You have to support this video because this girl took 4 YEARS creating a single video, she deserves more support than she has 😢❤❤

[@iclynnx]

The clip where Banksy whinnies back at your "hi little man!" will forever be scratched into my brain 😊 Rest in peace to Mickey Finn ❤

[@SMG4S_BIGGEST_FAN]

Wait the mother died.

[@iclynnx]

@@SMG4S_BIGGEST_FAN Yeah, Banksy's second mom after his biological one rejected him has passed away.

This is the PERFECT example of horse raising, you dont need to take a baby away from its mother to 'imprint' or have a relationship with it! ^_^ I love this!

[@jhepadidaymaypamoa5172]

I discovered you through this video and I have to say, I wasn't expecting to see so little riding and such care. This is so beautiful to see how you have actually built a relationship with the horse, not just raised him to carry you around. I'm sure riding would be as fun for you as it would be for him with such loving upbringing. Thank you for sharing your story !

[@pine4090]

Wow, so crazy he is 4!! Rip Mickey, she seemed like such a sweet mare. Thanks for being a great stand in mumma for Banksy! ♥️

[@foreversolvent5334]

The choice in music had me feeling like something bad was going to happen. Having said that, this was such a wholesome and heartwarming video. Thoroughly enjoyed it in it's entirety. Beautiful upbringing. He's so lucky to have such a caring family.

[@ldirk58601]

This was so sweet to watch. If every horse had a life like Banksy they would all be so happy. He may need a ball or two for entertainment he is so smart! Thank you for putting this together. Great job on the video and the horse.

[@pjk1714]

Beautiful time lapse. Just heart warming. Sorry you lost your mare. She kept him safe. Appreciate you sharing his story.

[@suehelms906]

Banksy has turned into a stunning horse with a whole lot of personality :-) I think this has got to be one of my all time favorites watching him from baby to adult! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@The-ii5mj]

I'm in my 50's, live in Tx & have seen every type of training horses....until now. I've never been in favor of treats for train but it works (beautifully I might add)❣️ You're young so please don't let anyone ever tell u that you're doing it wrong‼️ Lovely video & lovely, handsome horses🐴💓✌️

[@Dianelee999]

I remember the run-in with the fence when he was a foal 😂 and nurse mare, Mickey Finn was so wonderful with him (RIP💜) and Gentleman George was his good friend (RIP💜) Now he is strapping and glowing with health, calm at your questions and answers. Well done, Shelby & Mom 🌈💜🇺🇸

[@UdanAkam]

The :-)(^^

[@th0rne_999]

Both so majestic and goofy. I don't know a lot about horses, but I feel like I understand a bit better after this vid. What a precious soul. Especially loved the clips of him just resting on your lap for cuddles.

[@Swimkid1]

What a wonderful story you shared with us. Thank you very much. I can’t tell you how happy I became when it transpired that you did not use pain compliance on your beautiful horse and friend. It appears important to you that you ride using your skills - rather than forcing your horse to have a big iron bit in his mouth in order to do as he's told. I loved this video and I’m so pleased and proud of you, thanks once again. A brilliant horsey / a brilliant video! Now I witness you not using bits and spurs etc. as pain compliance, I am going to subscribe and watch all of your channel with much interest and fun. Nice one, Dave UK x

[@lesligoulette4555]

He is so BEAUTIFUL ❤ you have done a great job working with him. I had a pony when I was a kid that would sleep with me like that! You have brought back some wonderful memories for me 🎉

[@jennielaw6329]

4yrs old and never had a hand or voice raised to him 🤗 Thankyou Shelby for sharing his journey 😊

[@wonderscall6486]

I think this my new favorite KZbin video. What a an awesome horse and awesome owner.

[@urszularudzinska8188]

Banksy will always be special to me from a viewer's standpoint as I started following your channel just before he was born. I've watched both of you grow, learn and blossom into your beautiful selves 💗 Great job raising him, Shelby. Can't waito to see what future holds for you two!

[@starson1]

He's so intelligent. He's so spontaneous. His people have made him a trusting horse...and .that's wonderful!

[@erinprovancha4293]

He has grown up to be a real beauty. Fun to watch his personality as he grows up. Thanks for this video. Very nice.

[@natashaelina]

This video made me smile the whole time! What a beautiful and special thing to raise a horse from birth!

[@louiseregan2498]

He's a beauty. The boss of his herd since he was young, but oh, does he love his humans. Liked how you trained him, you were very patient and gave him a lot of positive reinforcement. He has a floating trot and he's handsome to boot. Congratulations.

[@allysmith2284]

He couldn’t have “landed” into a better home I have so enjoyed watching his journey!! Congrats on having such a stunning home bred

[@BabyShenanigans]

I can't believe it's been 4 years already! Seems like just yesterday he was a yearling.

[@ninakaiser2930]

So touching to see snippets of the story again as I have been there from the start. That the nursing mare passed on somehow really hit me - even though she was 30. she did so amazing with Banksy. Looking forward to see more of your amazing journey together. 😊

[@begonebegone7825]

Magnificent, sweet boy. You did a fabulous job with him!! Congrats and many happy, healthy, years together!!🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️

[@rexmejares4120]

Thank you for loving these lives. You taught a lot of people how beautiful and precious are God's creations. Keep sharing your videos and God bless❤

[@sidilicious11]

Great footage! He was handsome at every age. It’s so gratifying to see that he’s always had playmates. You’ve done so well with him!

[@patriciaflood8874]

This is the third or fourth time I’ve watched this video. I never get tired of watching it. He’s such a beautiful boy and your relationship is amazing. His trot looks so smooth. Please keep posting updates.

[@kristawilson718]

I just have to say that this video is the most emotional horse and owner story that will be forever! He's your heart horse for sure! I literally cried thru out because just the tenderness between you two! And THEN, Poco and Banksy lay their head on one another??!!! Unreal❤😅 I lost it!! Thank you for the good tears!! What a Star you have raised! Well done, sweetheart! Well done!...👏👏👏👏👏👏 ❤🐎❤ I did want to ask, what happened to his mom? Where is she? Why do u think, she rejected him?

[@Dianelee999]

I remember that she was a maiden mare, Banksy being her first foal. So it was not unheard of for a maiden to reject the foal. Bad luck. 🤔

[@mousiebrown1747]

What a lively, “springy” young pony/horse, and oh! So beautiful!❤😊

[@janetgallo5720]

He hast to be the funniest horse I’ve ever seen. I don’t mean funny looking, I mean his personality. He’s funny. He’s got a great sense of humor.

[@Snek_goes_Blep]

Awww Banksy is so beautiful *cries* I miss my horse...she was 47 years old she was my Aunt/Cousins horse and kinda became mine...I miss her everyday

[@paulaaaa27]

oh my heart 🥺 how i wish all horses got to grow up and live like that. If I ever have enough money, I'm following in your footsteps for sure! Thank you for being here for the horses and showing how even riding can be done with so much compassion from the human and actual enjoyment from the horse. Thank you for showing how to put them first.

[@grammeatticus2172]

What a magnificent horse he is! Your relationship is simply lovely.

[@smurfettefreedom2650]

What an inspiring video - not one of your followers - this just popped up on my wall. Some great ideas in there for confidence building and training. So lovely to see how your hard work gave such an amazing result.

[@dreamcatcher3861]

Wow, what a beautiful boy and such a moving video. I’m a new subscriber, I truly wish I’d found you 4 years ago when Banksy was born, I feel I’ve missed the journey in time with you, I’ll go back and watch your story from the start though. I love how gentle you are with your horses, I love the respect you give them and I love that you’re empathic. Thank you for sharing your horses and life with us. I’m going to enjoy this channel very much.

[@diamondwhite1]

It shows he has bonded with his owner and clearly can’t be separated as he shows her so much love and the cuddles have never stopped 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

I’d forgotten how golden he was as a baby!

Can't believe it's been 4 years of Banksy!! He's grown up so much. I've loved following your progress together! 💕

Omg- LITTERALLY THE CUTEST FOAL CLIPS I HAVE SEEN TODAY!

[@coreywest1183]

Banksey has really developed into a handsome boy! I love that he has retained his sweet personality and his sence of humor.

[@diane9071]

You have such an amazing bond with all the horses, thankyou for sharing your wonderful journey, hope all are safe during this devastating fire situation,

[@waltraudwohrle985]

[@vcalland]

This is a wonderful video. Great introduction to desensitization techniques too. ❤

[@joannesmartens9442]

He was and still is so funny and sweet.😊

[@miarobv]

Honey is so sweet & such a beautiful color. I am betting that she is pregnant. Your son in law is a hoot. Love the exposed training secret. 🤣🤣🤣. In a way he’s right. The more things a horse is exposed to the less likely they will freak out about that while being ridden. The grandson in the mud made me smile. It’s good for the kids too 🤣

[@BelleTeteRouge07]

Dawww i loved seeing the grow up video with George and Mickey too. They were such good horses 💜

[@sheilagilleland4312]

He’s absolutely perfect.

[@marimationsowo]

new subscriber because of this lil boy. he is so cute and i love his relationship with Pogo🥹

[@piakiby1566]

Great video. He is a cutie. Don't ever let him go.

[@unrulycrow6299]

Omg I was already following you for a while, when I had the honour of being among the witnesses of Banksy's birth! Rest in peace Mickey, you awesome mama girl! Seeing Banksy all grown up and handsome now makes me tear up, he's been having such a bright life and it shows in his confidence

[@kimcentofanti2694]

Such beautiful face markings. RIP Mickey Finn and thank you ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jay10.274]

Stunning boy! Well done!

Why is this so adorable

[@kiradeki3561]

Banksy's such a gorgeous gelding.

[@thissunchild]

What beautiful majestic creatures ♥️

[@SaraPalmer-gh4eq]

You clearly have happy horses. This encourages me so. I appreciate the mix of both human with horse i and horse to horse. Time to allow more play with my 6 yr old especially. We have been together since last October. It has taken some time to gain trust and tender moments between us but we are well on the way. Need to get our 4 home! Appreciate the stable but home is just different.

[@michellegarry1872]

Ok, who’s cutting onions! 🥲 Absolutely beautiful video! Thank you! This made my day.

Very cute. Even when they grow big, they still remain cuddly babies for a long time.

[@GilraenTook]

Here's to dozens more 💖

[@melissawalker3874]

I can't believe I've been following him for four years. Sad to hear his second mom passed away. I always wondered if his mother was bred again. I can't wait to see Banksy written for the first time.

[@kakafarid6632]

Amazing❤
