Do you take people with you to learn to be a trainer? I would love to learn from you.

[@RiccBallard]

Just found your channel, loving it. I had a young colt like this years ago, we called him Hotfoot. The nickname stuck so be careful with those nicknames. 😉

[@andrewhunter9770]

A very important tutorial for me - thank you. Yesterday my horse kicked me by pawing when I stopped on our way to the barn to talk to a passenger. Today my horse and I will meet again and start some lessons on good behaviour.

[@glynisport8067]

I am his breeder. We called him Hawkeye. His sire's barn name is Radar. I don't own his sire.

[@ryanrosehorsemanship]

Cool, thanks for sharing. Excellent horse 👍👌

[@ryanrosehorsemanship]

Keep breeding great horses, I’d buy more like him any day

[@twade909]

And with his character, hawkers suits him 😅 🤣🤣 spell autocorrect. Meant Hawkeye but Hawkers works too. 🤣🤣

I bought a mare that was turned out and lost in a flood. She was breed during this time and now has a filly that looks like that colt. Same color and markings.

Siily Guy.. When first tied up, he started to nibble on the tie rope, while keeping a cautious eye on Ryan... He seems like a nice horse... Lots of personality..

I like these kind of bold ones because they are not overly skittish but they are still paying attention and learning.

[@keradee8742]

Radar is the obvious name to me. Thank you for showing people the right way to tie a horse. I have seen so many videos of horses being tied low. That is just an accident waiting to happen.

Hello Shelly how’s the weather over there

[@trishisaacson5668]

My now 4 year old is just like this 2 year old - playful, opininated and hates to be tied! Paws his own grave out when tied lol but I'm glad to find this video and thank you! My trainer prefers to leave them tied for hours and hours and I don't agree with it , so now I have a new way to work with him - thank you again

[@lillyjade8733]

This guy is amazing I hate people who try to make the horse scared of them to listen instead of making them respect you and not beating them and whipping them this guy here is really good and knows what he is doing

[@ryanrosehorsemanship]

Thanks 👍

[@OnceUponaTimeline]

Hehe, yeah I think strategic pestering is more effective whenever possible. You want them to respect you but yet also to still trust you, there's a balance there and the balance point is different for each horse. But if you want them to work as a team member, you need to maintain trust and a feeling of you being their protector. If you push them too hard, then you lose their trust and they have a long memory.

[@bill2953]

@@ryanrosehorsemanship In the event @lillyjade8733 knows people that treat their horse like that she'd better a(have a serious talk with them or b) report their ass to the nearest shelter or animal control.

[@barbaragreene6592]

For my babies n young horses, when I tie them in an arena or in the barn n if they may b ties for awhile, I place a solid rubber ball, size of soccer ball that they can play with. I just hang the ball so that the ball can swing. This gives the colts something to do besides chew or paw. Young horses are like small children they need something to do n keep them entertained. I also hang a ball in their stalls to give them something to do. They can bat it around with their head n mouth. It makes for a happier horse.

[@lennoxlepage1742]

I can’t believe some of the things people allow their horses to get away with on the ground. They’re so dangerous. Good ground manners are a must even before the saddle work begins. Love these videos thanks for sharing them!!

Ryan, this is a very valuable lesson. I have seen horses mentally and physically ruined by forcing them to stand tied. Attitude: I'll teach him a lesson! It is so sad, all power and no brains. Do you still have that horse? I love your teaching videos. I wish that you were in Canada 🇨🇦.

[@walterhenslee6123]

Our haflinger mare pawed a lot so we taught her to do math and guess the ages of visiting children. she only gets rewarded when we ask, never for random pawing. Of course she also plays a keyboard with her lips, rolls beach balls and has done demos at lots of venues. She is now 23. Not poking fun at your excellent video but just couldn't resist.

[@mycrazyaklife]

Love those mischievous looks he gave you when you weren't looking.

[@farmershonor]

Radar is a great name. Suits him. Your videos are excellent. Thank you for your amazing horsemanship skills.

[@thatstheteasis3740]

the way he looks at the camera is so adorable

[@jessepitt]

That horse reminds me of mine in his behavior. He’s always been a very curious horse who constantly fiddles with things. He also paws in certain situations. I’m definitely going to use this technique to address that. I really like his curiosity tho, I feel like he is a better worker and companion because of it. He likes doing new stuff because he gets bored with old things.

[@beverleymarcum7600]

[@yvonneost12]

My messing with horses is way past now but your methods are good , there is no hard and fast rules each one is different and should be taught different ways to suit that horse , his ways etc . There is no right and wrong way but my method was always try to think like they do and have " patience " you'll end up with a bomb proof horse that is bonded well to you and it makes it so much fun when you finally get them doing the right thing because they actually want to ..I am enjoying your videos.

[@YouTubeWatcher29]

I do not know a thing about horses besides what I have learned watching the last 10+ videos that I've come to enjoy seeing in my suggested videos. Super interesting.

[@swhatley13111]

Impressive. I have a 16 yr old quarter horse who is a Hurricane Harvey rescue. I am told she was found wrapped up in a wire fence up to her neck in water. Some days she will stand and other days she pulls the fence down and the concreted posts out of the ground. She was trained as a heel horse just before I got her but she has a few hang- ups. I don't know anything about calming minerals- which would you suggest? FYI- she has a forever home here in our non-profit, if nothing else I will just leave her out in the pasture.

Rad is what I might call him. You are both gorgeous! Great work and exactly on point, I love seeing him eye the tie location when he understood why you were working him, and was ready to try again and that you read his desire and asked for it in just the spot to get the best timing from him on his response. His confirmation is so lovely.

Went to a clinic in the fall and realized both geldings I brought were both fidgety to stand still on the end of the rope (and in the saddle) with me just standing there listening to the clinician. I came home with more issues than I thought we had.... Will have to put this technique to work.

[@rooirand100]

Tom Dorrance’s idea has worked great for me. Funny when i tell people what Tom did they just kind of discount it with “that won’t work” but, it does work. I had a horse who would paw the door when he was stalled and would paw inside and outside of the trailer. I don’t think it took more than 3 sessions before he was quiet wherever he was and i never left my chair. I just quit telling folks about it because they give me sideways looks and won’t do it anyway.

[@tracyjohnson5023]

Good technique with a QH because they wear out. With hotter horses, like Paso finos and TB, sorry but this technique teaches them that they get attention from person when they paw lol. Great job with the high tie. I tie all of mine like this. For youngsters or horses that have learned to suck back and break halters or snaps, I tie to the old stand by, the inner tube! But you're right they have to already know to give to pressure! I always use a rope halter and a lead rope without a snap too. Many just panic when they hit the end of the give and suck back so the inner tube solves that issue. I also use homemade tie blocker with a carabiner to tie up in the trailer and at horse shows because there's give but no getting loose.

[@Coolcmsc]

Hmmmmm…. Maybe….. I don’t know all those breeds very well, so I defer to you. But this is, as always and as you point out, always about a simple choice. In this case work vs release from work. If you are saying those breeds regard asking for work is their natural way of achieving release, then, I see why you might be correct. In the U.K., the breeds we see most don’t choose work as an opportunity for calm release - unless of course the rest of their day is being poorly managed.

Hi Ryan! Long time no hear:) I see this behavior in many horses as a way to communicate with us. Stating either hurry up or I don't want to. I worry about hoof bruising though in mine. She has picked this up by watching the other horses and she has bruised her hoof doing so.

I really like his personality, nice, funny, playful horse. Good lesson, well explained. Thank you! How about Rascal as his barn name...

[@staciamarie8458]

This is so helpful! I’m riding a really impatient mare and it’s been difficult getting her tacked and untacked in the barn...but I can’t “run her around” in the barn aisle when she paws and gets impatient (sometimes she will even rear up!) If I work on this with her in the arena will the concept start to transfer to her barn manners?? She is usually out with the herd 24/7 so my guess is she’s impatient to get back outside with her friends...from what I’m told she has learned that some people would put her back outside if she acts up badly enough

[@mackenzierobinson3035]

you could always carry your tack and gear to the arena and get her ready in there so you have room to move her around and she associates it with the context of getting tacked up, then move back to prepping in the barn and see if she improves.

[@staciamarie8458]

@@mackenzierobinson3035 this is what I’m hoping will work!! I’ve also started just putting her in a stall with some hay while I get my stuff together before and after so she still has to be in the barn before and after riding as a routine

I have a young gelding like this. Someone started letting him have his little fits for an hour then saddling before I got him. I have been lunging first. If he starts again, we go right back out to lunge. Then we saddle and ride like a gentleman.
