Thank you! I would love more videos on in hand work! It's been 12 years since I had a horse and I have access to two now but I've forgotten so much groundwork and it's been very difficult to find good videos on it.
I find your videos to be so easy to understand and helpful. Thank you for clear, concise instructions and demonstrations and not wasting time just yakking! You’ve helped me a lot.
Thank you for explaining what to do if your horse objects to what you’re doing at first! Almost nobody does, and I’m working with an unbroken filly. She objects to everything.
Hi REE😊 Thank you 🐴 The right time to get a horse depends on your experience and Financial situation. If you have never owned a horse before you can try leasing before purchasing. Doing a half or full lease on a horse is a great way to get a feel for what it’s like to own a horse without the Financial responsibility that comes with purchasing😀🐎
You can teach visible cues (ie pointing with your hand) I've done that, combined with other body language you can give rather precise cues, but it's harder (mainly for the human tho 😅) but you can also use any object that look very different like a peacock feather, a duster or a pool noodle. Hopefully your horse don't connect those with the horrible experience he or she has with wips. You could also re-condtion the wip as something positive but that's harder. It could be difficult to know if the horse react because he/she wants to listen to the cue or if he/she is still deep down scared of the consequence of not doing so.
Use hand pressure or a stick with a small flag or feathers, like a duster perhaps. Make sure you can touch, caress him everywhere with duster, before starting to desensitize him to the whip. Bringing treats with the whip nearby. Brushing with the whip nearby and slowly start caressing with the whip until you touch him everywhere. Scratch under his chest with your hand & interchange with the whip for scratching... Or You can use a long whip with a flag and start away from his body. Move it slowly,until you can use it all over, under and above him. Then, move it quicker progressively until you can snap and shake it vigorously without him moving or being alarmed. I watch an Aussie trainer on TH-cam who's pretty good at this: The TRT Training Method. Although I wish he would talk and caress the horses more, so they know when they've done what he wants... Wishing you all the best! Slow and steady is best. If you get frustrated, quit for the day. th-cam.com/video/ZwSS-JuGo_s/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, this is very helpful💗

I’m so glad you enjoyed the video😊 maybe I can do more videos on handwork work in the future or a course on this topic🐴
I like this technique. I've been doing it facing his neck and he takes one step and stops. I think your way may work better!

I hope this was a help! Feel free to leave a comment if you have questions or suggestions for future videos 😊

This is a keeper, thank you
Thank you.
Awesome and thank you.
Awesome techniques. 🤛🏽
Thank you for explaining what to do if your horse objects to what you’re doing at first! Almost nobody does, and I’m working with an unbroken filly. She objects to everything.
Can you explain or show how you are using the reins to get the horse to move laterally and crossing the front feet?
Great video
Thanks, I needed to see this video!
this was great thank you
I have a question, when is it the right time to get a horse? Good video btw 🥰🐴

@@JSHorsemanship Thank you! 🐴
My horse does this so well on the ground. Now I’m riding him i am finding it hard to transition this type of movement when in the saddle
awesome
How do you teach them sidestepping in a halter and lead rope?
I teach it with a halter similar to the way I teach it with bridle. Maybe I will do a video on this in the future 😊
My horse was previously abused with whips so I can't use whips how do I that then?

Can your lesson horse be your heart horse? And can you have multiple?
