I bought a Rocky Mountain mare that seemed calm but with little training. Thought she could be a good project horse for me. However, I soon discovered that she had been very traumatized and what appeared as calmness was actually 'shutdown.' I have spent the past year and a half using trauma-informed horsemanship methods to work through her trauma and she is turning into a most lovely and willing horse. I have documented our journey on my website and on Instagram. Love that smooth ride!

I've ridden a Icelandic horse, which i imagine youll talk about in another video. She was a pocket suzed rocket, but so smooth in her gaits. I've ridden a Tennessee Walking Horse. He's a pleasure and so comfortable. I've ridden a boat load of different Mountain Pleasure type horses up from Kentucky. But the love of my life is a little silver grulla, dual registered Rocky Mountain/Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse - a retired broodmare, who's carried me on the trail almost from the moment I first trained her under saddle. They are the sweetest, gentlest, kindest, best gained horses ever, but then I am biased. 😉😊

My first horse, Dusty, was a gaited horse and a joy to ride. Dusty was a chestnut with blonde mane and tale, white blaze, and 16.5 hands with a loving heart. Before I owned him he was a parade horse. I was truly blessed at 11 years old to have him. I still love & miss him.

My first horse was a 5 Gaited American Saddlebred. I got him when I was 10 yrs old. I did everything with him. I showed him Western, Hunt Seat, Saddle Seat, and bareback. We trail rode, showed, jumped, did dressage and drill riding. He was the love of my life. I also had several Tennessee Walkers that I also showed and trail rode. If I were to buy a horse tomorrow, I would, without a doubt, buy a gaited horse! We also had a gaited pony! Love your channel! ✨💖✨

I had ridden a TN Walking Horse huntseat style in flat equitation and won many events with him. He was really exceptional at listening and responding to me, very receptive to subtle cues, moved beautifully, would gather. Sitting trot was super easy, it was almost hard to post. He also loved games so jumps, slalom, trails, obstacles, eventing, he loved it all. That was a great horse. I moved to KY in 94 and hadn't heard of the KY Saddler or the Rocky Mtn horse before but have seen them a lot at the local shows. One feature is how surefooted they are on mountain trails, which can be crumbly, slippery, or subsided. It's a horse you can trust with your life.

My friend has an amazing Rocky Mountain named Chocolate, she’s gaited but she can also do the normal gaits, she’s a great barrel and jumping horse, she has jumped up to 4 feet and run a very quick barrel pattern, it’s surprising how well she can, considering she’s gaited!

I had a standardbreed fantastic horse! After she passed away I bought a 6 year old registered Missouri Fox Trotter Mare Pure black,Stunning horse,however,I had my hands full with her she was so hot,I had 6 closed hear injuries,broke my tail bone,tor my groin muscle dislocated my wrist and a couple of fingers.She was just to much horse for me so after keeping and hiring 2 trainers and trying to work with her after another 6 year I gave her away to some great people.I disclosed everything,and they said,we still want her,so she got a new home.She scared me from horseback riding ever again.I was in my 50's when all this happened,I wanted to ride,tried to ride other peoples horses but the fear was still there.I'm 70 now so I think it's to late for me to start over. I'm not saying that the breed is like this,I'm just giving you my experience. It's just sad,I still wish I could ride at least one more time without fear getting the better of me.

I'm in PA. My sister had a great pony she'd take on weekend trail rides to different places. She said on the mountain trail rides, the gaited horses had to go separate from the "regular" horses because when they got into doing their thing, they were too fast for the regular horses to walk with but not quite trotting, so the regular horses were always out of sync with them.

Saddlebreds do not have the natural gaited movements of the horses mentioned in the video. They normally just walk/trot/canter, & no head shake. Due to their conformation, they're naturally high-headed, which actually makes some people nervous. Some can be trained to rack, but it's not a natural thing for them. I learned to ride on Saddlebreds and love them, but true gaited horses are much more comfortable to ride.

One of the things that bothers me about the way Americans view horses is that they see them as tools. Animals that "you can do anything you want with." The ownership overpowers the relationship. Your mention of abusive and even 'illegal" treatment says a lot about it. "Using horses." Don't glorify this. It's really rather sickening.
@thecaliokieconnexion Жыл бұрын
That isn’t what the girl means by “ using horses” what that phrase means is that the horse has a level head. In other words they are sensible, they don’t spook easily, and so they are safe for people to ride and do various types of things with in different environments. In contrast, Some horses temperaments can be too hot. They spook easily and lose their nerve… they might be beautiful to look at, and fancy, but you can’t take them riding outside of an arena…. They or a familiar paddock, or let a child ride them… it just isn’t safe. “ using horse” means they are more versatile because of the fact that they keep their cool. A “ non using horse” means they are just for show… maybe even just for halter shows which basically is a Beauty pageant. Do you want I spouse who does practical things around the house, cares for the kids, cooks great meals, earns money for the family and loves to go do lots of different fun activities with you, your friends and the kids and other relatives??? That is like a “ using horse “ or would would you rather have a spouse that can’t do any of that for some reason…, but sure is attractive physically??? That is a “ non using horse” ( spousal equivalent. ) long time ago there were some practices in the show ring, with certain breeds that later were outlawed because over time got to thinking about it and realize they practices were unkind. People in the individual show organization or breed associations kindly “outlawed” the practices to be sure and not encourage unkind practices. The practices made the horse look appealing to judges in the ring. The practices were not made illegal by the government, that isn’t what they mean by outlawed. They were made “ illegal” by the show association, or the breed registry, to be sure and only encourage kindness towards these horses. Don’t judge others or be predjudiced about people or groups you don’t know, please. It is unkind.

Alyssa was referring to the Big Lick competitions that use abusive and illegal methods to encourage a big stride with high lifted legs in Tennessee walkers. Its horrific and horse lovers in America have been working for a long time to get the competitions completely outlawed, with criminal charges against trainers who do this to the horses. She needed to reference that otherwise it would have been the elephant in the room in that segment. I think she did well to remind viewers to separate the horse from the abusive practice they are associated with. I don't know where you get this judgement, but as an American who was a horse owner, all the horse owners I know loved their horses and cared for them very well.
