How to Train Your OTTB Part 3

[@BLT-ko8tx]

This was a great episode. I also have a OTTB, I've had him for four (almost five) years. When I first got him he new absolutely nothing!!! And so did I, I was mostly just guessing. Good to know I did almost everything right. He's now the BEST horse I have EVER ridden. We ride western pleasure, trails, and English hunt seat, jumping. He is now 9 years old. My goal for him this year is teaching him to self load in a trailer and take him off the farm to go on a real trail ride!!!!

[@michelleschroer]

time for some new breeches dom! lol those knee patches look like theyve seen better days

[@timingisperfect]

Song at the end is 10/10, caught me off gaurd and it was hilarious. Also I can't help feeling sorry for the knee patches on those breeches.... they have seen a lot of saddle time!

[@Sophiquestrian]

Could you guys do a video on introducing yourself to eventing? Love you guys! :D

[@GrammyNominee]

You should make a video about a classic format event. Like, how to prepare, how to plan for phases a,b,c,and d in cross country, what to do on roads and tracks etc. I'm doing a novice three day in a few weeks, and I'm super overwhelmed haha.

[@LaurenEades2011]

[@iloveshelly14]

[@rebeccaharsch2349]

Do y'all have a separate channel of you guys riding and competing? I think everyone here would love to see your daily rides. Lovely video as per usual :)

[@iBlingYoFace]

thank you ever so much for having me look at that website for retired standardbreds now because i found so many horses that i want to take home and i can't pay to have any of them.

[@maryanneking9855]

Super videos and great tips! Thanks so much!

[@SarahAndBee]

Brilliant series, OTTBs are so versatile I love all of mine

[@kieram5290]

This had some great tips for riding my schools ex point to point racer.

[@califreak101]

the music video was fantastic!! :)

[@xtouchofcolourx]

You should do OTT Standies next! I could use some tips to help with mine! :)

[@sylvesmiller]

Love the britches!

[@greeneyedkriswithak]

I am not Evention but i'd start by eliminating whether it is pain related or not. It could be something as simple as bad saddle fit!

[@taronsingleton9333]

Love love love your videos! Great tips and well-produced! With that said, for the love of horses...when are you gonna get some new breeches???? LOL ;-)

[@StormAndSky]

Love this! I have an ottb.

[@haloeventingvlogs2377]

Hey Dom can you do a video on injures and how to treat them. Like the common injures.

[@franzyprawnzy]

Maybe a video on helping your horse develop a nice, relaxed head carriage.

[@MultiHuddles]

Liked the vid!!

[@anyaalchemy5628]

''oh Jimmy'' haha lol

[@northeastequestrian1893]

Please make a video for green horses? Over fences especially! thanks :)

[@18shadylane]

You should make a video on buying your first horse

[@myhorsesloveeventing]

Try and find someone that would be willing to maybe lease him or free lease him, then you always know what he is doing, where he is etc. I am sure you could find a little kid that could ride him and would love and take care of him. That is what I did with my first pony

[@rf9546]

Thanks for making these videos! My one question is what about teaching the TB to stop?

[@SecretariatLover555]

When my friend rides him ( who has not been riding for long and hasn't jumped yet. ) my OTTB is 100% fine.

[@iluuvAandF]

lol you guys are great !

[@Jordanjosie123]

Please make a video on sitting the canter! I bounce around all the time!

[@SecretariatLover555]

He as only been on the track for a year. His saddle fits, he trots and on trails fine but he now jumps and he is fine but he pins his ears up and tacks off.

[@mayaleadslys]

Do a video on leasing or buying and on average the financial part of riding

[@lillygirloflove]

did you see them when the leather was flapping? Im waiting till we see holes. I remember trying to hold on to a pair of breeches, sewing them back up! But he needs to tell us what brand those are, because those have lasted all the episodes! Longer then any ive ever had.

[@brenthauck5150]

[@AmandaIrene656]

[@WhitneyDecker]

[@JumpingJill2216]

Does anyone else ottb's get excited when they hear the racing bugle?

[@Elliesbeautychannel]

Please do a saddle fitting video :)

[@iLUVozboz]

Can u do a video on just tips?

[@SecretariatLover555]

Dear evention, My horse is a great jumper and he is a OTTB but when ever i ask for a canter or jump he bucks and takes off with me how do I fix it?

[@breannakeel2274]

How would you train a horse to do some of the more complex dressage movements like the piaffe and pirouette?

[@Noodlemonkey7]

I'm going to have to sell my horse/best friend soon and start looking for another, but I'm not sure I can do it. I've had my horse for years and now he's getting too old to jump as high as i would like and I'm not sure I will Ever find a horse that fits me as well as he does, so what should I do? should I stop riding or get over everything and get a new horse???

[@MsYummyoreo]

Video on just tips

[@briannadesalaberry2419]

Do you have any tips for shortening and lengthening an OTTB's strides during jumping?

[@MonieMakeup]

Can you show me how to round a horses neck ? \ getting your horse to the bit?

[@o0Affinity0o]

haha Dom I think you need some new breeches XD

[@xDjickox]

nice breechers dom ;)

[@crypticangel6991]

i have an ottb named Rettro Desire or Rettro

[@LiveRedder]

Can I buy that on ITunes? Lol

[@emilyroberts3067]

Hi

[@mandwhy77]

You could keep your 'best friend' and see that he has a nice retirement? How old is he? You could put him on loan to someone else while you work on a new horse, at least you can try to secure his future that way.

[@Brittany1671]

How to properly get a lead change??

[@101jumpergirl101]

it's like picking up the canter. when cantering ask for the opposite lead

[@chayennebiske]

love your vid's, but you should buy a new pants ;D

[@Fiebi95]

40x20m feels like riding in a shoebox? :D That's totally normal in Germany, nearly all shows are in a 40x20m. I think it's totally okay, just jumping in a 40x20 isn't that great :/

[@samgalipeau6425]

I'm a hunter, I don't know what he's talking about in the dressage

[@Eliseelise903]

[@anniebananie553]

Step one: don't buy an OTTB.
