Taking my husband's horse out hunting for the first time.

[@gemmawilson2931]

That was brilliant, really enjoyed watching. Your husband’s horse was perfect, loved how you thanked him for being good and looking after you ❤

[@childponysleeprepeat]

Thank you that's so kind, I was so happy with him and you've got to be grateful when you have a lovely day- there are many days that don't go to plan!! 🦄❤️

@@childponysleeprepeat I was so happy to hear your excitement and to hear you thanking this lovely horse. Wonderful video. I haven't ridden in years, but hope finally owning a horse with be possible eventually and I dream of teaching my husband to ride. good on you friend. Wish you many great adventures together.

Wow your husbands horse is very calm , waiting for the off. Bless him, he was listening to you and everything around him.

[@childponysleeprepeat]

His big fluffy ears were taking it all in weren't they 🦄❤️ bless him he was an absolute saint.

[@Liz-mk5yy]

Such a good, sweet boy. He will take care of your husband, for sure. Loved watching this!

[@childponysleeprepeat]

He's an absolute sweetheart, we are so lucky to have him

[@amarshlain9788]

Dezzie is really lovely horse and he looks as though he will look after your husband. Nice caring riding, well done.

[@childponysleeprepeat]

Thank you, that's so kind. Dezzie's even kinder than I could ever have hoped for, can't wait for my husband to take him out now!

Watching from Australia and enjoying every bit! A lovely quiet horse! Sorry to see you nearly speared there😮 hope you continue to post? THANKYOU for the treat❤

[@freddiemoretti8456]

Brought back very fond memories of going out with Greenspring Valley cubbing and hunting with Howard County in Maryland. Dezzie reminded me that if I were to fall off there is plenty of time to get my feet under me coming from such a height as I got to ride a good number of draft crosses. Really enjoyed this, what a grand horse for anyone to ride. Take care and stay well. Cheers...Freddie

[@childponysleeprepeat]

I loved reading this comment, it's mainly for the memories I am recording, so thank you for letting me know how treasured your days gone by are! And Dezzie absolutely is a grand old boy 🦄❤️

@@childponysleeprepeat I really enjoyed the video and look forward to watching others you have made. This is a 3 minute video of memories that I posted a while back, horses included.

Lovely horse and what a fun ride!

Dezzie's such a gentleman isn't he, it was a great first outing. 🦄

Trucks work for mounting such a Beauty of a Beast.

[@childponysleeprepeat]

yes they're great, I try teach all the horses I ride to let me get on from all sorts of random places so they stand steady!

[@marysheehy4733]

What a super hunter!!!

[@childponysleeprepeat]

He is a wonderful boy!! ❤️🦄

[@fion1flatout]

Those woods looked like one of my rides where I'm glad I'm on a 12 hand cob

[@childponysleeprepeat]

I have to admit it would have been a bit more relaxing on my little cob too!! 😅🫣

[@ppww6076]

Gosh I felt like I was there almost - and miss riding terribly. What a good boy! I was of the pat your horse sort of rider too until recently I've been watching a trainer who points out that maybe it doesn't actually feel like a reward to the horse. At least your tone clearly told him he was good.

[@childponysleeprepeat]

ohh I did read about Patting, but Dezzie is nearly 15 and has been fussed and patted so many times before (hopefully!!) And he does seem to know it's because I'm so happy with him.. probably my voice more than anything but I make sure to do wither scratches too 🥰

[@susannewagner8056]

Sweat and perfekt Horse....💯👍❤️

[@Dany-yi5rz]

Lovely horse, I feel like kissing him on his big nose!

[@childponysleeprepeat]

He has got a very kissable face 🥰🦄

[@karenmccarthy3338]

Lovely ride and he was so calm and such a gent. Can you tell me the name of that tower in the middle of a field that you trotted past?

[@childponysleeprepeat]

Thank you, he was such a delight. I will ask someone with more knowledge than me for the Tower name!

At 3:34...: Such an old unfashionable Reit Hut (right rider) we had in Germany 40 years ago. this old equipment from the horses dates back to the early 19th century. Hardly anyone has effective protection for the legs of horses. It's probably not tradition.

[@childponysleeprepeat]

Ahh the issue with boots on horses out hunting is we tend to slog through mud and plough and doing that for a full day can lead to boots slipping or rubbing even if you get off and adjust them, which just isn't always practical. Some do wear boots, but it is the back of your mind that they could create more problems than they solve. 😊

[@judycook4314]

Beautiful horse! Just curious - what are the dogs after?

[@childponysleeprepeat]

They follow a scent dragged that morning by someone running. It means we vaguely know where we are going but when conditions change from shade to sun or turf to mud etc it is really challenging to follow so we get pauses. It's a lot steadier than bloodhounding which I also enjoy but can really wind horses up because the hounds are physically chasing a fresh runner only twenty minutes ahead of them so they never pause.
