How nice to meet another lady with an Arabian horse, she kept up with Ferouk. Jane

Enjoyed the beautiful countryside and your visit with the other lady and her Arabia. 🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕 for the horses!! Well deserved Refreshments for the ladies at the end of the ride! 👍👍☕️☕️🍪🍪

[@margaretf7034]

Yesterday I watched for the first time your very first outing with Farouk under saddle and how well he did with the motorbikes and all the other hazards for a young horse. Today I watched this video and was full of admiration for the way your patience has made Farouk into a wonderfully obedient and exciting horse which must be a joy to ride. I love your videos Tara thank you. Best wishes to you all. M

[@Tara101]

thanks Margaret he has always been a joy to ride. He spooks much less now so even better😃

[@Tara101]

he was in training in England when I bought him

[@pj8143]

WOW❣️Two Arabian horses, Farouk & his new friend are beautiful together. Farouk wants to lead, he is very frisky on this ride. Beautiful scenery, like the beautiful flowers growing along the tracks. Thanks for sharing Tara, looking forward to seeing part 3.💙💚💛❤️❤️

Oh! Im really enjoying this one! How nice to have another arabian owner to ride with. Nice to have her there to get that one gate open and closed. ♡♡♡ Thank you, Tara. You bring joy to my life :)

Hi Tara, that gate was a bad one, it needs repairing, Farook's doing okay isn't he, he just gets on with it, bless him, it's nice that he found another Arabian to do the ride with and for you too to chat about the boys likenesses, aw hope Apollo isn't missing him too much, big hugs to all and Ike xxxxx

I agree! ❤ All those hunt fans in the future ( hahaha , 2years time) would enjoy 😉. That one part was one of the few times you had to encourage Farouk to canter faster ! ❣🏇

[@melbowell5601]

Such a good experience for Farouk so far and nice to chat to someone as you’re going round, particularly as they were on an Arabian too and happy to keep up with you. That gate was terrible, no way you could do that on horseback, so lucky you were with someone else 👍

Beautiful countryside!

[@Gushara]

This was great....another Arab that can keep up with Farouk! He definitely gets into "go" mode when he gets out on these rides.....he knows he was born to run! The other Arab is beautiful also....but Farouk, in his bigness is majestic. I still watch the Bedouin man and how he trains his horses....love to watch them run through the sandy dunes. Yelena, the sweet Fresian I acquired is not a forward horse. Been thinking that I might later on get an Andalusian as her mate....I have fallen in love with a sweet Lusitano who pastured with Yelena but I think he is too much horse for me. Ahhh, only expanding the dream! Would love to have the grand riding arena you hack out on!

[@Tara101]

I would love a Lusitano foal 🥰

[@lynjago6022]

Lovely ride Tara. And you made a friend. Would be good to see you ride together again. Company is always good on a ride, and also if, heaven forbid, either of you were to have a fall or something. :-)

[@juliederry3719]

Aww how lovely it is to see two beautiful Arabian horses together, that last gate was a difficult one good job that lady and Farouk's new friend were there too, looking forward to p3 Tara, tfs x Julie

[@Robin-sb7vu]

What a fun ride!!! I also think you guys should ride again, she kept up with you really well on her Arab. Wow.. it was nice to see she could get off and back on again.. when you have larger horses it makes that so difficult. I couldn't do that! lol I wonder what her Arabs bloodlines are. Great video! :)

[@bernadettehooper4318]

Beautiful estate. Lovely companionable ride. Interesting to see another Arabian close up and to hear from his owner. ("Shies at color changes in tarmac...." )

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

Two beautiful horses for the price of one! Chestnut is one of my favourite colours of horse - most favourite is black! But no good horse is a bad colour as they say.

[@christineroerty2534]

Both Farouk and Appolo are beauties....very different, but you sure picked two winners....and your training has paid off Oh I am so enjoying your rides. TY.

[@Tara101]

[@Amanda-ly9rc]

I always wonder if the horses are having their own conversations whille their riders are having their conversations 🤔 wonder what they talk about...

[@diannelavoie5385]

With horses, a great deal of their "conversations" are done with body language.

[@Amanda-ly9rc]

@@diannelavoie5385 I am well aware of that.😂 You totally missed what I meant in my comment

[@jaykb6587]

Well, I had one horse that I knew held conversations! She'd never quit neighing if she saw another horse! (I rode her as a last measure...) What she was saying? I just know she created one noisy conversation with the other horse... probably complaining about her horrible rider. 😃

[@shelleyandcritters841]

How fun to ride along with another Arabian! Farouk and his new buddy can commiserate about colors, mud, puddles, and having to pick one's feet up😂

[@Tara101]

👍

[@rebeccapaquette9203]

Arabians are such a paradox - one minute they are floating across the ground with a breathtaking trot, and the next they are tripping over their own hooves, lol. If I'm leading my Arabian Zell and he stumbles, he always looks over at me as if accusing me of tripping him.

Nice to see another Arabian and a little company to visit with😊 I can’t imagine that you would have been able to get that heavy gate open on your own, would you?!😳😳 beautiful countryside👍🏻👏💕 thank you Tara!

[@Cissy2cute]

How much fun was that! The Arab twosome. That gate didn't look right at the bottom somehow. What a nice area to ride in. It seems like Farouk doesn't want to stay still for a gate-he just wants to keep on going.

[@Tara101]

[@janicetaylor2486]

Another beautiful Arab, lovely to find that he has similar traits as Farouk, he is certainly smaller, but just as pretty. Looking forward to seeing the next instalment.

[@janicetaylor2486]

@@louisecassidy5991 - They so are, but very beautiful!

[@jaykb6587]

The Arab I had was a perfect kids' horse. He was the calmest little guy...only 14.1, but totally trustworthy with anyone. Yet at gaming, he was almost always taking home the ribbons. It's in the breeding, as well as the training I guess. Farouk is coming along so well!

[@leonslionessnz4867]

How lovely for Farouk to meet another Arabian. I often wonder if purebred horses recognize their own kind. For instance if there were a group of horses in a paddock together and two were Arabians would they be friends with each other? I have heard of tamed Mustangs preferring one anothers company rather than mixing with horses that have always been domesticated.

[@Tara101]

tfs😃

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

Not sure, but I think with the mustangs it makes sense for them to prefer each other’s company than that of horses that have never been wild or feral. You can take the man off the street, but not the street out of the man, if that makes sense? Mustangs probably think of the more pampered domestic horses as “soft” and not an ideal part of their tough horse gang 😂

[@aniaaniuszowska9431]

your movies have a relaxing effect on me 😉

[@susanbrown2909]

You can almost see what Farouk might shy at next as u go along..I expect you take that in to account Tara as you trot past weird road marking s or shapes u think he might shy at..I even do it myself now when watching lol.

[@Tara101]

[@susanford6926]

It was great ride except for the gates! 🐎🐎🐎🐎

[@geminidream4347]

Normally I like the long mane's on horses but that short one really looked good that horse. Validation that I was right about colors if I see this behavior in the rescues! : ) I am learning so much from these video's Tara. Giggle of the day, the scary log. lol I think Farouk is rushing because he just wants to get it over with so that he can go home where he feels safe. Eventually he should settle though the more he is pushed out there to face his fears. It's a shame you can't research his history to see about any traumas he's had that make him be afraid like he is. I have a feeling that he has growing up before you got him. It would explain a lot of things. Like one horse's act out I got to ride. The new owner forgot to tell me he was a rescue from being severely beaten and with western, for some odd reason you have half a mile of reins. I like you like to have a short rein to pull them in if they get speedy or nervous. I happened to lay the leftover on him where I could be sure he wouldn't trip and he stiffened and danced sideways. I got him under control but for some reason tossed the reins on the other side, be deviled if he didn't the same thing. It clicked after that, that it was the reins that was the trigger so I balled them up and said "See", turning his head so he could see the ball, "Not gonna harm you, to short now." The rest of the ride I had no problems with him. The owner panicked when he found out that I was not an experienced rider because of this horse's panic attacks and came looking for us. He couldn't believe it when I told him," no,no problem once I shortened his reins he doesn't seem to like them long." I was told he would of never let a beginner ride him yet here I was and not in the ditch where he thought he would find me. lol

That looked like such a lovely day for a ride 🙂

[@Tara101]

it was 🥰

[@lyncheeseman]

Wow the lady kept up with you and neither Arab like different road colours. Farouk is certainly getting fit, especially trotting up those hills. It must have been nice riding with another person who has the same breed of horse and problems. The other was very compact. What’s with the blue lead rope, plus didn’t she have different stirrups. Were they to stop her foot from going through. He looked about 14 h perhaps.

[@Tara101]

I have seen a lot of people use those type of stirrups on endurance rides.

[@jeanfish7]

Probebly about 14.2 or 3. Just looks small beside16hands

[@lyncheeseman]

Tara I’ve seen them on the American endurance rides where distances are 50 to 100 miles, the riders have worn trainers, perhaps some run with their horse plus comfort. Farouk certainly seems to love the endurance. X

[@murielsmith7540]

What great fun for you to meet with another Arabian horse owner. Did I understand that Farouk came from Austria?

[@Tara101]

yes he did, he was just in England for training when I saw him😃

[@jeanfish7]

Arabians range in height from " pony sized" to thoroughbred height depending on breeding. Size does not relate directly with endurance ability. The original Arabians brought over from the middle east were pony sized to barely 15 hands. (4 in=1hand). Little does not mean less mighty!

I used to figure for trail rides, as a general rule of thumb, about five miles an hour for a normal walk, trot, and canter. Is this similar to what you expect?

Farouk is a bit faster. Apollo goes at around 5 miles an hour
