Best canter depart video ever.Stay well,my friend.
Thank you- glad you like it!
Thank you Dale!
You're welcome Gina!
Hi Dale, What is the name of the knot again? Bolar?
Bowline
I agree completely, well said
Awesome video, thanks
You're welcome Christina. Glad you like it!
I have a question about the backing, do you always back every time you stop? Does the horse start to anticipate that? Like if you want an actual stop, but they start backing instead?
No, it's not necessary to back every time you stop and yes they can start anticipating. It's easy enough to fix though- just push them ahead if they start to back up on their own and stop backing them after every stop for a while.
@dalefredricks6546 thank you 😊
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you
You're welcome RC!
Thanks for this video. I will have a new yearling in a few months and when it's time to lunge him I will use your technique. I love the steady what you go through all the motions. In my mind this is a perfect way to start lunging a youngster.
You're welcome. Glad you like the video! Good luck with your yearling.
Its a get down rope. Its so you can lead your horse without pulling on their mouth with a bit or a snaffle in the mouth.. keeps their mouth soft
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you…so much clarity!
You're welcome Stephen!
hey Dale Great video....do you need to use a caveson (spelling?) or a Bosalito (againing spelling?) or can I tie with my headstall and Romal reins??
@@dalefredricks6546 I stated that wrong I meant do I need a caveson or bosalito to run a getdown rope OR can I just tie it under and in conjunction with my headstall
You can just tie the getdown around your horse's neck at the throatlatch.
Who else was trying to read the cowboy belt buckle?
Good video it was very helpful
Thank you Kent, glad you liked it!
now, that's just showing off
yes, best description and video of these 3 aids I've seen (and I've watched a LOT of videos)...thank you!
You're welcome, glad you found it helpful.
I have a team of mules for driving ,dale I'm wondering would this harness work with my for cart. And using just 1 mule
It would sure work on your mules. I'm not sure what kind of cart you have. If driving one mule you'd have to have shafts on your cart and not a tongue like you would driving two.
This was so awesome thanks for posting
You're welcome Abby!
Thank you for posting this lesson (& the other on relaxing the jaw).
You're welcome!
Best slow and easy very well explained!!! Thank you for this!
You're welcome!
Everything was good. Surprised you would use neoprene pad and cinch.
Thanks Mark, I really like the neoprene in a training situation. It is easily cleaned and and seems to hold my saddles in place better than other materials. If I was riding the same horse for long periods of time, I would probably switch to natural materials such as wool saddle pads and mohair cinches.
I've never seen anyone do a two rein with a snaffle and hackamore. Interesting!
It works for me Mark, hope you'll give it a try!
This is so helpful thank you ❤❤❤
You're welcome!
:) ☺️
Awesome diagram and explanations! Thank you!
Sure would have liked to see you driving him! Always found your videos very informative and helpful, and you always have really nice horses 😊
We'll probably show me driving him somewhere down the road Julie. Glad you like our videos and thanks for noticing the horses!
Very, very nice!!! All look very high quality, very professional made. Harness and cart suit the horse very well. I even took for myself some advice from this video in which order you harness your horse, so I will change my order accordingly!!! Thank you and have a nice time with your horse and family!! :)
Thanks Alex, glad you like the harness and cart! We're glad that even a pro like you could find some helpful advice in the video. Hope you and your family are doing well in Poland. Stay safe and keep in touch.
Your the best
Well anyway, so nice of you to say so. Thank you Sierra
Very happy to see you.Your style makes me more aware of the way I greet my horse when I see her and subsequently when we ride.
Thank you, and thanks for taking the time to write!
I find it interesting that people from the USA refer to this (longreining) as a novel approach to breaking in/starting a horse. For much of the world, this is the traditional and widely accepted method of mouthing a horse prior to riding. My grandmother said in the early 20th century where she grew up, horses were broken to harness at around 3 years and driven for a year prior to riding, thus allowing the muscular skeletal frame time to develop the strength to carry a person. Glad to hear the operation is behind you and you have been able to keep busy in recovery. It is good to think through a problem and find a working solution to it when dealing with horses.
I like the idea of driving a horse the first year and then riding the 2nd year. Thanks for your thoughts!
Really great to see a new video from you too. Hope you are on the way to recovery and feeling 100% again soon. ❤🇩🇰
Nice to see you and your horse, Dale!!! Very good exercises!!! It is interesting to see the reaction of your young horse. He is quite fresh, and his mind becomes tired fast, but finally he brings his attention to you and your commands. Awaiting for new videos!!! Thanks for reminding about me. Aleksandr :)
Yes, we had just gotten the Kid out of his stall and he was feeling fresh. In fact, he was being kind of naughty! We decided to post the video anyway, because that's the way horse training is- everything doesn't always go exactly as planned.
Good to see you back sir!
Thank you sir, it's good to be back! Thanks for watching!
Long time since I saw a video from you , I hope your health is going better, greetings, God bless you
Yes, it's been a while. I'm feeling better all the time. Thanks for watching and for reaching out to us! God bless you too.
The first part of the knot that your tying is called the crown. The second part of the knot is called a wall knot. When you complete the not it is called a stopper knot and that's the official name from The Ashley's book of knots
Thanks for the information Russell!
I just got a pair of antique spurs should I clean them or leave them be?
I would talk to somebody who deals in antique bits and spurs Rob. I think sometimes they like them left untouched. I've also been told that regular toothpaste and toothbrush will clean up silver.
I like your calm manner
Thank you so much for your great videos! I've just started my Colonels Shining Gun colt here in Australia 🇦🇺 and this method is brilliant!! I'm looking forward to riding him in these.
You're welcome Robyn. Good luck with your colt. Would like to hear how you progress using this method.
Just a question please Dale, we had our 8th ride today and I've been riding him in a bosal from the first ride so at what point would you suggest putting the snaffle in as well please?
@@robynross2141 You can start anytime now Robyn. I would like to suggest you watch our video 'Part 8- Starting the 2 Year Old; Snaffle Bit and Hackamore'. You might find some things in it that you would like to try.
@@robynross2141 Oops, I must be getting senile lol. Didn't remember that I had recommended that video to you; sorry!
Hi Dale, Just wanted to update you on how it's going with my colt and using the snaffle/hackamore. He had 6 months off during our winter/show season as the weather was horrendous and I don't have a covered arena. Ride 61 and I started using this method on your video and it's been fantastic. My colt has not once chomped on the snaffle and is going great. Wish I could send a photo of him, but thank you so much for your great video collection! I love them! ❤
Or a bowline would be even better and easier to tie no matter how small your halter loop
great videos , subscribed ,,,thank you God bless
Thank you Shawn, glad you like them! Thanks for subscribing and God bless you too.
Hey so what if I can’t even approach my horse with a halter. I have a rescue whose about nine years old and she HATES halters. Do you have any tips for that?
I would suggest you find a professional trainer in your area to help you.
You sure find some handsome horses
I can't seem to find the videos that you were talking about that leads up to this. Are they still listed?
Hi Miranda, we have 60+ videos. You can find them all on our TH-cam channel @ Dale Fredricks
I would die for a horse that light, oml. I've been working with my new 15 year old mare. She has made good progress since I got her in July. Not sure she will ever get as light as Shorty though, considering she's an older horse with old habits. But I wouldn't trade her for any other horse. She has been a great teacher for me. She's got the calmness and experience due to her age, yet she's very healthy, athletic, and a fast learner. I'll be ready for when I get next horse, hopefully an impressionable 2 yr old that I can teach to be soft and responsive from the get go
Glad to hear you're enjoying your mare. There are many advantages to riding an older horse, especially for someone just starting out. It seems like most beginners want to get a young horse that they can "learn together" with. Exactly the wrong thing to do for a novice or anybody with some time or health restrictions. The world would be a better, safer place if people would start out with older, been there, done that kind of horses!
Thank you for your videos and wishing you a speedy recovery who do you know thats somewhat hopefully local that makes hand made horse hair bosal's ? and or macate ropes
Thank you Jason. Bill Black makes some horsehair bosals and Douglas Krause makes real nice mecates. You can find them both on Facebook.
@@jbroswel You're welcome Jason. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving as well.
Thank you! After watching hordes of confusing video's, it finally makes sense
You're welcome. Glad you found it helpful!

I use a drop of Clear Gorille Glue on a toothpick to lock the threads on the chicago screws.
Whatever works Pete! Do you have any trouble unscrewing them?
Hope the hip op goes well for you. I am thrilled you will be showing harness work when you are back on your feet. I have a 5 year old I am pulled a few logs with and want to put him to shafts once I have him pulling more logs and perhaps a sled. I will be keen to see how you go about it. All the best.
Thank you for the well wishes. It will be interesting for me as I've never trained a horse to pull a cart before.
