Teaching A Horse To Tie

In this video we show you our secrets on how to teach a horse to tie and not pull back. We are big believers in the Sierra Horse Halter and Blocker Tie Rings. We use Blocker Tie rings on all our hitching posts and in our trailers. We use these once a horse knows how to tie. We feel the Sierra Horse Halter is an invaluable tool and worth every penny. We do not receive any sponsorship or endorsement money from the maker of that halter, we just love it and use them A LOT.

I hope Isidro reads these comments and takes the complements to heart. All the complements are well deserved. Thank you Isidro.

I think this is the first time I've heard Isidro speak. He's very good at explaining the how and why.

[@IsidroEspinozaHorsemanship]

He speaks a lot for our Patreon group. I just shared this from there.

Better than some of the big name trainers,he should have his own segment.he is really good.

[@caringheartsforhorsesoutre8516]

The two of you are a great team! They way you help isidrio with his english and explanations by asking questions and the isidrio explains how to do everything in detail and why. He doesn't rush through it. Caring Hearts for Horses Sanctuary loves you both and everything you do for these Mustangs. Bravo

I love this video! Great explanations and so much better than showing on an old hand horse. I very much wish we had captions for those of us with hearing issues tho. I'll watch regardless, and I'll help my friend understand bc its worth it.

[@reneeschwenig7164]

I love you Isidro. You are a great horse trainer and I appreciate your videos so much. Keep up the good work!

[@AngelCatBaby]

I love the way this man handles horses. He is very good with horses and explains things very well. I wish I had someone like him around explaining this to me when I was riding horses in my younger days. He is a true horseman and reminds of the one they called The Whisperer, I wish I could remember his name; there was a book written about him with that title. I used to have one but it was stolen many years ago.

[@Bossladyone2]

The knowledge of horses he has comes from many years of learning. For a man his age with so much knowledge is more than awesome or amazing. The ability to pass this knowledge on so that others learn the right safe way to handle a horse is a gift that he is sharing without compensation makes him a treasure beyond measure. What an honor to watch these Mustang nuggets of knowledge. Isidro you your wife and your family Rock. Isidro Espinoza Rocks the Horse!!!

Guy is a total badass. Great way to explain. Right hand is no good due to injury, tying a fast knot is a no- go any mistake might hang my horse. I purchased the Sierra Horse Halter which came across the screen. Pre-tied and I'm hoping all ready to go. Yes, it's pricey, but I see it as paying not for rope, but for a safe strategy. My mustang is a good gentle, intelligent boy in most ways but learning about being tied is not going to be his strong point. As the trainer repeated so many times, better to train correctly the first time than fix a poor outcome.

[@roughneckchris]

This trainer is a stud.. Good man. Been watching his videos for a couple of months now !!

[@fallbrkgrl]

I could listen to Isidro teach all day long. Thank you for sharing this. ❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎🐂🐐🦍

[@zionnegrobler3978]

Love watching from South Africa.

[@deana8202]

Love this guys training. Thanks.

[@bookswithatwist-vanvelzerp9262]

Oh MY !!! this is exactly what I needed for my mare ... she is so good in so much - but just is too restless and always pulls back ! I think she learned too much now ! HA - so I have to teach her this as soon as I can

[@sugarboots2000]

That was awesome! Great training Isidero!

[@Boyland8692]

Isidro I just can’t put my finger on it as to why I keep getting drawn back to your videos too many great things to say about you and your methods so keep on posting and I will subscribe and keep watching. 👏👏🤩🤩

[@jimmyyounger618]

I like the technique of running the rope through the halter and tying around the neck, but I'm still going to use a blocker tie ring while I hold pressure on the free end or take a couple of wraps on a post to start. The problem I had with hard tying with a bowline on a bite knot, (the knot Isidro was using), is that while the beauty of the knot is how easy it is to untie, this is only the case when there's no pressure or weight on it. I had a big mare fall down while hard-tied with a bowline and even with two of us trying to lift at the halter for enough slack to pull the bowline free, we ended up having to cut the rope. That issue aside, I really like the idea of putting the load of a pull back on the back of the neck with a wide rope instead of on the poll's tendon with a thin halter. Safer for the horse, and as Isidro said - a particularly strong horse won't learn that he can break halters.

[@michellerowe5726]

The two of you are such an amazing team, the way you work together! Thank you!

[@nancyk3615]

This is the first time I've seen an in depth explanation of this method! Thank you! Is there a name for that knot? I need to come take a knot lesson ! How deep are those posts set and can I use old utility posts? About how far apart are they spaced? Thank you for this. This is one of the most important life skills for a horse to know; how to stand tied safely. I've been using Blocker tie rings for awhile.

[@catzdollz9810]

Thank-you Dr. Espinoza..we have learned very much today. We appreciate your time to teach us the art of horsemanship.

[@tracyjohnson5023]

we teach our babies to lead, first with neck and butt rope, then with halter. Then I run a soft rope around barrel, tie, then up through front legs, through halter loop and tie to inner tube on a post. Then I walk away and let them figure it out. This works better for me with babies. Older horses his method is the best ❤

[@randolphlearning5255]

Isidro great show. Lstin is the key to English. Horses live in a nuanced, subtle world. Latin will never let you down. Best of luck from Hamilton Ontario Canada.

[@clayoreilly4553]

Gracias, Ysidro. I really appreciate this video and your patience in explaining the principles behind this method. I'm gonna have to try it myself. Am I correct that the knot you are using is called a "Bowline"? That's what it looked like to me. Thanks again.

[@itssenecaball]

ISIDRO IS THE BEST ❤

[@natashaedmonds6696]

Very greatful for the video. I learn so much from you guys. If you know the names of the knots, will you please share. Thanks.

[@jamielane5065]

This is a much better way then what I've been doing it. I have a question, though. Can you use this on a donkey as well? Donkeys tend to be more sensitive on their nose and this looks like a great way to teach them to stand tied as well. Thank you for the video.

[@arturovelazquez5242]

Muy buenos consejos, y gracias por compartir tu trabajo,una pregunta con que empiezas un potro con filete o bozal, y muchos saludos

[@IsidroEspinozaHorsemanship]

Buenos dias. Es una combinacion es un filete que tiene soporte en frente como bozal

[@laurelsayer7557]

I must admit I found this a bit difficult to follow, particularly the use of the rope round the neck? I wondered if you could do another video on teaching a horse to tie, and subsequently to ground tie.

[@IsidroEspinozaHorsemanship]

We have more in-depth videos on teaching to tie in our Perpetual Training Toolbox video library on our website :)

[@tracyjohnson5023]

Bueno

[@sherylbenkosky5358]

What is the best kind of lead rope to use for this?

[@coffeehugger]

Great question! He shows that his ropes broke while the horse was pulling but he sure isn't do that in the video. Wonder what kind of ropes he uses?

[@modocroughstock5700]

​@@coffeehugger it's my contention he's using "Mule tape" homemade ropes and halters

[@tracyjohnson5023]

Any type of rope that won't break and no snap. All snaps will break with the right horse setting back

[@tonymarcum5035]

Best explanation I have ever heard I am going to try that on some of my horses,love that big bay horse he is a tank .thank you all very much 👍
