My name is Esme and this is me so I guess my channel is 'This Esme'.
I make videos about all things horsey such as Vlogs with the ponies, horse care videos and edits of me riding to help other equestrians learn more about these beautiful animals as you never stop learning with horses. :)
Animals
--------------
Casper 15hh grey Connemara
Mickey 13hh cream pony
Willow - White paint donkey
Bruno - Brown donkey
Toby - Black donkey
(Sometimes our guineapigs are featured too)
I am very fortunate to have all these animals in my life and I hope you enjoy my videos :) x

*Im slowly wiping your tears of happiness and a great horse bond* 😅
Edit: OMG you like it!
i cry so good
I'm still crying now😟😢😤😦
What please heart mine Esme 😁😁😁
Anyone get tingles and feel like they gonna cry when she said "every bolt, I would ride through it and every buck, I would sit" or when she said "keeping Casper was the best decision I ever made?
Just me, okay, btw I've watched this, like 30 times
You are such a good rider, Esme and I look up to you so much and want to be like you one day, I've been riding for four or five years now and I haven't even galloped yet!
Anyone else want a horse sooooo badly but their parents wont let them?❤❤❤❤❤🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎❤❤❤❤❤
Edit: I wrote this comment over 2 and a half years ago, and I still do not have a horse but I am no longer angry/sad about that. Yes, sometimes it's hard to see so many people with gorgeous horses and ponies, but at the end of the day I'm just extremely grateful to even be able to ride twice a week. In those 2 years, I have now galloped, ridden/jumped without reins, faced my fears and rode a huge mare (I now love her to pieces), and done so many other amazing things in my riding journey. I know this is just one comment out of many, but I really appreciate all the kinds words of love and support from everyone. 1.4k likes is an insane amount, and thanks to all the 180+ poeple who stopped by to reply and share their story! ❤
Edit 2: I first wrote this comment when I was a 9 year old, horse obsessed little girl. Yes, it is cringey, but it also makes me smile because of how far I've come since then. I am now 14 and am going to start loaning my first pony next week, and am being given opportunities I have only dreamed of since I was 7.
If you take the leaps and try your best, dreams really do come true.
Same...
Yep same😭😭
Same
Hannah Pawsome tbh I cried but then fake sneezed so my parents wouldn’t think I’m crying 😂😂
Hannah Pawsome OMG YES YES YES can relate to everything
Omg I'm crying on how casper has gained through the years he isn't the same horse as he was when you first got him he's like a different horse with so much spirit he's not even my horse and I'm so proud of him and mickeys just the same old mickey living and has no idea what's happening 😂❤️
True anime nightcore
Same I had to watch this by the sink so I could wash my face
I’ve just realised that her favourite pony was that grey called joey and now she has a dapple grey called joey 🥺❤️
Yeah
Yes
Yeah I forgotXD
Awww your profile pic is adorable!
@@awesomestrawberry3198 I subbed and also I'm going to make a yt vid one day
Anybody else hear when she said “this grey here was called Joey and he was definitely one of my favorites” after she has her new horse, Joey!
Lilly Harris yea.
Mhmm
Time stamp?
Aesthetic Army 00:43 when she starts talking about him x
Lilly Harris
Yessesss I literally checked this to double check! 😂
I’ve watched this video like 500 times but it never gets old
Love you Esme!
Fred Wu Sammmmmmmmmme!!!!!!!
Boooooo
Honestly same
Fred Wu ikr! I have watched this sooooooooo many times
Sameeeeee
My heart melted when you talked about how he bucked and bolted it's so inspirational! ❤❤
It gave me shiveres
So true I also shivered
I was so close to crying 😂 I don’t know why because I’m not normally emotional about tv and videos
The Joey spirit has carried on 😂
Lol
😂😂😂
Yup lol
Omg, I was just thinking about it!!! :O
Jjkfi ui v kkk ndh
I'm glad you didn't sell Casper. Because you and him have learnt so much and he has taught you and you have taught him a lot of things,
and if you got another horse you probably won't even be half the ride you are Well done Esme
You have achieved so much on Mickey but even though you have outgrown him he still loves you and you still love him.
Horseriding forever Dotti I agree!
You are my riding inspiration. I was thinking of quitting horseback riding but when I saw your videos I was like “damn I want to be as good as her” and I everyday look up for you and your tips
Gus Gus ❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️
Same here
Don't worry, not every rider is perfect, trust me, I was thinking the same thing back then but I never gave up. keep going and you'll never regret it❤️❤️
My horse bucks and kicks but I still love him
Esme That was such a beautiful speech, I'm literally crying me head off
I can’t stop watching her story because it is amazing how good and confident she is. The most amazing thing is she would not give up on her horses.
doctor: you have 12 minutes to live
me: watches this video
i love STRANGER THINGS too
I would definitely do the same
What about the other 2 seconds
wow what a fun life that would be haha
i love STRANGER THINGS wow, you find this video in 2 seconds?
omg i may have cried on the caspar part, aww
This no joke, made me cry. I have wanted a horse for so long now, and, I have no words. "Every bolt, I would ride though it, and every buck, I would sit." This has been such an emotion journey, and I am glad I got to share it with you.
I named my horse Esme coz she gave me inspiration and dedication to ride. ESME YOU ARE MY HERO 🦸♀️🐴(thanks to you I won 12 trophies in the show jumping in Australia)
Joanna John are you serious?
@@user-en7rr2jt1n why wouldn't they be
• Տɑƙմɾɑ • I would assume they would be
Awwwwwwww
I’m jealous that you were able to start so young , and lived on a ranch
Jasmine Truit I’m really jealous 😭 I just hope one day, I’ll have Horse lessons :)
I have been riding as soon as I learnt to sit up
@@tylerdenny6082 good for you
I started riding five years ago when I was about eight. I was lucky not to start too late, I’m hoping to rent a pony in a year or two! 😆🐎
I have been riding for 6 years :)
I've watched this over and over again! I wish I could like this one thousand times!
it is so funny as now Esme has a horse named Joey. The first grey pony she showed was named Joey.
Yea I know.
It is not funny don,t make fun of what she named her horse
@@annablaircameron2547 🤦🏻♀️🤣 they aren't. They are thinking its ironic that she now has a pony named Joey when the first pony she showed was also called joey
👍🏼🥰
she isn't she is just telling how there were to horse named joey she's not making fun of the name
Idk why I cried when she said “every buck i sat” those words that has rlly inspired me and I cried 🥺🥺
Yes, the tingles indeed! If only every horse owner was as patient and knowledgable as this young lady. Lord knows how many good, worthy horses have been tossed out and labeled, given up on and ended up at auction or worse. Esme, you're the best. Bless you for not giving up.
OMG esme I was ligit crying 😢 watching that you journey is amazing to she be so proud of both of your boys xxxxxx
Charlotte Payne I teared up a few times but I had to hold myself back because I am in a public place
Sameeee 😅😢😢💕
Why did this make my cry when it came to giving Casper away
She’s talking about a grey called joey and now she has a grey called joey ahaha cute xx
Joey is darker and has different spot patterns though also WAY WAY taller!😂😂😂
@@bellasmarket7251 well nooooo. I know that u didn’t need to tell me
@@riannarea6150 I was just saying you don’t need to be rude about it I-
@@bellasmarket7251 o I’m sorry I wasn’t trying to be mean. X
@@riannarea6150 it’s fine but all my friends are saying x at the end of everything now, I hat does it mean? 😂
I love this story so much and I absolutely love how you never gave up on Casper. That takes a lot of guts. You have inspired me so much and I want you to know that! ❤️ I love your channel so much and you have accomplished so much!! Keep persevering !!❤️
You are so lucky!!! I have barely have a backyard. My mum said that I can (finally!) start horse riding lessons. I’m ten, & I watch awesome people like you starting horse riding lessons so young! I’m saving up from chores and lemonade stands so I can start leasing/loaning a horse, but I doubt that until I get my own house, I can’t own a horse.😭🙂😅😭😭😭🐴🐴🦄
If you like horsey vids please check out everything equestrian!
Lucky you got to have riding lessons.
I don’t have a horse or lessons yet I will have lessons though!
I got a horse when I was 11, never give up! I still have her today, and we have such an amazing bond! :D
The bond Esme has with all her horses makes me smile 😊
Old intro brings back so many memories when I started riding and watching her 🥰
Wish I could like this a billion times!! You are such an inspiration!!
Anyone watching in 2019?
Or is that just me? 🤔
Meeeeeeeee
Sylvie Strawberryriver I am 2
yuppp
Me
I was
At 0:52 she says one of her favourite pony’s was called joey
And now esme has her own joey 😂❤️
lol
I can literally watch this thousand times
I watched this hours ago but forgot to comment.Your channel has made me more confident around my horses.Thank you for making videos and making me more confident.
Omg my eyes have lost all their tears! Xxxxxx
No more tears left to cry LOL not about the horse
wow, this made me tear up, you've come so far Esme, and I'm very proud of your progress throughout your journey! I'm very happy that you didn't give up on Casper but instead helped him through his tough days, I'm a teen moving into adulthood as the years go by and honestly couldn't be prouder of you, Mickey, Casper and joey + Duke, I wish you the best through your horsey journey!
She rode a grey called Joey and now she has a grey called Joey ! ❤️❤️
Omg 😱 yassssss
He’s actually a dapple grey but yeah!!
@@klarastrawberrylake5009 yea I think she meant a type of grey
I think she meant like a white as grey is another word for white for horse
You mickey and Casper were meant to be ! ❤️
This is probably my favourite video on your channel
This is such an inspirational video
Love you Esme Xoxo
Thank you so much for the ❤️
This is a great vid Casper has made so much progress through out the years
I am 28 years old and recently got back into riding as I finally have the life stability to do so. Your videos warm my heart beyond words. You are so kind and welcoming and I understand exactly how you feel about your horses, and it shines through so much in your videos. I can tell that they absolutely love you to pieces. I know a lot of your viewers are younger but I wanted to know that you inspire me as well. I wish you and your sweet wonderful equines all the best.
It’s 2018 and you sure have improved so much. This video is so emotional and inspirational for me, it’s incredible. Seriously, thank you for everything you do here and when you ride, it’s impeccable.
262 dislikes are people that wish they had such a strong ,powerfull bond with their horse🐎🐎🐎🖤🖤
or people who dont like the video
I don't have a horse.....or pony......:(
Edit: now there's 447 :(
But so many dislikes
Is sad
Barbora Vajnerova haha jokes on you i don’t have a horse. Or a pony. But i looooooooove horses
Who else started crying when she said "I didn't want him to think I'd given up on him" 😭😭😭🥺❤️❤️
My fav bit is … “ every bolt I would ride through every buck I would sit !” LOVED IT !!
It's great to see how much Casper has improved from when you first got him. He looks like such a fab horse. Well done for not giving up on him ☺️
This has just made me more confident in riding my horse she’s the same as Casper bucks spooks and bolts but I keep trying and she’s getting better x
Amazing!How is she?
Keep going! Great job, and never give up 👍
Well done good job
Same!! I worked with her on it and didn't give up, and she is getting a lot better!
I watch this over and over never getting older still crying love you esme casper mickey and joey
You and Casper are the perfect pair never give up on anything
OMG such a cute video!! I love the idea (: Thank you for sharing your story, Esme!
Allie Bost another horse TH-cam's one of my favorites too
Thank you Allie x
Allie Bost why are you not posting laity I miss your vids so much 😍😍😍😍
Allie Bost ii
im sooo proud of you!
Who isn’t ♥️♥️♥️
I love how you never gave up on Casper. I am only 9 and I have always wanted a horse. 🐎❤️
I really was going to give up my pony. He was very green and bucked me off every day. He even rested up on my and fell over and landed on my arm and broke it. But when u made that decision made me wanna keep persisting thank you !
How is he doing?
👍🏼not to the first bit 😂
I hope he is allot better and you don’t get bucked or spooked as much ._.
Ok this is the 15 time I have watched this and I cried every time 🤪🤪😂
I loooooooooooooove it to ❤️💕💕❤️
I never new they Casper would buck and throw you off you could not even tell.
You should really make another one of these starting from the beginning Esme! Then you could add Joey and everything about Casper and stuff!
I loved your riding story. I'm glad you kept your horses and never gave up. Your determination will get you far in life! 😁
who else had small tears when she spoke about never selling casper?
man i REALLY want a horse
Me too but i'm loaning one right now.
@@horseparadise2003 perfect start, I bought my loan horse and I could never part with her
@@isalsaurusthelemon6512 really wow well I don't think I can part with my pony.🐴💖
I want a horse to Heidi Tucker
I’m sure it will happen for you :) it’s a wonderful experience
beautiful ❤ made me cry , but a good cry :')❤
It’s amazing how she kept on going and kept Casper she is truly fearless
It’s so weird to see Mickey being rode! You two look so happy!
The pony that gives you the most confidence, is very often the one that took the most to begin with.
L
aww! At least you tried to get a pony! Even though you have two. Keep up the work Esme! Love you! From Liverpool, North West. Xx
Also I love your videos esme!

❤️Can we just Take a second to think how far Esme and Casper have came❤️
Honesty, I cried a lot during this video, you have come so far and I’m so glad you made this video to showcase it. You have worked incredibly hard to be where you are today and it has definitely payed off, as you now have 448k subs and you get to have wonderful opportunities. I have only been riding for 3 years, but when I do progress and get better, I want to be exactly like you
oh my goodness I never would have thought Casper would have bucked or bolted! you have done so well with him and have come so far! can't wait to see you in the future x
Isabella Plum same
At 5:00 you can tell that they were going to be best friends because there’s a rainbow
This is such an amazing story Esme! You have really inspired me to ride and I have not jumped yet but I will soon but I do know how to canter I am working on a perfect canter over poles keep up the good work love your vids!
edit one: This is my update and I have jumped cantered and fallen off many times! but I guess it all apart of the experience but I just can not believe how much I have improved due to watched and learning from Esme! Esme, I just want to say I can not wait until your next in video and just how much your channel has grown! you might even reach 1M soon beacuse you are so close i love Duke, Micky Casper and of course joey. Sorry for just commenting this even though you posted this 5 years ago I will definitely do another edit!
It made me so happy that Casper is so good and that you never gave up on him because now he’s such a good horse
Oh my goodness, I’m crying 😭 this is beautiful, you’ve done so well with Casper 💖
I'm speechless, I just love how much effort was put into this! You are one of the most inspiring riders ever, I'm now really excited about jumping 40cm (its not very high I know but I only started riding a year ago at an old riding school) I have finally got a horse to ride. She may not be much but she acts the same a mickey, that's why I love mickey so much! Please keep making videos like you do! I love you so much Esme!
Hi esme I just want to say you have really inspired me to ride it was so hard when I first started I gave up but as soon as I saw your video it inspired me to ride again because of you I would not be who I am today I got my first horse about 2 weeks again keep doing what ur doing u are really inspiring loads xx
I actually cried your story is so beautiful and people should learn from you you always persevere and just never gave up and for some people thats hard to do but you did it and its just so heart warming xxx
5:01 Wow! A rainbow!! 🌈
Oh yeah
This was amazing you’ve done so well with Caspar
This video gave me chills ❤️ especially the part where she talked about Casper bolting and bucking! I have watched this loads and it is always amazing! One of my favourite videos on your channel 🌈
Esme’s riding has come along so much!! Great vid, I loved to see your riding story!

This is definitely the best video of yours Esme.(I even watched it twice 😂)It is adorable. Your speech about persevering with Casper was so emotional it nearly had me in tears as I can relate to some of it with my pony and you’ve made me realise (as you said) there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Toby, Bruno, Willow, Mickey and Casper are all amazing. And you should be so proud of yourself and where you are today! Also those photos of you and Mickey are so cute. Your channel has grown so much and it is growing even more with every single video you make getting better and better. Keep up the awesome work and look forward for what the future may bring. Xxx ❤️
Thank you ever so much xx
I watched it 3 times HA! Jk
I watched it like ten 😂
Love u Esme!
Love the ponies aswell
I’ve watched this countless times and come back whenever I’m feeling sad, to see such an amazing story 💛 you have such an amazing story and bond with your horses and it’s truly amazing to see 🌼✨
You r amazing Esme. Thank you for posting every Friday
Omg I loveee you #earlysquad I cant put into words how much I love you and your videos
Sophia Shawky same
I just found this video on how to persuade your parents to get you a horse, her tactic was to make a film on it .the girl who made the video used it on her parents and got a horse! I made one on my own and I’m yet to show it to my mom. The videos called how to persuade your parents to get you a horse. The second video is it. It has a white horse on the front. I hope this helped you like I hope it will help me. Good luck!

I love you and you equines and keep up the good work esme because you are such an inspiration . I’ve had ups and downs in 2017 but your videos are what kept me through . I’ve learnt so much from you and my horse Paddy is progressing so well . Thank you for giving up your time to do videos and I hope you understand that you are an amazing equestrian and youtuber and I hope that 2018 and so on is a great year . ThanksAimee. Xxxxxxxx🐴😘❤️
this esme's beautiful story of her horses:)
i love it
you wouldn't have been able to be the greatest equestrian without casper and mickey
you guys are the best family
This made me cry because the love you have for Casper is amazing! You have come so far with Casper!! You are amazing 🤩 Hope you and all the equines have a lovely year!!💕
Such an amazing video! I love how you put in clips of when Casper or Mickey bucked you off or got spooked & scared when they first turned up to their new homes (via your home). Because, seeing the progress increase throughout the video of all the years you've had them is incredible! Both of them has the best owner they could ever ask for! 💖💖💖
Hi Esme! I, like many others, have recently discovered your channel and binge watched everything!! I think you bring a lot of sunshine with your vids. Your compassionate, gentle, hardworking and diligent nature is uplifting and inspiring. You look after your horses with such detailed care and love. It's funny because I have a grey Arabian and a cremello miniature, so when I see your two at the gate, they remind me of a slightly different version of my two babies haha. I love that you are vegetarian and cruelty free, I am also. You are just a beautiful person with beautiful ponies. Well done, keep on being who you are and taking such exemplary care of your horses.
PinkFloyd457 Thank you so much xx
Omg this video is the cutest thing ever!!!! I love you and your horses sm I love to watch your videos when I’m sad or bored and they make me happy!!! And your such a great rider!!!
You nearly made me cry this is such a happy story how much you have grown
That’s so heartwarming😭😭😭
I started crying when I was watching this because I never thought horses were for me until I actually first saw your channel and now I'm actually in a Pony girl and I don't have a horse but I dream of it literally I dream of having a horse but everybody in my family just says it's a phase but I don't think so horses on my life♡
9:08 omg that is such a good jump i keep replaying it XD
You are lucky, because we don’t have enough room at our house plus our neighbourhood dose not allow farm animals. And how I ride is I lease and I DREAM of a horse for my own. (If I miss spelled something..............I suck at spelling XD)
I'll help with speling: does.
Ambe Plays - Roblox and More I’ll help with spelling: spelling
Good for you...
Atleast you lease...
I'm not even allowed to share 😭 you are very lucky to even lease 😊
I love this. I like when you said I had to hang on for dear life. And it made a little sad when you said your parents said you might want to sell Casper. Glad you didn’t
This made me cry so much. I just love it. I love the story and journey you guys are on together. I hope sometime I will be able experiences owning my own horse. I love horses and riding so so much
This video reminds me so much why I love this channel ❤ wake is such a kind caring person the dedication she puts into her horses is heartwarming :)
litterally made me cry! you've came so far! this is so sweet and i hope one day i will be as good as you! xx
