ORMONDE in Action! Watch This!

[@kimmcalister3594]

King’s Guard horses and soldiers are so patient with the public. Ormonde is my favorite-reminding everyone he is here to work, not pose for silly pictures.

[@daffydill5590]

I've noticed Ormonde doesn't bother people, until they get into his personal space, in a certain spot in his peripheral vision ❤ Great horse!

[@Lizzie-h3j]

Or when they run straight at him there's a way to approach a horse and that isn't it. Flat ears means he is pissed so leave him alone.

[@Михаил-б6ю3ю]

Ормонд умница и красавчик, очень чувствует людей и отталкивает бесцеремонных и тупых туристов

[@slaniceanumagdalena5909]

Ormonde ești f frumos. Te iubesc. Cind te deranjează cite un nesimțit da i un cap sa se îndepărtează. Musca. SUNT NESIMTITI. Nu știu sa citească ca nu au voie sa facă poze și sa te atingă.???

Ich bin erschrocken über Touristen, die keinen Respekt vor der Garde oder den klugen Pferden haben. Aber die intelligenten Vierbeiner wissen, wie man die dummen Zweibeiner in ihre Grenzen weist. Kleinen Kindern gegenüber sind sie aber großzügig und duldsam. Prächtige und kluge Vierbeiner!

Ormonde is a gelding, therefore a male. I just watched a video where there could be absolutely no mistaked on that! I don't normally check the undercarriage of the horses but that was hard to miss as he left the box for guard change!! Everyone I watch for horse guards has always referred to him as he or him. Those guards are very good at their jobs. When they see a child, watch their rein hand. You will see that they have gripped the reins and are on alert when a child, particularly one who is unaccompanied. Most people do not even notice. The horses are trained to respond to their rider.

The fact that she rarely attacks children is testament to her intelligence that she detect the difference in threat level. I see the same guard on her each time.

Ormonde is quite discerning. Have you noticed he doesn't go after babies or strollers. He does seem to have a certain spatial awareness that he protects quite diligently. With the new "Dont touch the horse" signs he should give the other horses lessons in "spatial awareness" titled When it's ok to bite idiots.

That horse may have a sense of humour because intelligent animals seem to have a sense of humour. My old work dog played a prank on me one day. I was leaning against my ute (dog caged in the back) talking to one of the workers. I was guarding a gate. We had been chatting for about 10min so the dog was perfectly comfortable in his cage. SUDDENLY he let out this MASSIVE bark and SMASHED into the cage door. I jumped about 12 inches in the air, spun around and saw my dog standing up with a large canine smile, sparkling eyes, and a wagging tail as if to say "GOTCHA". The worker thought it was hilarious what MY working dog did to ME. I let him win that one. Naughty dog.
