Steve, I love how kind you are to each horse, even when you must "firm up". After watching your videos, I always walk away with new principles for interacting with people. Thank you so much for what you do. You also make me laugh.

You make my day. Watching you take such gentle care of these horses. I've always disliked how rough people are with them. Rodeo's, horse racing, Caliente, Del Mar, Los Angeles, etc. I'm always watching. Love horses. Thank you for sharing.

Love your videos, and I’m saying «hi» from my two lovely horses and say «THANKS» as well. You have trained their human (yeah, me..😉) to understand how to communicate with my horses! It is all in the details, and actually becoming aware of my body language, and timing. Brill! And send a huge hello to your lovely wife as well, love her personality too. Keep up your great work. I am sure you are and have saved SO many horses..and people. ❤❤❤

I love how its all broken in to step by step and if you had lots of time and days you could just advance step by step slowly until its good. I also like the rope on the back leg idea as its always a bit iffy on the very first ever pick up but the rope adds that extra step. Brilliant!

ANOTHER WAY TO TEACH A HORSE TO PICK UP ITS HOOVES AND STAY SAFE, IS RUN YOUR HAND DOWN TO THE HORSES CHESTNUT AND PINCH IT TILL THEY PICK IT UP. THE MINUTE THEY LIFT IT EVEN A LITTLE LET GO OF THE CHESTNUT LIKE ITS A HOT POTATOE, THEM RUB AND PRAISE THEM. THEY LEARN FROM THE REALISE. EVENTUALLY THEY WILL LEAVE IT UP FOR YOU TO WORK ON. DOING THIS, IN VERY SHORT TIME YOU WILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM SOLVED. GREAT JOB STEVE ON THAT LOVELY COB HORSE. Susan

Does the same method apply to a horse that does lift up his feet but won’t let you hold them up and yanks them out of your hand right after he picks them up ?
@SallyGreenaway
2 жыл бұрын
yes. You can gently loop a rope around his fetlock (do not knot it!) and apply a gentle pressure to lift his foot. As soon as he rips his foot away, keep the pressure on the foot with the rope even if he steps and moves. As soon as he stops moving and goes to lift his foot, immediately release the gentle pressure from the rope and hold his foot - be very still and quiet so that it's a nice pressure release/reward, he'll get the idea...
@OnceUponaTimeline

When the horse does unwanted movement, he just has them spin around (yield the hind end) until they get tired of it, ie if they move on you, you move them even more until they get tired of moving and prefer to stand still. YOu saw that in this video.

Good for you, and Gypsy B.,Steve ! Btw, some people appreciate horse feathers as correct and beautiful on some breeds ... but frankly they drive me nuts. I worry about not seeing wounds, etc., on the lower leg, about tangles and knots preventing care, and about farriers having hair in the way of clippers and files ... and pulling hairs has got to be unpleasant for the horse. (Ah, as long as I'm on a roll here, also worry about long forelocks blocking horse's vision, and then stepping on long tails) Would this horse benefit, do you think, from feather trims, at least until he is comfortable with daily hoof and farrier care ?

And then the horse spooks with the rope around his feet, steps on it with his hinds and now you are with a large vet bill a horse with damaged tendons and ligaments or worse falls over and breaks his neck. That chasing after he did not lift his hind correctly is excessive and kinda useless, in fact can slow things and stress the horse (thus slowing learning), let it assimilate and understand what he did and what is what you want without using such lengthy punishments to correct undesired behavior. Better use positive reinforcement, its scientifically proven to be more effective and safer to the point dangerous wild animals are trained like this in zoos to willingly cooperate for vet checks etc.

that horse was not spooking. he had reached a good point with that horse where he knew it wouldn't be jumping around. by not tethering the horse, and because of setting it up correctly, the horse felt very calm and unrestrained/unstifled
