i'm going to probably get more info and join your patreon you do so good doing horse training

[@lorilenz7544]

Thank you again she is doing better. Hopefully I can keep doing what is best for her. I think all my other horses must be left brain.

[@marilyn-q7l]

I got a half starved feral rescue horse one year ago. She was terrified and untouchable. I subscribed to Ryan's page, did his fundamentals over and over and wrote and asked him questions to which he always responded. Well, one year later she will run to me whenever I enter the pasture. I can touch her anywhere on her body without her flinching and she will lower her head to accept the halter. It has been enormously gratifying to understand this lovely mare and form a relationship with her. Thank you, Ryan.

[@Animal_lover123-x7w]

Wow, what a beautiful story. Ryan Rose really knows horse behavior. You did the best thing to make a loving connection with your horse. Kind thoughts xx.

[@bethewalt7385]

That is so great! Genuinely happy for you and your mare, very exciting and fun days ahead for the two of you..

[@HaNnAh.FaRlEy777]

I love watching him teach, thats an amazing testimony too:)

[@foggybummers]

I’m at the start of a similar journey with two rescues. As with Ryan, your comment has inspired me to keep on keeping on. Confident we will all get there in the end.

I am over 75 years old now. At the age of 7, local , and soon not so local, horse owners were calling my dad or my uncle (uncle was a farrier with a very good, and wide, reputation) to ask them to please fetch me over to catch their horses and ponies. Sometimes they asked me to 'show' them how I did it. A 7yo little girl trying to explain to grown people - often very experienced riders! - how I caught their horse, or their child's pony, and how to do it again ... I didn't even begin to understand that I was doing something radically 'different' until I was in my later teens. I learnt how to do what I did at the age of 6 - 7, by spending hours and hours of the school summer holidays watching a group of horses and ponies, one of which I had been told I could ride if I could catch it and lead it out of the field. What I ended up doing was very similar to much of what Ryan Rose does in this video. I've always been able to handle 'awkward' horses; goodness knows why as I'm not the best rider in the world, being entirely the wrong build and shape and very risk-averse!

[@teacup2132]

i‘m so impressed. how can you have such a seemingly instant connection to horses? it‘s like he really speaks their language

[@garylawless3608]

There is nothing more frustrating than a horse that doesn’t want to be caught. Over the years, I have had to deal with quite a few two and three year olds that had been put out in a paddock since they were weaned, and never touched during that time. When first brought in to the training yards, it was necessary to halter some while they where in the ‘crush’. Easy for us, but bad experience for them, and it took a lot of work for them to be comfortable while being haltered. This beautiful little filly looks pretty calm and Ryan shows great intuition and knowledge here, and as usual his methods make sense, and are safe for horse and handler. Groundwork is the key to success in this situation. Another great tutorial. I love Ryan’s channel, as it brings back so many memories for me now that I can’t ride or handle horses anymore, due to age and health issues. Greetings to all from Australia 🇦🇺!

[@medina3420]

I did this technique today to catch 2 scared horses one at a time. Worked like a charm. took a little time, I was patient and they got very close I slowly moved in and put my arm over their head. Got them. My dad watched saying why are you doing that you are scaring them. you don't kw what you're doing. you kw... 😂 After few minutes when the first one walked close to me. He said, I'll be damn, how the heck did that work. 😅 I SAID RYAN ROSE IS THE 🐎 G.O.A.T He said who? 😂😅🤣

[@hoptoit5910]

She’s a beautiful looking mare

[@kodiakkeith]

I had the same issues with my neighbor's horses that I learned to ride on. It was a huge hassle cornering them to get a lead on them. When I got my own horses a couple of years ago I began giving them each half a carrot when I let them out of the pen each morning - hold up a lead and when they allow me to put it around their neck they get a carrot, then I remove the lead and allow them to head out and graze. Now, every time I hold up a lead at any time of day they dash up to have it put on them. Conditioned response, just like Pavlov's dogs. You don't have to give them a treat every time, just enough to create the Pavlovian response that a lead is a "good thing."

[@anna9072]

What he said about doing something pleasant when you first catch up a horse made me remember something that happened when I was taking horse classes in college. I was assigned a black mare named Princess. She didn’t like being caught, she usually gave me the runaround for a while before she let me halter her up to go into the indoor arena where we were having our classes. But one week it was spitting sleet with a nasty little wind behind it, and when she saw me approaching with the halter she came straight to me and basically shoved her head in the halter. It was like “oh, we’re going inside? Hell yeah, sign me up.” I should say she was not hard to catch because she was not well trained, she just knew I was a novice and would try me to see what she could get away with.

[@clogl]

its so refreshing to see somebody practice what they preach, actually taking the horse to eat and relax

[@tamsentempleman1544]

This was the most touching of all your lessons. It was lovely to see how quietly this mare arrived at trusting you.

[@spfisterer3651]

Great video, somehow this one really got me. I think the mare needs more professional help than this one time with Ryan but then - I am pretty sure the owner already suspected this and it's why she got the evaluation...

[@brigittesworld]

Great video. Shes seems like a sensitive horse that appreciates the time taken for her to feel comfortable.

[@TheWayshower]

"Find your herd game" @19:04 ... they need to know that you are the alpha and will keep them safe ... they're super sensitive to energy, so if you doubt yourself they will know it and react accordingly ... love your videos Ryan!

Hey Ryan .. love the way you wrap away your string halter without even looking at it while you speak. Then you grab the two longer sides and let the rope slide off your forearm and onto the two long pieces. Thanks for that demo too !

This is just INCREDIBLE progress. I'm honestly blown away by how effective (and accurate) Ryan's techniques are ... partly bc if I were asked if only the description of this would work (based on exp w other animals) I'd've said hell NO.

[@dsantos21100]

Great video. Love hearing your insight on where the horses mind is at. I always learn something new from you. Always hear, disengage the hind quarter to relax the horse but didn’t really know or understand why that works.

[@donnac.1609]

Great information! So many horses passed along as broke or trained without trust being a part of their handling.

I have 2 young studs that are half brothers.. both are great at catching me . One is very quiet once he does and respects my space well but the other is constantly in my space and has to grab my clothing. He has is always threatening to bite but has not so far. Mostly just very crowding but does back with voice command . He also steals my tools when cleaning his corral. .(the boys are 4 days apart and 3 years old) any advice would be greatly appreciated

[@senka2578]

I never appreciate when people claim ‘my pet doesn’t like me’ when it is clear the reason for the lack of desired contact is a lack of proper socialization. It’s not all about you. If you want something from your horse, dog, whatever work on it. I have a very ‘spicy’, hyper and opinionated Corgi. She can get very mad when she doesn’t get what she wants. I have made it clear what is and what is not acceptable. And, I have sought to develop a relationship of trust and understanding. She is still a puppy and has a lot to learn. I also have things to work on. One problem at a time. Unfortunately, I am the only one in my household that gets it, which has caused some frustration. Not in my dog as much as towards my family.

[@lorilenz7544]

I have only had her seens April, then we learned she had ulcers. Under vet directions I had to just let her be a horse while she was getting supplements. After the 60 days we started doing the training I have used with all my horses. Her personality is so different then my 4 other horses. That is way I reached out to Ryan.

[@evelynwaugh4053]

​@@lorilenz7544I think it takes time for many horses to 'like' their owner. Over time the positive associations build. But many of them haven't been in situations where they learned people equal good things. They could have previously learned people equal hard work, discomfort, confusion. If horses had a lush pasture and some buddies, they wouldn't even need us, so it's not surprising they're not hard wired to be receptive to us. To a horse, the world is full of predators. Don't take it personally, in time she'll warm up.

[@finngamesknudson1457]

Your story makes me remember my lab from years ago. She would sit by me and visibly struggle to keep her tongue to herself while she’d lick everyone else. My wife thought the dog was stupid because I hadn’t taught her to not lick. I thought she was actually a bit intelligent as she distinguished between me and everyone else. Knew she wouldn’t get pets or attention if she licked me but it worked differently with everybody else. Was hilarious watching her sit there, slowly turning her face toward me and then visibly straining to pull away. On third generation of dogs after her and I still miss her.

[@kathykellison4421]

Nice

[@conniewesterman3308]

Dumb question: being old school, I always thought of that tool you're using as a longe whip. Is that no longer "politically correct" verbiage, or is a "stick and string" actually different somehow?

[@isabellepanza5679]

I think it's more regional/discipline differences on what you call it? The Western barn I learned to ride at called it a stick and string, but the English barn I'm at now everyone says longe whip. But maybe there's a more nuanced difference that someone else will bring up.

[@viceb7]

It's the same tool, but more acceptable to avoid using a whip term these days since whips have been used as such aversives

[@californiadreaming567]

I’m glad I don’t own a horse because it looks really difficult

[@user-fb3pu3qx3t]

Why does she keep lifting her front feet and sort of stamping? Is it nerves? Or might they be painful?

[@mariem4614]

Flys probably

[@JulianaBlewett]

She's not paying attention, either.

[@mollyjones4165]

Most the time daily hand feeding will tame animals. It is a matter of feeding them with your hands. Get them to eat out of your hands. Soon they like to be near you. That is a good place to start with mistrustful animals because eating out of the hands builds trust.

[@micheledavis7591]

Hand feeding them often makes them pushy which is not a good thing.

[@viceb7]

​@@micheledavis7591obviously stop before pushiness happens

[@epona9166]

This video disturbs me because I feel like I'm pretty intuitive when it comes to horses, and I truly don't understand what running over and claiming her spot if she turns away from you momentarily is supposed to accomplish. I remember the first video I saw where you did this. It was in a clinic setting and the horse was not sensitive like this. The horse was paying zero attention to you. And I KIND OF understood that by running and claiming his spot, which you did over and over again, you were showing him that you were the place to be, where he could relax. But I just barely got it. Not really!

[@childcrone]

Watching this one again with an ear for when he talks about timing and the differences in the way he's playing it with this horse will probably give you a little more each time. :~)

[@kidstuff44555]

I think it's just Ryan's version of "join up" or "hooking on". Same principles, just slightly different techniques. It's all about "Making the right thing (looking at the human) easy, and the wrong thing (turning away from the human) difficult." So, pressure when the horse turns away, leaves or tries to block you out. Relief from pressure when the horse looks at you, relaxes or wants to be with you.

[@isabellepanza5679]

To me, it makes the most sense when I compare it to turning horses out together. If I turn out the dominant lead mare last, the first thing she does is very similar to what Ryan's doing. She chases everyone off the food, and they better have an eye on her or she'll chase them until they move when she at them.

[@viceb7]

You need to look at some more training info then lol it's pretty simple groundwork honestly

[@childcrone]

@@kidstuff44555 It might be a subtle distinction, but what I've seen of 'join-up' and 'hooking on' typically is more coercive. Ryan's way here makes being with the human attractive.

[@marksheffer625]

The woman wants to get rid of the horse .Horse is not the problem

[@epona9166]

I agree that the horse isn't the problem. But maybe she just has no clue how to relate to the horse. Sometimes it's not intuitive or logical to a human! I'm that way with kids 😂

[@catwoman2596]

If she wanted to get rid of the horse, she wouldn't have contacted Ryan.

[@lisawilson3360]

Maybe she doesn't learn at the same rate that others do

[@childcrone]

I don't think she said she wants to. I think she wants to give the horse the comfort and life skills to get along with someone else in the event she needs to.

[@Terry-lh8cn]

I didn't like her approach to the horse. "Doesn't like me touching her ears" so she touches her ears.

[@lindahollister5530]

Pretty.
