Belly Rope w/a Wild Mustang | Day Three OK EMM

OK Extreme Mustang Makeover 2021, Day Three
Unfortunately, along with today being a short session in general, my camera died for the last 10 minutes of it! We kept on with the groundwork and desensitizing. Make sure you watch the day one and two videos for this mare first! On day three my main goal was get the belly rope on to see what sort of reaction we'd be dealing with. I got some other things achieved as well and her mane keeps getting longer every video!
In the next video we go to Oklahoma! BIG BREAKTHROUGH video! Stay tuned!

I am absolutely obsessed with this mare, she is so pretty.

[@Kissinglife-Tina]

I think Maia(greek goddess) would be a great name. I can just picture her out there running with the sun shining through her mane being the goddess she truly is😍 I’m so looking forward to follow you on this journey. I just have this gut feeling there’s something really special hiding inside this girl.

[@cutefan5playsmsp895]

She is wonderful, the pleasure to be able to train such a quite horse, she learns so fast. Wow

[@RealmofRuss]

She's such a beautiful mare. Definitely coming along nicely.

[@kathybradbury]

I love her look. She appears to have a lot of Spanish influence.

[@suzanneyorkville]

yes she does

[@juliedalgardno3361]

She would look really great with Linx! Maybe keep her? She's so cute! WONDERFUL to watch your videos 😊!

[@SilvaSeraphim]

Sad its a short Vid but oh well... I've said it before but after she cleans up she will make a BEAUTIFUL Hack!

[@AlmaVidaHorseRanch]

She's such a sharp and kind mare! Good work 🥰

[@lynndellcox7078]

She is doing excellent

[@kasi7630]

She is a lovely mare. I hope you buy her yourself she and lynx make a beautiful matched pair. So much you can do with them together. Riding them both (a foot on each back) In harness together. Dual jumping.. :)

[@lynndellcox7078]

Your a awesome trainer

[@AnaHdezOquet]

Love watching you work, it's very calming.

[@moonshyneart2840]

I think Opal or Pearl would be a cute name for her, personally ❤️

[@marinairathemagnificent]

Lol, the goats in the background

[@alexboies1227]

Awesomesauce! Great session and nice video. She has such a beautiful face. Have high hopes for her!❤️

[@lindseyshellenbarger7819]

Great job Sam and she's gorgeous! Just curious are you using a lunge line when working with her or is it just a longer lead?

[@arianaguajardo3610]

She is stunning! Does she have a similar build to fiesta?

[@annashantery3063]

She is so pretty. Have you picked a name?

[@jesseelisabeatty3259]

i have long thick hair..i se frizz ease ( its like garnier sleelk and shine ..its like a ? silicone slick gel..worked so well, i use it on my afgan hound abd my irish wolfhound/ bearded collie.. and my friend who has a horse used it on her horse on its mane and tail.its a little bit greasy? at first..but..it makes it where you can run a hair brsh ( human one ) pretty easily through it..it has to be the that product..once you have it sleek and untangled..you can use your horse products. its no toxic..lol i use mane and tail on my hair and the sleek and shine or frizz ease..( feels like oil. but its not.and not like conditioner.)

[@jesseelisabeatty3259]

i cant spell lol sorry

[@p.m.b36]

I like your Videos, but do you ever have had a sensitive horse with much fear, that always fight for running away ...and running and running...? Please let me know.

[@lisag378]

I just love her face! so beautiful

[@kedricransom3714]

What does it mean to make her dull

[@KingsMom831]

So she like Snoozes opposite 😆

[@josiekendall]

I love her face! you can tell shes just trying so hard to think through every single thing. I feel like after she comes out of her shell she will be a real people pleaser. I'm so addicted to your channel.

[@sassykat2000]

You de-dreaded her mane? I can't wait to see what she looks like now! She is just beautiful. Her face is just Serene. She probably already has a name but Serena would be great. Especially since she tends to stay stuck in one place and watching like she's constantly contemplating what you're doing.

[@frame7629]

I just wanted to say how helpful this is. Your handling demonstrations and knowledge are invaluable. Thank you for taking the time to build confidence in your horses, and your audience.

[@miaprice9244]

I love how nicely she's coming along so far! Also, I like the name Mystic for this girl, she's so beautiful!

[@sarahscottageholidaylet.5071]

She has been wild for so long. All this new human interaction must be soo weird and upsetting. Can you imagine if the roles were reversed? She looks beautiful i love her kind face.

[@Faithepona]

Omg! I am da first to see this! Let’s give same some appreciation! 👍

[@alcevoos]

I have never been this early in my life. She looks so cute!! Can't wait to see how she turns out

[@angiew1841]

Love your videos Sam , you explain things so clearly that are easier to understand , also when you said you were going to see a friend and it was only 8 hours drive ..... me “8 hours “ geez 2 hours is a very long journey in the U.K. lol 😆

[@ericmongrain6178]

I call this video a nice teaser for what's ahead for the next one !! Great video , thanks for the upload !!

[@allisonparramore2642]

I'm always amazed by how quick they make progress. Such intelligence

[@---me8eo]

I was distracted by the kid screaming "DAD!!" in the background the whole time. lol I hope he found his dad. XD

[@lynnferguson7349]

As...she needs some quiet time with slow petting to calm her nerves. Less formal training and more “let’s get to know and trust each other” time.

[@christinezapasa5058]

She saying what's next? That belly rope was easy to handle! Love your training videos. Cheers Aussie Christine 😀

[@mayadouglaszz]

oh man she looks so much bigger then 14hh lol! shes coming along great love her confirmation very wide:)

[@faithholinaty5898]

Will you start her in English or western? Or are you just going with the flow?

[@lovejuliet4969]

Shes doing so good! And she is gorgeous😍 i love everything about her, such a pretty girl 💖

[@5555filly]

Love your softness🥰

[@blueblood1519]

I just got my horse about 1 year ago im still new to the horse world I was wondering if you could do a detailed video of how to round pen a horse I don't know the right body language to use with her?

[@juliecain2869]

Camille hasn't posted yet

[@juliecain2869]

But I love you guys!!!!! Just interested in the guy😔

[@SamVanFleet]

She’s backed up with editing! She will soon

[@juliecain2869]

@@SamVanFleet hopefully!! I get it, but it sucks😭😭

[@moonshyneart2840]

I think Opal or Pearl would be a cute name for her ❤️ she is so timid but so willing to try, even though she gets stuck.

[@Serenitynow3]

She’s such a beautiful Mustang.

[@lianna_burgener]

You and Camille should name the two mustangs after some sort of duo. Like Bonnie and Clyde, Simba and Nala, or Lili and Stitch. I think it would be awesome if the horses names went together since you are training together!

[@horsetraininggal8489]

I have a mare that I bought from the auction.. was sold as an 8 yo saddle horse and came as an unbroken mare. I have been going into her pen (That has 8 other horses in there with her along with some other animals) and just hanging out with her, getting her used to knowing I’m not going to hurt her. I know I should have her in a seperate pen but I haven’t been able to move her. She is very curious and whenever I go into her pen she looks at me with her ears perked and pays full attention to me, but she gets very shy and scared of me when I get close.. just wondering if I should continue doing what I’m doing? I can get pretty close to her now but was wondering if you have any tips.

[@brynnandking3510]

Did you give her a name yet just wondering bc she is beautiful

[@_soso.k4362]

Shes so beautiful and has the cutest face. I suggest the name Brave or Merida, cause she seems like a very brave girl and Merida is the princess from brave.

[@DragonGirl9800]

Name suggestions. Hestia or Glory

[@warmbloodsx2129]

I think your so brave ❤️ from the UK ❤️

[@JoeLinux2000]

I'm trying to find Day One again.

[@kincsototbagi4705]

She is so pretty, so good to see her improving🥰

[@limitedtime5471]

Such a pretty mare!

[@merpequestrian5122]

Early!

[@lynndellcox7078]

Is this the one you got from Annie?

[@emk7132]

Seems like one smart mare!

[@redshorse]

Nice work.

[@TheSweezer]

Do we have a name yet?

[@tazmoretti790]

I love seeing this part of training from you! I’m used to seeing a lot of the end result. I much prefer watching the step by step progress on non trained horses. Seeing how cautious and mindful your are of your every step and her reactions to them is so inspiring. 🥰 I am working with a mare of a very similar temperament. Keep these coming, can’t wait to see the progress. 🤘

[@rubielafountaine5586]

I’m so excited about how this girl is going to turn out. I think she looks like a Lucy.

[@judykpatton9297]

I love that way of teaching her to step over in the front. Nice job with belly rope👏👏👏👏

[@akmal-se8ny]

nice.....

[@idnic]

How old is she? Over five?

[@Hannahs_Mustangs]

Shes nine!!

[@5555filly]

The mares expression says interested!!!🥰🥰👍🐎

[@arthurshat7793]

1:08 she looks like Amalthea from The Last Unicorn.❤️

[@barbaratucker124]

Will she available for adoption at the end of this competition?

[@wesmccoy7061]

Love that mare. She is doing amazing. Great work. 😁

[@Taocat1]

Hey Sam, I'd like to see how you work on getting their shoulders to yield more.

[@cassidywilliams8498]

So excited to see your next videos! It is so cool you are friends with Wylene and I can't wait to see the progress this mare makes!

[@sa_arat]

Honestly, she’s the best mare I’ve ever seen

[@amyawilliams5224]

amazing video she has a nice coat

[@aprilmoses2898]

Love how well she is coming along. Can't wait to see more.

[@LM_Horsemanship]

I noticed when you were clicking to have her go forward you also threw in another noise more like a whistle or a sshh noise, does that have any particular meaning or is it just like the same meaning as clicking just a different sound?

[@elsamcellistrem7321]

I don't know if you already have a name in mind but she seems so calm and serene. She pulls you in with her beautiful eyes and gorgeous build. The name siren (like a sea siren) is an idea! You are doing so well with her! Thank you for posting your progress!

[@georgette0807]

The horses name is winter

[@elsamcellistrem7321]

@@georgette0807 haha thank you! I clearly missed that! I love that name for her
