Shocking Twist! What Happened the Moment My Foal Stepped into the Paddock?!

Hey Horse Lovers! Today Ariel is LEAVING THE STALL and heading outside into the paddock for the first time ever! Will she trust me enough to lead out of the stall? How will she react to her new environment being outside with Bagheera? This shocking twist of events will leave you on the edge of your seat. The unexpected happened while taking her out, but in the end it all worked out! How will Ariel react to the other horses? What will the other horses think of her? Especially Belle & Ezzy! Watch to see! During this video we will show you how she goes about her first day being outside and you will get to see her settle in and explore her new environment. She has made so much progress and I'm very proud of her. IF YOU ENJOY MY CONTENT SUBSCRIBE!
ARIEL THE BAY ROAN FILLY: She is a 5-Month-old weanling who was imported from a Ranch in Manitoba, Canada. She is a Brabant, Percheron, QH X and her color is BAY ROAN. She was completely unhandled when we purchased her 2.5 weeks ago from the filming of this video. I will be working with her then introducing her to BELLE & EZZY once she is ready.

Ariel was not shy with the other horses. She stood her ground. You could see her confidence grow especially after the welcoming committee was so friendly!! BLESSINGS

[@angelpony1657]

Loved it!!! 😇💕

[@Anonymous-im9ob]

Why am I sad. Happy, but sad! She’s being SO BRAVE and so little! Sweet girl has been through so much, but she’s handling it like a champ. She’s going to LOVE this new life!

[@GiggleSnorts]

And that's the thing, you can see how much love goes into those horses when they reflect what their humans give them, nothing but the love that they deserve.

Ariel didn't know whether to be more excited about the sunshine and space to run or the realization that she could see a herd that she could belong to again. Her joy was so evident! Her flagged trot just makes my heart smile. ❤️

[@beachtimedays]

Ask Kyle to slam the gate a few more times while Ariel is outside and she’ll become “desensitized” The more she’s outside, she’ll get used to people, places and things and she won’t get so easily “spooked”

[@amandacawley9447]

Aeriel looks amazing, she has filled out. She looks so different compared to when you first saw her at the horse auction, all timid and nervous. She know she's home. ❤❤❤❤😊

Sometimes things don't go as planned, but they almost always work out! It was magical watching you lead Ariel out of her stall and into the paddock! You guys handled the unexpected bits very well! It's amazing watching her run around and how all the other horses come to meet her. Absolutely heart melting!!

[@TheFairyNina]

@@freespiritequestrian amazing job as always Shae, you are so adaptable and its evident just how much love and care and above all HARD WORK you put in these beautiful horses. Gosh, Bagheera is such an underrated horse I think by many; she is so helpful and magical. To see things work out like this when you picked her up you could've never anticipated this.. im in awe. You are wonderful

[@samgould9930]

Please wear glove and a hat while dealing with youngsters

[@susanfreeman9500]

Finally. It made me tear up to see Ariel able to run and hop about. That's how hard it was for her to be stalled in quarantine. Your senior horses proved how valuable they are. Jiminy and Bagheera are practically employees.

[@fleetskipper1810]

I like that-they ARE just like dependable employees.

[@tynn1579]

You are so right. I love Jiminy, early on I was drawn to Apps with color but big jumpers and had the first "color" hunter in my area.

[@calista1280]

How exciting and fun to finally see Ariel in a big arena and free to move out. She looks to have nice, smooth, flowy gaits! Your heart must be so full! ❤

[@lesliemoore1656]

Bagheera is so patient, a great horse nanny. Ariel is so happy to have freedom and to finally meet the other horses. Jiminy is hilarious, Mushu is such a sweet boy. Ezzie is so excited to have a buddy her age. Good you filmed how being alert is so important and how unpredictable horses can be. You and Kyle are a great team. Glad everything went so well.

[@flashgordon6510]

Seeing the other horses' excitement to meet her was so sweet! And it seems like Belle recognizes a friend. Great progress!

[@Cozycountry1]

You can't plan for every eventuality, but keeping alert as you did, Shae, is a must around equines. Ariel doing zoomies was magical and getting out her energy after the quarantine. Jiminey is a big old daftie and has to know everything as the herd leader, but Mushy showed what a sweet boy he is and was very calm with Ariel. Bagheera is the best Aunty to these foals. Belle and Ezzy looked very curious and Ezzy was in awe there is another one around her size. Cannot wait for them to be put in together and hope it goes well. ❤

[@jessicaoppegard6578]

Ezzys reaction was so cute ❤❤❤

[@sheilasmith5481]

As someone else referred to the moments you lead areal from her stall, the time was so exciting and magical!! Also, I was flipping out at how many horses crowded, at one time, to see and visit Areal. So many horses seemed so excited to meet her!! What an experience to witness!!

[@jeaniLovesAnimals]

Jiminy claimed Ariel for himself..❤️ It's so cute the individual personalities of each horse towards her. She's fitting right in. 🌟Now, let the new adventures begin! 🌟 Can't wait to see what happens next..💕 ❤️🙋🏼‍♀️🐈🐕

[@kalayne6713]

Well done, Shae for not being spooked when Ariel was. We forget horses are prey animals, or a panic attack on four legs and can be so easily scared but she recovered so well, too. Seeing that tail held high as she ran with joy was a delight. Looking forward to this journey with all the horses.Blessings from Australia.

[@law7897]

Thanks Shae. The moment we have all been waiting for, seeing Ariel out in the sunshine, running around. And sweet Auntie Bagheera is a lovely calming influence xx

[@maximtitan5504]

Those little leaps of joy were fun to watch. Bagheera on babysitting duty is too good; she's so calm and assured, she gives young horses the right vibes.

[@kimhannan4892]

Bagheera is so awesome! What a great auntie to the young fillys!

[@cherylhillskemper7564]

There's really nothing like a good solid mare to show the younger ones how to be grounded.

[@dorcaswatson4873]

I love how Ariel just kicked up her heels and danced all around. It made my heart ❤️ sing when she was nuzzling and chirping with Jiminie. It looks like she doesn't really care less if Baggerah is there or not 😮. I am hanging out to see how she gets on with Ezzie ❤❤❤

[@Rebecca.Elizabeth]

Seeing Jiminy so fired up is funny, he's usually laid back. But it looks like Ariel got Jiminy's approval! I'm so glad she is enjoying her time outside and getting to see all the horses. Watching her run around was lovely. She's going to be such a nice horse to ride when she's older. That trot is so smooth!

[@Samantha-nx6sz]

Agreed! Good eye, didn’t notice it until you pointed it out. That last shot is cool

[@dolliilov3144]

[@joycescalze4947]

The way she flags her tail when she runs and her trot reminds of an Arabian

[@suemcknight9051]

If only we could really think & feel what they do…it must be so wonderful for this little girl who’s had so many life changes in such a short span of time, starting with leaving her mama & all that’s transpired since. And, now…this glorious big area with all the “amenities” & humans who will love & watch over her needs. I still think of that other filly (#26 with the dorsal stripe that was so sweet) who you didn’t pick.😢. Hope she wound up with a wonderful home, too ❤🎉

[@oHalloweenie]

Jiminy getting so excited over Ariel was so cute

[@elisabetta611]

This video made my hospitalization easier to endure. Seeing that sweet little filly just being allowed to be a baby after having been weaned so (too) early is a balm to the soul. Shae, you are truly gifted and I am honestly so excited to see Miss Ariel's journey!!

[@user-DonnaGibbs_no4t]

Congratulations Shea. You did a superb job with your girls. You have the perfect personality and temperament for healthy horses.

[@ronsamborski6230]

As well as knowledge and experience! 👍🏽

[@maryfrancessullivan1170]

Ariel is such a beauty! To see her run free, gallop and jump was exciting and heartwarming. The way she followed you out of her stall and into the inside arena was wonderful. Watching her go up to greet the other horses and how they reacted to her was truly special. Jimminy’s excitement was so infectious and made me giggle. Thank you, Shae for sharing this incredible moment with all of us! I’m so happy for you. All of your hard work with Ariel has truly been worth the wait! Great job again as always,Shae! Much love to all and I can’t wait for your next video! 👏👏❤️👍😊

[@LegendHold1]

Ariel was like, "hey are you coming dad?" What a good girl to lead out. She's so pretty and that trot and those skidding stops, you might have a reining horse there! JImney is like, "HI there, I'll be your prince!"

[@dalemartindale5372]

Caring for a horse is so special. When I was around 8 years old my family rescued a pony from a hoarding situation. We had to borrow a friend's trailer and drive through a hail storm to get him. He was a quarter horse around a year old and had never been given any real kindness. We named him Stormy. We had no idea how to care for him. We just wanted him to be happy and well cared for. We were able to board him at a local riding school and learned how to care for him. My great grandfather had lived on the farm that had been in our family since the civil war. He had always had horses but had no animal companions in a very long time. He was in his late 80's and was alone. Our family decided to see how he would like to have a pony to care for. It was a huge success. Not only did he love the companionship but he told us that Stormy was his reason to get out of bed each day to walk to the barn and care for him. He referred to him as a "Strawberry Roan". (I don't know if that's even a thing!) Stormy was never broke to ride but that was OK. That pony followed him everywhere! My great granddaddy lived to be 98 years old and told us how grateful he had been to have such a beautiful friend for all of those years. Before he passed he asked us to donate Stormy to a local petting farm to live out his life surrounded by other animal friends. We did. Occasionally we were able to visit him and were always so thankful for the love he had given to an old farmer. Stormy was never ridden. That wasn't his life's purpose. It was just to give unconditional love. Thank you so much for sharing your stories. They always bring back special childhood memories. ❤

[@ivanejorland3930]

Thank you for sharing how your grandPa enjoyed later years thanks to his loving horse its been tribute to how much we owe yhesee equines from the dawn of civilization ❤ congrats Shae&Kyle

[@fleetskipper1810]

Strawberry roan is what a red chestnut with the roaning gene is called-that’s exactly right. What a cool story!!

[@dalemartindale5372]

@@fleetskipper1810 Thanks for that info! I remember that Stormy looked kinda pink from a distance. 😆

What a wonderful story. Your parents did a compassionate wonderful thing in rescuing a hurting unloved animal. Sounds like he lead a good life.

[@daphne10120]

Jiminy’s absolute freak out had me dying. I can’t wait until both she and Ezzy are in with the entire herd for the first time.

[@kallykat]

She truly has one of the kindest eyes and face I have ever seen! That nicker she gave when you got there was adorable!

[@g3ponyqueen]

The way she looked at Ezzy and Belle when she came out. Soon to be best friends❤

[@erinuber2881]

It gives me so much joy to see Ariel running and kicking up her heels in the paddock! How marvelous! She's made such huge progress in two weeks, thanks to the loving, gentle work you've done with her. I imagine she will fit in beautifully with Belle and Ezzy. Looking forward to the next episode! Thank you so much for your videos. ❤

[@freespiritequestrian]

I’m incredibly proud of her!

[@leslieraisley9545]

Ariel loved being in the paddock. She really seems happy. She liked being near the other horses, and they were kind. Jiminy was really excited to see a new foal, and it was funny seeing Mushu trying to see her, too! I saw Belle and Ezzy looking at Ariel, too. I am sure Ezzy and Belle will like Ariel, too. I think Ariel knows that she is home. Bagherra is a wonderful Auntie. Thank you, Shea for sharing your life with the horses with us. Ariel did so well, thanks to your spending all that time with her.

Every day since you brought Ariel home I do my morning barn chores, cleaning up after six horses, then come in the house to have breakfast and open the latest Free Spirit Equestrian vlog to see the latest news and views of Ariel. So much fun! Thanks! And I'm always surprised to see how excited geldings get over baby horses.

[@charlottemacdonald4167]

She seemed like she might have been looking for her Dam, or her former horse friends. I felt some sadness. Maybe she was weaned rather quickly, then taken to the sale. I am sure she will improve with all her new friends. ❤❤

[@PredictableEnigma]

Such a joy to see horses being horses. Jiminey of course wanting to be grandpapi of the whole herd 😂 It seems that Mushu really wants to play with the foals too. Even with the bumps along the way, Ariel will really love it here. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you!

[@nancytowers4094]

So beautiful interacting with the others. Cant wait to see her with Belle and Easy.

[@goomba8170]

Ariel has definitely put on some pounds since coming to the farm, she’s a portly little thing 😂 I imagine she’ll run off anything extra, or maybe she’s just at that stage of growth where she’s filling out wider than she is tall lol. So healing and exciting to see her get to run and play and sunbathe, and interact with the other horses. I think the beginning of the video should serve as a bit of a warning to those who want Kyle to be the one to train her 😅 Young and unhandled horses require a high level of training and equine knowledge. Things could have gone a lot worse if not for how calm and experienced you are, Shae!

[@denisedavis6596]

Congratulations Shae!! She’s so smart!!! She recovered so fast!! The geldings were so funny!! And the clacking to let them know she’s a baby is the cutest thing EVER!! Bagheera is the sweetest nanny any babies could have. Ezzy seems excited as well as Jiminy, and him giving kisses was super special. 💛🧡

[@michellenelson6888]

7:40 Kyle, that soooo would have been me!! Even knowing about horses, I am a creature of habit, and when I've been told the importance of closing gates for the safety of everyone, then I just do it without thinking. I also heard myself when you said, "Sorry??!!" Ha ha ha!! I suddenly recalled all of my "Sorry??!!" moments when I have learned new things through life. 14:05 "But Mommmmmm!!! Why can't I be with her, too??"Jiminy totally looked like he was saying that!! I'm so happy that I found your KZbin and I've shared your videos, or have recommended your channel to a few new horse owners because you show the good, the bad and the ugly. You're so transparent and honest, which is what we need a lot more of, especially when it comes to something so beautiful, but also could hurt you, others or their self by something so miniscule as to closing a gate. Horses are a lot of work, and you show that it's just as much mentally exhausting as it is physically, but the reward is HUMONGOUS!!! You definitely have to LOVE what you're doing, and it is clear to me that you DO!!! Have a beautiful weekend with Kyle, ALL of your "kiddos" 🐶🐴🐷, family, friends and students!!!

[@jodyhuston1516]

Happy, Happy, Happy bucks, canters and tail flags, whoopee ! Jiminy carefully screened her, breathed her breath, and she his…. He accepted Ariel’s submission to him. She’s so thrilled to be with other horses, horses to talk to! Ariel’s first step, following you out her stall, melted my heart ❤️. I think her leap and kick in the arena was expressing pure excitement to be walking toward space and horses. This baby has good aiming skills, and she missed you, she didn’t strike out and hit. Just the same, you’re right, it’s always best to be careful ! What a happy day! 😆🎉💝☀️🐎

[@Shellyd2833]

Shae, so glad you paid attention to Ariel and so happy you were not hurt!!! Yes Ariel is happy to be out but if you guys know this or noticed Ariel was looking for her true mama!! Horse's hold a deep bond with their mother's!! That alone will never go away but yet they learn to move forward. Now Mr. Jiminey was not like this with Esmeralda. I believe Jiminey is in love first sight lol. Ezzy is very curious and Belle is a watchful eye But overall the rest of the herd is very excited and curious. I believe with your experience of wisdom and patience and kindness this all will work out!! Thanks again Shae and Kyle. 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻🌻🐎

I got my first pony from an auction not trained/broke and it turned out that she is pregnant just like Belle was!

Congratulations to all with a perfect intro to outdoors and the herd! Such a perfect step out into all the farm has to offer. Jiminy surprised me but in the best way possible and it was nice he let Mushu come up to see Ariel. Those other guys will just have to wait a while.

I loved seeing her run across the paddock, tail high - she is adorable and will give her all to you…..with a little attitude😊. Thanks for the updates. Looking forward to seeing Ezzy, Belle and Ariel together.

Ariel really likes the boys. She's such a flirt. Love the barn.

Ariel is getting her legs back, she deserves all the best, You dealt with all the challenges here in the very best manner and you trained her so quickly I am in awe. Mass respect and Love.

What a wonderful video! I could sit there all day too, and watch all of them interact. 😚 I was actually thinking that earlier in the video, before you commented that. I love how she let you lead her out of the stall, and you were so respectful of her taking her time to step over the threshold. I wasn't upset that she did a little kick in the arena, it seemed perfectly natural. I saw her looking at Kyle a couple of times too, she seems very comfortable around him as well. I think it's a great idea to introduce Arie to a new paddock and Aunty Bagheera together, great choice. Bagheera seems completely unimpressed! But also unworried, which is really good. What a lovely calming presence she is. I did notice that Ariel was a little unsteady on her feet at first, I wonder if this is the first time ever that she had room enough to run and kick up her heels? I noticed that she got more sure-footed as time went on. And I agree with you, she is a beautiful mover. Just poetry in motion. And I just love her blushing cheeks! (Butt cheeks 😆) so very very adorable. I think you should introduce a blush in that color and name it for her! I love how quickly she went up to the other horses and introduced herself. She has so much confidence. You have really done a great job bringing her along to your world. Mushu and Jiminy are completely smitten with her. I didn't know that Jiminy thinks he's the leader of the herd! Ezzy is really curious, and just *can't* contain it. She wants to sneak through that fence so bad, and find out who this new girl is! Belle seems curious but chill about it. I can't tell you how lovely it is to watch all these interactions. I wonder if she's met your lovely pig yet. (Is her name Penny? My brain isn't sure, sorry.) Thank you for sharing this lovely unfolding tale!

I had to watch these two videos over again! Starting with this one. Still so absolutely lovely to watch, all of it. I love her wonderful rhythmic trot! It's absolutely amazing how far she's come in 2 weeks, from "Get away don't touch me" to accepting a halter and learning to lead, and even leaning in for a kiss. So awesome. Shae and Kyle, both of you made this happen. Kudos for all that you do for your horses! I love how you interact with all of your animals.

​@@cattymajivthank you for telling me 😊 I couldn't remember! I knew Penny was close but I couldn't remember for sure. Old brain ❤

First and foremost I want to say what a fantastic job you’re doing with Ariel…I loved that she let you lead her, and then when she got outside was so happy to be running around and investigating her new Surroundings-Jiminny was too funny with his reaction to her-I think he has a crush on her-so cute-and I can’t wait to see her and Ezzy together-but Bagheera is being her calm, fantastic self and set a good example and make Ariel feel comfortable….Btw, the barn looks amazing-all in all, I would think all of this makes you so happy-and I’m so happy for you and the way things are playing out…looking forward to the next video ❤
