Getting the attention she deserves

[@bettydonahue3961]

Jake you are doing SOOOO GREAT WITH YOUR BEAUTIFUL 😍❤️ HORSE 🐴🐴🐎🐎

[@kellyyoung2512]

Hello Jake! I look forward to the horses videos ☺ I'm a horse junkie lol 💕

[@debbiec4530]

Very good on the “ round pen “ work Jake. You are doing a lot less smooching and more talking- excellent! You have come so far so fast. I’m so happy for you and the horses! 🤠💕🐴

[@susiehohnke4677]

You’re doing so good at riding! The horses seem to love you!

[@MichelleBralley]

Jake I love seeing you with the horses!! You really do great and they know they are loved!

[@sybilbickford3748]

Jake I’m so darn proud of you. I still remember how nervous you were to even pet at horse. Great job honey ☺️

[@JeanBrewer]

Yes!! His first days at Ima Survivor Sanctuary. He was terrified of those horses. LOL 😆 🤣

[@GrammyTammy13]

Jami has Ruined them all ❤😂

[@tinagraceffa490]

So awesome that you have put in the work and found a love for the horses. Especially how you used to be not comfortable around them.

[@janiceday7495]

I love coming along with you on your rides Jake. Willow is sure going to miss you when you move over to your new home.

[@Kaitlyn_A_carter09]

Jake, you have came a LONG way with the horses!! I remember a time when you were scared of them.. lol. You were still sweet to them, but you wanted nothing to do with them..lol. Soo proud of you!!

[@rebeeccaborne]

🌳 🏡 Happy Thanksgiving. You're doing such good work with the horses. 🌲 🎄

[@catherinechew7691]

Nice ride, Jake. I like the way you helped her face her fears of the hog trap and showing that she do need to fear the smell of a hog.

[@juliemackenzie1978]

Hi Jake! You are so comfortable around Willow now. It’s awesome. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 👍🇨🇦😊

[@janicehanson8688]

You look so GOOD on Willow! Even in shorts! Glad you always wear boots!

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Happy Thanksgiving Jake and to your little beautiful family!😊❤❤

[@horse-lover68]

Jake you are really a very, very fast learner!! God I wish the people I am working with (most of the time it is the owner not the horse) would learn so fast. The only thing I did not see is you cleaning her huf's before amd after riding but maybe you did not film it?? Your Body language is amazing, I see that you are feeling comfortable on a horses back. CONGRATULATIONS 👏👏🎉🎉🎉 PS: of you really want to get her through water maybe take her on a lead rope with you when you ride the other horse. This will help OR you take a lot of time and every time she does not go through water you have to back her up a few step's or make a tiny circle,..Make the right thing easy and the wrong thing difficult for the horse. All the best whishes and happy riding 🙋❤️🇦🇹🐎

[@angiegranberry3366]

Yall all got so many horses, I don't know who is who?? That mare is gorgeous ❤Be safe Jake

[@deborahnye3208]

Jake; wasn’t sure if you caught it or not? I believe she needs her teeth floated, that could be why she has a problem with getting a treat from the hand or picking things up? I’ve been trying to find your short with you dancing and Paris in the background watching. That was so very sweet.

[@BarnMouse]

Willow was fo enthusiastic today! Beautiful bridle. I think she realizes you can be trusted. The "girls" get jealous of each other and Spike was a rebel the other day. It is like freaky Friday horse version.

[@celestefisher985]

Knee-high socks and shorts. 😂😂 I love ❤ you Jake.

[@zelenavz]

I thought he had a skirt on at first glance. 😊

[@JeanBrewer]

Jake looks good no matter what he's wearing. He's beautiful inside and out. We love you, Jake. ❤❤❤

[@bettysmith3871]

Good to see you with the horses.😊

When I read this title was like he is talking about doing something special for the wife - she gave u that handsome Jr❤

[@NMGayla]

Great job in leading her when she’s unsure.

[@RoseHaas-tb3dm]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family ❤🎉

[@sondrastearns1662]

Jake you come a long way since you started with the horses❤❤

[@TerryDavison-f1k]

Hi Jake thanks for having me along God bless y'all love y'all Happy Thanksgiving to y'all

[@lauriejackson7350]

I've said it before and I'm going to say it again Jake I am so proud of how much progress you've made with the horses you are doing excellent job keep it up cowboy Jake

[@ShelbySmith-wl5gi]

So sweet!!!! 🤩

[@debbyalden55]

Willow is so pretty

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Animals can sense real strong and they also can sense danger to, so please always becareful please!

[@jansmall72]

Willow is riding beautifully Jake

[@Andrea-cf6us]

If you have another horse that would go through the water she would be more likely to follow. Also, horses prefer to walk around muddy water like many humans would prefer to do. Horses don't like to step in unsure footing. They need to test it first. Thats why they splash and stomp in the water, they are testing the footing. If you know yourself the water is safe and your horse trusts you cuz you don' force him into scarey predictiments he will eventually get used to walking through water with you. Trust, time and safe situations. If you get your horse stuck in a bog you loose its trust for a long time, so you betterknow what your walking into.

[@horse-lover68]

Exactly!!!! 👍👍👍👍

[@territrombley8273]

Jake, there is an old saying…..”You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink.” It applies to many things in life but, for you, it’s literal lol. Her fear of water comes from a place in her past. She sure is a beautiful baby and you’re doing a great job with her. ❤

[@cherichristy2838]

Love that look, Jake. 😂

[@MarieLuvsNate]

❤

[@EarleneHudgins-ue2ri]

Good job with Willow Jake

[@avdv8960]

Beautiful sky 13:02

[@sheribrady6399]

Jake…… I wish you could have Willow too. Nice friend for SWEET GIRL.

[@91livinginthelight]

🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

[@vickiklein4156]

Seriously since it was said that no one has done anything with Willow in 10 years, the fact that you have taken the time to ride her and groom her even though you don't own her is remarkable. You own Paris and she should be given the priority of the two. You do the work of 10 people there and are the only one that takes extra care of everybody's animals. Stop listening to those people who seem to know horses and probably some do but it's your ride to do with what you will. You are doing just fine!! Willow has a lot of fears that you have been trying to help her with and Paris is just an awesome horse. Just do what you do with whoever you are with. Great job Jake!

[@wendyford2252]

Horses don’t like the wind, it takes away their ears which they need to sense danger. Mine always used to be on edge when the wind blew strong and we were out hacking.

[@carolkennedy7659]

Happy Thanksgiving jake and Alyssa and baby jake and brinly grace

[@crystalnobody4689]

She might not like puddles or ponds because at one point and time she encountered a snake in one.

[@horse-lover68]

No I can promise you that is not the reason -it is about dominance

[@crystalnobody4689]

@@horse-lover68 Are youi sure about that she acts the same way when getting near the trap. Did see her eyes as Jake led her near that trap. THAT WAS SHEAR FEAR. And she acts the same why when near water. Remember she comes from a place snakes in water are common and some of them are deadly.

[@barbaracarol485]

Maybe she had a traumatic experience with water

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Jake honey, you know how it make you feel when your riding the horses just fine!

[@lizmccready1560]

Jake, I think you need to walk her through it by going first - I think i saw something a few years back that said that was the way to do it - you could give it a try - or not

[@Peggy-o4c]

If Willow was in the flooding of property she may have an aversion to stepping into water she may perceive as deep.

[@cathysnead2586]

Good job Jake ❤

[@DarcieToop]

🥰😍

[@vanessadaugherty4294]

Jake, sure you have a chest strap to put your phone in for recording or the glasses y’all received for recording? Either would be a lot better than trying to hold a phone, record and ride!

[@tammyfrey956]

When I was 11 we had a horse that was afraid of water. She would either go around or jump it

[@marciaborg77]

Great job

[@amyrobles4780]

5:15 who is that beautiful white/multi color goat? It looks like Lenny when he was a baby

[@earlinemcgahen3931]

people dont realize that not all the horses are owned by just one person and cant just hop on just anyone. Willow has probabaly been in flooding and bad experiance with water. PTSD dosent happen in just people.

[@littlebit62]

Who’s going to ride Willow when you’re gone? I can tell she’s happy when you’re together and sad when she sees you with Paris.

[@dianapendleton5717]

Some horses do not like walking thru water.

[@susanmckown3054]

O. And. Elwood. Fixed. Yo. He's. Breeding. All. Dan's. Goats. .❤

[@SueBrewer-y3e]

Jake, somewhere, in her time she maybe feared water.

[@SuzannePlouffe]

doing good Jake

[@chrisjohanson9284]

🙏💕😎🌞⭐✨🌟🙂👍🤱🌺💖

[@SueBrewer-y3e]

Paris says dad I thought I was your girl.

[@janetmcconnell7335]

Jake, the reigns should never touch the top of the horse's mane. That is where you are confusing her. You should find another way to video while you are riding. You need both hands on the reigns to steer her correctly and keep the reigns low so you can guide her left and right. Our perspective shows that you are not doing it properly. Please listen!

[@horse-lover68]

👍👍👍👍 Good and right advice. There are camera's you can put on your head and ride.

[@JeanBrewer]

Seriously, people, how do you know how much time Jake gives each animal? Do you believe Jake films 💯 of his life? That's not realistic 😕

[@susanmckown3054]

Hi. Ay. B. Get. Glenn. The. Stud. Donkey. Fixed. ❤

[@lisasancewich9275]

I see baby goats in the future. Don’t remember if he got fixed or not lol

[@sheribrady6399]

Jake… she might have had a very BAD EXPERIENCE WITH WATER

[@beverlycampbell2268]

Could be Willow had a bad slip on water and mud.

[@cherichristy2838]

That's a pretty halter.

[@geacefoster]

I think you need to teach uncle Lester a thing or two about horses

[@jackiefrederick6022]

Hello Jake and Willow

[@karenbarnes5517]

Hi 👋 Jake 🫶🏻

[@debbyalden55]

How is her belly doing?

[@debbiesmith1550]

Jake, if people all want to tell you how to ride, then don’t tape it anymore until they stop complaining If they can’t be respectful to you, they don’t need to watch you.

[@horse-lover68]

Riding and training is a learning process and if you see giving advice and knowledge to help as complaining, you have some problems.

[@crystalnobody4689]

don't look to high to me. Looks just like it looked whe my pah pah gave me horse rides at 5 years old.

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Isn't Willow a girl?

[@catherineportland503]

So horses do like water and some horses dont. Some horses play in water

[@cynthiakochheiser9871]

Jake what the heck are you wearing?

[@JeanneConnell-dy2if]

Why such a goal to put her in water?
