They can be very dangerous. A woman near me was leading a horse to pasture when it reared up and hit her in the head and she died. Just walking to the pasture.
No, not long at all! Time flies because I sit without taking my eyes off the screen! I remember Ellie! You and Tanya were so cute at the end…like two little jolly elves!
Thank you for adding peace and joy for the horses and in the lives of their people. Very touching. I just love listening to the exchange between everyone 🙂 makes me happy to be able to share in the peace and joy too🌾
I love that horse Christmas Tree T-Shirt! Beautiful! And how much patience went into that trailer session again! Fantastic job! And so good to see Willow doing so well too!
Oh my gosh! What a great video and Ellie’s laugh, showing her joy at the end, was beautiful music to my ears. How happy you’ve made her. Brilliant and so enjoyable!
It is great to see Willow doing so much better! I learn so much from every video. Is Tanya up for using a more professional camera and mike, someone suggested a go pro (which could ease Tanya’s job of videoing tremendously) and a fluffy wind blocking thing on the mikes, one also clipped to Steve. In some videos, maybe more recent than this, Tanya keep her camera on portrait orientation, and that helped keep you a d the horse in view much more easily. There is so much precious learning you two put together in these videos that it would be awesome to see the landscape be default and the mikes blocking out the wind so we don’t miss anything. We appreciate your work so much! I am sure many of us viewers would be up for pitching in a little money towards the purchase of a go pro and good filtering mike or two. Let us know what your thoughts are please about this.
What a scream, that dressed up Roxy, the Chihauhau. She seems to be enjoying it. I'm learning not only a lot about Horses but also Wales. One day I hope to visit once again, but it's always wet there. Such an achievement. Thoroughly absorbing. I trust Ellie is coming along with her Cob? And Healthwise, everthing A-okay.
Hello from Kentucky. Thank you for your empathy to our severe weather. It has made our community stronger. I am unable to find the sweet feed treats. Can you please share where I can find these small containers. Bless you for your skill and patience with the horses. Enjoy your videos immensely!
Your efforts and breakthroughs are terrific. Love your friendly personalities and clear communication. Thank you for all your kindness in everything you do and in sharing your knowledge for us.
Speaking of weather, I am in Littleton, CO and I watched Louisville burn. Winds reached 109 mph. The wind spread the fire and it lit the rooves of houses like candles on a cake. About 1000 houses burned to the ground because it is so dry here. We don't get any type of precipitation for 6 months at a time.
It might be good to build the houses with Adobe or rammed Earth, Straw bale with a good layer of a mud clay plaster, or Hemp crete… These materials are built thick and don’t easily burn.
Currently doing a masters in animal behaviour and this is everything. Watched the Buck movie last night and it was so magical. My focus is in canine psychology but I have a deep love of horses having ridden for 15 years. Ive found though that there are so many crossovers here between canine and horse despite the predator/prey differences. Its definitely something I'm goingbto look further into and perhaps trial run a couple of methods. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong but how fun to study. Thanks Steve and Tanya for giving me something new to explore.
I love your videos and all interactions but most of all you educate right from the beginning of the problem Most people giving advice on handling horses are all trained in advance So you and Tanya top the list
Well that was just beautiful to watch! Both for Joe and for Ellie. Love your videos! Thank you for the way you teach and help horse and owner and all who tune into your videos. 😊👍🐴
You handled that negativity with such grace, the same sensitivity that you use with the horses. I would hazard a guess that Charlotte handled the messages the same way. I have a little note stuck somewhere that I'm not looking at it every day, so I don't tune out to it. I just come across it randomly. It's a powerful thing for me to remember. "Those that try to pull you down are already beneath you." God bless all of you.
I hope the 2022 New Year is wonderful and beautiful for you and your family. I have enjoyed your videos immensely! They are never too long. I want to share a treatment for gout since you have mentioned it several times. Acupuncture is fabulous for reducing pain. It does not hurt. It makes you feel great all over. Find a Chinese doctor who will read your pulse. You will be pleasantly surprised by the results and the value.
I really love your videos and I’m not a horseman (although I always wanted to be). I’d love to offer a suggestion in your videos. Sometimes the viewer can’t hear what you and the owner are saying. There are clip on microphones for everyone involved in the training so everything can be heard. Just a loving suggestion. God bless. Susan from Texas
Agreed, the videos are so helpful d would be even more so with a muffle for the mikes against wind, holding the camera in portrait, and someone suggested a go pro which Tanya could then wear on her head or shoulder instead of having to hold the phone in her hand all the time. Steve and Tanya’s team work with horses is precious and worth the better equipment if Tanya is up for learning how to use it! I bet a lot of us would chip on to help them buy good video equipment.
Guys interesting to hear you speak of the terrible tornadoes here in the states. I live in Northern Utah, in the foothills of the Paramount Movie Logo. We are in a horrible drought. Pray for rain/snow.
It is fantastic to watch you train horses. After a long day we all realize that your arms must get tired directing these problem horses. Training horses requires a lot of walking too.
I WAS GOING TO THANK YOU FOR DOING WHAT UR DOING..&..FOR SHAREING IT WITH EVERYONE..THEN I READ WHAT OTHERS SAY..THEY BEAT ME TO IT... GOD BLESS.....( HOW BIG IS A HORSE'S BRAIN ? )
Got the farrier coming for a trim tomorrow and after watching several of your videos, I went out and bought a couple of licks yesterday. I wanted the small ones but the shop I went to didn't have much by way of choice. Got my Merlin a 'narner' flavoured one. He *loves* narners. Hopefully it'll take his mind off what's going on. Not that he gets *really* upset or kicks or bites but I want him to stand nice and still and pull the poor chap about.
What was the stuff Willow was licking out if the neon green or blue shallow round tins? Edit: I think I figured it out. Don’t think we have this in the USA: is it “Horslyx”? Edit again: of course, anything is available from Amazon
I'm an avid fan of your technique's, and your so kind and patient, I do have a question concerning donkey's, would your technique work on their psyche?. Keep up your good works helping horses and owners. Mrs S. HARTLAND
Can’t believe poor Dan is having to deal with her hooves filled with mud - surely it would have been better to keep her in the stable. Who’d want to be a farrier eh?
Do you always take the wolf teeth out? My boy puts his tongue over the bit when it’s in his mouth so I’m thinking to ride bitless… he’s a big boy so would love your thoughts on bitless riding. My bot is a Friesian Paint Carrie’s his head high.
With respect to the first mare ... sometimes it's just a 'word' (but with horse you show or demonstrate the word) is all they need, in order to feel safe. The mare no longer felt threatened resulting from your first visit ... and it seems to have transferred to other situations.
I always had success by taking a lead rope around the front fetlocks and pull one leg at a time till the horse moved forward. Keep pulling one leg, then the other till they are stretched out and uncomfortable. The horse will then step forward to get comfortable again. Then resume pulling one leg at a time till the horse needs to take the back feet up again for comfort. I’ve never known that method to fail except if the horse has never been roped around the legs. There was a time when that one important step in a horse’s education was neglected, but it’s important to teach a horse never to fight when it’s legs are constrained in case they get caught up in wire . The latest method appears to be to tap with a stick on the rump till they step forward to get out of the way of the discomfort of the stick, but I can see someone getting hurt if the horse takes a huge leap forward, trampling the handler
Steve taps on the side of the horse exactly where leg and foot pressure would be used by a rider to guide the horse. This seems really intelligent to me because you are gently training the horse from any young age towards being a riding horse!
I looked it up, it’s actually called a CLEG FLY. Wildlife trust has this to say for them: “The Notch-horned cleg-fly is a common species of horse fly that lives in long grassland and damp woodland habitats. The females have sharp, biting mouthparts and usually feed on the blood of large mammals, such as cows and horses. The males lack these mouthparts, so feed on nectar. Females wait in shady areas for their prey to pass-by, locating it by sight with their large, compound eyes. The eggs are laid on stones and plants, or in mud, close to water. When the larvae hatch, they fall on to the damp earth where they predate other invertebrates.”
Here's the first video for Willow (4:25 in this video): th-cam.com/video/EFljReerno4/w-d-xo.html Steve's visit to Joe (owned by Ellie) begins at 25:20 in this video. Steve's second visit to Joe is here: th-cam.com/video/e5T_C8_AtZY/w-d-xo.html Steve mentions Duke (Formally known as Mouse) at 1:15:15 on this 1/4/22 video. This 11/17/21 video is the first one of Duke (Formally known as Mickey, formally known as Mouse): th-cam.com/video/cCMy6S_Voso/w-d-xo.html Lastly, at 6:30 in Steve's 5/7/22 video: th-cam.com/video/yOrazMlyu0Y/w-d-xo.html Please join Steve's supporter group to watch the full story of Duke.
After achieving this is the fear re established after a horse actually is enclosed and travels in a trailer ? If so how can that be prevented ? I had a horse that was finally relaxed going in but then was terrified once on the move and every time the load was problematic .
Same problems as the other videos: horse treated as reader and "guesser" of human mind and thoughts and punished when it guesses wrong. Another horse wrecked by ignorance and then treated to the "guesswork" method of rehabilitation and nothing confirmed.
Please purchase a Bluetooth microphone that you can wear so that we can hear you better when you are working with the horse. It is very hard to hear what you are saying when you are with the horse far away from the camera/phone that is doing the recording. Thanks!
Fell of the ramp, no wonder the horse was scared. Maby lowering the head with only two feet on the ramp and positive reinforcement could have helped to calm him. To add to the rest fase of the training.
you only post the horses that ya do what you do with..turn them in their stall, rock their neck, ugh. If ya ever had a horse ya couldn't do anything with I bet ya wouldn't post

Well done Dan and Steve. Not many farriers would have trimmed feet in those muddy conditions. X
Wow what a messy day and ground. You never complained 🎉
I'm hooked! I so appreciate your style, patience and understanding of the horse. May your business boom!!!!
Pity there’s only one of him. 🤗
Your are such a gift to troubled horses. A true life saver!!
If only I had know your method 40 years ago. Your method makes so much sense. 💥❤❤❤❤
They can be very dangerous. A woman near me was leading a horse to pasture when it reared up and hit her in the head and she died. Just walking to the pasture.
That’s awful and very sad 😢
It just shows how well calm confidence works with horses
You are a relationship coach really, improving the relationship between the horse and human.
Brilliant. You have made such a difference to their lives .
Great Video ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 thanks for Sharing
I just love Tanya's sense of humor! She is brilliant with the filming too! Never shakey with the camera, always nice, still shots. 👍😊💜
Love your shirt !!! & that doggie OMG 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🎄🎄🎄🎄💖💖💖💖
I love her laughter at the sheer delight of seeing the horse load.
No, not long at all! Time flies because I sit without taking my eyes off the screen! I remember Ellie! You and Tanya were so cute at the end…like two little jolly elves!
Thank you for adding peace and joy for the horses and in the lives of their people. Very touching. I just love listening to the exchange between everyone 🙂 makes me happy to be able to share in the peace and joy too🌾
Handling a horse properly is such a benefit to all. They need to trust.
I love that horse Christmas Tree T-Shirt! Beautiful! And how much patience went into that trailer session again! Fantastic job! And so good to see Willow doing so well too!
You've brought some much needed peace and a real sense of accomplishment, to two needy horses and their loving owners. Job well done 👍.
It's amazing what you did for this horse. I'm from Austin, Texas and sharing your video.
I am from Round Rock
I watching from Marion TX! Great training videos!
The farrier is an agreeable and amiable guy, working in that muddy slop.
Oh my gosh! What a great video and Ellie’s laugh, showing her joy at the end, was beautiful music to my ears. How happy you’ve made her. Brilliant and so enjoyable!
He was loving going in the trailer! Great job Steve! 👏👏🥰
Wow you have had some scary horses 😯 but I watch ever video and I am amazed how you get them to a good place where their owners can continue safely 😍
It is great to see Willow doing so much better! I learn so much from every video. Is Tanya up for using a more professional camera and mike, someone suggested a go pro (which could ease Tanya’s job of videoing tremendously) and a fluffy wind blocking thing on the mikes, one also clipped to Steve.

Yes, those were very dangerous horses! What an interesting and amazing video! Job well done👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Hello from Kentucky. Thank you for your empathy to our severe weather. It has made our community stronger. I am unable to find the sweet feed treats. Can you please share where I can find these small containers. Bless you for your skill and patience with the horses.
Enjoy your videos immensely!
I think, the sweet treat he uses with Willow, is a 'LikIt' refill.
The best video I've ever seen. And Tanya's response couldn't have been more lovely. Best horseman anywhere. I can't say enough good things.
Your efforts and breakthroughs are terrific. Love your friendly personalities and clear communication. Thank you for all your kindness in everything you do and in sharing your knowledge for us.
Sooooo gratifying to see how well this went with the black horse. Kudos to you Steve.
Im glad you are back! Truly appreciate and missed your videos from central Illinois.
Slopping around in muck to your knees “we don’t get any extreme weather here…”😆🤣🤔
I felt so bad for this horse...clearly terrified. So glad you could help it work through it. Bravo.
Speaking of weather, I am in Littleton, CO and I watched Louisville burn. Winds reached 109 mph. The wind spread the fire and it lit the rooves of houses like candles on a cake. About 1000 houses burned to the ground because it is so dry here. We don't get any type of precipitation for 6 months at a time.

Move
I don’t have a horse & I am too old to think of one now, but I have loved them since I went to rodeo parades as a child. I simply love your videos.
That was a amazing video to watch, thank you. Enjoyed every minute. Marvellous work, you are amazing 😀

So you and Tanya top the list
Having an arthritic back….Sara is my hero!!
♥ The Misfits movie where Marilyn goes in and out of the doorway, "I can go out! I can go in!"
Well that was just beautiful to watch! Both for Joe and for Ellie. Love your videos! Thank you for the way you teach and help horse and owner and all who tune into your videos. 😊👍🐴

So good to see Willow has retained her training and trust 👍👍😁❤️
Adorable Santa doggie!!!
Wow that trailer must have cost an arm and a leg!!
Love your videos just wish they fit the TV screen and were wider
Willow is so inspirational, showing changes can happen with the right care! 25:31

It is fantastic to watch you train horses. After a long day we all realize that your arms must get tired directing these problem horses. Training horses requires a lot of walking too.
Love watching your videos. I'm inspired to do more ground training with my somewhat opinionated but well-loved mare😄
Good holiday toast. Thank you for sharing.
I love that dark Cob! What a sweet boy! I would take him in a second....from America, guess not. ❤
I have a spooky springy Arab, I am learning so much. Thank you for sharing your wisdom x
It seems like it rains a lot there? ☔️
I would love to help me with my mare Steve , do you come as far as Leicester
Merry Christmas. Happy New Year
landscape format please :)
So sweet, what a change!
If I had to live that close to traffic I’d been on edge too.
Like your Christmas sweater! ❤️🎄
Merry Christmas!

Dart gun. WILD ELEPHANTS, Hippos, lions, Cape buffalo, bears. All manner of dangerous beasts can be subdued. A bit difficult to train that way.

Your dog was swearing at you!!
