This training is so important. Horses with potentially dangerous behaviors that were never corrected can find themselves in the kill pen no matter how gorgeous or well bred they are. Can't wait to see more videos of your progress with him!

Yes you are exactly right. I'll have another video of him out soon.

Gosh I learn something new every time I watch you. I always groomed first then worked my horse…now I will work first, groom afterward. You have helped so many of us. I enjoy watching and listening to you so much.

[@lisaweinberger4197]

Thank you for adding the comments directly on the screen and slowing the video to show the behavior and the reprimand together. It definately aids the learning process. Your skills are really amazing to watch! Thank you for this fantastic video!

[@1ccTooTall]

Really great explanation of the gradation of correction. I’m going to show this to a student who always is reluctant to go to demand. It explains why my horse will very happily do what I ask but gradually gets balky with her. She has fantastic hands and seat, but I think this is the one message that will unlock her full potential. Leadership!

[@krystaldaniels7940]

I don’t know you but I feel like you were talking about ME in your comment lol. If your student is like me, it’s a fear that creeps in making me reluctant to demand. My wild eyed mare charged at me one time in the round pen and that was all it took for that fear to set up shop in my brain. For me, it helps to see someone else make my mare behave and then I feel more confident stepping in and doing exactly what they did.❤

[@jarjar0653]

I love the way you talk us through what you and horse are doing. It’s fantastic Thank you

[@JessAnnLightRiver]

Thank you for your videos, they have been helping me overcome issues I have never dealt with! My husband is a natural rider, he sits a horse amazingly. All our horses now, (even my old retired horse) have become rude on the ground. I correct it but then in short order, they are in my space again. After listening to your videos, I see some behaviors my husband has been allowing and it is definitely causing the issues. My husband was never raised around horses so explaining how to "read" them is difficult for me. Your videos are excellently explaining cause and affect. By the way, some of us appreciate you not pushing negative behavior for the viewers benefit!!!

[@kidstuff44555]

Horses that whinney, constantly look to the outside of the circle and ignore your directions are very likely going to run over the top of you at some point, because you're just a distraction they don't care about. The saying "as much as necessary" when it comes to how much pressure to apply means exactly that; as much as necessary to get their attention on you, and to regard you as important and not a trivial annoyance. If you can't be that leader to them, then don't handle them, because they'll end up hurting you

[@christyhoff9254]

I had a horse like that. It's so important that you don't ever let him get away with what he wants to do instead of what you're asking of him. Love that you are always consistent in your cues. That way he learns to know what to expect and is never surprised by them. He will eventually become more respectful and do what you ask without complaining or threatening you. Horses are looking for a leader and if the person doesn't lead and is not consistent in what they ask, the horse will become the leader. I absolutely love the way you work with horses. Thank you for caring for them to take the time and patience to work through their problems and lack of training to make them good respectful usable horses.❤

[@horsecrazy7655]

He is very disrespectful and you were giving him plenty of opportunities to choose the right thing but he was ignoring you and could care less about anything you were asking him he needed exactly what you gave him, and thanks for talking us through this one cause he had all kinds of tricks up his sleeve, great teaching tool video!

[@lauracox4009]

You are smart to find the holes in his training and make sure he doesn't run you over. This horse has been spoiled and he has made people afraid of him. You can tell after 10 minutes he is getting irritated about the work (pinning ears, looking out) and thinking he can intimidate you.. Good going to keep sending him forward!

It’s unusual that he’s a Morgan and I didn’t recognize it in him at all. I owned a Morgan from 9 mos. until he passed away. He was a strong beautiful horse but had a little stubborn streak sometimes.

Interesting content definitely has me wondering if I'm a bit too aggressive. I would have lit him up pretty hard for that, you were a lot more diplomatic.

I appreciate your kindness. I'm curious why you cut him so much slack in staying bent to the outside. Do you incorporate this further in your program? He seems like he is not paying attention to you except the bare minimum. He reminds me of off track TBs who have been "handled" not trained. They may be a Grade I stakes winner, but on the ground they don't even see you and plow right over you.

[@melancollie9597]

This is brilliant ❤ big thanks .

[@jimgrogan9833]

Looks and behaves like an Arab to me Tim. It might be a comment of the stereotypical sort, but I can see my one (the only one I had ever owned) in him, sometimes you wonder if you need to be so tough on them but it doesn't take long for the consequences to sneak up on you if you are not. You're doing a good job waking us up to what is actually going on with some of these horses. Jim - New Zealand

[@daphnewilson7966]

Doggonit, NZ and Australia have many strange critters, but there just isn't a buckskin Arabian! A real Arab would have figured out this program fast and nice. Guy wouldn't have had to doodle around all that time. Jeesh!

[@thedirtprincess3293]

Arabian was my first guess but i think there is something else there too.

[@judycook4314]

He definitely was not paying attention to you. He appears to be a little high-strung with a lot to say, but also intelligent. I like the way you handled him. Was there a final answer on his breed or mix? He reminds me of an Arabian but his tail doesn't fit. His head and trot do not appear to be Andalusian. He's a gorgeous boy whatever he is! Maybe Morgan? I'll look for a follow-up video.

[@timandersonhorsetraining]

Yes he is a Morgan.

[@kseniyacharba8401]

I believe he could be part Arab blood. He looks just like one of the horses at my dressage riding school. The owner breeds a lot of Arab blood and half blood.

[@ilaria3864]

Beautiful video, I wish my horse was trained by someone like you, I had a lot of issues (now almost totally solved) with him. I see you lounge them in a quite small circle, isn't it dangerous if they side kick? I was hurt a couple of times that way and I like a wider circle😅

[@auggiedoggiesmommy1734]

What are your thoughts on newer theories about not stalling horses, essentially that there’s no need and it’s healthier for them?

[@timandersonhorsetraining]

That's not new, that thought has been around for a long time. I think for personal horses that is a good idea. For trainers it is very impractical. That would mean at least a half acre paddock for each horse in training plus spacing between paddocks. The three issues would be maintenance of all that fence, cutting grass between all those paddocks, and the time needed to walk all the horses in to ride and back out. That additional expense would have to be passed to the owners and they would not be willing to pay the extra.

[@emerwatchorn6971]

Yes and training is only a short term situation.

[@arribaficationwineho32]

Of course horses are better not stalled. It is for the convenience of man, not the nature of horses

My horses love to be stalled when it’s hot outside and the flies are bothering them. They have their own fans. They go back outside when our cattle get up and start grazing.
