Training Chicago (Part 1): horse with trust issues

Mia is invited to work as a horse behavioral therapist and trainer at the 1st Week of Welfare for Sports Horses in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
There, she had 5 days to train 8 horses of different ages and backgrounds.
This is Chicago, a Brazilian Sports Horse owned by Andrea Kober, a dressage instructor who works at the facility. Chicago is 6 years old and has a hard time trusting people, possibly because of hard events from his unknown past. Chicago has been under treatment for months from injuries from working as a young horse. He has developed a pattern of stress when asked to cooperate.

whenever Mia treats a horse, something inside of me is deeply touched and heals as well

[@joannehsieh4641]

This is so beautiful and so moving. The soul of a horse is so miraculous and forgiving! I don't ride horses but I love watching Mia's videos, they really help me.

What a stunning horse

[@sidilicious11]

Mia, the horse whisperer deluxe. I always am impressed and learn so much watching you help horse relax and trust.

[@clydecessna737]

I think it is possible that Mia is some kind of angel.

Another good job. Sometimes, marginal gains are the way into their mind. Well done!!!👍👍👍

[@Michele-W.]

Just amazing! Mia ❤️

[@sidhedances8582]

Brilliant ❤

I sent out a request earlier today about working with a sports horse, but before the start of its career to avoid experiences like the ones Chicago may have had... A verz interesting case to follow!

[@whenhorseschoose]

I hope you succeed, it is so unnecessary to start a horse in a hard way.

My Buster is like this runs away from me is sweet and kind but has trust issues he's a rescue he's coming along but I'll try this

[@whenhorseschoose]

If you need help, let me know -maybe we can do an online training session :)

Great job Mia! Do you have an itinerary and do you ever come to the New England states?

[@whenhorseschoose]

Yes you can see the upcoming clinics on my webpage: whenhorseschoose.dk I would love to come to New England. I am planning a new US tour in the fall 2024, so if you know people who wants to participate in New England I will definitely come :)

[@rakcityequine2.0]

You were in Chicago ❤️🤗.....and I missed you. I dont have social media so id only know on here.

[@marystern14]

This was actually in Brazil

[@whenhorseschoose]

I was not in Chicago, the name of this horse is Chicago, this was in Brazil. I am coming back to the US in the fall so let me know if you would like me to come to Chicago :)

He didn't cheat. He was completely flooded by all the people around him and had to flee.

[@barbeshoes3715]

I've seen her do some incredible things but she didn't make any progress with this horse thats why she brought the rope back in 😅

[@marystern14]

I can tell you didn't watch the whole episode

[@Safe_and_Easy_Horsemanship]

This is ridiculous. She knows nothing about horses.

[@susakreuzuxinformationdesi4311]

but what do you know...? just talking bad about others for no reason doesn`t help anything

[@joannehsieh4641]

Cheap way to try and get views for your own failing channel, good luck with that 😂

[@onedumbbaby]

Beautiful job! How long did this session with Chicago take?

[@whenhorseschoose]

30-40 minutes and then I worked with him over 3 days, therefore there will be a new video over each day I worked with him, next episode will be released on monday :)

[@onedumbbaby]

@@whenhorseschoose Fantastic! Thanks for replying. Looking forward to your visit to the U.S. next fall.
