How To Lead A Horse The RIGHT way! (Like A PRO!) Fix Horse dragging you around!

[@sharonh.6702]

I just did this with my brand new horse. I only got her 2 days ago. At first she wouldn't stop with me and just kept going in a circle around me. After a couple of times of making her go around in a tight circle 3 or 4 times, she figured out it was easier to stop. lol I couldn't get her to trot, but after 20 minutes or so she got it! Walking with me and stopping with me and talking a couple steps back. I'm so proud of my sweet Rizzo. Thank you for the incredibly helpful videos!

Rizzo sounds like an amazing horse and you’re already quite the trainer! Already getting her to trot is wonderful progress. We’ll done! So glad the video was helpful! 👏🏼🥳

Good vids man. We recently for a horse that was in 80 ac with other horses and cows and limited human activity. He’s 9 mo now and I now have a halter on him and he’s getting more confident but has a long way to go. Thx man

Thank You! Me too! Haha

Great video, really clear 👌 if the horse was trying to get ahead of u when you’re leading, what would be you go to reaction? Back them up, a disengage, cut across them first or wud u do anything else. Great channel..thx

[@HorsePerfect]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! That happens all the time! If there just going slightly ahead of you then you can try to stop them and back them up. If they’ve gone past you too much to stop them then it’s totally fine to let them do a circle around you which will bring them right back into position next to you! Hope that helps!

[@paulg6852]

Thanks so much for replying, I see some trainers seeing it as a big deal if the horse passes you, like a lack of respect. I like your take on it, it seems your more just circle them and walk on again, as if no big deal. That sounds great @@HorsePerfect

[@husseinmadbouh3157]

Thank you. Absolutely love your skills.

[@HorsePerfect]

You are so welcome!

[@PLT722]

What if your horse wants to be always ahead of you?

[@teresaveloso8773]

Really good horse🐎🐎🐎👩‍✈️

[@pninnabokov3734]

I bought a cavesson for flat work and lunging. Do you think it's a better tool than an ordinary halter or was it a waste of money? For the first time ever I'm rehabbing a couple of horses and I'm learning so much from you! Thank you for your wonderfully informative videos.! God Bless

[@HorsePerfect]

Cavessons are nice. I don’t use them but I know trainers that do. I can usually get everything done with a 4 knot halter. So great to hear about your rehab work with those horses! I’m glad that the videos have been helpful 😊

[@pninnabokov3734]

@@HorsePerfect I also have a 4-knot halter, but I didn't think it would be as "kind" as a cavesson on these older, out of shape horses. As I said I'm a neophyte at this, but I'm seeing the improvements and it's incredibly gratifying! Thanks you!

[@JoeLinux2000]

Nice lesson. Would you do this before getting them to lunge? or after?

[@HorsePerfect]

Thank you! I would say better after but you can also do it before if you want!

[@cevuardriddick3305]

Bro I like the saddle , Please can u help me where can I get it online ?

[@HorsePerfect]

Hey Bro! I don't know where to find good saddles online... Better to try it on the horse first if you can!

[@cevuardriddick3305]

Thank you bro. Like your Horsemanship skills very instructive. watching from Vanuatu. Espiritu Santo Island

[@HorsePerfect]

@@cevuardriddick3305 that’s awesome! Your island looks beautiful! 😍

[@Schmusan]

Nice!

[@HorsePerfect]

Thanks!

[@samw6945]

Mine will turn to my left and run if I did what you did at the start

[@HorsePerfect]

That’s interesting 😅 I wonder if anything I showed in the video could help with that?

[@marieduffoo7170]

You make it look so easy but I know it's not. I've had my horse for almost two years. He is awful trying to walk him. The minute I take him out of his stall he almost runs to grass which is directly across from his stall. He will pull and once he gets his head down to graze, I lose all control over him. If my goal was to get him to the cross ties near the tack room so I can get him tacked up to ride, it's crazy trying to get him to pick his head up and willingly walk next to me. He refuses to move which means I try to pull him while someone tries to smack his rump to make him move - all of which I know is totally wrong. Watching videos like this doesn't show me HOW to get my horse to willingly do what I ask. I can't get him to backup or walk up on command. I need to know how to get my horse do do what I see in this video because there is no way I'm going to put my guy in the round arena and have him just pay attention to what I'm asking unless I know how to make him understand and pay attention to what I want.

[@HorsePerfect]

Hi thanks for your comment! Your biggest issue is not being firm enough with your horse. I guarantee that he doesn’t see you as a strong leader so he just does whatever he likes. Instead of gently pulling ten times on the halter when he wants to eat grass you should be aggressive and direct once and pop him on the nose with the end of the lead once. Be direct and aggressive and you’ll be amazed how quickly he wakes up and listens. No more nagging and begging it’s time to tell him who’s boss. At the same time staying safe and not being in dangerous positions! So being clear and firm will mean that you won’t have to be strict often because he will listen. But you have to make it clear to him you are a good and strong leader in the partnership. Then teach him the things in my videos. All the best!

[@marieduffoo7170]

@ thank you so much! This makes perfect sense. Months ago my coach told me I will always have problems with Teddy because I treat him like a dog. I cried for hours because I thought it was an insult, but I finally realized she was telling me I spoil him rotten like I do with my dogs. Therefore, he gets away with everything and he is nothing more than a spoiled brat. I am definitely going to start showing him I am the leader of the pack!

[@annadiljaa]

Why are you tapping so aggressively? I feel like he would response to a lighter tap
