Supernatural Platinum
The video you are about to watch was filmed by william_jonathan_thatcher on January 18, 2024. The person in the video is my fiance Stephanie's Equine Training.
This video was taken after I (William) had gone in just to try and pet C**t and the situation went sour with him scared tho all I was doing was approach and retreat making sure I moved my feet before he did.
I immediately went to Stephanie about the situation I had with C**t and she came home to help me. I was honestly at a point that I was just done with C**t. Stephanie didn't want to see that happen so she stepped in to help me.
💥We made the mistake of moving C**t to a larger area a 30' X 30' pen with another foal thinking he could easily be caught. That's where the photos of me running with C**t came up. I had gone into the larger pen to catch him. Mind you I did not have a halter in my hands. I simply wanted to pet on him and spend some time with him. C**t had other ideas. He'd run around the entire 30' X 30' pen. Even if I'd ask him to stop and face he'd just run around the pen. That is when I decided in order for me to remotely get him to stop and face so I could approach him I had to keep him to one side of the pen and ask for him to stop and face! Again that's where the photos of me running with C**t were taken. I wasn't running him around the pen nor was I running him back and forth. I was simply following him and trying to keep up with him to keep him at one side of the pen. Yes, every time I'd get him at one end I'd take the pressure off and ask him to stop and face. It took a while for him to even stop and face. In the end I was able to get him to stop midway of the one side of the pen and all I was able to do was touch his chin and I called it a day because he wanted to move his feet soon after I even touched his chin with a finger tip.
After the session of me having such difficulty in the large pen to even get him to allow me to approach him we decided to move
Xena
Here is what we all were waiting for.
Is Xena actually rideable after all?
She allowed a rider on her back without any issues. She understands backing up. She didn't understand any other rein aids. At least not well enough to consider her a broke horse like we were hoping for.
This girl is very green. She needs a refresher course on what riding cues are.
We will be working with her to get her going for long lining so she can learn direction and whoa so it will transfer over to saddle work.
She makes a great lead line Pony. lol

Sir Re*****on
This is my first time bridling Remmy. Stephanie's Equine Training has been the one helping me with the bridling issue because he'd keep his head up so high I couldn't reach his pole. She has a height advantage over me.
I am very grateful that Stephanie has helped me with Remmy's bridling issue cuz now this means I can finally ride him, get to know him, and how he handles so I can take him to Knight School. I'm stoked!
Yes, Remmy still needs bridle work. The training won't stop until he is perfect. Which I know in no time he will be as long as I keep consistent with him.
