TRAILER LOADING TRAINING

[@jeanlamberty6490]

JR is a special individual as far as I'm concerned. His patience and knowledge of the horses, to me, is amazing.

[@kyleefarmer8563]

Is no one gonna talk about how this channel is amazing it's educational and entertaining.

[@barnyardshenanigans8576]

No-one is busy 😊

[@bonsaidouglas9180]

​@@barnyardshenanigans8576no -one has 1/2 hr breaks don't they ? 😏😂

[@BetsyAmos]

I am amazed at your patience, just that you have soon much. Trying dogs is similar. You certainly don't want to do it when you aren't in a good mood and you don't want to lose your cool or your patience .

[@BetsyAmos]

Thank you for being inspiring, and reminding, at least some of us, to keep our patience, whether it is with animals, children, or co workers, lol.

Look at that amazing shine on that mares coat. She is gorgeous. Your mom is doing a wonderful job of caring for that beautiful horse

[@lenjoplus]

I love the real-world demonstrations JR does. Nothing fancy, just plain good horsemanship.

[@ramonarichwood9544]

She is on the stubborn side. You did good JR.

[@marycoker99]

Thank you for helping your mom load her horse. 😊

[@GailSchneider-y4u]

What a beautiful horse, she just shines

[@belindahopkins7875]

Filming training is so good so you can see how things work out😊

[@marisuew6392]

She's a stubborn beauty. YAY FINALLY!! WOW, what a good girl..❤❤❤

[@karenpetroski766]

Oh wow, she is a handfull. Thanks for sharing. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@mousiebrown1747]

That mare is stubborn as a Mule! 😂😂

[@aw072]

I’m so inspired by JR’s level of patience and ability to remain level-headed when training horses!! Loading horses in trailers can get really ugly very quickly, I’ve witnessed it myself, so kudos JR! You are truly a great trainer when you choose not to use force, but rather patient persuasion, encouragement and positive reinforcement! ❤️

[@kirstingooge3918]

I’m sure your mom appreciates you so much Jr! Great job helping Fancy’s fear and explaining to us non horse people with a positive way to help a horse overcome their fear. God Bless ☺️💜 As a momma of 3 children, 2 boys and a girl, I pray that as I get older my sons (especially) will be willing to help me without complaint or making me feel like a burden. I know my girl will ☺️ We’ve got some pretty amazing children we’re so proud of. To see their training come full circle would be such a blessing.

[@SusanG.-iq6ww]

I also had a young horse that wouldn't go in until i did. He trusted me if i went first! Very dangerous doing that but the horse didn't rush me and i climbed out a window. He would follow me anywhere but i had to be willing to lead. Took about an hour before i went in the trailor and he followed right away.

[@mychannel-bl2rw]

Your training is impressive. Your Mom is likely thankful for your assistance.

[@DipityS]

It was a treat to watch you work so effectively with her while maintaining calm to the point where you were responding to her body language - noticing where she was looking - it was wonderful. Fancy is named well, isn't she, she's a bit of a diva - I wonder if she has pretty privilege and has gotten away with things because she's a beautiful horse 😊

[@reeritz1280]

JR is amazing with horses....one lesson & that stubborn, want-her-way mare knew who was boss & accepted his way. What was a surprise is how his mom chose this wayward mare over all JR's sweet tempered mares to be her riding choice! Pretty is as pretty does...this one is showy, but wants to be boss! Take care out there!

[@marge2548]

Goodness, the patience you needed for this horse! 😅 Edit: This video also shows how important it is to be able to take the time one needs for lectures like that in order to not mess things up. Back when I was younger and still lived in the countryside, being around horses more often, every time a horse would not want to get into the trailer (and over here they mainly use the small ones), all were in a hurry, everything had to take place quickly, and most of the time, it was a horrible experience for both horses and most probably also all people involved. Glad to learn today, almost 40 years later, how to avoid it. Even though I certainly will never own a horse.

[@veevee7317]

a stubborn beauty

[@lindahonzell9788]

Your moms horse is gorgeous. We really enjoy watching you. You have so much patience with these horses

[@KristinaBenoit]

A lesson in patience and consistency while training horses. JR is pretty amazing with all of these horses.

[@mommapancakess]

Horses learn so fast it's amazing! The positive life direction tool, aka "flag" (for all the pansies out there), is very effective and you don't even have to touch them with it. Another great video JR. God bless you all!

[@Linda-k4v]

You are a good teacher. Boy is she spoiled. You need to take her home and work her.

[@dynnamaen9930]

I am not a horse person at all. I started watching their videos earlier this year and find it fascinating to watch the training, auctions etc. Very impressed with JR training this stubborn girl to get in that trailer.

[@thepamela050]

Beautiful mare regardless of her stubborn nature...Great job working with her...

[@sandrae4515]

She is BEAUTIFUL‼️

[@chesterraybon3442]

She is absolutely beautiful. Job well done 👏

[@kristyleger6938]

❤❤❤ You are a very special man, as I watched your video I thought of Monty Roberts. Some years ago I read his memoirs and how he trained horses. Your understanding of the animals is a gift. Your patience with her was amazing. Good on you for your kindness to all the animals in your care. Pleasing to watch. Thank you!!

[@moppeliini6614]

Beautiful horse. That was interesting. Thank you for explaining so well what you are doing and why. It all make sense.

[@deborahandrianos463]

My gosh her fur is beautiful ❤

[@lyndsayhammond6884]

Thank you for showing a horse that actually refuses and how you worked through it 👍🏼

[@catherineferguson7388]

Your amazing JR with the horses, she was stubborn to start with, now she,s good with it, let’s get this awesome family to a 100k. Really enjoyed this video, thank you xxx

[@mfcobb1]

She's like a real teenage girl pushing back.😅 Gotta have the patience of Job!

[@roselinethornguard1156]

The shine on her coat is amazing 😊

[@s.patrciabrady]

You just have the know how and expertise JR, when it comes to stubborn horses or really any horse it seems!! Great Job in teaching an older horse how to load without any trouble!! Thanks for sharing ❣️❣️❣️

[@karenw459]

I watching and holding my breath, praying that you do not get harmed by that gorgeous horse! She might very well be resisting because she thinks you’re gonna take her to the vet. She might’ve had a a negative experience!❤

[@pick10tennisjacquelinebogg23]

I'd resist, too, if I was going to the vet! Lol

[@Tosca767]

OMG! I let my dinner go cold watching this🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰enthralling 🥰🥰🥰

[@DeeE101]

That was really interesting. I have only ever saw someone hooking the lead rope inside and pulling on it just like how you had mentioned and it didn’t look like the horse had a good experience in that video. This made so much sense, even if it would have appeared to look mean to some people, it was pressure and release. The horse ended up with a positive experience and now mom can use the smaller trailer. ❤❤

[@chrismack5908]

First, JR, great technique to loading. Second, one of my horses, Michael, would casually walk up to the trailer but not load until I would find a small twig and tell him I'd use it if he didn't load, which he would. It turned into a loading ritual each time we we'd load him. 😊

[@doloresreynolds8145]

That’s funny!

[@sandyfrederick6793]

Beautiful horse.

[@cjacob9875]

Shes a beautiful! She is sassy & determined to do what she wants!

I'm really impressed by the quality of the training sessions. Beautiful creatures.

[@viktoriaannscotto6296]

very educational. i would have given up a long time ago. that's why you're the man

[@bonsaidouglas9180]

Never give up on ANYTHING ✝️

[@ScottiCranford]

I’m sorry but the side eye she’s giving you is so funny.. she’s like yeah I know what you want me to do but I don’t want to!!!

[@kitdog100]

Beautiful mare. Love learning from each and every one of your videos. Much love from Iowa ❤️❤️❤️

[@SusanG.-iq6ww]

It requires a lot of patients! I taught 2 donkeys to load. I had to blindfold one to get him in there!

[@redrose41000]

Beautiful horse, I think the flooring on the trailer is a deterrent, we used to put down a rubber pad. Good job being so patient with her, you know her best.

[@sandrae4515]

Wow! SUCCESS ‼️ Excellent JR Amazing TECHNIQUES Thank you for sharing with us.

[@connimace258]

Oliver so handsome. I just love his character. He makes me laugh. He's just awesome. He's also smart

[@judytinker3392]

You are a great teacher you teach us all a multitude of things your mothers horses a beautiful sorrow. Look at her coat can tell she is well taken care of, and brushed and all fancy is a stinker but she’s beautiful

[@janetwinslow5208]

Amazing! I enjoyed every minute! Horses are so awesome!

[@shopping4pearls239]

Wow! A load if work ending with positive results.

[@OneBrightLightTN]

You did an excellent job. It’s easy to see that she is a difficult and stubborn horse, you handled everything so well. I was getting angry at her just watching the video, but you kept your cool, very impressive

[@sheilahwise231]

Well she's wanting to get her way. Isn't she. Wow!

You are amazing!!! But i got to comment on those two dogs laying outside the building. All the stuff going on and those dogs didnt move. Hilarious 😂

[@pinkywilliams8063]

Great training video!!!

[@clairebourassa5943]

You are so patient with the horses JR ! Great work with that strong willed horse as it looks like it can be pretty exhausting 😅

[@TaptaClip]

Very interesting and what great skill, empathy and experience!

[@regiroettjer3874]

Great job JR keeping it real n not giving up!! Very proud of u n ur techniques!! 👏 There are so many different ways to get a horse loaded into a horse trailer n no one technique is absolute or correct. U have to use a combination of different methods and that usually always works! JUST LIKE JR SHOWED US!! 👏😉😁👍👌

[@debbieadkins2803]

I just want to say good job teaching that beautiful horse to load👍👍.

[@CapnBubbaa]

Nice to see your mom getting more involved in the you tube video's.. great video of a not so easy training session..

Just be nice to the gentlemen, Fancy. And theyll be nice to you.

[@candicerunyon2762]

Bummer man, sorry she was very obstinate. But, it is great education for other equestrians who have not experienced this yet.

[@Ze2Be]

That is one stubborn mare - WOW!

[@ellenvald7991]

Fancy is a beautiful horse. She might have taken offence to your comment about her bloodline :)

[@marilyndevault4819]

I got such a kick out of watching her get both front feet in the trailer then turn her head and look at JR. She is really being stubborn!

[@juliehoward7396]

Maybe shes saying "I feel claustrophobic" 😨

[@bethb8276]

Turns like ok is this good enough? 😂

[@susanbelida6981]

❤ Nice job with Fancy JR!! She's gorgeous and very smart.

[@gailsprangers9388]

It never ceases to amaze me what understanding you have of the horses mind. Loved learning from thos video😊

[@dianesouza2742]

She's gorgeous❤

[@Linda-k4v]

Man her color is something else.

[@sherryfox1481]

That’s a beautiful shiny horse. Love the color

[@jeanmarierock4603]

Wow! JR you sure know how to get a horse to do what you want them too. With patients and love.💗🐎

[@barb7128]

She is so Beautiful and such a PICKLE!!! JR you are so good with her and helping her learn this process.

[@donaldjackson4488]

I for one love this channel. The dialogue is very good and appreciated.

[@lbrezabek5690]

Fancy is beautiful!

[@arizonamom8773]

Watching her stubbornness was 😂 Great job JR👍 you sure know how to out think miss stubborn😊

[@TheSilverlady1980]

This is a stubborn no/yes/no situation. The flag is not abuse. Mare knows what is requested just being stubborn. Yes relief is inside takes a lot of patience to win this. A horse loaded so many times it’s just a different trailer. You do not want to have load up be associated with anger or meanness. He is using all the right signals, requests, reinforce request and relief. Amazing stubbornness.

[@danemorat3006]

Great channel, always learning something. Learned a lot about Missouri Foxtrotters ,from your breeding program

[@maureenstringer4362]

Excellent methods JR, and you achieved the desired results in a relatively short time. Our horses were carted in dads truck when we were young, he made a horsebox to fit the truck deck which could carry up to 5 horses. It was a simple matter of backing up to a suitable bank to load etc. unfortunately the truck broke down on the way home once and friends who had space in their float (trailers) offered to take me and my horse home. Well.......what a shambles, she’d never had to walk up a ramp into an enclosed area before and everyone was yelling and dragging her and even whacking her until I started bawling and said I’d ride her the rest of the way home, which I did. The poor darling, it was a dreadful experience for her. 😢 I just love your videos, thankyou so much. ❤

[@lousylvester923]

She is so pretty. Love her color

[@clarepaynick789]

Great training 🐴❣️🌟

[@G.G.999]

Had more issues with step up trailers. Switched to ramped doors and made a huge difference. Visual perception is so different for a horse. Steve Young Horsemansip deals a lot with trailer loading issues and uses pressure-and-release techniques religiously.

[@dianagann3203]

I love how Steve young controls the horse’s feet before attempting to fix trailing issues.

[@donnacourtenay7656]

I wish everyone would take their Steve Young answers over to his channel. This is Homestead Horsemanship. And there is no place for other-isms here.

[@brendamcalhany4355]

@@donnacourtenay7656wow, just wow!🙄 Just like JR said, there are different ways you could do this. The OP was just commenting on another discipline technique that could also get the job done. I don’t know about you, but I learn different things from different people. They weren’t being rude or disrespectful.

[@G.G.999]

@donnacourtenay7656 Sounds like you don't believe in options in finding horse problem solving issues. ALL EFFECTIVE HORSE PEOPLE HAVE HAD TEACHERS, otherwise there would be no horse behavior advancement in history. I made NO CRITICISM regarding Homestead Horsemanship's method of trailer loading. Each trailer is different, and each horse is different. Pressure and release seems to be the best method for most horses, and that's what was used here, so it was a compliment. Some people's DNA is just geared toward the negative in life, instead of being open to all possibilities (God's vast possibilities).

[@arieschick1]

Amen. Narrow minds vs broad minds. My thought was maybe the wrong trailer, not the horse.
