There Were So Many Interesting Horse Behaviors Today!

[@sandyhayden-bristow1382]

What a joy to watch them frolic and play. Watching them run is so exhilarating, I especially love hearing Joka's hooves pound in the sand when she is taking off. Gracie and Annie together gave me a subtle impression that Annie is helping Gracie find her 'play' that she missed in her early years. Probably over analyzing it, as it was a fleeting sensation, but it was a happy moment to see.

[@StableHorseTraining]

That could very well be and I sure hope so!

[@fallbrkgrl]

LOL...Gracie annoyed with her tail. So giggle worthy. Great horsey play time, Graeme! ❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎

[@ThisSideMe]

If I lived anywhere near you I’d happily pay to come just sit & watch your horses interactions all day, they’re so fascinating to watch.

[@heatherjohn2047]

I love how these horses communicate with you and with each other love watching these guys ❤💕🥰🤗

[@meercatt]

Nice to see Gracie have fun with no nervous aggression (?) with Annie in the beginning. Grace is such a perfect name for such an elegant looking horse. Arabians are just so exquisite looking… I have always found them to be the most beautiful breed. I could watch her run around for ages. Everyone else is looking fantastic too❤😊

[@amandamason6699]

Love watching horsey play time and individual personality behaviour. Joka’s stare down was funny 😆. I would love to see more of just Annie and Gracie together,their interactions were great to watch

[@kelsiecaswell9845]

3:48 you're right, look at little Annie block Gracie that way.. very cool!! and Gracie's cow kicks 4:04.. lol!!

[@kimberlybertrand2733]

What a beautiful treat, horsey play time. I just love them all! I can't tell you how much I love watching these beauties playing and your commentary. Annie with Luke is ADORABLE!

[@paulasmith8324]

It is always fascinating to watch how the horses interact with each other. Just love horsey play time. This was another great one. Annie and Gracie racing up and down at the beginning was such fun to watch. 👍👍🥰

[@sasmythe9350]

Thank you for the lovely visit with my horsie family.

[@joycefranco8852]

I love to watch all of your horses...even when they’re hyped up playing and galloping around they still have such soft eyes...beautiful happy horses!

[@miarobv]

Joka is amazing. She doesn’t let the big horses boss her around

[@Lexington6885]

Love Horsey playtime..always entertaining and educational. Thank you Graeme. 😊

[@StableHorseTraining]

My pleasure!

[@aryu-bts613]

Love seeing Gracie and Annie together, lots of great running, kicking up feet. Even Lena kicking up her heels today 😃 I love Joka, her staredown ,the "shorty"comment haha,she was really moving and grooving quite a bit there! I just wanted to go pet her, fluff up that poof of hers,😂. Can't wait to get the bracelet with her and Roni contribution💜 Thanks SO much Graeme we really appreciate the video of nose closeups, their daily antics 💙

[@firepenguin101]

Interesting how both Roni and Gracie are territorial of Lena. I wonder what it is about her?

[@dorfsteen]

Yeah the dynamic you have with these horses and they have with each other is really something special, great job.😀 you can tell their all happy and they like being there.

[@Hollybank5]

I love watching all the personalities come together at play time!!

[@leadbelly1495]

7:58… Annie !…❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@dawndastoli7323]

Annie came to you like... "Will you tell Gracie to chill? She's so defensive, and I just wanna play."

[@StableHorseTraining]

Hahaha.. Nobody tells Gracie what to do unfortunately! Not at play time

[@joycefranco8852]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@sarah.90]

Your horses, and your insights, make life better.

[@StableHorseTraining]

Thank you very much Sarah :)

[@tammyschnedler7545]

So happy to see Gracie make a friend ! 💖

[@farmslug]

"That's why it's called a 'hair-row'.". 🤣🤣 So silly and funny!

[@Wendy-bd9zu]

I like this so much! I fall asleep with this video last night and waking up today so happy that i have a few minutes left 😂 our horse is rolling a lot to now with the loos hair. Some time five times in a row.

[@tinachippas7075]

Such fun. A pleasure to watch.

[@ChrisS-fh7zt]

Love that Lena is probably the biggest and heaviest of all your horses, and yet she can completely roll over not one way but both.

[@michellecoleman5658]

Thank you for sharing your Beautiful Horses with us ❤️ I always learn something new from your videos 🙏❤️

[@StableHorseTraining]

You are so welcome!

[@birgit4314]

It's so enjoyed to watch the horses. They are so happy and funny. I love it when Annie rolls. Annie is such a sweet horse 🐎❤! Thank you for the video 👋🏻.

[@heidikortman2534]

Annie: Joka, how do I get to be lead mare?

[@denisewineberg3371]

I love them all...and that funny islandic yoka is so cool...I love her hair...(mane)

[@linseyvanochten2926]

I love your videos, I learn so much! I adopted a new pony (gelding) recently, and the gelding I already have is happy with a playmate BUT is soooo afraid that the new gelding get's to close to 'his' 2 mares he get's extremely stressed out (running after him a few meters, breaths very fast and starts to sweat). So for now they have a fence between them and everything is fine. Do you have any video's about dealing with insecurities and abandoment issues with horses? Couldn't find it so far. He lived from age 1 to 7 in a narrow stable next to a few others, but was never turned out or socialised properly the poor thing. He overcame a lot and can be a real horse now on our paddock paradise, but now his issues are surfacing again..

[@joannsmith9]

Itis very nice seeing Annie and Gracie enjoying each others company; but it is so sweet to see Gracie love Lena so much. It looked as though Annie was faster than Gracie today. QUESTION: Do you remember (possibly have a video) of when Gracie first arrived and WHO SHE MET FIRST? Luke the ambassador or Lena, etc.etc. ? ❤

Enjoying the interlude today. 😊

[@jennyhanley2297]

I loved watching Annie and luke playing together it was really cute..I love watching your videos :)

[@kathyleung1235]

Love Annie's colors! They are fun to watch

[@chuckprophitt4976]

Lol real exciting play time today... I needed this to start my day. Thanks for the fun time

[@StableHorseTraining]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@scratchgolfer12]

What a wonderful sight to behold! Ah, the sounds of running hooves…mmmm. Love the cow kicks.

[@xtinet]

I really enjoyed this video. I finally saw Gracie kick out at her own tail and I wondered, does it scare her, bug her or is it just a habit? She seemed to enjoy Annie's company but definitely didn't want to share Lena! It's always so interesting to watch them all interacting with one another, fun times!

[@suef4872]

Joka is so cute! Love that she has a big "J" on her face to match her name 😂

[@ironwolf5802]

Lena is such a show off with her rolling overs. She makes it look so easy to roll back and forth.

[@arlysdavis3694]

Love the play today. Just wondering to myself, if they were groomed/scratched a lot just before they were set out to play, would they still roll immediately?

[@StableHorseTraining]

They do

[@asherdem2105]

I think this is the most relaxing thing i have done all day...thank u

[@StableHorseTraining]

You're welcome 😊

[@starlenekalinski5633]

I love watching the herd behavior in horses. I have 4 of my horses and 3 horses hrer that are owned by family members. 6 are mares with one gelding. My cousin's always goes after the gelding, he doesn't take up for himself and my cousin's mare gets ran off by the other mares, so she goes after the gelding. My mares get along with the gelding and will go after the mare causing the problems. They are so beautiful when they are running and playing.

[@poyznelf]

I am sure Gracie and Annie alone is great to get their energy out. Gracie seems to be doing a few less of her spinning kicks Also, I wonder if Annie now prefers to roll in another horses roll spot because, if they rolled there successfully, I can too. Especially after her casting incident

[@StableHorseTraining]

That's quite possible too

[@nadinelataille7462]

Such fun to watch. QUESTION if you don’t mind. Do you ever get 2 horses at the same time and bring them to the arena? If not would that be because it is dangerous or just preference? Just curious, thank yo for sharing horsey time.

[@StableHorseTraining]

It's just not worth it to me for the risk/reward of doing it. I understand many people do it as they find it worth it to them to save that time. 2 minutes is nothing in the face of possible trouble, danger and/or injury if something goes badly.

[@nadinelataille7462]

@@StableHorseTraining makes perfect sense to me. Thank you for responding. I certainly like 1 at a time , so enjoy the release. Behaviors are fascinating

[@josefinnilsson9958]

What is Gracie doing at 4:06? Why is she kicking her legs out like that?

[@StableHorseTraining]

Not sure, she kicks her tail a lot for whatever reason. She's always done that.

[@josefinnilsson9958]

@@StableHorseTraining Very interesting behaviour. She looks almost to be doing it mindlessly (while distracted by looking at you)

[@martineinfrance]

I find that when only the girls are together, the boys are together, and the mix boys and girls are together, their behavior in each situation is so different. The interactions are different.

[@StableHorseTraining]

Yup, it's super interesting to watch and learn from for me

[@martineinfrance]

@@StableHorseTraining yes, they teach us a lot!

[@karenfindley939]

I thought you could make a video to the "Annie's Song" by John Denver. Just a thought. Loved Annie and Gracie together.

[@StableHorseTraining]

I would but the video would get flagged for a copyright violation

[@gailmcclellan6018]

She did well!

[@roygbivcreations5929]

How close are you to the moutains

[@roygbivcreations5929]

So much fun

[@rottiesrule78]

That’s prob good for gracie

[@vickywilliams8894]

I was just going to ask how you deal with bad behavior but you demonstrated that in this video

[@StableHorseTraining]

I did?

[@vickywilliams8894]

Mr wild and his bad attitude when you told him it sucks lol

[@StableHorseTraining]

ahh... yes, next up is five in the eye for sure

[@vickywilliams8894]

Do you know the outcome of the horse abuse case? I have been trying to remember the lady’s name.

[@StableHorseTraining]

Solstice Pecile, and no, I haven't been able to find a single thing about it.

[@meercatt]

It’s just a video.. get on with your life! 😂😂 words to live by❤😊

[@chuckprophitt4976]

I love to watch Yoka get spunky and put Mr. Wild in his place. She's funny

Talk about Born to Run😎

[@pamw.8676]

How often are the horses ridden?

[@StableHorseTraining]

not as much as some people think they should be

[@sammy510]

Spicy Joka!

[@joniatoms9798]

Annie looks like a big girl next to Gracie

[@kkdoc7864]

Lots of Lena snorting. Could that be from getting sand up her nose aw well as a release? Another question….. Do they roll in their paddocks or prefer the arena. Looks like today with all that lovely wet sand, we’re seeing a lot of rolling. Must feel great!

[@StableHorseTraining]

Mostly the arena. It's possible they get a bit of sand in their nose

[@dorfsteen]

What's the scoop on horses bodily function do they just poop wherever they standing and pee wherever they're standing or do they have a certain spot they like to poop and all that poop etiquette?🤔😐😁🙄

[@dorfsteen]

Oh yes are they careful not to roll in a spot where someone already pooped and peed?🙃😨
