Ryan can I ask where you get those nice lariats? I just looked at one at Tractor Supply and it was rock hard neon green plastic 😅

[@margueritewade3728]

Love these videos,it’s not only showing us what reaction to expect from the horse ,it helps us to learn how to use our tools properly Thank You for posting this video including the hows and why you’re doing things in these steps ❤ love to see more😊

[@JG-mt3rp]

@AndyTheCornbread None of that is helpful. I need to know where to find these products which is why I asked Ryan.

This mare has hit the horsey jackpot! She’s shaping up to be a lovely horse.

[@truthteller9071]

Mustang Heritage gives Mustangs to veterans with no horse experience but a 3 week class that they dont enforce veterans to attend. Unfortunately, owning a Mustang has become a status symbol among veterans. Ive seen too many Mustangs from this program get abused, neglected & abandoned. Its shameful. There should be higher requirements & vetting.

[@Gypsy6484]

Please share the link of the veteran’s program you are talking about and your sources discussing veterans and wild horse abuse. I know of therapeutic settings where veterans with PTSD can work with trainers (TX) and help work through their issues. It sounds like you are saying that wild horses that are given/acquired by inexperienced veterans specifically will get abused. I’ve known cases of horse abuse with all kinds of people. EVERYONE should be vetted prior to acquiring a wild mustang as well as checked periodically to ensure the animals are well cared for.

[@TranquilTrails]

Unfortunately the BLM could give a crap. In fact they sat at my gate waiting for me because I would t sign the final paperwork without a contact for a trainer. They said the horse is yours, period. We need the paper and that is all they care about, getting them out of BLM pens, not their problem after that.

[@samanthasmith995]

Absolutely should be higher requirements. My very first horse I trained from start to finish is my Mustang named Bougie. It was a wake up call. Fortunately I was influenced by the right people and got into this type of natural horsemanship training. Exactly the way Ryan trains. We did classes and our homework. We did it the right way just like you see in the video. It’s very doable with determination, understanding, and patience. Throughout our journey I was told by many , Mustangs are worthless, you will never make him a riding horse, or you will die trying. Try telling a cowgirl she can’t do something,she will do it out of spite. And that journey made me a much better horse woman. I would not have the Horsemanship Skills I have today without that difficult Mustang and the determination to find our way. My Mustang is now a proven Champion, in English, Western and Endurance riding . Our Bond is unstoppable. We still get underestimated but at the end of the day we Respect. Yes if you get a Mustang you better have time and resources to make it work, or don’t bother.

[@shepherds.pie.youtube]

​@@samanthasmith995Hahaha good on you!!!

[@truthteller9071]

@@Gypsy6484 You can look up Mustang Heritage, Veterans Program. Stop with the excuses. No one should abuse any animal but if inexperienced people who obtain a Mustang for Free with only maybe 3 weeks of training to gentle their Mustang yet hardly attend the classes is more likely to abuse the horse! I've seen it over & over. This is different from therapeutic horse back riding that is offered for free to veterans. Look it up.

[@lassebauer]

I don't know the first thing about horses, yet I still watch Ryan's videos religiously. Fascinating stuff 👍🏼😊

[@homeandgardendiy6363]

I agree!

[@DougHinVA]

I don't care to be around horse but a lot of what he explains applies to dogs as well... especially shelter and rescued ones....

[@Brandiga721]

JLO is trying so hard! Love her try and love watching these videos. So many nuggets of info explained very clearly here!

[@erinrae5119]

My daughter and I are first-time horse owners and adopted a mustang yearling. She is now 3.5 years old and I would not change anything about the experience. It has been tremendous growth and learning for us all and the bond she has with my daughter can't ever be broken. I think in some ways, we have an advantage over an experienced horse owner. We don't have preconceived ways and timeframes, we just adjust to her. If you have the desire to do what is best for the horse and lots of research and spending time with the horse, you will succeed. I don't think most people realize how much time it takes, but it is totally worth it. Thank you Ryan for all the great videos, they have helped us so much!

[@donnac.1609]

Great session! A very nice mare in the hands of the right trainer. J Lo is such a well built mare....hoping she ends up in a forever home with some horse show events of some sort!

[@SG-vu4qy]

this mare loves working with you and learning, despite the resting mare face. She is so serious and very careful where she puts her feet. what a great prospect she is for any discipline where careful attention to footwork is needed.

[@red80808]

Fantastic lesson. Ryan teach me!! I'll come work for you!

[@chrisfoor1869]

Love your analogies! “Stir the pot so nothing burns on bottom.”

[@donnaschofield6947]

I love her. She is so beautiful. You do a really good job with horses. I appreciate the advice you give.

[@didibolter9362]

This gorgeous mare is truly GREAT! ❤🐎❤️

[@haleykay776]

It's so wonderful to see how she learns and accepts what you are teaching her in every lesson. I truly learn so much from your videos and have just joined your patreon as the more I learn, the more I realise I don't know...😊 always something new to learn. Thank you for such great content, it's greatly appreciated.

[@anna9072]

There’s a lot of try in this mare. She’s going to be a good, solid sensible horse.

[@sophiasirena5226]

Her little stomps are so funny to me! A beautiful and smart girl! Great video! 💙🐎

[@clayoreilly4553]

Her little stomps are a warning.

[@samanthasmith995]

Flies! She can only get them off by stomping or brushing them off with her nose, especially on front legs or she can use her tail to swish them on her hind legs. But she has a halter and lead rope on preventing her from using her nose. So she stomps . I've been attacked by a Mustang and almost trampled to death. If she was planning that she would have already done it. The rest of her body language, which you learn about in this type of training tells you she is not in attack mode. Of course you would usually use fly spray first but she may not be ready for that yet. Oh yeah the fly spray is a monster to just started horses. Sounds simple but not to them. Ask any horse owner. A horses brain is the size of a walnut, no joke . Look it up

[@clayoreilly4553]

@@samanthasmith995 You are not the only person who has had and has worked with horses, Samantha. Could it be flies? Yes. But horses also know very well how to express frustration, just as we do, and are in some ways far more intelligent than humans no matter the size of their brain.

[@therosejewelrailroad489]

Having fun watching your progress with J lo. These are the only J lo videos I enjoy on the internet.

[@loriazevedo5994]

I love how easy you make it look. Horses are so smart. Thank you

[@merjagranlund1381]

Wow, you are really calm. When she got stressed, there was absolutely nothing in your voice that you were getting stressed. You continued talking in a normal conversational tone. No "hoo, hoo" or "calm down". That is what is your strength as a horse trainer, all your knowledge and your enormous calmness. Almost all people get stressed in such a situation. They reflect the horse's stress, so the horse's stress level increases. You are really good!👍👏

[@leannevitale3228]

I look forward to seeing JLo’s progress. Really enjoying following your lessons Ryan. Thank you

[@chrisp7548]

You and J Lo are doing great!

Amazing.what a language to learn for the horse and owner.Been around and have had several horses and ponies for 50 years and never seen these training techniques. Well done.

[@victoriamorris7619]

Look up Parelleli.

[@samanthasmith995]

Yes Pat Parelli’s Program got it started. Much respect to them. I know cause I did the videos . But Ryan is just as capable. And probably wouldn’t nickel and dime you death. These techniques have been around for years. Lots and lots of respect to Ryan and J-Lo

[@annieparnell2847]

Most EXCELLENT INTRO!!😂😂

[@allisoncolby7851]

What an excellent video! Super helpful.. I'm working with some "rescues", and needed a refresher course and another perspective. Great with the details to round it all off with the lesson/instruction. Thank you~🙏👍😎🏞️🌄🌲🐎🐴From Oregon

[@CharlotteDere-b7d]

I know almost nothing about horses or horsemen-ship but I’m fascinated with watching these videos. I would like to watch the other J-lo videos but I’m having trouble finding them. Please add links so I can see all her progress from the beginning. I live in Virginia. I have an adult daughter with several horses in Utah. I made an animal lover out of her as a child. She took it from there. 😊

[@loriazevedo5994]

She is so good , and of course you are too.

[@no.one1222]

Hey! I really love your training methods and work❤️ I was wondering if you could make a vid abt how to get a horse back into work! ❤️❤️❤️ your amazing ❤️

[@NNLBC]

excellent video, thank you again :)

[@U2dskier]

I get emotional watching this mare. I bought a mare (in the 80's!) who was so much like this mare. She had been a brood mare for 7 years out on a range, no handling. But she was halter broke. For a year I tried gentling her, tried to "get her trust". But when I got comfortable, thinking she was okay with me, I would get bolder with the brush on the side or belly. She blew up. The pattern seemed hopeless for me so I gave her away in trade for a old saddle. She would have been such a beautiful horse to ride if I had gained this knowledge Ryan has. I want to cry because her life was all fear.

[@freddiecastro3598]

Ryan you’re a badass trainer brother!! 👍👍👍

[@bitbybitfarmseast3085]

Another great video. I love your relaxed manner. For green handlers.......don't get the rope/lariat up under the upper dock of the tail where they can clamp down. It truly can become the next verse of Dumb Ways to Die! Very difficult to get the lariat loose when they are exploding/bolting. The horse can get a rope burn and set back their training. I've made this mistake for you! Maybe Ryan already covered this and I missed it.

[@sherryw-ponyluv-er2394]

She def has some talent to kick! It will be interesting to see her journey to tolerating hoof trims. Very nice to see that she made some good progress!!! She’s trying to figure it out.

[@OlsJanette]

Excellent. Thanks Ryan.

[@shelm-b8p]

Guilty! First time horse owner and I have a mustang. I started out with a TIP trainer. I ride for almost 50 years and I can say that I really need to watch out to keep establishing leadership. Over and over. The rest is surprisingly easy with my mare. In 4 weeks she is doing very well. Halter, cleaning, picking up hooves, trailer loading, saddle pad, surcingle, leading, driving… But leadership establishment is questioned often.

[@samanthasmith995]

That’s how Mustangs are. Mine is 15. But he finally got there years ago. Don’t give up or give in . Dig in. You will get there. Education yourself, take some classes. I have been where you are. And it felt like 1 step forward and 2 steps back. That part will pass one day and you will have your dream horse of a lifetime.

[@MSable-fx3yg]

Excellent session!

Such a beautiful and sweet horse! ♥She is so lucky having you starting her on her hopefully long life/travel with humans! 🙏

[@cindyspiess9963]

Fantastic ! and she is a very well put together horse too ( in my opinion) Very nice . She is very sensitive . i think that kind of horse can go very advanced , or be ruined , very quickly , in the wrong hands . Glad she is with you Ryan ! 👍😊

[@jennysiebenthaler134]

Great video!! I love J Lo, she's so cool and good-looking : ) I really appreciate how you're bringing her along.

[@januarysmith2985]

This is EXCELLENT. I'm getting a lot of help with you and JLo . If you can't handle her feet yet, she was very accepting of rope around her hind end and hanging on hocks. She's a sharp mare, very intelligent

[@wjm9987]

you have done such an amazing job with her, she is very lucky to have found you.

[@egeegee7146]

Yup I was right. She is awesome.

[@JulianaBlewett]

I have not yet owned a horse but I have had lessons with a very good trainer. I have trained my dogs, and I have confidence that I could train a mustang. I know it's about gentling. It's about teaching horses to understand pressure and intent. I'm hoping to get a horse soon. Maybe I'll get lucky with the mega millions lottery.😂

[@Based808]

Training a horse is the opposite of training a dog

[@Based808]

Horses are trained by release; dogs are trained by reward.

[@bill2953]

Ryan, it's clear as a bell you and J-Lo are getting to know each other. Maybe next time in this situation, park all the "I know and this,what & why" and talk about you and the horse in the moment. It's okay to be vulnerable. She's a super smart horse...

[@marysalmon1592]

Thank you you make it look easy.

[@azpcox]

JLo’s stomps - is that something to address in the future? Like pawing? Still a beautiful horse. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride!

[@melanies.6030]

I think it's the flies.

[@samanthasmith995]

Definitely flies

[@clayoreilly4553]

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to express things in detail. Is a horse like this, that has been around humans, although at some distance, more difficult/dangerous than a mustang who has had almost no exposure to humans? (Familiarity breeds contempt?). She's gonna be a really nice mare if she works out. I'm glad she is getting this opportunity.

[@salt7625]

Horses, dogs, any animal folks need to normalize being able to admit when they can't be what an animal needs, it isn't always about growing your ability it's about what is best for you and the animal, if your horse is having issues do not be afraid to reach out to someone who knows more. It isn't you failing it's you and the horse growing even stronger

[@saltwaterpurl]

She cracks me up. She’s like, “Enough talking Ryan!”. 🤣 She’s got a strong will. With the right owner she will be a phenomenal horse, but the right owner is key.

[@melanies.6030]

Was this the horse they were going to do a genetic test on? Was there an update on results?

[@archangel807]

[@annalewis1502]

Thanks for reminding everyone about what's actually required to bring a wild horse in and domesticate them to a point where they're safe for others to be with. Humans naievity often results in such sad outcomes. Thanks for showing J Los development 👍❤️

[@Foxiepawstotti]

She is gorgeous.

[@brianhouseholder1074]

Help me understand the stomping?

[@dirksimmang]

flies

[@andreawimer4334]

She had a rope tied on her leg! Of course she is stomping. But she did not resist-freak out like many horses would.

[@robotbuster1487]

Sure it can be flies. It can be a gesture of protest, too. J Lo stomps he right/front leg almost exclusively, which I find interesting. A lot of horses protest stomp with the front/left most of the time. I've heard,,, the higher the draw upwards (hoof nearly touching the belly), holding it there for a half a second, then downward stomp, that's a cheesed off horse. J Lo stomps were more subtle, but evident. I used to "put my foot down" a lot. Then I hired a divorce attorney.😊 🐎

[@melanies.6030]

​@andreawimer4334 I think it's flies for 3 reasons: 1) she isn't focused on anything, or in particular Ryan, when she does it. 2) she isn't doing it when Ryan is using the flag or rope for pressure, 3) Ryan does not make any mention of it, which I think he would if it was a behavior that he thought was a protest, threat, or just impatience.

[@samanthasmith995]

Flies! She can only get them off by stomping or brushing them off with her nose, especially on front legs or she can use her tail to swish them on her hind legs.

She's so long with stubby legs. Reminds me of a massive dachshund.

[@lucyflanagan3628]

Why is she stamping her foot?

[@janeserovy666]

Before she gets too bothered, itch her with the stick. She'll think of it as a big itcher and not afraid of it.

[@shepherds.pie.youtube]

MAN you just said something really, really important. "Horses don't get scared BECAUSE of the pressure, they get scared when they don't UNDERSTAND the pressure." I'm a dog trainer, and this is something that hardly anyone understands in my world. Dogs don't get scared of pressure (aversives, negative reinforcement and positive punishment) unless they DON'T UNDERSTAND it. You don't see horses cowering in the corner of their paddocks because there's an electric fence. They know how to avoid it. They understand it. So they aren't afraid of it.
