@@pamelabrady4241 What??

[@HobbitHomes263]

I am old and old school. Back in my cowboyin years a guy would get his "string" of 5 or 6 horses and it was up to you to make them useful and safe work partners. I just got in the habit over the years of tacking up before breakfast and let them set in the corral while I ate. Then I would come out and just spend two or three minutes on very basic ground work just like this. It established who would be the boss that day and got them focused on me before I climbed aboard. Even though I had strings with a couple of really fractious youngsters in them, I never had issues. If I was just doing some actually training that day and no matter how calm or advanced a horse was, I would begin this way just to set the tone for the training by giving them something to do that I know they could do successfully before we moved on to new things or problem solving.

[@weplaytowin]

Do you have any suggestions for a horse that has a fear of being tied- to the point of breaking bridles and halters?

[@HobbitHomes263]

@@weplaytowin first, I never tie a horse up using the reins. If that horse is sucking back at the rail a bit can do a lot of damage to its mouth. Horses' natural defense is to RUN. WHen tied you have taken away it's ability to defend itself. I did have one horse that would fight being tied. I found he just objected to the idea. I could just lay his halter rope over the rail untied and he would stand there all day. First thing to do is find out what is making it decide it needs to get away, Problem is it could be about anything. things like this need a lot more information and to actually be there to see what the setup is. I would start just laying the rope over the rail. get a lawn chair and a beer and see what he does. If he leaves the rail, where does he go? WHat else was going on when he moved. I've worked horses that didn't like you to face them when putting on the bridle. I've had them that fought the rail while tacking up but would stand tied the rest of the day tied. It's detective work but it's not an unsolvable problem.

[@HobbitHomes263]

@@weplaytowin just to put a ribbon on it, when I ran into a horse that was just reacting to things around the ranch the way he should I just "re-started" like a colt from the feet up and looked for the holes in his training and experience. I also started my younger horses with ground tying and never tied them off hard until I could stop them while dismounted with voice and hand signals. On a working ranch you may be out doctoring steers miles from home on your own and you gotta be off your horse working. You sure don't want them taking the notion to go back to the barn without you. To me, standing tied, stopping and backing are connected

This video demonstrates why vets should always be questioned. This horse has had extensive treatment and multiple months of recovery time. Yet, at a slow "trot" he's still stepping short and stabbing his right hind into the ground. It's obvious the medical treatment isn't working. BTW, Ryan did a great job of showing the owner how to control her horse. He's a very good horseman/instructor. As a side note, stem cell therapy is a crap-shoot at best. It sometimes works great... and sometimes doesn't work at all.

[@brendamoore447]

This is a "real life" situation and a strong willed horse. Great teaching video, because correcting him once, didn't make it perfect, just gave him something to think about. That's how it happens with most people/horses. I appreciate how the trainer keeps it real and explains everything. That's alot of horse. The owner keeps her cool, does her best and sought out help. Had obviously spent alot of time and money on him. That being said, I would stop the "good boys". He may not understand the words but he understands the tone. He is definitely disrespectful and dominant. I would guess that he was that way before his injury. Time off, pain, stall rest only intensified it That alot of random reaction for a horse that's sedated. Good luck and stay safe.

[@rockjockchick]

She did say in the video something about some of his behavior being that way before the injury.

[@bombud1]

Small corrections early and often are much more effective and efficient than large corrections too late. Ryan is spot on. At the same time, like when she is getting him to trot, less is more with noises. If used too much, noises have less effect.

[@Anaideia-em7be]

I once worked at a jumper barn that had a beautiful cross country horse that had a stifle injury, he was supposed to be hand walked daily but no one would do it because he had been locked in a stall for months and months trying to heal. He would immediately bolt, so much energy pent up, he just wanted to run and be a horse. They ended up taking him swimming, he burned his energy and stayed fit but without the impact that could worsen his injury. I wonder if that would benefit this fella, he just seems to want to run and play. Let him burn his energy in a safe low impact way, he'd probably stop blowing up.

[@rosemarybasse5498]

Of course, but how do you safely get him to rehab? It requires being led and potentially trailering. It's about being able to just safety be around him in this case.

The fact that she needs to interject and provide vocal "encouragement" to the horse, demonstrates that she has boundary issues of her own. The horse should be paying full attention to the trainer with the lead, and her efforts to coax performance from the horse show that she is more concerned with appearances than may be healthy. Nearly every "problem horse" I ever observed had a human caretaker with problems.

I've had horses on stall rest and walking was about the same thing. The horse has been locked up and longs to run, so this is normal behavior.

[@shilo7535]

I see a lot of things wrong here personally. Between her fidgeting with the horse at the beginning, waving the whip around carelessly, not being aware of her own body language, also reinforcing the bad behavior with “good boy” when he blows up. Dublin is being treated more like a puppy rather than a horse that needs to be handled properly while undergoing rehab. I hope this doesn’t come off as rude or mean, but 9 times out of 10 it’s never the horses fault...this is a good example of that.

[@caitlinw8351]

I agree with most of this, except that you can’t reinforce emotion. the horse is spooking because he is emotional. I reassure my horses after they spook, because I know they were not in control of themselves. Patting my horse after she spooks isn’t going to make her spook more. It in fact calms her down. She can not decide to be scared more often because she doesn’t get in trouble for being scared; can you make yourself terrified on cue in order to get a treat? Getting after a horse for spooking will only make them more flighty and fearful. You have to help them learn to cope with their fear, and that will never happen by adding pressure

[@cindybrygman4350]

Great video to see both the knowledge of Ryan and Emily! The lady is also excellent however we tend to forget that this is a large animal and we continue to love on them when sometimes they need more of a leadership role. Likely because of his injury to baby him up…I am guilty of same. I think this horse just felt a tad unsure of the leaderships role and would blow up because he needed to survive the day as he didn’t think his owner was in charge. This is why he would push into her space to check the role and she allowed it with a good boy comment when clearly what Ryan did was reassure that it’s not acceptable now or ever regardless of the situation. Great to see a quick lesson learned and see the calmness and relief soon after. Great job to all and beautiful horse you are Dublin!

Hi, I have an alpha mare who was taken off grass over Spring and summer and fed magnesium supplements. She is very alert and edged sometimes. However, after 4 months of regular magnesium supplements she became very calm but then would have sudden outburst of very skittish behaviour, coupled with losing her sense of perception at jumps and even the smallest of banks. I took her off the magnesium, put her back on grass( not the fresh stuff), gave her 4 months off over winter. I have now brought her back into work (4 months) and I finally have my old horse back.

What an amazing owner! I see it so often when people get themselves into these situations and it's because they have too much horse and not enough experience. She understood the assignment perfectly because she's a good equestrian with knowledge. She gets it, she knows the concepts, knows and clearly loves her horse, she just needed another perspective to help her put it all together. There's no shame in that, getting a bit of outside help is smart and done out of care. Sometimes it takes another set of eyes to see and remind you of what you already know. It just helps things click. He's a lucky boy! His owner loves him, knows what she's doing and learns quick. Her calmness around him is everything! I would love to see a future update with her possibly back under saddle. He's gorgeous, seems like he wants to please, he just needs guidance. She's loving and calm, but also capable of being firm when necessary. Never underestimate ground work. My hope is that he makes a full recovery because these two will be a beautiful partnership under saddle.❤️

Stall rest must be so frustrating for the horse. Must be hard for him to manage himself. Think some of us might want to act out if we were being cooped up and didn't understand why. It was good to see how to work through this and hopefully his rehab can now be managed successfully. It would be a shame after all the long treatment if the result got compromised by the horse not coping and acting out. Nothing wrong IMO in soothing your horse with gentle tones. Telling how he is still a good horse ought to remind us we don't blame horses for their behaviour. It's them communicating something; usually fear. The handlers job surely is to help them through difficult issues and not to blame or punish? I liked the owners attitude and her willingness to learn.

I had a 8year old lusitano, who wasn’t trained nor ridden at that time. Appealed to have the same behaviour, lack of boundaries, outbursts, etc… But I put so much time into making him clear what is Ok and whatnot and he learned it so quick!! Everyone said he’s dangerous and I mean, maybe he was - but that was due to a bad education. Educate your horses. All that effort and time put into is going to pay off, I promise. Just don’t give up if you can’t do it on the first try. Try to be patient, as if you’d be talking to a 3 year old girl - repeat it again and again. Also: when a horse does something right, give him a cuddle and a treat, so it understands what he has to do next time. It may seem unimportant, but even to ‘control’ a horse, you have to make that clear. And if you can’t do it alone, don’t be ashamed to ask for help. Better do it right, then to fuck it up real bad.

Lol, not super fit for myself, great job Ryan. Working with a long standing out of control habits on horse

[@kimrall7350]

My horse used to do this, come to find out, she insisted on pooing and peeing before walking into the trailer. I tied her to the trailer, loaded it up which gave her time, and she walked in happily loaded evert time... LOL

[@davidskaggs9914]

Looks like he's got ton of energy being in that stall all day...Good luck wearing him out!

[@HelenGardner-y1i]

Did she actually just tell this horse " good boy" for lunging at the trainer?!?!😮

[@okiegranny4844]

Disgusting

[@TTOnDuty22]

Good boy so he can calm down and you can trust him

[@Inca1122]

Never mind the physical limitations of this horse it was a great video on a horse that can be pushy. I am wondering if I should connect the snaffle to the lead rope since my horse tends to be very looky and distracted when I try to work him and do that head lowering.

Loved this horse. Draught crosses are super smart. Nice to see good horse trainers all train the same way. Slightly different lyrics but the same song. For the owner I would teach him clear verbal cues for walk, trot and halt. It makes a world of difference in situations like this. I would also stay on the horses outside shoulder, Ive found for a woman it gives better control and is safer. Very nice horse.

Equine vet tech here. Try trotting horses all day, on pavement, in boots and jeans, in Oklahoma summer for lameness exams. Foot problems are best for me so I can stop after the first block. 😅 If you want to get in shape just become an equine vet tech, lots of sports medicine. Its an all day workout!

[@tiannakyker3175]

I’m not a professional horse trainer but one thing I noticed in this video is that the horse seemed very reactive to the whip in her hand. When she walked up on the right side of horse with the whip in her hand. She raised her whip a lil bit and that’s when the horse exploded next to Ryan. When she was working with the horse without the whip the horse got a lot better cause he realized there was no whip in her hand. So perhaps the horse just needs to get desensitized to a whip for groundwork and also just needs to be lead with just a lead rope. Not be led with whip and lead rope.

[@JG-mt3rp]

What a great owner. She's more than done right by that fractious beast.

[@Pazzazz11]

He’s got his attention & I like he’s close & has his arm out between them .

[@darleneclarke4001]

So enjoyable watching thank you for sharing .

[@marigoldruff]

It's a gorgeous horse.

[@Diesel_Shelby]

Ty for this my horse is not nearly As bad but every once in a while he’ll pin his ears so ty

[@ryanrosehorsemanship]

You bet 👍

[@brbrknndy]

At 22:40 Horse is thinking "I faked you out.". He is such a beautiful animal and very spirited. He's very well taken care of and loves his owner but he also likes playing practical jokes. lol

[@badnelly7819]

Mad respect to the trainer...

[@stoutlager6325]

Very interesting case with this one. Well done.

[@jonathanfunnell4167]

HE IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL HORSE I LOVE HORSES WITH ALL MY HEARTS

[@DareBearGaming96]

Thoroughbred Draft. What a beautiful brute

[@TheBakingSlave]

Eek, I normally love his vids, but this one I feel is being handled not as well. At around 23:00 it is wayyyyyy too much yanking on the snaffle. Snaffles are a harsh bit and they aren't meant for this. He would be much better off if he wants to use pressure using a bitless bridle that puts pressure on the nose.....it also resembles a halter which is what he will be using in this area most of the time. It also will prevent damage to the mouth. Not only that, but he will just learn to control himself with a snaffle in and the second he has a halter.....it will start again. I just think this would work better with a bitless bridle that applies pressure to the bridge of the nose. It requires a lot less tugging and wont do damage to his mouth. Snaffles arent made for this and I would argue its improper use of it.

[@hellogoodbye205]

I actually completely agree. The use of a snaffle here is just bizarre and wont help when the lady is leading him around in a halter, he will learn to just explode when a bit isn't in his mouth. As a trainer this is such an odd way to handle this. I agree with the bitless being a better option as well as he is really yanking, especially in that explosion that you time stamped.

[@CreativeForce29]

Agree as well.

[@comesahorseman]

Ace plus Trazadone? Wow. He's upright thru the hock & a little base narrow behind. Wonder if that's related?

[@sarawalker2073]

I noticed this too. His fetlocks bother me to and was wondering if he has DSLD

[@sandirobinson6966]

Upright all the way up behind. Screams stifle problems someday. You never know what you are going to get anatomically with these sporthorse crossbreds. He seems like a good boy - just taking advantage when he can like ALL horses do. A little respect for his handler and he'll be fine behaviorally. Draft crosses/warmbloods aren't known for being overly ambitious if they don't have to be.
