One of the best tips that i keep in mind was given to me by my farrier: horse training is never a solid line going up a chart. It’s filled with ups and downs.. although in the end you are going “up”, making progress. And nothing like a horse to teach you patience and make you think!

When I was in high school we had 9 horses, and I knew nothing. I raised an Arabian from 4 months until he grew up to be a stallion. He was kept in a separate enclosure, and when I came to see him after opening the gate carrying a bucket of grain often, he would come barreling toward me., stopping just in time. I don’t remember ever moving my feet or being afraid. Probably should have been, but I in my naïveté just thought he was happy to see me lol. He was probably trying to show me he was high horse. Wish I had had these tools you are sharing.

Waiting for the relaxation and focus can take so long sometimes but is so worth it . It takes the time it takes .It's nice you see the calming signals and you are helping him find his relaxation. When they go into the sympathetic nervous system it's nice to see them go into the peresympathetic or find his homeostasis level. Brilliant work taking the time it takes.😊

I had two American Warm Bloods, they were brothers born 3 days apart, same father different mothers, and one of them became deathly scared of walking in the woods. He would not go in any trail that went between trees and into the woods. And if I tried to walk him into the woods he would just freak out and even rare up. So I fenced off a new area that was about 1-1/2 acres, and half of it was pretty thick woods with just trails running through it, and I put their favorite food on the other side of the wooded area so that on his own time he would have to go through the woods in order to get to it. and I put him and his brother in there because I knew his brother wouldn't have any issue going to it, and the only way he could get some of that sweet feed was for him to overcome his fear and go into the trees. And then he would have to stand in the woods in order to eat it. And it took him like 4 hours before he just couldn't stand it anymore and he finally worked up the courage and made it to that food. So I left him in there for the rest of the week and only fed him in the trees. So it worked great because he was no longer scared of the woods. But I still wonder if that was the right way to go about it. My entire thought process was what would be easiest on him, and I figured allowing him to work it out on his own was the best way. And that he did.

I have a horse and he is good with the other horses but when it comes to humans he is very standoffish. I have had him for three years and he is still head shy and seems to have an etchisketch brain and if you miss one day with him, he’s forgotten everything. Recently I broke my foot so others have been feeding my horses and as you can imagine he’s just gone wild. I can’t catch him now and even at feed time when the others are down near the house fussing with their bins, he stands away and if approached he just stays just out of reach. I leave because I’m not about to even consider chasing him or even walking him down. This horse you are working with here is so similar to my horse and it’s so frustrating because life here with me is pretty special for horses, as my other horses will confirm. So frustrating!

That sure is tough to be around, I feel your pain about that as those are the types of horses that tend to arrive here. Not all of course, some are amazing with people. It's hard too if you've broken your foot. We talked about this on the live chat today kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ2xZKSfhZp7aLs and discussed how to deal with such a problem. I'll see if I can extract just that part as the whole stream is almost 2 hours long... anyways, it takes time and lots of patience for sure.

I wonder if he just doesn't enjoy having his head touched... Like maybe he will tolerate it, but he would rather you just get on with it. My guys always seem to like it better when I go up to their shoulder as opposed to straight up to their face. Maybe it is partly just an impatience thing and he is tense and wants to go. I wouldn't wait for him to come back to me, I would drive him a bit(even if it is just at the walk and with the gate closed) and get him to hook on a bit. It might help him get a bit of energy and tension out and keep him focused on you. Either way I think your patience is lovely and you've probably already worked it out fine... This makes me feel like I should go out and halter my guys in the paddock just for a little extra practice😀. Thanks for the motivation!

He had a different feel to it than not liking it, as if there was genuine worry or fear. It's true though, this video is old and he is long past this and it was not a long term thing at all. The oddity of it that I wanted people to understand is that he wasn't like this before. If you were to have known/seen him, it would have been such an odd thing as he did great and was very soft to the touch, which he is now. So, as you said, a bit of patience and reminders and he's pretty good about it all. Thank you for the thoughts and advice though, I appreciate it and it's great advice too. Going up the shoulder and/or along the withers etc is a great approach and is something I still do for him to this day. It's a great reminder.

Perfect lesson for me to watch today. Bear’s behavior is very much like this. First week I did a lot of off and on Halter and neck rope . Never getting to where He got upset . But now , he walks up to me and then walks away every time now .So I feel like I am back to the first week . I don’t get far with the Halter . Maybe it’s my lack of confidence. Today He acted nervous about his surroundings . I felt like something happened before I got there that bothered him . He would get a mouth full of Alfalfa’ and run back to his corner where He stands and lays down most of the day . However, He has done that since the beginning . But today it was much more of a NERVOUS run back to a safe place with a mouth full of Food behavior. He does not show food aggression. And Bear is willing to back off when I think he may be too anxious about getting to His food .You explaining and showing Us how to end like we started, Is priceless information for me. I guess I felt a bit discouraged this week because It seemed like I am going backward with His trust in me . I did sit down under His trees until He was relaxed and ready to go to sleep. Didn’t try anything else with Him today . No halter practice. I will keep doing what you showed in this video. Thank you Graeme and Jen , you are a treasure to both Gary and I and Bear 💜🐴💜💜

That's a great suggestion. It can definitely happen as their jaw changes position when they put their head down. In my case I have probably the best dentist/vet in the area and he regularly checks on my horses for any problems. His last check came up good and he did have some recent touch ups on his teeth with it. So, in such a case, I don't believe it's the problem but I wouldn't completely rule it out. The solution unless my vet tells me different is the same though, I do my best to address the behavior and let him know he's safe. Thanks for commenting! :)

Hi, your fencing looks very interesting. Getting ready to make a pasture space. Is it 5 levels of rope that is forming your fence? thx
@StableHorseTraining
@StableHorseTraining 7 жыл бұрын
It's called Bayco. It's a stretchy plastic fencing that doesn't cause cuts or damage to the horses but doesn't break. I believe that each strand can hold close to 1000 pounds and so 5 strands are good. Installing is the same as barbed wire but it's just much safer. Lasts forever and installs really easy. We did a lot of research before choosing our fencing and this was the most economical and safe fencing we could come up with. You could probably get by with 3 strands, definitely 4 strands but they recommend 5 and that's what we did. Some installations include a hot wire on top to teach them not to lean on it to get anything on the other side, but we've never had a top wire break. The bottom one tends to get caught on their feet if they put their foot through, but it doesn't cut them if they pull and most of the time they just stop and wait for help to get out. It's rare though.

Could he be skin sensitive to the knots in the halter up near his poll? Just wondering. Had you tried him in a nylon halter? It kinda looked like he was not scared of the halter - more he disliked it - maybe because it is uncomfortable. Could he have some fly bites that made the skin around his poll extra sensitive? Nice video on the releasing of pressure and getting that return response.

Thank you for the compliments :) That's an excellent suggestion and it's possible he was sensitive to the halter, he's long past this problem now but those are things I thought about too. Sensitivity due to bites are real as well, it's hard to say definitively but I'm doubtful of that. The thing is that we don't have nylon halters here, so it wouldn't be an option to put one on him. It perhaps looked like he didn't like it, but it was definitely fear that had him moving away. Not liking something would have him moving towards me more or maybe just his head. I have my suspicions as to why he got like that, but either way with some practice he's back to the way he was and we haven't changed the halter used, how we put it on or how we lead at all.

Stable Horse Training Good point! We have a horse that is regressing and now trying to bite instead of being saddled or even just bridled but was doing fine with it.

You sir are amazing! God put you in the right place in life.. My uncle had a Palomino and he would let me walk it , ride it and generally take care of the horse when I would go out to see him. I was always afraid to go behind the horse because of being kicked. When you walked behind macaroni like that, I have a fear like a horse that something will happen. it’s always about being kicked from behind and my uncle always told me never go behind a horse. Is this true ? or is it only if a horse really knows who you are should you go behind it and touch it’s rump and its tail? What’s your take on this please ?

Thank you very kindly. For going behind horses I try to be cautious when giving advice as there are many that would disagree. For the most part I think it's fine to walk behind a horse, I'm more worried about the tail whipping me than getting kicked... That said though, it is always nicer for them to give them some light tactile feedback by keeping a hand on when you go around. I did a video a while back on the subject actually with Sean Davies and we talked about going around the back of a mustang and how he does it. Essentially before you walk to the other side, you extend your hand out to the other side and then walk around. It allows the horse to understand your intent better.

Shawna Karrasch trained for sea world then switched to horses and neuro science proves food is the best way to fix any problem... the horses LOVE it and just like when your boss takes you out to dinner, it makes the meeting go better... if that makes sense... because the pleasure and relax center is triggered by food and forms a new positive association. Pressure and release works BUT neuro science prove it triggers the worry fear side of the brain, even if the results are the same they are doing it by shutting down and giving in.. better to go with the pleasure side of their brain *:D

+Darlene DeMayo thank you very much for your thoughts! Very much appreciated. I have way too many of my own to fit into a comment here, I'll probably do a video on this topic soon I think. There is definitely a time and place for rewarding with food and I too believe it triggers a part of the brain that makes them feel good. Lots of situations and environments and circumstances though and I'd be hesitant to consider anything a silver bullet. It's a tool in the toolbox :)

This was really interesting. I always wonder, though, if a horse really doesn't want to be haltered, why doesn't he just to the other end of the paddock or bite you or bare his teeth, kick you, etc. and really tell you what he thinks. It's like the horse is playing games with you. Do you have any explanation for this? Thanks.

That's a great question. Some horses do that and they're dangerous, so you deal with that problem first. The ones that are just afraid will try to leave, what they do at that point is up to the human. No horse is playing games, ever. It's been scientifically proven that they don't have the ability to think beyond the next moment in time kind of thing. So they essentially live in the moment. This is a good topic for a video, I've written it down and will try to answer this in the next couple of days.

@Gemma Davies I'm unsure of what you're trying to say, can you clarify? Your words feel a bit... hmm... sort of "beating around the bush" kind of thing. I still don't understand your obsession with being critical of handling in his past which leads to your next sentence of "he'll never get past his problem when he's treated wrongly". Which leads to a thought process that goes down a path of blame of the current situation, which is with me. Or perhaps you're suggesting that if I don't know how he got this way then I'll never be able to fix it? In such a case nobody would ever be able to fix any horse as it's incredibly rare to know how a horse got "messed up". Anyways, it's super hard to understand what you mean, but I'll let you clarify yourself clearly if you'd like.

@@StableHorseTraining what I ment is that horses learn all the time and are in the present so even if a trainer gets him to where he's fine with being handled he will soon learn to differenciate between people. So the trainer is ok but your not and the behaviour will continue with you as from the horse's point of view you've been unfair with him. When I help people with horses I say to them correct the behaviour rather than predicting it. Let the horse make a mistake then correct with the addage in mind "as little as possible and as much as necessary" ie ask gently then be firmer until you get the answer your looking for. It changes everything and I love the way it makes horses respectful.

I don't think you've seen very many videos here. If you take a moment to look around some I expect you'll learn a lot. I still don't understand your original request to be more critical of how he was handled (as if I had any idea anyways) nor do I quite understand what you're getting at in the end outside of that it appears you have targeted me as the fault for this horse. This has been an odd conversation to say the least as you seem to be one of those trainers that shows up to teach and criticize instead of learn. I wish you the best all the same! Your words about what to do with horses is quite close to what I teach her and I expect it works well for you. Good luck! 😊

It's great you noticed. I don't know if anybody else did but you're the first to comment on it, great observation. I think it's also worth noting that by creating an extra draw for him, I can setup the exercise to succeed better as both myself and the gate can create a draw but hopefully I have both draw and drive enough that he won't run through me to get out. It all worked too. So, good observation! I don't think I made it clear why I did that, but thanks for the opportunity to circle back to that point.
