as long as she could feel some give, so I got really good at tying her with some slip in her rope. Thanks!

O'l 'Red is a 😍 Beautiful horse! I watched this video several times so I could study his reactions and how you knew when to add more pressure, draw him in, and get that bend. I really love dhow you work with him; giving him freedom to leave or make that choice to "commit" I found you through Ryan Rose and so glad I did! Learning a lot from watching your videos. Thank you so much! Now I have two favorite trainers!

Beautiful horse. That horse seems to be afraid of you? That's not normal after 50-60 days of training.
@EicherRanch10 күн бұрын
When you get horses off of big ranches just like the four sixes, they are almost like wild Mustangs, so they are standoffish and often times reactive because of the way they’re bred for cows, so it’s not a fear because he’s been treated wrongly, it’s still a reactiveness from not being handled enough, he’s not had a consistent 60 days I hope that makes sense, this is especially true with good cow bred horses coming off the big ranches in Texas

French Classical Dressage rider here. As you know, your communication with this animal is remarkable. It really fascinating to watch how deftly you move this horse's mind in a step by step process to achieve your goals. It's like leading the horse across a shallow river - stepping stone by stone so neither you nor your horse gets his feet wet. Incredible skills.

Real nice Nate!! I Do this daily, I’m a farrier and horse trainer, not my job I know, but getting some good results, real tricky to get owners to do this, a lot of owners lack horse skills and confidence, I’m not sure to tell them to do it and potentially get hurt or let the horse away with it making him worse, really tricky subject, all I know is there are more badly trained impatient horses then there are the good ones! All the best thanks for showing us From Nz

@Greg-v3s I appreciate it! It is a tricky subject, the ideal thing would be to send the horse to the trainer for a while, for this kind of training if they are uncomfortable doing it, but I know exactly what you’re talking about!

Are reactive horses nervous in nature or can reactiveness in a horse have various causes?
@EicherRanch19 күн бұрын
I have not found a reactive horse to be nervous by nature, they just notice things quicker and react, i don't see that as a bad thing, but like to teach them to think instead of reacting, sometimes reactiveness comes from being abused, so in that case, yes, it would be a nervous, worried, scared reaction.
