@Morgan Conley yes..today..i dont find in the horse world the bond of trust you see between these two. But sometimes see it in the kid and horse everyday life. Sadly..too many horses are trained..than handed to rider/owner and no deep bondwas built.
Really good, impressig, nice to see dressage riders practising horsemanship, BUT: Why can't he just leave that damn mouthcloser??? It would work also without.
The olympics would then change it so that riders would have to work with a different horse just as what caused the hoopla this year. Each horse is different as is each rider. Would you trust someone that you have never worked with? Just like the all star ball games, it is hard to perform at the same rate they do with their own team. If the olympics would leave a horse with it’s own rider and trainer there would be a lot less problems and each would be far more comfortable and perform better. No justification for hitting the horse, but the Olympic committee that made the rules are just as guilty because they either don’t care or they are too dumb to know this.
And moreover, the regularity of her stride in the trot NEVER CHANGES! Not an ear back; not the slightest tension. This video is a MASTER CLASS in deconditioning the flight response in the horse. And as someone who has spent decades in the academic study and application of these principles to the ethical training of horses and dogs, I salute this person and this lovely mare!
It's not because Esmeralda is special, it's because she got good training. Your horse can be like Esmeralda too if you invest some time into training him/her!
You don't start training a horse from 4 years old- that is the age they can be ridden. Before that age; other skills will be taught; accepting a mouthing bit, being led,tied up, grooming exposure to 'spooky' items like tarps are done long before a saddle goes anywhere near that horse's back. Esmeralda is a very well balanced mare who has received early exposure to tarps.
Wow, Esmeralda (perfect name) only 4 years! She is still so young for such accomplishments. Beautiful mover too. And Will's handling (and lack of) reminds me of Mia Lykke Nielsen's technique. Just beautiful. Thank you!
I think the closest I've seen to this elsewhere is Emily, from the TH-cam channel Snake Discovery, grooming her macaw Cheynne. Every parrot I've ever seen HATES getting their claws and beak trimmed (you have to use a dremmel type power tool to do it), even the calmest, best trained birds have to be wrapped in a towel, or at the very least be held by one person whilst the other trims. Cheyenne just calmly lies on her back, completely unrestrained, with her feet in the air, until Emily's done. Emily says in the video that Cheyenne knows she'll get lots of treats afterwards, but still, the level of trust that shows... It's an old video, but you should be able to find it if you search.
The crazy thing is he probably isn't even using his voice that much. Horses are so sensitive to your own tension and feelings and subtle cues, the best riders don't usually need to actually speak to them
I dont own a horse, have never owned a horse, but man... this bond of trust & respect left me utterly gobsmacked and close to tears. Amazing... beautiful!!
Did we notice his feeling, gentle , steady hands??? She's such a lovely friend... My horse in teenage years... Had been a man's stockhorse...I lived in Sydney's nthn beaches... He would rear and run backward on a particular road with a left bend and hill to it... 1970's..He hated that blue flapping plastic over trailer sailers on people's front verges( between front fence and the road( usually grass))... He got to the point I could ride without using reins ( loose)or any lower calf or heel... As he learned to trust me, my conversational voice was enough.....mostly( haha)... He certainly did not get to the point this lovely grey mare has...re blue plastic tarpaulins.. However, he became very calm re traffic, barking dogs, tooting cars etc... With my young nephews and nieces, he was like a gentle Labrador. Rubber pelham.. A beautiful video..Bringing back evocative memories.. He was 5 ...
Zoiets nog nooit gezien, Esmeralda is trouwens maar 4 jaar, als trainer is hij uitstekend straalt rust en vertrouwen uit die zorgt voor ontspanning. Een sterke band tussen mens en paard. Zoals de paardenfluisterraar. Een dikke proficiat aan beiden 👏👌👍😍😍
This actually made me cry with joy. Tears all over. This shows an actual accomplishment in horsemanship. Absolute trust cannot be forced with violence or punishments - this is the result of ethical training and bonding and respect.
I could do anything with my horse, to my horse - he was calm no matter what. You could start a chainsaw while riding him and he wouldn’t care. He was a Bashkirs Curley horse - so smart, so gentle, so wonderful. I miss him so much.
I am spell bound! I have been raised around horses since I was 3 yrs old. I would have called you a liar, had I not seen this with my eyes. A mare to boot!!! I love horses with all my heart and soul and seeing this performance on 08/22/2021, is the greatest birthday present in of all of 69 years, as of today. That was magnificent! Bravo!
This really touches me. I'm practicing things like the join-up with my horse often and I do know he trusts me, but in a situation like this he still would be scared I guess. Amazing, wonderful! That's how all riders should think and act like.
It's a simple matter of practice. The amount of work and time that must have gone into desensitizing the horse is impressive, but the fact that it's possible is a no brainer. Horses have traditionally been used in all kinds of scary environments (war, mines, etc). Their brains are able to learn that some scary-seeming sensations are in fact non-dangerous.
When a horse CHOOSES to "join up" with a human its the greatest experience ever!! I've been blessed to have two other former owners (owners=horses) that chose me as their human.
Anyone who’s been around horses knows how incredible this is. It’s hard to imagine such a big animal, being scared of everything..but they literally spook at a leaf.
I was practically holding my breath. Esmeralda is so elegant and composed. The connection between horse and rider is almost ethereal, two spirits floating through time and space.
U can tell she has so much more trust when he is on her back horses read nerves better that way she relied on him more when he was upon her but this whole thing is amazing!
Not more trust... Per say, more like she was a lot calmer reading him from her back rather than when he was on the ground. When she was trotting beside him, she became slightly faster than him, and her ears were constantly flicking back and forth, checking her rider for his reaction too. Whereas while they were riding, she was slightly more determined and always forward. But that's just what I got from it.
Hi Will,I hope you get to read this comment. I watch this video almost weekly. It brings tears to my eyes as I am so inspired by the connection you have with Esmeralda. Or, maybe it is because I have a mare who looks so similar to yours and I yearn for the same connection with her. Thank you for posting this and keep the fine work coming. I will continue to chase you and hopefully, someday, my horse will follow and trust me as Esmeralda does with you.
The fact she ate a treat is probably the biggest flex. Horses won't eat if they are really stressed and most horses find tarps to be one of the most stressful, horse eating things they can thing of.
My trainer used to have a stud horse that was unflappable like that; an early hoof injury caused him to see people as friends who eased his pain, fed, and brushed him long before he was put under a saddle. And my own wonderful gelding used to follow at my elbow instead of ground tying when I dropped his reins. If the reins got in his way, he'd pick the slack up and carry them. It took a lot of hours in the saddle and on the ground for that to happen, so I'm really impressed with this display!
I´m in tears! Why don´t we see more riders and horses like these two?! A horse at this age with so much trust and selfconfidence at the same time speaks for itsself and the people taking care. Chapeau! And thank you for letting me enjoy this.
I don’t know a thing about this and have never saw anything like it before but I am mesmerised at that gorgeous horse following her person at first I thought he had some type of noose round her when he was running then I noticed that she’s completely free from him but staying by his side!? I’m gobsmacked 😶 Omg and then she bows at the end 😭😭😭 how wonderful
i was wondering what was so difficult because i don't know horses and saw this randomly... up until i understood with the comments! The fact this looks so "easy" i guess really shows how well the two responded to each other and i super love that! Had no idea this was actually stressful to horses because they look sho chill together LOVE LOVE LOVE. this made me smile
Yes it really is something to be envious of x to love horses this would be my dream, to have such a relationship with these beautiful creatures. Wow God did well
Now THAT's what you call desensitazation training successfully completed! How nice it would be if this was the standard for all horses. If only all horses and riders in sports had this level of trust, it'd make watching competitions much less heartbreaking at times and wholesome even.
One of the most beautiful horses I’ve ever seen, gorgeous head and coat. Her bond with her handler is fantastic, this kind of relationship can’t be forced with harsh bits and tie-downs and draw reins, it takes time and genuine love from the rider to horse not just using the horse to win in sport like so many riders do. Bravo to this rider for actually respecting his horse and training her humanely

Oh gosh, I’m most crying over this! This is the kind of horsemanship and relationship between horse and rider that needs to be used in Olympic games.
Why not all training, ,just remember she is special, ,not all will be like this,,,just like people. ..
Right horse..patince and training..i could do with my mare tho i rode western
These two are amazing! My eyes are a bit moist too
@Morgan Conley yes..today..i dont find in the horse world the bond of trust you see between these two. But sometimes see it in the kid and horse everyday life. Sadly..too many horses are trained..than handed to rider/owner and no deep bondwas built.
omg exactly!! when that sheet flutters down on top of them it took my breath away and totally made me tear up♥
I wish this would be the kind of people to be represented in Olympic shows and such. That's amazing and this needs to be appreciated more
That's what I thought! But I'm afraid, at the Olympices the commitee would push IT too far either...
Amen!
They do.

That's what a proper horsemanship is all about!
My horse would need therapy after this. Lol.
ears turned back tell you the horse is focusing on the rider. Not a bad sign. Pinned down, a bad sign.
WELL SAID !!
Asd du
Most horses freak out at a small tarp. Esmeralda is just like, "what tarp?"
It's not because Esmeralda is special, it's because she got good training. Your horse can be like Esmeralda too if you invest some time into training him/her!
This isn’t the first time she’s seen the BG mean tarp. She’s had plenty of “bomb proofing” as any well trained horse should. She’s a beauty.
You don't start training a horse from 4 years old- that is the age they can be ridden. Before that age; other skills will be taught; accepting a mouthing bit, being led,tied up, grooming exposure to 'spooky' items like tarps are done long before a saddle goes anywhere near that horse's back.

@@hezmydaddyo2722 exactly. It's called desensitizing. From a small tarp to a big tarp .

This is just how close every animal owner should be to their animal. Know them so well that you don't need anything but your voice to handle them.

That is a superb mare with a superb trainer…did you see her mouthing when he laid her down?! Completely relaxed…complete trust!
She was eating treats from the bucket.
@@kaydavis6752 okay and? Doesn’t erase the trust and bond these two have

The special bonds always stick with us. Sorry for your loss but I'm also happy you were blessed like that!
She's like "I wonder whats the point of this, why does he want me to do this?" but follows like a puppy ❤️
My puppy doesn't follow me like that !
So beautiful, I wish all horses could feel like that.
I wish it to.

Absolutely.
Totally Trusting So Much Love It Makes Me Tear Up With Joy For This Amazing Team Of Bonding Awesome I'm Gobsmacked With Smiles 🐴❤️😚💃🐂🧡🐻🏇🧡🎭🎊
It takes time, plus they have practiced, so do not be discouraged.
It's a simple matter of practice. The amount of work and time that must have gone into desensitizing the horse is impressive, but the fact that it's possible is a no brainer. Horses have traditionally been used in all kinds of scary environments (war, mines, etc). Their brains are able to learn that some scary-seeming sensations are in fact non-dangerous.
Of course the horse was trained for this. It's not the 1st time she's seen a tarp...😹
This horse together with this man just made my life. Greatest respect. I am lost for words.
I can't believe this horse was only 4yrs old when this was made!
When a horse CHOOSES to "join up" with a human its the greatest experience ever!! I've been blessed to have two other former owners (owners=horses) that chose me as their human.
This made me tear up! Horse-human relationships ought to be built on a foundation of love and trust, as we see here. Well done!
I didn’t expect it but it gave me goose bumps . A true horse master.
He has to feel blessed every day to have such a bond with that magnificent girl.
Anyone who’s been around horses knows how incredible this is.
It’s hard to imagine such a big animal, being scared of everything..but they literally spook at a leaf.
So lovely to see the love between horse and rider instead of punching, whipping and spurs
He has both whip and spurs. He uses them correctly. The fact that some don't, dosen't make these tools less useful.
So crazy, that's a rare horse and a rare bond, absolutely incredible!
wooow.... THIS should be in the Olympics!!
Omg the goosebumps!!! She never flinches, never missed a step.... That's the way horses should be ridden. 💯💕💖 COMPLETE TRUST
I was practically holding my breath. Esmeralda is so elegant and composed. The connection between horse and rider is almost ethereal, two spirits floating through time and space.
Amazing trust and love.. Beautiful to watch.
Not many horses could do that without spooking badly and freaking out. Such trust she has in him to keep her safe. Gorgeous animal.
I love the comunicazione and the respect they have each other.... Beautiful
Absolutely amazing 💕

This brought back many memories of two of my past horses. I lived that trust, the bond the friendship between my horses and me. You two look wonderful

An incredibly beautiful horse. Esmarelda .... stunning, faithful and loyal 💚💛💚💛💚💛💚
I knew a horse who would spook when leaves blew into his stall in the autumn. The trust this pair have for each other is amazing !!
I love stuff like this. Just beautiful. I love the music too. She's a beautiful horse.
She would follow you ower the rainbow.... so beautifull this deep confidence❤️❤️❤️
I kept watching her ears...she was so at ease and completely trusted in every way. An incredible relationship.
This is a beautiful relationship and trust between man and horse. I am in floods of tears.
Real horsemanship! My heart is melting.
Awe.. wow this horse & her human make an amazing team!! The horse is absolutely beautiful. ❣
"don't mind me just taking my Beautiful fucking horse for a glorious walk "
Brings tears to my eyes the bond here is one create through understanding not fear.
Such beautiful unity , utmost trust !
Wow, it brought tears to my eyes this performance was sooo special. What trust and love. Beautiful, just beautiful ❤.
Beautiful. Total bond and this takes time. Lots and lots of time. Just goes to show we don’t need those bridles.
Beautiful mare. The trust she shows her rider is amazing. Such a talented horse at only 4 years old. Wonder what they have done since then.
wonderful demonstration, and a very very beautiful horse
So beautiful. Love that horse and handler.
God bless.

This is how all horses should be brought up absolute pleasure to watch
Almost 400 people who DON'T KNOW how IMPRESSIVE this is....almost a impossible achievement! Chapeau from the Netherlands.
Wow! The amount of trust and love between them is incredible! No words can describe this fully.
And this is why I love working with mares! They give you a certain loyalty that you don't get from geldings and stallions.
Horse relationship goals ❤️
Mr Will Rogers looks so reliable, calm and faithful. I would gladly took Esmeralda's place at his side to walk through life:-))). Just adorable.
Just... Lovely...
What a lovely mare! Beautiful in both form and attitude.
Can you imagine what she might someday teach either younger riders, or her own babies? ❤
This is amazing the trust is amazing and that horse is pwetty
That horse has the kindest eyes I’ve ever seen. This was wonderful!
Not one eyelid batted. That is true faith in your partner to keep you safe, no matter what
Very beautiful and emotional to watch. What a stunning horse too. X
Dieses Paar darf man niemals trennen. Mir kommen die Tränen. Möge dieses vertrauensvolle Stute niemals enttäuscht werden 🙏🏼
I´m in tears! Why don´t we see more riders and horses like these two?! A horse at this age with so much trust and selfconfidence at the same time speaks for itsself and the people taking care. Chapeau! And thank you for letting me enjoy this.
What kind of riders are you seeing?
@@sarahhughes732 I see riders that learn to read their horses and try to speak their language, instead forcing them into total submission
Wow thats amazing I wish everyone would do the same thing with his horse because it is a bautifull way to come in a harmony with you and your horse
I think most people bond with their horse if they are successful at all
We need more people like this, pure horseman ship! Just love it! 🥰
We have millions of amazing people in the world. We need more people who actually bother to see it
This is the person the Olympics need with his horse. There is trust beyond trust last lovely human being, lovely horse!

Omg and then she bows at the end 😭😭😭 how wonderful
Absolutely breathtaking 😍 ❤
The trust this mare had with Will was just so natural and pure...calm.
That's just beautiful Only love can do that Trust doesn't come with training Comes with love
THIS is what deserves respect!!!
Yes & amen
i was wondering what was so difficult because i don't know horses and saw this randomly... up until i understood with the comments! The fact this looks so "easy" i guess really shows how well the two responded to each other and i super love that! Had no idea this was actually stressful to horses because they look sho chill together LOVE LOVE LOVE. this made me smile
This mare is stunning!
Now why did watching that make me emotional? Love you horse and the kindness of the man.
What a beautiful demonstration of love and trust, congratulations
Yes it really is something to be envious of x to love horses this would be my dream, to have such a relationship with these beautiful creatures. Wow God did well
What an exceptional relationship between rider and a very young mare! Amazing
Now THAT's what you call desensitazation training successfully completed!
How nice it would be if this was the standard for all horses. If only all horses and riders in sports had this level of trust, it'd make watching competitions much less heartbreaking at times and wholesome even.
Esmeralda is not only a great beauty, she is a real honey!!! Love her!!!❤
Nothing short of true horsemanship, just spectacular 🐴

I actually teared up watching this. His relationship with that magnificent animal is really a beautiful thing.
Me too, truly beautiful, you could feel the tangible relationship between them.
OMG That has to be THE most incredible, beautiful, trust I have ever seen in my life, writing this and crying at the same time.
Esmeralda is so safe and contend...... she is chewing and licking throughout the while thing.....amazing 🙌🏼👏🏼❤️
Horses have innate curiosity and bravery. Tap into that and you can do anything. Bravo!
I admire the patience and passion from everyone involved
...this is beautiful
Beautiful, incredible mare! Well done, she shows not an ounce of fear. What had become of her?
The most amazing and astounding thing I have ever seen. Man and horse. Just beyond spectacular! The trust is more then earthly! 🤗❤️
Absolutely magnificent. So heartwarming. Tears of wonder.
So truely
beautiful 🍃❤️🍃
God designed gorgeous creation! The love and trust between the handler and Esmeralda was spectacular. Her movement was as if she was walking on air!
Training, discipline, trust and beauty...... not to mention tears in my eyes
Wow and wow. A beautiful partnership:)
She is the most beautiful horse I've ever seen.... I'm very partial to grays❤️. Wonderful relationship between horse and human
That is a perfect example of "love" Thank you for sharing 😊🇨🇦
Total trust between horse and rider. Beautifully ridden and just shows if u gain a horses trust he will give u his heart.
Oh that’s beautiful! Total trust and connection of two good friends!
