Day 17, this is all about taking arena work onto the trail:)
Day 16 and we officially have a job or starting to at least. I want to show you how I use experienced horses to help rehab horses build some confidence. Loved how she is starting to figure out she doesn’t have to have pressure on the rein, she can now hold herself up :)
Day 15! Getting a lot better at riding one handed lol! Seems repetitive I bet but her life has completely changed. She now no longer jumps at the 4 wheeler or unique things that happen on the farm. Watching her change in the herd is what amazes me. As she gets more confidence with what I do her personality changes in the herd. Her movement running around has also changed, she no longer bunny hops around but looks like a normal horse running around:)
Day 14, Sorry for the delay!! Will post a view of why lol, plus I fell asleep with my phone in my hand waiting for the video to process. I rode her and this was something I usually don’t post but it is an important part of the process:).
Day 13, not very exciting but she didn’t have the best day but is progressing 🙂. You need to have off days, this is when they are truly learning!
Day 12, first part is pretty easy but watch the end:)
Hello!! Day 11. Sorry about the holidays, I work horses during the holidays with family here but try not to do computer work, so I am so sorry!! I am voice overing some of the videos to help. Thank you guys for continuing to watch and I really hope this helps watching problems and seeing how we help this horse. She is a sweet heart of a horse and I wish I could show everyone how she is changing in the pasture with other horses. This is why I love training, watching how they change and start enjoying life instead of being scared or worried constantly, even when I am not there! It is all about building confidence in self.
Day 10 redo:). Voice over is done, I know you will be able to see and hear, not sure I said everything that I said when I was live videoing it but I know you will be able to hear it!
Day 9, view from the saddle:). Getting softer in the bridle by moving the feet and body around! I know this may seem slow but it is starting to snowball and things are coming together!
Day 8 and it was chilly! You will see how I deal with a horse who tries to exit the gate or attempts to:). I think everyone has either been on or seen a horse who wants to exit the arena before we want them to.
Oops forgot to post this to finish up with yesterday’s post!
