The horse is just chilling. Such a great model.

[@Montly99]

I'm glad that someone has finally come out with something that shows you how to properly tie a rope halter. I have dealt with so many people who just tie it whatever way they want to, and don't listen when you tell them what could go wrong. Also, that is one beautiful horse.

[@stephaniewinter5123]

Awesome advice Warwick, you’re such a natural... your instructions are so easy to follow and complete ... keep them coming ... thank you..

[@Donna-vh5ym]

Yess. The right way and why would ANYONE hit the thumbs down on this video. If ur not doing it like this ur doing it WRONG. thanks Warwick.

[@laus7504]

There are so many skills that I can't quite get from reading really well-written instructions, Then seeing someone demonstrate on video is the key. Stuff that simple observation communicates in a way words don't.

[@stephaniewinter5123]

lau S exactly, and he explains them so well

[@pasogirlnw]

Thank you for the great tip and I want to say this horse is SO PRETTY!!

[@CompleteHorseGirl]

Your horse is a perfect example of a brilliantly trained horse :) great video/s

[@carolley9705]

Oh THANK YOU! THIS MAKES MUCH BETTER SENSE THAN OTHER METHODS WHICH AREN'T AS LOGICAL TO ME OR THE HORSE!

[@Caylieforlife16]

Thanks, this video helped me because I have only ever dealt with standard haters and a new horse just came to our barn and she has a rope halter so now I know how to use it :)

[@KB-gx5bs]

Excellent demo!

[@missash70]

I had to do this today. So glad I watched your video! My biggest trouble was working out exactly where the ropes that make the noseband were! And somehow the knot turned out to be on the inside rather than the outside... but I did it in the dark so I think it was okay for a first attempt :)

[@sonseere10]

And also, very important, do not leave the rope halter on the horse when unattended. No exceptions.

[@henryhenry903]

sonseere10 define unattended please because rope halters are all i use and I will tie them up and go do something else fun an hour or so then go back and use them again so are you meaning that or turning them out with it on because that’s dumb with any kind halter in my mind

[@berninyberg8765]

Very nice lesson...

[@mythicalavalon]

What a beautiful horse!

[@DutchIsraeli]

Thanks! Very useful! I got obe recently but never used one before so I was kind of confused how to tie it :)

[@camrynkehrer6616]

is anybody gonna talk about this horse.. how beautiful 😍😍 such a shiny coat and a beautiful soft face.

[@hermionejaschinski7839]

Great video, watched it over and over to get it right. Question: how do you deal with a horse who grabs the halter in his mouth? It's like his face is velcro, he's been known to grab the lead rope, towels, cross ties, the ferrier. My response usually involves a brief tug of war with some hand flapping and trying to make him step back a bit. I am working on the basics and he has made great progress but this thing keeps coming back.

[@IlseEnMonticello]

I see your post is a bit older, but you can solve it quite easily. With a tug of war, it becomes sort of a game to the horse. So go in the reversed direction: when the rope is in it's mouth, pull it up towards the corners of the mouth. Not to make it hurt, but to make it uncomfortable. As soon as your horse starts spluttering, you can take it out. This way, the horse chooses to let go and gets rewarded by the rope being outside it's mouth. Also, when your basic groundwork progresses, horses tend not to do stuff like that anymore, because they become comfortable with just being there.

[@hermionejaschinski7839]

IlseEnMonticello You are right, he has gotten much better after some more groundwork. Thanks. :)

[@gratefultammy]

I had to watch this 4 times . Thank you!

[@taniagarrybrowbands8931]

thankyou!

[@carolined3058]

It helps , thanks

[@itsmylife134]

what if the horse is really tall??

[@missash70]

If you have a tall horse, watch Warick's video about getting that Arabian to put his head down. Your horse shouldn't be putting its head up, but rather putting it down and accepting the halter to be put on...

[@ilahellingson2958]

What if the horse is really tall and you can’t get your hand over their neck

[@danielromack3869]

Ilah Ellingson wear stilts

[@ILovemyhorsecharm]

That is a gorgeous palomino stallion!. U can tell he is a stallion by looking at the jowls. If they look like big chipmunks storing food like that. They are an intact stud. (Meaning fully equipped to give a baby to a mare).

[@LadyJennivieve]

You'll want to teach the horse to lower its head first.

[@daisymonty]

But when you are putting the halter on your horse, what if you can't get your arm over their head because your too short? I always have to fling it over:( good thing my horse doesn't get spooked to easy!!
