THANK YOU for showing some REAL LIFE moments!!! TOO MANY trainers do videos with their colts behaving perfectly, and us viewers don't learn how to correct and discipline, because our colts aren't perfectly behaved. I very much appreciate the REAL demo and instruction! KEEP BRINGING IT!
Something really funny is that I watched this video like 6 months ago to help me with a weanling that looked and behaved just like the one in this video (LIKE THEY'RE NEARLY IDENTICAL) and now she's a well-behaved member of society most of the time.
"I am canceling my subscription" made me chuckle. Thank for this video. They def do tend to get a little grumpy when you start telling them what to do its entertaining 😂
This video is so helpful!!!! Ours tend to want to be so friendly and in your face, I like they want to be friendly but they need to know when it’s time to work. I’ve come to learn just how dangerous that can be when they get big.
I actually don’t understand this…in the beginning your petting him as he comes into your space, should we just not allow that from the beginning because it seems to send mixed messages.
Great video - I really appreciate that after you have to make a ‘stern’ correction you immediately rub and scratch on him to let him know you can still be friends- your intentions are only to stop him from hurting you in the moment (and vicariously, in the future). Great job - looking forward to more of your videos!
"Imagine if he were bigger" this is what I'm saying with my 5 week old filly who has been handled since day one is growing like so fast and changing week to week so fast! She is learning boundaries and your video here gives me the confidence to be firm when I need to be as she is super comfortable with me and is displaying some definite other side lol!
Thank you! That's really helpful. Our two yearling fillies are both a bit mouthy and like to grab the rope or sometimes nip my coat. One is really improving with your groundwork exercises but the other is still very in my face so I will be a bit less cautious about 'nailing her'
Yes this helped very much. I tend to ask too much right away. I think I will back off a little, but she is not trying to bite anymore. Appreciate that I found the video. I subscribed and liked!!
hitting a horse is animal abuse, not only that but it will also teach a horse to become headshy when you slap them in the face. Someone was eliminated from the olympics last year for doing this exact thing
Incorrect, and could lead to a very dangerous horse. First, that Olympic trainer literally PUNCHED a horse in the face for not wanting to jump. Completely different than slapping the mouth for biting. Second, humans need to understand how horses discipline each other in nature, and mimicking that is the most HUMANE thing we can do. Administer the proper amount of discipline to the appropriate body part, and they associate the discipline to their action. I always avoid eyes and ears, as well as the cartilage of the nose. No injuries, no developing head shy behavior. If you have a method for training horses, especially young ones who are developing dangerous behavior, that doesn't involve physical discipline for physically dangerous behavior, please share.
Yup. Exactly what you should do if you want a headshy horse. Do this especially if you don't want the horse to trust your hands or your reactions, and magically turn a gently-handled colt into a horse that wants nothing to do with you. Definitely "nail him" in the face in his very first session and escalate it to "10" immediately so there is fear because, of course, fear is a form of learning especially if you want to make sure the horse shuts down, cocks his foot and checks out, and doesn't ever try to think for himself. Also, after you've been totally unfair and overreacted, be sure to scratch his face so you can be "friends again," just to make sure he is totally confused. As the saying goes, "make the wrong thing scary." Some people would make him move his feet, "make the wrong thing hard," and let him decide for himself if biting is a bad idea without anger or punishment. But, not you - you're confident it was the horse's fault and if baby's first groundwork session is a trainwreck, that's not your fault!
@@questioneverything9535 I'm pretty sure this person has a totally different idea of how to train a colt than you or I do... so, what she "needs to do" is irrelevant, what she's gonna do is just ruin him. Case closed.
I am in the same boat with a colt the same age. My issue is he won’t focus on me. He tried to eat 24/7 and won’t stop trying to graze no matter where I am at. Even after eating. I’m not sure what I can do to get his attention. It’s frustrating trying to teach when he head is constantly on the ground. I have been saying no and pulling head up, buts it’s a non stop correction. What should I do?
Agree. You don't need to bash them in the face to correct them. Turned me off this instruction straight away when she did that and I am 3rd generation decendant of horse trainers. It's unnecessary and you could see straight away she broke the horses trust. It was responding out of fear rather than trust.
It really depends on the temperament of each colt. I’m not sure if you’ve seen any of the yearling red roan’s videos, but he does the best with sessions less than 10 minutes. Queso, the colt I’m working on in this video, can go quite a bit longer, like 25 minutes simply because he loves attention-any attention.
@@BeckyAmio my 8 month old reminds me a lot of Queso. Born friendly despite mama being a range mare and not very friendly, loves affection, curious and confident, into everything, and mouthy.
Horses only know what we teach them, they arnt born knowing what is expected of them. That horse wasnt reachijg to bite, it was an investgatie behaviour. First dont rub their heads use the wither area, waving your arms in front of the fce is a gamtothemt. This horse wasnt getting clear direction from the person. The horse was never trying to.get out of.somethi.g

Dicipline or abuse?
I really value your videos. Unlike many, you show us training right from the beginning and that is so helpful. Thank you.

Great job! I'd love to see more videos weanling videos like this, you give me confidence working with my 8 month old colt!

Excellent instruction. Thanks.
What about a yearling that rears, strikes, and turns the bum to you and kicks when asked to move the feet?
Yes this helped very much. I tend to ask too much right away. I think I will back off a little, but she is not trying to bite anymore. Appreciate that I found the video. I subscribed and liked!!
Thank you so much😘 I plan on posting some follow up videos of Queso, so stay tuned😁

@@abbondanze She needs to move his feet and back him out of her personal space. When he goes to bite, back him up.
@@questioneverything9535 I'm pretty sure this person has a totally different idea of how to train a colt than you or I do... so, what she "needs to do" is irrelevant, what she's gonna do is just ruin him. Case closed.
Exactly. Glad some people can see how out of line that was. There are better less cruel ways to set that behaviour straight.
Just bought a 2yr almost 17h Percheron that was never taught any of this and now I’m having to fix it. With a VERY large toddler
Thank you!!! This helps me a lot!
I have a foal that's does exactly the same. Thanks for this vidéo that's gonna help 🌟
Ive have a six month old colt to and he does the same thing
My filly just shuts down and won’t move off the shoulder no matter what I try. She just pushes into my further. Advice?
Can you do a flag on a stick?
@@BeckyAmio she doesn’t move.. 😅
@@BarneyJo250 get bigger. You aren’t getting big enough.
Thank you! Do you introduce vocal cues and vocal praise as well at this stage?
And ive just watches you're video and it shows me how to handle him when he bites
Have you any tips for a weanling (10 month ) that has started trying to kick in his stall then when told off he goes for you ?
My colt is pushy and like to kick what can I do

You have to keep the sessions short and keep him busy doing something.
As soon as a "trainer" hits the horse it's over. DO. NOT. HIT. YOUR. HORSE! Or any animal for that matter. It's not training, it's just pure abuse.
Totally agree. Absolutely no reason - the horse does not understand what is being asked of him. It's just torture to watch.

At this age, how long should training sessions be?
