Breaking horses is born out of a typical male attitude that an animal needs it's spirit breaking by rough domination into.submission to except humans and although some do better kinder.techniques these days like yourselves do with your horses . Starting and backing horses is a more accurate term to get horses to except being groomed and ridden and harnessed for carriage and cart driving , you do so great with your horses it shows as Frieda and Eefje has good nature and learn to be comfortable quickly with new experiences they will excel in all the equine disciplines especially Freida a real show mare.🐎

[@FriesianHorses]

So I can better can it, backing horses? I don't know the translation that well 😅

[@randyrick8019]

many American wild mustangs are now made rideable via gentler methods than the traditional rodeo 'breaking' and it seems to yield a horse that is better in all ways, much of the time. I will offer the channel of a Colorado 'reinsman' who demonstrates his techniques kzbin.info/door/1ChUgHltLfoo0Oq90icamQ

@@FriesianHorses breaking, backing, or starting a horse mean the same thing. Backing or Starting have a gentler, kinder connotation in English.

@@isabellepanza9403 Thank's Isabelle. Very interesting to learn because in French we've got only one word, whichever method is used, and it's awful : débourrer! And "bourré" means drunk in street slang! So french people sober young horses up 🤔

[@noelle7714]

Watch Monty Roberts it’s amazing how he trains horses, he’s very gentle, his father trained the “old” way and he decided to be different and he got much better results. Watch the 3 part video when he said he wanted to capture and break a wild horse in 3 days and he did it. Amazing. I hope I explained that correctly it’s been a while since I’ve watched it.

[@Sonic-dogmagic]

A good way of training, a little at a time, gentle repetition and affectionate praise as the horses learn. Much less traumatic than seeing how wild rodeo type horses are broken. Every animal and child in this world deserves to learn this way and develop trust and companionship with caring people. Reminds me of my 3rd grade teacher, who practiced firm but caring teaching and always made her students feel important and special and made learning enjoyable, even if we weren't perfect.

[@cherrybarb4651]

Building trust through gentleness and fairness is the key for any animal. These horses never feel the need to escape or defend themselves. Lovely.

[@lee-annek6969]

That was so interesting. In a big horse like that I would think good temperament would be a major factor when breeding.

[@susans3320]

I love how quiet and respectful your hands are with the horses. No wonder they are so calm and willing to try something new. Not once did I hear a raised voice either. I love the small step approach in letting them get used to things. When the horse bolted towards the arena I love how you simply just turned the horse around and didn't raise your voice. You gave the horse time to process what was happening and then to think it through.

[@animehuntress9018]

I think this is pretty big testament to how well dispositioned Friesians can be. Not all horses are the same and all breeds have their quirks, but watching these guys take this with pretty calm demeanors was a treat. I've seen horses flip over having a saddle pad placed on their backs even though they have worn and are familiar with blankets. I've also seen a Clydesdale stand quietly munching on treats while being groomed and then saddled for the first time. Really some breeds are just amazing with how quiet and calm they can be. All horses can flip and get scared but its really amazing how some breeds stand out for how quiet they usually are.

[@judycook4314]

They certainly respond so well to your way of training and grooming. It’s enjoyable to watch their progress from first being tied up in the stall for 5 or 10 minutes when quite young, to this and more!

[@ingridblohm-hyde805]

Actually, after watching these videos for a long time now, I see that Yvonne trains the horses from the start. She holds her hand out when they are just one or two days old to get them used to being friends. When they are a little older I see them with halters in the pasture. They are constantly gently handled. This is all part of training a horse. The more structured training starts around 3 years old, which is the right time to do so.

[@dogperson2887]

3 years old is just a huge toddler, but these ones have such good well bred temperaments that there is no toddler tantrums. The humans give them time to think in their learning process, nothing is rushed, and the horses accept willingly because it is all done with kindness and respect.

[@dogperson2887]

I noticed that the horses have their hay rations outside of their stall, the doors are lower so the horses can "graze" the hay. In England horses usually have a hay net hung up inside their stable. I think maybe this outside the front door method should be adopted over here, at a glance you can see how much hay your horse has got through, without having to stick your head in to look inside the stall, which young and nervous horses are not used to. Also, haynets can be a danger to a horse if it manages to get it unhooked from the wall, possibly getting a hoof caught in it and getting tangled up, which would be terrifying for a young prey animal thinking it had one of its legs caught. Also, if your horse had stopped munching the hay, and the pile was untouched for a couple of hours I would be going to check horse for possible colic. Loved the mini door for the little Shetland to reach.
