How To Fix A Reactive & Head Shy Horse In 2 Minutes!

[@anelavukas1366]

I tried this after watching your video how to fix ear shy horse, it was similar and it really worked, and very quickly! I wanted to thank you ever since, now you reminded me!

[@HorsePerfect]

Oh that’s awesome! I’m so glad it helped! 😊

[@OTTB.Princess2019]

This'll be very helpful with my OTTB because he does NOT like his Ears being touched, which makes it hard for us to Bridle him.

[@HorsePerfect]

Hope it goes well with your horse! Should work 👌🏼🙌🏼

[@mialfaequestrian]

My haflinger has the exact same issue.

[@OTTB.Princess2019]

@@HorsePerfect He bridles almost amazingly every time now! Now just the ear bonnets 😓

[@HorsePerfect]

@@OTTB.Princess2019 fantastic!

[@DareBearGaming96]

Great tip! I’ve had to use this one a few times myself. Almost always with Bays. I like how he got used to it so fast he offered his ear to you just after a few tries. He must already trust you despite the ear problem.

[@HorsePerfect]

Thank you! He’s been a great horse to work with even though in the beginning people said there was no hope for him because he was so wild! Now we have a nice bond 👍🏼

[@DareBearGaming96]

@@HorsePerfect I’ve had a few “lost causes” come into my stables myself that just needed a little extra attention. I guess I just have a thing for the underdogs. I like what you’re doing here. Keep up the good work!

[@HorsePerfect]

It does take extra patience to gain their trust doesn’t it? But it’s so worth it! Thank you! Will do!

[@veroniqueviaudFaspasie_1957]

​@@DareBearGaming96I never knew exactly why I often bonded with what you call lost causes. I believe it 's only horses who require some extra care, some softness, someone trying to listen to them and understand them . My little Punchie is a " old " race horse, a OTB, and she decided to trust me the day I freed her from a bridle. She kept for me a grateful feeling. She is classified difficult horse but I never thought like that. She behaves now with me like with an owner. Possessive girl, tender and so trustful. She is a horse school. I have also good relationships with children when I was a teacher. I can be soft and I can be severe too but never unfair. These horses are really clever and interesting. I hope my French language will be enough good... 😊

i got this appaloosa mare who doesn't allow us to put on a bridle or been touched there, it's only the one ear

[@HorsePerfect]

Hi! We’re you able to use this method with her or not yet?

[@thedogthatlived8649]

What if the horse won’t even let you touch its face before lifting their head up

[@HorsePerfect]

I have some new videos coming out soon that should help with that! Can you get a halter on him?

[@thedogthatlived8649]

@@HorsePerfect yes I can get a halter on her the problem is when she doesn’t have one on

[@HorsePerfect]

I have a video on catching horses it’s one of my first ones have you seen it? Those tips may help!

[@meganpahl3612]

Hello. I have a mare who is very sweet but she gets pissy wherever you touch her. She is 12 now and should be used to this but I do not know the way she was treated prior to our purchase. It has been one year though and she will pin her ears back and shake her head at me regardless of where I touch her.

[@youknow_alex1668]

I'm no expert! If the creator of this video replies, he is probably going to have a better responds to this. But I would assume that your horse was treated badly, or just enough that she would feel uncomfortable with people touching her. What I would do is I would change her bad experience with touch to something good. That everytime she got touched she would get her food, or treats or just anything that she likes. Then she would want you to touch her, because she wants the reward. Of course, every horse is different, and I don't know her at all so I am pretty much assuming things here, but if you don't get any better tips, it's worth a shot. The worst that could happen is that it isn't working. Good luck with your horse!

[@meganpahl3612]

@@youknow_alex1668 I want to thank you for your reply. It means a lot. Yes, we got her from the original breeder and other than performing on halter show, she was a pasture pet with a killer blood line. I feel the same way about her past. It has been a year of nothing but ground work and lovin's for her and she is still trying to come around:)

[@youknow_alex1668]

@@meganpahl3612it sounds like she found a good home :)

[@HorsePerfect]

Great advice! Thanks for helping other horse people on the channel! 🙌🏼👍🏼🤩

[@belladrippy5352]

What do I do if my horse doesn’t have a place where she allows me to touch and walks away from humans as she is very avoidant of humans, she doesn’t allow anyone around her and refuses to take treats from our hands or a bucket if we’re holding it

[@HorsePerfect]

I highly recommend going through these exercises found in this playlist with her… kzbin.info/aero/PLWIG3pbsJfz5oJeYQ3XDfmt0I4TYNbKIj

[@elizabethgrayson530]

This doesn't work to "fix" all ear shy horses. I have a ver ear shy guy. Of course I start at the muzzle or neck first and go up, but the ear shyness always comes back. It helps, but never goes away in all horses.
