Possibly not an accident, piaffe has historically be used in war as a holding pattern. I have heard of mounted police using the movement that way as well. It’s keeping the horse engaged with the rider so he doesn’t start freaking out as well.
That wasn't accidental..that horse was dancing.He may have been a former show horse...these horses get adopted out to the Police force..That gorgeous horse looks to be part lippizen, or Andalusian with that flowing mane, and tail.. they are usually in show.
Ambria Daniels abused? Wow 😂 sooo what your saying it that it’s his fault for getting after the horse because it’s clearly acting up. See we created things like spurs, crops, whips etc. to teach the horse that what they did is wrong, if you just sit there and let it happen the horse will think “oh! I can get away with this and have to do less work!” And overall the horse will keep doing it again and again and again until someone gets hurt.
@@endacraig1 well, you are the one who obviously don't know about it. This man reminded calm, he wasn't screaming at his horse, he wasn't beating him, kicking him, anything like that. He simply helped his horse to calm down. Obviously it was younger horse in training, so that's why he was scared. Sorry not sorry for my english
You never know what will "spook" a horse. I wonder if it was the blue garbage can to the left? I also noted the comment below that the horse didn't like the surface under his hooves. We had a horse that would get crazy in the fall whenever leaves blew into his stall. Great job calming the horse while teaching him to move forward. Both riders are highly skilled. And both horses are beautiful !!
Both are beautiful horses! He did very well with his horse. I had a friend whose horse was afraid of the lines painted on the road. Especially crosswalks. So he would borrow my horse to be an outrider for parades that had horses pulling wagons.
Quien lo monta, no tiene el nivel necesario. El caballo tiene casta y el ginetes abre la pierna izquierda, arrima la derecha constante, no le da aire y el caballo va hecho un lío, no sabe lo que quiere el ginetes. Opinan sin tener ni idea.
Love to see how the rider stayed calm and relaxed, did not yank the mouth and kept a soft rein so as to not give this horse any more reason to feel a little frightened and perhaps claustrophobic in the crowded city. He did not lose his temper or become frustrated to the point of giving any unnecessary punishment. No matter how "bombproof" a horse may seem they still have their flight instincts, and one would be ignorant to not be prepared and aware of the fact a horse can still get spooked. Their bond saved this horse from completely losing his shit and bolting off, since, even though he was obviously very on edge, he still managed to listen to his rider in the end, turning to him for reassurance and confidence. If only more people were able to handle situations like this with their horses in a grounded leadership mentality. Big difference between being the "boss" and being a leader for the horse.
@@StallionBY Unless you're kicking like a maniac, the horse feels a bit of a nudge from spurs that would bloody us immediately. If you don't believe me, take the shedding blade your horse loves to be brushed with and run it along your own body, see how good it feels to you.
Again, this movement is a standard police horse-trained movement for moving people in crowds. The horse was not upset or frightened or anything but obedient, certainly not "runaway". Still, I don't like the spurs, shank bits, etc.
Please that was just a hissy fit jumping at shadows and not liking the surface it was having to walk on. That was certainly not a runaway. However the rider was very calm and skilled ensuring it didnt get out of hand.
Ambria Daniels That horse looks to be young, a little over stimulated but he probably LOVES his job. There was a day that I clapped my hands about 600 feet away from one of my horses. He got so spoked he turned our metal gate into a V (he didn’t have a scratch on him) after that he turned his brain on and went back to eating grass. That’s just horses.
Afke Brolsma the police horses however need to desensitize to these things, however. The unit does not need horses rearing in fear at the sound of sirens.
I've ridden in a lot of parades in mounted colorguards. One year we returned to annual parade where it was once a wide street, had been remodeled with island in the middle. It made for narrow path, and the perspective to the horses was tight passage through sea of toddlers in strollers, with building at the end. Two of our horses acted the same that day as this video here. Narrow tree-lined sidewalk. Horses see all around them and this horse was having claustrophobia. I hope he improved and became a good cop.
@@endacraig1 becuase you are that sturdy on a horse he was clearly trying to turn the horse in circles but the horse wasnt listening so he is going to use his spurs
I agree with 601salsa in some ways. This Andalusian Stallion is trying to avoid something scaring him which is ahead of him. I wonder if it is the blue box (garbage bin?) to the left of him, because once he passed it, he was fine. I like the way the two riders worked so well together, first by letting this white Andalusian Stallion go pass on the right, so the brown Andalusian Stallion took the lead to the left. Great team, stayed calm and collected and did not feed any added fear into either stallion. Good job.

I can't believe they're allowed to ride without helmets! On a concrete surface, if he comes off and hits his head... I realise that helmet-wearing is much less prevalent in some parts of the world, but the kind of work mounted police do and the environments in which they work would place them at far greater risk of falling off and getting injured than a rider just practicing dressage in a sand arena.
Wife and I own a horse, and we love riding. Have made some great friends too. But one thing is for sure, lots of equestrians have lots of opinions on what everyone else should be doing.

@@bladelizdemon Very direct instructions to do what precisely? ..... Standing under the shade of the tree was an accidental destination and where the horse stood quietly the spur having been removed. The continued prolonged use of the spur indicates that this rider has little regard for it's proper use. There are many things here which would call into question this rider's mindset. In any event this was hardly an acceptable location for an attempted training session if indeed that's what it was. This, as you can see, is a highly strung young stallion. ..... you call it ' pressure ' .... i call it abuse . He should be grounded permanently.
endacraig1 it looked to me like the horse was spooking at shadow from the start so rider was asking horse to stand on shadow (under tree) to see there was nothing to be afraid of. Again, you must have seen something I didn’t.

Horses can be silly creatures. One gelding I loved to bits was 99.9% bombproof, alright one time he kicked a bus because it got 2 foot from his arse, but otherwise nothing bothered him. A bit of a tank being a percheron/Irish Draft horse. Horses spooking and running into him? Act like a roadblock. Illegal dirtbikers riding kind of dangerously and reving their engines, no problem! Put them in their place when they discover the collosal size of this animal. Little white butterfly boops him on the nose? OH HELL NAW! There was also this one other horse that managed to find a tiny sweet wrapper amongst the recycled material schooling surface. It was like, one out of a box of sweets and somehow THAT was scary. You never know what might be out there to get them LOL.
Oh. I feel that white butterfly spook. My mare is perfect with most traffic, tractors, tarps, umbrellas, etc. But she dumped me because of a cricket. Wasn't even a big cricket.
Yes! I've known horses like that. My pal Nehemiah would squeeze between the gatepost and front end loader when we would plow out the barnyard but if he saw one anywhere else it was on like Donkey Kong. Another mare would respond to the same exact item like a ditch or a tree. One time it would be fine another time she would spook. Kept you on your toes for sure
Not a runaway. Just a training session of the white horse walking on shadows of the trees and lamps. Horse is thinking "OMG.. that is a bottomless hole. No way." Dancing around trying to avoid putting feet onto the shadow. Beautiful Andalusian. Good rider calmly doing training. Second rider & horse are helping. I do think that riders should wear helmets, just in case.
Idk what you definition of equestrian is but ive been breaking green horses then training and selling them for years now and your comment hurt me bit haha. In my experience nobody talks to their horses like that except for in the movies and people who think the movies are realistic. In all reality speaking to a horse like that which you already have saddled and/or are sitting on is more confusing to it. Especially since a well trained horse should have very specific commands it follows only and everything else it should ignore. By that i mean where you said "whoooa calm down your okay" one of my horses would have locked up at the word whoah, then ignored every other word. And if you are to the point where you are trying to calm a horse by speaking like that the horse must be very untrained, and if the horse is trained you may want to try calming it with body language and touch. They are much more effective to a horse that trusts you, or has literally ever had a rider on it. I wouldn't have jumped on this comment if you hadn't said "im such an equestrian LOL" horse enthusiasts say that, not equestrians. And in all reality people like me who use horses as tools instead of pets find the term equestrian pretty annoying in the first place since it is generally associated with poorly trained horses and riders.
Pay attention to the horses ears too. Their ears are the same as the body. If you're not paying attention the horse won't give you its direct attention.
Someone I know who is very experienced in this field is Dr. Temple Grandin PhD ~ look at her here on TH-cam ~ she does plenty of lectures on TH-cam. Yes she is also autistic and written loads of books on animal behaviour and autism. Wonderful individual if you can get her DVD on how she grew up. Actress Claire Danes plays her in the DVD simply called "Temple Grandin".
This rider is AMAZING but i have no clue why the horse appears stressed. I'm sure his owner is very aware. But they found the PERFECT mounted police officer

Tutti sono bravi a dare i consigli speroni , colica , paura . Nella polizia non hai possibilità di scegliere. Ti viene assegnato un cavallo e quello è... Comunque cavalli sono animali hanno anche loro dei giorni si è dei giorni no...
As others have pointed out, some of this nervous behavior was probably a reaction to the shadows. But sometimes horses act like this when they want to be in the lead. From their point of view, this is a competition with the other horse.
Perhaps we can let the horses go live at a sanctuary and leave them alone. In modern times/cities they just look like they're being used as show pieces to walk around on. They walk by me in my city and I feel sad for the horses being trotted around on major loud streets, they're so sensitive. Is there a point to sitting up on a horse, in a downtown city? #banhorsecarriages #adoptdontshop #horsesanctuaries #retirepolicehorses #VEGANISM
The title was a lie , there isn’t a runaway horse. I don’t care if you are lying to get subscribers , all liars will have their part in the lake of fire. God is greater than TH-cam . If your videos are good then you do not have to falsely advertise your videos with lying titles.

I think he should have gotten off and checked under the saddle and or maybe given the horse some water or something. Something was obviously bothering that horse. Those horses are trained very well, and for it to act like that leads me to believe that there was something either under the saddle that was bothering her/him or maybe it was having a heat stroke. That can happen! Just from the way both horses tried to get underneath the trees in the shade for a minute indicated to me that they were excessively over heated.
Beautifully handled by the officer. No panic, no overreacting, no harsh punishment, worked the horse past the scary object without anyone getting hurt, including the horse.

This horse is simply unprepared to do what he is being asked to do. His temperament may not ever allow him to be a police horse. Using horses for mounted police work is not abuse despite what some may think. The trained mounted officer is the equivalent of ten officers on foot and that is a conservative estimate. The operative term is a trained pair: to wit, both the officer and horse. This horse is a detriment at the time of the filming and if the horse had been properly trained and desensitized the officer/trainer would have known if the horse was ready to place a hoof on the street. The mounted officer has skills and is using them; however, this horse is no where near ready for patrol work and that comes down to human error for allowing this situation to get to this point. The training at this stage NEVER takes place on the street. It is simply too dangerous for all involved:; to wit: the Officer, the horse and the public The back-up officer and horse need to get over to this pair, get a hold of the white horse and escort the pair back to the stables. Moving away from the horse and officer having trouble is making it worse. Make no mistake this is a situation which is one phone call away from CNN. Written by a retired police officer who served on a police mounted patrol both as an officer and trainer for the Unit.
Thank you for your service sir! I rather agree with your assessment. Had it gone further, the grey would quickly have become a 1200 pound danger to the people he is being trained to protect. It looked like this happened next to a cafe with outdoor seating, and there were plenty of people walking by on the other side of the trees. Looks like they need to head back yo the yard for some more sacking out...
You know nothing for all your claimed experience. This is ignorant abuse of a horse. Continuous spurring ( right leg ) for no apparent reason makes this a case of cruelty. This rider does not deserve this horse and shoud be reported for unnecessary cruelty.
@@endacraig1 The horse deserves a lot worse than what it got. And you don't deserve the protection our police give you. Your attitude is self righteous, ignorant and shameful. You are so concerned for an animal who would kill you to get its own rear to safety, but you care nothing for the brave men and women who daily put their lives on the line for all of us. You are a disgrace.
Watched the video twice and the second time noticed that the rear legs were weak and the horse was moving into the side where the rider had the spur to the horse. There is definitely something medically wrong with the horse.
This is so hard on the horses legs and feet. Yeah so brilliant steel shoes forced to stop on concrete. Think the ones that thinks this is awesome should try on those shoes and stomp on concrete

@@bladelizdemon Very direct instructions to do what precisely? ..... Standing under the shade of the tree was an accidental destination and where the horse stood quietly the spur having been removed. The continued prolonged use of the spur indicates that this rider has little regard for it's proper use. There are many things here which would call into question this rider's mindset. In any event this was hardly an acceptable location for an attempted training session if indeed that's what it was. This, as you can see, is a highly strung young stallion. ..... you call it ' pressure ' .... i call it abuse . He should be grounded permanently.
endacraig1 it looked to me like the horse was spooking at shadow from the start so rider was asking horse to stand on shadow (under tree) to see there was nothing to be afraid of.
Again, you must have seen something I didn’t.
Thank you for not killing the horses mouth to keep him “under control” you did a great with soft hands
Pity about his ignorant unnecessary spurring ( right leg ) or did you not see this.
endacraig1 yeah still horrible but better than most
Again, this movement is a standard police horse-trained movement for moving people in crowds. The horse was not upset or frightened or anything but obedient, certainly not "runaway". Still, I don't like the spurs, shank bits, etc.
The horse is clearly agitated. The rider is doing a great job of controlling him. He is no a run a way.
The rider did a great job of staying calm and steady with the reins and letting the horse figure things out .
Very experienced rider for sure. He stayed calm and positive. Gave the horse confidence to go forward without fear 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️

Alexander the Great had the same problem almost 3000 years ago!
Back right leg was giving out thats why the horse lost it
Absolutely gorgeous horse 💕
Run away horse ??? 🤨
The policeman was calming and gentle to the horse
Horses can be silly creatures. One gelding I loved to bits was 99.9% bombproof, alright one time he kicked a bus because it got 2 foot from his arse, but otherwise nothing bothered him. A bit of a tank being a percheron/Irish Draft horse.
Horses spooking and running into him? Act like a roadblock.
Illegal dirtbikers riding kind of dangerously and reving their engines, no problem! Put them in their place when they discover the collosal size of this animal.
Little white butterfly boops him on the nose? OH HELL NAW!
There was also this one other horse that managed to find a tiny sweet wrapper amongst the recycled material schooling surface. It was like, one out of a box of sweets and somehow THAT was scary.
You never know what might be out there to get them LOL.
Oh. I feel that white butterfly spook. My mare is perfect with most traffic, tractors, tarps, umbrellas, etc. But she dumped me because of a cricket. Wasn't even a big cricket.
Yes! I've known horses like that. My pal Nehemiah would squeeze between the gatepost and front end loader when we would plow out the barnyard but if he saw one anywhere else it was on like Donkey Kong. Another mare would respond to the same exact item like a ditch or a tree. One time it would be fine another time she would spook. Kept you on your toes for sure
Good horse man well done
Well done, keeping the horse calm whilst he is trying to get his feet. Proper training takes a while and you seem to be doing a fine job.
He handled that very well 👏🏼 good technique putting him under the tree 🌳
Green horse with expert rider!
Первый раз на асфальте 🥴
Does anyone know why he’s riding a stallion for this purpose? I have seen them use stallions before.
That’s what I thought too.
Why not
Has he got one of the awful bits in his mouth he could be in pain
idk what but he has but it looks like he was scared of his shadow, not in pain
The heat from the concrete was heating the horse shoes. Notice that the horse calms down when standing on the shadow.
He is a realy good rider!
It's simple... the horse does not like their rider... the old man should have just got off, but he didn't. Horse: I'm having none of this!
Can ya re-upload this with some salsa music or something! 😁🤣
Horsy wants to go to the beach, not to work. I see some of them in Retiro Park e very day. They are gorgeous
Who titled this?? Lol have you ever seen a horse run off with someone? This was not it😮
Andalusians 🤦♀️ well ridden and delt with by the rider(s), calm and easy. Let the horse figure its self out without being forced or pressured
Great handling. Nice job keeping it from rearing or bolting!
Not a runaway. Just a training session of the white horse walking on shadows of the trees and lamps. Horse is thinking "OMG.. that is a bottomless hole. No way." Dancing around trying to avoid putting feet onto the shadow. Beautiful Andalusian. Good rider calmly doing training. Second rider & horse are helping. I do think that riders should wear helmets, just in case.
Im sitting here like " Whoooa calm down your okay," Im such an eqestrian LOL The horse cant even hear me XD
same, i kept on saying "wooo ooo, steady now, shhh its ok, i'm here" XD
Tasneem Blackwell i did that too XD
Same 😂
Idk what you definition of equestrian is but ive been breaking green horses then training and selling them for years now and your comment hurt me bit haha. In my experience nobody talks to their horses like that except for in the movies and people who think the movies are realistic. In all reality speaking to a horse like that which you already have saddled and/or are sitting on is more confusing to it. Especially since a well trained horse should have very specific commands it follows only and everything else it should ignore. By that i mean where you said "whoooa calm down your okay" one of my horses would have locked up at the word whoah, then ignored every other word. And if you are to the point where you are trying to calm a horse by speaking like that the horse must be very untrained, and if the horse is trained you may want to try calming it with body language and touch. They are much more effective to a horse that trusts you, or has literally ever had a rider on it. I wouldn't have jumped on this comment if you hadn't said "im such an equestrian LOL" horse enthusiasts say that, not equestrians. And in all reality people like me who use horses as tools instead of pets find the term equestrian pretty annoying in the first place since it is generally associated with poorly trained horses and riders.
Pay attention to the horses ears too. Their ears are the same as the body. If you're not paying attention the horse won't give you its direct attention.
Someone I know who is very experienced in this field is Dr. Temple Grandin PhD ~ look at her here on TH-cam ~ she does plenty of lectures on TH-cam. Yes she is also autistic and written loads of books on animal behaviour and autism. Wonderful individual if you can get her DVD on how she grew up. Actress Claire Danes plays her in the DVD simply called "Temple Grandin".
Calm competent rider-bravo!
This rider is AMAZING but i have no clue why the horse appears stressed. I'm sure his owner is very aware.
But they found the PERFECT mounted police officer
How can these horses spook so beautifully? They’re adorable 😊

Tutti sono bravi a dare i consigli speroni , colica , paura . Nella polizia non hai possibilità di scegliere. Ti viene assegnato un cavallo e quello è... Comunque cavalli sono animali hanno anche loro dei giorni si è dei giorni no...
As others have pointed out, some of this nervous behavior was probably a reaction to the shadows. But sometimes horses act like this when they want to be in the lead. From their point of view, this is a competition with the other horse.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing. If the other horse had walked on I think the white horse would have followed it.
Perhaps we can let the horses go live at a sanctuary and leave them alone. In modern times/cities they just look like they're being used as show pieces to walk around on. They walk by me in my city and I feel sad for the horses being trotted around on major loud streets, they're so sensitive. Is there a point to sitting up on a horse, in a downtown city? #banhorsecarriages #adoptdontshop #horsesanctuaries #retirepolicehorses #VEGANISM
"And now, I must dance!"
this pretty much a "tantrum" pretty common with horses when they want to lead but have to stay behind another horse. nicely handle
The horse was just Tap dancing. That was beautiful!
The title was a lie , there isn’t a runaway horse. I don’t care if you are lying to get subscribers , all liars will have their part in the lake of fire. God is greater than TH-cam . If your videos are good then you do not have to falsely advertise your videos with lying titles.
I think the heat rising from the surface was unsettling him bit like a cat on a hot tin roof.

You can nail horse shoes into the hooves without them feeling any pain at all. Why would you think they would feel a hot pavement?
Andalusian?
That was my guess too, he's gorgeous.
I think he should have gotten off and checked under the saddle and or maybe given the horse some water or something. Something was obviously bothering that horse. Those horses are trained very well, and for it to act like that leads me to believe that there was something either under the saddle that was bothering her/him or maybe it was having a heat stroke. That can happen! Just from the way both horses tried to get underneath the trees in the shade for a minute indicated to me that they were excessively over heated.
Wow can't get over some of these comments. Haha
Beautifully handled by the officer. No panic, no overreacting, no harsh punishment, worked the horse past the scary object without anyone getting hurt, including the horse.
It seems you missed the totally unnecessary spurring of the horse ......... i would reccommend a trip to Specsavers
When did it runaway?
Policías en la calle y los caballos sin los calzados que por regla general en todos los países tienen que ponerles, son zapatos especiales para ellos,hasta en los países más pobres los caballos que andan en el asfalto, ciudad , etc,etc,van con calzado,es cosa de ver que el va inseguro ,porque resbalan con herraduras. Pobres que deficiencia.👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
I like police horses they are cool
ASSWIPE. BECOME ONE AND SEE HOW YOU LIKE POLICE HORSES
@@ambriadaniels8786 It would sure beat reading your moronic responses everywhere.
Look like This Horse may have anxiety attack or dizzy black out I don't know.
This guy refuses to reward the horse by taking the spurs out of his side. Total rider fault.
*clack clack clack clickty click clack click*
Horse: *MY GOD....IM MAKING MY OWN THEME SONG. HEY STEVE CHECK THIS OUT!*
This horse is simply unprepared to do what he is being asked to do. His temperament may not ever allow him to be a police horse. Using horses for mounted police work is not abuse despite what some may think. The trained mounted officer is the equivalent of ten officers on foot and that is a conservative estimate. The operative term is a trained pair: to wit, both the officer and horse. This horse is a detriment at the time of the filming and if the horse had been properly trained and desensitized the officer/trainer would have known if the horse was ready to place a hoof on the street. The mounted officer has skills and is using them; however, this horse is no where near ready for patrol work and that comes down to human error for allowing this situation to get to this point. The training at this stage NEVER takes place on the street. It is simply too dangerous for all involved:; to wit: the Officer, the horse and the public The back-up officer and horse need to get over to this pair, get a hold of the white horse and escort the pair back to the stables. Moving away from the horse and officer having trouble is making it worse. Make no mistake this is a situation which is one phone call away from CNN. Written by a retired police officer who served on a police mounted patrol both as an officer and trainer for the Unit.
Thank you for your service sir! I rather agree with your assessment. Had it gone further, the grey would quickly have become a 1200 pound danger to the people he is being trained to protect. It looked like this happened next to a cafe with outdoor seating, and there were plenty of people walking by on the other side of the trees. Looks like they need to head back yo the yard for some more sacking out...
just like an officer and his canine partner, they have to get use to each other then things will fall into place.
You know nothing for all your claimed experience. This is ignorant abuse of a horse. Continuous spurring ( right leg ) for no apparent reason makes this a case of cruelty. This rider does not deserve this horse and shoud be reported for unnecessary cruelty.
@@endacraig1 The horse deserves a lot worse than what it got. And you don't deserve the protection our police give you. Your attitude is self righteous, ignorant and shameful. You are so concerned for an animal who would kill you to get its own rear to safety, but you care nothing for the brave men and women who daily put their lives on the line for all of us. You are a disgrace.
I have an Adalusian, too, but I think I'd do the Spanish walk rather than what that fella is doing.
1staccare gli speroni dalla pancia.
2si vede chiaramente che il cavallo non é abbituato a stare dove ce rumore.
Julı Sky gli speroni è vero ma che il cavallo che nn é abituato nn è vero i cavalli della polizia sn addestrati
Account Eliminatoh abbituato?
Ha paura della sua ombra. Non vedi che sotto l'ombra dell'albero si è calmato?
1 non sai quello che dici,2 ha paura dell ombra dell albero, poliziotto perfetto!
@@germanomagazzinoresaeaglep5743 bullshit .........total ignorance
Watched the video twice and the second time noticed that the rear legs were weak and the horse was moving into the side where the rider had the spur to the horse. There is definitely something medically wrong with the horse.
If he got his spurs out of its side and put his heels down things might be more smooth..
Any time my horses did this I said he was practicing his dressage 😀
Nice and cool guy.....thank you staying so cool and friendly
What a gorgeous horse. Great team work.
NOT GREAT TEAM WORK IDIOT. TERRIBLE
@@ambriadaniels8786 What a kind person you are!
il cavallo nn è imbizzarrito basta staccare gli speroni dalle costole del cavallo

2 il rumore dei ferri sull asfalto può fare molta paura ai cavalli poi quello scemo che li é passato a due centimetri non migliora le cose
meyusta
è meglio se gli danno una biccicletta a questo poliziotto
Runaway?!
David Rosado wheres the runaway?
Little jigging, definitely no runaway
David Rosado
This is so hard on the horses legs and feet. Yeah so brilliant steel shoes forced to stop on concrete. Think the ones that thinks this is awesome should try on those shoes and stomp on concrete
must be somepony's first day on the job lol
He is like hi there shadow wanna dance lol too cute that police officer have alot of patience
