Love that you say each horse may need a different type of rider. I ride a lead dominant mare while my mom rides a more submissive horse. I have to ride my horse differently than she does because of the different reactions & response each horse gives.
Oh my gosh! This reaction to the black banner is exactly how my horse did and caused me to hit the ground with a lot of bruises and a sprained elbow. I have been so much harder on my horse with those types of reactions since then and it has helped tremendously! So nice to see this is the correct response! Thank you!
Haha I remember wild kingdom was one program we watched when I was a child. It came on Sunday night before the weekly Disney show/movie. Marlin always did the talking, while Jim did the action. Back when there was one TV in the house and the parents controlled programming lol.
Surprising to see how fast the horse changed but very nice and yes I very probably would have been off when he spooked at the dark sign thank you once again for excellent video 😊
I do appreciate being able to have space to deal with reactive behavior when you’ve got space to safely work with the horse. On a tight trail or with trees all around it’s tougher.
Good helpful info Tim! I think confidence in one's leadership is so important , and knowing what to do in these situations. And for a beginner rider, get help from someone like you!
I’m intrigued by how many gaited horses that get sent to you. Is it the location ? Lots of gaited horses in that region ? They seemed more high spirited than I expected
My dressage instructor explained it as that the shoulder-in gave the horse a "'command" (so to speak) to focus on rather than thinking about the spooky place. So it's very much like Tim's expectation that the horse must be focusing on the rider.
Ok. The black banner is what I get when a larger vehicle flys by. Mine does that move & more so I fall off. How do I get at him or catch it before I fall?
One of the reasons you have weird reactions from each side is because the horse brain does not have a corpus callosum which we have that transfers information from one side of the brain to the other. Because of that it is like riding 2 horses. The right side and the left side. That is why we have to train both sides.
this has been debunked by MRI's, horses do absolutely have a corpus callosum. It is smaller and thinner than in a human so horses don't generalize information as much, but the whole "riding two horses" thing is a bit outdated now.

Love the name "Dennis".
Great demonstration!
❤️🐴
I'm reminded of Wild Kingdom...."Jim, will now trap that lion". .lol. Go Robert!
😂

Dennis is just like my horse. He spooks easily and walks sideways when he is afraid. Thank you for this video.

Great job Robert & Tim.😊😊 Thank you for video Tim & Melinda😉

Thanks so much for posting this! The difference was really clear.
Great educational resource thanks for sharing your knowledge much appreciated

This is pure gold! Thanks @Tim ❤

Yes there are a lot of gaited horses around me.
Love that he takes in gaited horses...I ride walkers so those videos with gaited horses really help me.
Well done. I was taught by my dressage instructor to ride a spook at a shoulder in … maybe it just helped me focus, but it sure helped.

What happens if you do fall off with that reaction?

@@casdragon_5939 No, not debunked or outdated, just 'finetuned".
❤❤❤
What's interesting is the horse doesn't shy to the white banner on the right at all.
Like selective shying! Lol. Shows you he's really not scared.
