[@jasperandkatie9217]

Ty this will help so much lol

[@KJ-ws7wl]

Non horse related - I also use my old one to clean areas in my house (gas hobs, window frames, corners in the shower, sink holes)

[@carlaschultz4569]

in the summer you can chop up apples and carrots, put them in a bowl with water and freeze them. then when it's frozen take it out of the bowl and give it to your horses

[@morganmyhre8208]

[@tori_2oo853]

... why am I looking at hacks if I don’t even have a horse... (btw I might get one next year). But yea why now ?!

[@jorjettekillough9690]

HorseLover _2004 Idk either why you would but it's a good Idea to so you have all the knowledge possible! That's what I'm doing since my new house in Georgia has two horses! They will be my first :)

[@horsesRmylife]

River of Chained Delusions- we have a page on AJCW *lucky*

[@sofiabroberg7489]

you can never start too early...

[@c2kate854]

I don't either but I care for a horse!

[@creativemachineyt944]

Tori _2OO ur getting prepared :) ur smart

[@ValentinaCowgirl]

I love this video!! I'm obsessed with the way you wrapped the látigo! Will definitely be using some of these hacks! 💖

[@LeeAcresFamilyFarm]

+Valentina Cowgirl Thank you😊❤️

[@terri3401]

the latigo tie is GENIUS!

[@equestrianfanclub6864]

No, its not genius, its stipid. Tbe leather slits are for the latigo.

[@klane.equine9189]

@@equestrianfanclub6864 rude

[@wiklol3935]

We do this at our yard before the riding lessons

[@NiamhAndBentley]

wait, not everyone ties their horse onto twine?! literally how i’ve been brought up, so have literally all my family and horsey friends?!

[@LeeAcresFamilyFarm]

Niamh AndBentley You don’t have to, it’s just safer because they can break free. ☺️

[@candypanda4349]

Me too!

[@haleymariexx9246]

I use Safe-T ties or something like that when I go to races and have to tie, but at home I don’t tie. (My horse tries to kill herself when she’s tied so I make it easier on both of us)

[@kyleharris2506]

Yeah we were brought up to use twine as well cause if they pull back they can just break the twine instead of their neck

[@andicarusfell8387]

Niamh AndBentley Oh I have cross ties/ cross latches because they are like clips or latches. I think the horses can still breakaway. I don’t own a horse so I ride at a stable so I’m not entirely sure if they can breakaway

[@wiklol3935]

Good tip: if you give your horse a treat before the ride to me during the ride they know that you have more treats so they can stay calm. This worked with the horse I ride almost every time. Also give them more treats after the ride so they know they were a good boy/girl.

[@ashtonsawesomeaussieanimal2133]

Its not a good idea to give a horse some treats before a ride like if u give them a lot they can get frisky and spicy 😅

[@emmalarsen6964]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who does the pool noodle in the boot thing

[@alystaaguilar8343]

I already knew all of these, but it is always good to have a refresher

[@charlottesantosus957]

Every one of these is AMAZING... This is probably the most helpful video I've ever watched!!!

[@cellogang6190]

Heyyy!! I ride western as well and I just started riding regularly your tips are really helpful and they help me become a better rider not just this video but every video thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@LeeAcresFamilyFarm]

magpiebald Awww I’m so glad!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@Dana-koc]

Poo noodle cracked me up 😆😆

[@lilbarrrlracer2241]

Lol

[@hoosierknitter35]

thanks for sharing Hannah. I showed this to my husband and we are definitely going to give these a try with our horses

[@ajgensel9359]

FYI The first hack shown actually partially utilizes the flaps on a western saddle meant for this purpose. If you look to either side of your pommel you will see two flaps attached via a concho. The near side flap will have a horizontal slot meant to thread your latigo through when it is not in use. The off side flap will have a vertical slot meant for the cinch buckle the exact way she shows you. It's less a hack and more that most have forgotten the reason these flaps exist and that they aren't just decorative.

[@calleighboddle7961]

My saddle now is dark like really dark i used to use them like that but it rubbed and now you can see it so i now try not to

[@aliviaduit7191]

I do that to it works really good that’s how I’ve always done it

[@paigemiracle8891]

Yup! But I did that too much, and it broke 😂 so now I only do that when I’m riding

[@ziapool1781]

Love these hacks! Good tip for equestrians in the summer- Freeze apple slices, a teeny bit of organic apple juice, and water in a cup for a fun summer treat for your horse!

[@saylorrayne2358]

I do that every summer lol

[@lauren.b0318]

That first life hack with the latigo and cinch is really cool

[@peyteneq5301]

I have been riding for 6 months in English saddle and I'm learning to jump right now and your tips really help me out

[@nikkib.5842]

It's been a while since I watched one of your videos and I've never seen that saddle before lol... I like it!!!

[@jasminecaron341]

THANK YOU THESE ARE LIFE SAVERS

[@mainfal]

Best cleaning Equestrian hack is if you use galvanized watering troughs and they get dirty, don't bother using a sponge or SOS pad use DIRT and a sponge! It works great. Also if you change you water frequently and live in a warm enough climate you can add fish to water to eat the mold and extra hay in your water troughs, always keeps your houses entertained! 😀

[@dannyonsaturn5458]

I don’t ride western n I don’t think I’d start but the saddles are honestly so beautiful I can’t

[@LeeAcresFamilyFarm]

+Tiffany Hubyki Thank you so much!💕

[@clairemcintosh2497]

I am interested in getting a horse, but i'm a beginner. I like watching your videos because they tell me everything i need to know about horse. I really want to know how you put your horses to sleep. Do you put them in their stall at night and let them out in the morning or do you keep them out in the pasture all night? I think you should make a video about your horses daily routine. Just a thought, because it would really help me out. P.S. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!

[@ridingwithspirit6922]

I legit thought I discovered something new the hay bale opening hack until I watched this and learned I'm not the only one who thought of this....

[@arib.6679]

I don't even ride but I still love ur vids!! 🐎🐎😂😂

[@kayleighpicarro8375]

yasssssssssssssssssss i loved this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i knewe all of these but ur just soooooooooooooo entertaining

[@hannahellinwood7961]

[@chloemair1329]

Also for taking water places u can get a gallon jug and bring that with a bucket that is Wht I do for shows. And to get horses to drink out apples ,carrots etc in water buckets and will encourage them to drink more

[@elenaberrios1466]

i love riding this was so helpful ❤️

[@madisondeans1749]

I just love my pony and horses in general

[@saylorrayne2358]

I was always told that The part that goes under the belly is the girth and the strap that you tie to the girth is the cinch.

[@breyerlover797]

Great video and it really helped

[@sadieeastdawn2951]

For the twine thing, at my stable the majority of side hook things have twine on them so it’s very handy :D

[@sarahwoodard676]

I use a certain type of mouth wash (it's safe for horses) to clean out their water troughs so that if they accidentally ingest some, it's not a big deal.

[@mikaelasilcock6697]

Of course great video and gorgeous horses👍🐴

[@LeeAcresFamilyFarm]

+Mikaela Silcock Thank you!

[@kylacook8124]

[@emilygagliano8613]

Omg. Where did u get that tack & feed sign!! I’m in love with it❤️😂

[@LeeAcresFamilyFarm]

Thank you! My Mom actually made it. :)♥

[@westernriderreviewer5219]

very great video. but the water trough idea was okay. but for me since i own a really really big ranch with about 32 some acres and have tons of horses we like to use a heater for the winter just for our water trough and it keeps it from freezing up. we own about 28 some horses and there all in different parts of the ranch n im very busy teaching lessons so i wouldnt have time to do all that. but anyways that video was a very helpful idea for me i will show it to some of my beginner English Riders and see what they think. because that is what most of my table is are English Riders we do got some western riders but mostly English.

[@Sades-gq4sb]

SQUIRREL!!!! Lol I love you Hannah!!!

[@cheyvlogs6819]

Hi!! I watch your videos all the time and I just got a new horse!!! Her name is Lola!! I have 1 question What type of conditioner did you use for the detangler spay?? Or does it matter?? Sorry I’m New to this stuff if u couldn’t tell 😂

[@sentientbasketball6103]

CheyVlogs you can go to Walgreens and get horse conditioner/shampoo or order it online! 😃🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎

[@simplyagirl6789]
