FIRST DAY OF TRAINING ON A STALLION THAT'S NEVER BEEN RIDDEN😯

[@pwd1679]

Your auction comment is right on. I have a friend that runs a rescue. She goes to the auctions buying horses that have been neglected, abused and starved. Several months later the horse is unrecognizable, healthy, soft and gentle.

[@teresaspringer4129]

Jerome does a good job with horses. You can tell he loves them. That’s the kind of person that should own Rowdy.

[@RuthAnnnMorris]

Jerome has that touch with Rowdy! I like the way he brushes and touches Rowdy’s feet. Of course, Rowdy is a sweetheart of a stud horse. But WOW, Jerome has the magic touch!

[@DS-ky9dl]

Rowdy is so mellow...I think he and Jerome are a perfect fit.

[@Kathleensailorgirl]

Jerome is such a blessing for this horse. Rowdy is responding to Jerome’s calm and confident approach.God Bless you all 🙏🙏😊

[@margaretogg4004]

I was told that paint horses that have the little spots on them always throw paint falls matter what you breed it to whether it’s true or not I have no idea I have seen some mirrors that had the spots on them and all of their babies did come out as paints. That is one beautiful horse.

[@kathleenmcginley4827]

Love that Jerome will be helping you out. That means his little brother Jessie will be tagging along, asking questions and helping you narrate. Those boys are a perfect. They will be so much help with Blake gone, as they love horses as much as you do.

[@lizziesangi1602]

That's the great "thing" about being brought up on a farm - the kids - and when you were a kid woke up every morning and RAN - Then you get older and the snow is up to the kids' heads and they don't want to come up from the barn(s), so you put 'em under your arm and carry them and when you get up to the house, all the older ones who had you running around, give you dirty looks 😂 Nothin' like it!

[@edwinschlee8374]

Jerome and Rowdy would make a good team! He is amazing with horses!

[@terrifrye2803]

I’m so happy Rowdy is getting the partner he needs. Go Rowdy When I first saw him and a little of his character, I had a hunch he was a good horse. ❤️

[@angelmorris2130]

I never realized just how beautiful Rowdy is. I mean, I thought he was a pretty horse, from a distance, but up close, WOW, he is absolutely gorgeous. He will make a fine horse for Jerome. As far as breeding him with the Arabian, oh yeah! I used to have an Arabian/ Paint cross. She was AWESOME. I do believe that if I had asked her to climb a ladder for me, she would have darn sure gave it a try. I could do anything with her. She was my best friend through jr. high and high school. Sadly, I got married and moved, and left her on mom's farm and while I was gone, she passed away.

[@margaretporkolab7166]

my Arabians were honest and kind.

[@coraclements4562]

Jerome seems to be good with horses and a good friend, its good you have someone who can help out especially with Blake leaving soon.

[@lindamaldonado6807]

This is a good partnership. With Blake leaving on Mission, Jerome and brothers can really be a big help.

[@grandymommy4531]

I'm looking forward to seeing Jerome riding Rowdy, and also, to seeing any babies from this beautiful and gentle horse.

[@Ciciye12]

Jerome really is a horse whisperer. He is so confident with the horses, when you talked about it, I could see what you meant. It show the love and respect to the horse which as you say makes them feel confident with Jerome. Also the love and care Rowdy had previously shows in his ability to trust humans. That is not always the experience animals have, but you can see what a difference it can make. ❤

[@Ciciye12]

Rowdy seems very good natured for a stallion and excited about the new things happening.

[@donnadowning3563]

Jerome is a born horseman. Hard to find those guys anymore.

[@carlapierle8623]

Rowdy is so beautiful. I bet he makes pretty babies! I can't believe how well he's doing so quickly. I think it's a testament to Jerome's confidence and calmness. Seems like Jerome would be the perfect owner for Rowdy.

[@laurierobertson3504]

I think it would be awesome that Jerome and his brothers get all 3 of the horses. They know what they're doing and how to handle the horses. And they seem to love them already. I'm also glad that Jerome is able to help you out while Blake is gone.

[@rosiedepetro8674]

I would really love to see a full video of just Jerome training the horses. Maybe put a mic on Jerome & let him do his thing lol. This guy is amazing. Jerome & Amry both has great skills with horses

[@dianaaforeman4030]

THIS GENTLEMAN IS AWESOME WITH HORSES..

[@melaniemccoard2359]

The confidence and assurance in Jerome's actions get communicated to the horse, clearly.

[@Seek-God-First]

It’s fun and inspiring watching Jerome working with horses. His calm, and caring no nonsense approach is good for the horses.

[@Pambo101]

You ought to just hire Jerome in Blake’s place, for help around the farm. Rowdy is a beautiful horse

[@ssminnow16]

Gerome does such a great job, I think your son is awesome at this, but so is Gerome! What a God given talent he has. And it’s beautiful to watch God work through his people!

[@Alex-horsman]

Very professional man, he knows how to train horses.

[@judydrouhard2651]

Jarome is amazing. He certainly has a love for Rowdy and Rowdy sure trusts Jarome. 🥰

[@laurencerussell3947]

Alan you are doing a wonderful thing on your ranch ,it would be nice to see a foal out of Rowdy

[@shortofvintageoldstead4210]

Thanks for bringing us along on these trainings with Jerome! He is a Horse Whisperer for sure!

[@susansuhy1416]

I agree!

[@StefanieJafay]

Jerome is awesome! You had not mentioned before that he was papered, being such a kind mannered stallion like that and in the right hands he will be a fun horse for Jerome. If you've never ridden a stallion, you should. So much fun!

[@mikeandmiriamkondroski7533]

Jerome is good for the horses . He knows his stuff. Best wishes

[@PennyGarland]

The people you got those horses from did great ground work with them. Jerome is a great nonsense trainer and such a connection with the horses. The horses are so calm with Jerome. Animals know people. Jerome is a good man.

[@kelly-jolewis3902]

I love paints. Especially black and white paints. When I was a kid and would go to my grandparents, I would run to the neighbors to talk and play with this beautiful black and white paint gelding. He was so gentle with me. His name was Diablo. One time I went and he was gone. I cry the whole time I was at my grandparents. It broke my heart because he was my best friend. It took along time to get over him. RIP DIABLO.

[@susanmathis7561]

Thank you for giving a better look at Rowdy!! He is a well mannered stud horse! He has settled in and Jerome's a good fit to work with him! Thank you for Sharing 💞

[@darlenestratton6825]

Great to see this partnership. He trusts Jerome so much

[@megslittlehouseinthecountry]

Jerome is really good with the horses. Rowdy is responding to him so well. 💖💖💖

[@lovenamoore4696]

Rowdy is beautiful. Jerome is very talented. Its a good match.

[@cecile7659]

Jerome is so talented. He did such a great job with the Arabian, a very high strung breed, and now with an older stallion. It warms my heart to see him work his wonderful ways with my absolute favorite of your horses so far. Rowdy 🥰

[@vivianwinford3681]

Jerome works quickly and with some force which the horse seems to really take to and understand. 💘 🐎

[@Carole2Kittens]

I don't think Rowdy tried to buck out of rebellion or even fear. It seems it just kind of surprised him because he'd never felt anything like that before. But Jerome's quick action stopped Rowdy before he had a chance to get out of control. That's what sets Jerome apart from just an average trainer. He has such great instincts. He also is so amazingly calm and at one with the horse he is working with. I hear people calling different horse people "horse whispers" but I think Jerome is one of a few that really deserve that honor. I think he IS going to make a great saddle horse out if Rowdy. 👍🐴❣

[@lizziesangi1602]

Rowdy is learning to have Jeromes' hands all over his body - hoofs, mouth, legs, mane - Jerome always stops to rub his hands over Rowdys' body every turn - a little walk, a big fluid rub over his body, not "pats". Rowdy and all horses getting used to having the hands and arms rub them down in big strokes is trusting and calming behavior for everyone that comes into contact with that horse. When two or more horses put their muzzles together they're recognizing each other. Jerome runs the pad all over him and lets Rowdy smell it - so he smells himself. All of this is sensory. Jerome is one in a million! Great tutorial video!!!

[@patshipp9195]

It's nobody's business what you do with horses, rescued or not. I love your way of life. Love your wife's cooking too. 💖💖🙏🙏💖💖

[@susangotchy2887]

I'm so glad that Jerome is working with you Alan training rowdy what a blessing. I was hoping that would happen. Jerome is sure natural with horses if anybody can do it it's him.

[@alisontabernor6332]

Rowdy is an amazing horse and Jerome certainly knows how to train a horse 😊

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

We really enjoy watching Jerome work with the horses.

[@myearthlytreasures3]

Jerome is a great horseman! What a future this young man has with horses. God Bless you for giving him these opportunities.

[@Skipper-W]

Alan, I think you have found Rowdy’s new owner. Rowdy is an awesome stallion! Jerome is an awesome young man. What a pair they would make!❤️🐴

[@martyburd6127]

WOW. What a team together. Rowdy is such a beautiful horse. Jerome is amazing with him.

[@brendadescoteau1853]

Jerome is awesome. Rowdy is a fine looking horse!

[@cassandragriswold7521]

He's a natural Horse Whisper. Beautiful horse!

[@joannalhami]

Jerome is great! Loved the video

[@micheledavis7591]

He looks like he has quarter horse in him too. A lot of paints are registered with both associations. Very nice build.

[@yea_zurrr3355]

You are a great understanding man, giving him the opportunity to train these horses and knowing they are going to good homes. Jerome is awesome with horses, I like it especially him working with his brothers and passing on his knowledge down to them. ❤🐴💪

[@ramonakosisky4784]

Jerome is a horse whisperer they know his spirit and your paint stallion would’ve awesome breaded to your paint mare you should try that I think the baby would be beautiful

[@livefreeordie2688]

Love watching Jerome work horses. He and his brothers are great addition to this channel. Whoever named Rowdy got it so wrong. He's one of the most chill stallions I've ever seen. He's a beautiful horse.

[@Ciciye12]

He appears to be an amazingly good natured fellow.

[@loribaker8339]

Jerome has such confidence in working with any horse. Good that you found a good horseman to help you out while Blake is gone. Rowdy is so pretty. Can't wait for warm weather to see Rowdy all slicked off and given a bath! By then, Jerome will have Rowdy made into a big puppy!

[@Ako-Ako44]

Jerome - you are just the perfekt horseman 🥰. Hope you Will get revarded for you’r job🙏. (Sorry my english)

[@Barefoottaz1]

Jerome is a pleasure to watch. The care he feels for these horses shines through. He needs his own youTube channel.

[@kar702]

It’s a match made in horse heaven ❤️❤️❤️

[@RetiredCAGrandma]

Jerome seems like one of those people that just has a way with horses. Scott Spears, the man that trained my stallion in cutting was the same way. He was truly my horses person.

[@anitamartin953]

I have no doubt Jerome can make this horse do most anything! They already seem to have a bond

[@melissahilbrand]

I tell you what, you better be careful. I’m likely to try to steal jereome to Texas to start futurity barrel horses for us! We could always use this kind of colt starter around north Texas!!!!

[@tammymarlin7899]

Jerome is amazing. 😊These two are for each other.😊

[@vickilynn1204]

Jerome is awesome. A very nice young gentleman

[@FisherzofMen777]

Rowdy has amazing markings!! ❤❤❤

[@FisherzofMen777]

☆GOD BLESS HORSES❤ & THEIR PEOPLE❤

[@donnabowers1317]

Jerome definitely has the gift and temperament for training. Animals can feel that. I wish him the very best and blessings to all of you.

[@debbycolflesh7892]

This young man is awesome. He has the touch.

[@starlenekalinski5633]

Jerome trains a lot like I do. I had an Arabian stallion that was one of the sweetest horses I ever owned. My kids got in the stall with him while I was cleaning my mare's stall and was playing with his tail. When I saw them behind the stallion my heart stopped and before I could tell them to get out of his stall, he stepped back and felt one of the kids behind him and went forward and turned towards the kids and put his head down and started nuzzling the kids. He never offered to bite or kick anyone. I like riding stallions.

[@donnaanderson3527]

jerome is the GOAT

[@normajanderson7304]

(From Rhode Island) It was a great pleasure seeing Jerome try out Rowdy in this session. Rowdy liked it too.

[@katherinegregory4783]

I think Rowdy is a just a gorgeous guy! My dream horse is a Gypsy Vanner so no big surprise I think Rowdy is the cats meow!

[@scottfindley7284]

Jerome is AMAZING WITH HORSES and Rowdy is BEAUTIFUL. To me they're a PERFECT FIT. 🐎🐴🐎🐴❤️❤️❤️

[@billharris3335]

Beautiful paint love seeing him learning his place!

[@marielouisemulder4647]

Jerome knows exactly what he is doing . ..great job .

[@mlgauss60435]

WOW! Jerome is a wonderful trainer! ❤️ AND that paint is gorgeous!

[@sherylhypes6290]

Jerome has a special bond with the horses he works with. You are right about him connecting with them on a level that works well. I'm glad that he's going to be helping you during Blake's mission. He's not afraid of hard work and he certainly loves everything about horses. I'd say he and Rowdy are a match made in heaven. For him to gain the trust and respect of a stallion that fast, shows how talented he is in what he's doing. I can't wait to see more of them in the future.

[@Ciciye12]

He is also incredibly good looking and sturdy.❤

[@nancysimpson4246]

He is so patient and that’s what it takes for a horse. It’s never had work done to it matter what you’re doing to the horse everyone knows that I’m sure he is so good. This man can make very good money if you wanted to train your horses he’s awesome.

[@sharonhooks9071]

Jerome is amazing, you can see the love he has for Rowdy. ❤

[@caroledelancy4556]

Jerome is awesome and so is Rowdy. They would be a great team. The trust is building from Rowdy. ❤

[@lindacrist2620]

Love, love, love watching Jerome and this horse. Rowdy is a gorgeous paint. I hope Jerome falls in love with Brady so you can both benefit from breeding him.😊

[@nancylee1625]

Jerome speaks their language and it’s awesome to watch them interact.

[@p0llywillis806]

Well there you go Mr. Alan. There’s some fine help for you this summer while Blake is gone. Jerome is the truth when it comes to working with horses!!! That ol stud horse is really respecting him. I think those two will make a great team!!

[@sharonyoung8251]

It’s good you have Jerome around with Blake going on Mission.

[@sharonhavron3000]

What a beautiful horse. Jerome is incredible.

[@ds3333]

Jerome is good. He works a little fast for me, but I know time is scarce. He is a blessing for sure. Rowdy is a beautiful paint.

[@KathyCoker53]

Rowdy did better than i thought he would. Jerome is great!!!

[@melodywunschel3064]

Yes make it happen Alan, Jerome is exactly what Rowdy needs

[@dlynnanderson4474]

[@SisterGoldenHair111]

Keep doing what your doing Route 66. Saving and homing horses ❤ people making comments need to ask themselves’ What are they doing to help homeless and abused horses out there.

[@vickimeyers2672]

WOW! Excellent work, Jerome! Rowdy is a very handsome stallion.

[@lorengordon9626]

Love how he interacts with the horses.! At least you have dry ground. We've had nothing but deep mud and water for the last 3.5 months with only 3 days of dry ground a month ago.

[@karenthomas2302]

Jerome reminds me f my youngest son, has horse blood in him. lol a air of confidence of horse and human as one. A true gift. Tfs

[@carolaker6079]

I think that Jerome has a way with horses and he will make rowdy a great stud horse. Blessings to u all.

[@trenarexroad4083]

Ohhhh, I'm so tickled that Jerome is working with Rowdy😊😊😊❤❤❤ I hope you breed Rowdy with some of your mares, would love to see some more like him😊❤

[@ellliwhite8773]

Hello family how are you all doing? Blessings. Your new farm helper Gerome and his two brothers are an Amazing help to your farm. Gerome is so tender and loving to the hors s, his skills are at another level. You can tell he has a special and close relationship with each horse, he allow the horses to introduce themselves to him, he respects them, and them he shows them they can trust him. He's definitely " The horse whisperer on Route 66. He's a valuable asset to your flock, what a talented young man. I also enjoy your relationship with Gerome and his brothers. You can tell Gerome little brother really looks up to Blake, and my kids really enjoy watching Blake's relationship with the new camera man. He's adorable, and seems very interested in learning everything he can from you, Blake, and of course his big brother Gerome. Congratulations on adding someone as Talented as as caring as Gerome, and his brothers. Oh God bless you for giving Gerome those horses for him and his brother's. It's almost unbelievable how fast Gerome, can tame the horses, he's so gentle.!!

[@calamityj5359]

Rowdy's beautiful and also is a good size for Blake ... Great job, Jerome-way to go!

[@debannas4567]

I’m sure you will do what’s best for your situation, Alan, but I certainly would LOVE to see a “match-up” with rowdy and duchess❤❤! I so wish I were younger and able to have a beautiful horse like those two❤💕
