Is there somewhere to watch the first video?
I make a point of saying this is dangerous and no one should attempt this at home, but.... I have a horse who rears when anxious. He came to me with these issues and that is why he's still with me, and will be with me until the end. With that said, I have found success by assigning a command to his rearing. He is, thankfully, very clever and picked up on this pretty quickly. (It should also be said that he has both self preservation and fitness, and does not rear high enough to fall over himself.) Now, because I can ask him to rear and it has become a chore, he doesn't offer to rear anymore. Your training technique, where you "help them go up," is spot on. Making it a less comfortable chore, instead of an escape from pressure, does wonders to discourage the behavior. Well done.
We adopted a 2 year old dog 10 years ago. She didnt know anything, however, she is smart! So she quickly learned sit, stay, come, and lay down, but she was a jumper, and barked alot. So we did the same thing. Taught her that jumping was a 'hug,' and after the hug, was 'done.'
So we could ask for a hug, and she learned that she needed to ask, and that we could say yes or no. My husband coming home from work, great time for a hug- AFTER he came in, put down his stuff, and was asking for one. But 'Can I hug our friends 3 year old?' No, you cant, kids dont get hugs. Same with barking. Taught her 'speak' and 'whisper' and 'shhh.' Now she speaks and whispers whenever asked, but will shhh when we ask. I didnt want say she was never allowed to bark or jump/hug ever again, but that there are appropriate and INappropriate times.
I know a dog is not a horse, and that the circumstance is not the same, but I guess I was just testifying that sometimes, assigning a command allows for controll of it.
Sorry- I'll go back to my seat at the peanut gallery.
I never had much luck with asking my horse to passage when he was jigging in anxiety. Arabians don't just figure out that it's easier to stop jigging/passaging.
I did the same with a mare I had when I was 14, but I did it from the saddle. Made her rear until she was sick of it and she never did it on her own again. It only took about a week, 15 minutes or so at a time, then we’d go enjoy a nice long trail ride. Reverse psychology of sorts yah?
this is commonly used in dog training, if you put a command to an unwanted behavior; they see it as a trick and will only start to do it for a reward.
That's really interesting@@joannaashford7895
The ears flattening and pricking while you were doing that rhythmic 'ask' for him to drop his head was adorable lol
His cute little ears flopping with rhythmic pressure 💗
What a stunning, beautiful horse.❤
enjoyed that, the horse understood what was wanted and looked to be calm.
I'm new to horses and always love to learn new things about them. Thank you! This horse is areal beauty, so glad you can help him relax and be a reliable horse!
I like this, I live in NZ and have a massive grey mare who has started rearing..makes sense with the head down..when their head is low so is the adrenalin..
I needed this! My horse has a massive rear on the ground and i dont know why but now i have ways to get him more relaxed. We are goong to work on this for sure
I love his name! When I was a little girl we had a husky/malamute named Huckleberry Finn, Huck for short😁
I swear you have my mares twin they look the same and act the same. Glad I watched this video and I will continue to watch your videos.
Relaxation through head and neck.
I found it so funny, hwn he was waving the stick up and down above the horse's head to make him lover it, and instead Huck just moved his ears up and down in the same rythm
Brilliant
Nice Ryan. I am now working with Michele Bell and she is helping me with these kinds of exercises. My Morgan use to rear up. He still gets confused but this should help a lot.
Great 👍
Good presentation.
Thanks
I was trying to find Part I of this at the link you mentioned, Ryan, but couldn't.
I like the disengage the rear exercise.
This is a beautiful horse what breed is he
Thank u am getting a horse and need this like ouick ouestion when a horse is rearing on u do u need a tie down or to just turst your horse and fix the promblem
I'm confused. If the horse is rearing, how are you suppose to get close enough to disengage the hind quarters?
You wait the couple seconds until they are on all four hooves again 🙄
You have to disengage the hind quarters before the horse is on two legs. Once it's up there it's too late. You have to see the signs that the horse is about to rear and then disengage before it actually happens. No horse rears without physically preparing their body to rear and that's the signs you have to look for.
I wish i had your help with my horse hes not the beat with the ground work. I was working on it slowly and he was doing better but the person who i bored with showed me how she does it and it felt so wrong and my horse started pulling and stuff when he wasnt before and it just felt so wrong
My Arabian won’t stop prancing and rearing on a trail ride. And when we’re just riding. I don’t have a round pen or arena. He’s down threw me into bushes and has gotten away from me on trail rides rears on me all the time and I’ve tried everything. And I’ve tried to pop him before and he hates it and takes off. Do you have any advise!?
Head down and rhythm the key!
Hi Ryan; back in the 1960’s n 1970’s I knew a Matlock Rose. He was an awesome horse trainer n a great man. I was wondering if you are any relation to him?
Not that I know of
Does this work with dolphins?
No.
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Only for dolphins who rear on their back legs
How long should sessions be for a 18 month colt? I have a colt with a rearing problem and found these tips very useful but I notice he gets more emotional as our session goes on. Should I be stopping for he gets this way or should I work through it until he is calm?
I am no pro but the rule of thumb I have always heard and worked by is that you get one minute of attention each month. 6 month, 6 minutes and so on...
How would you sort the tearing problem when horse chooses to rear when turning out to paddock?
Hindquarters yields, email me a video of the problem if you’d like. Ryan@rosehorsemanship.com
hey I have a horse named Leo, he rears and bucks when I put pressure on his sides and I tried lunging and moving his butt, he also bucks when I canter him and he has fallen with me on his after we were running and he bucked I really don't have the money to sigh up for something like a training program so I don't really know what to do.
How is it going with Leo? Do you have $20 a month?
100 percent pain or anxiety. You need his back checked and scoped for ulcers, most likely pain related
@1woksape it's NEVER the horses' fault. Always the humans fault. Horses are a reflection of what we do to them. Get that horse fixed by a professional. Do not give up on him because it's not his fault
Sounds like he needs a medical check.
I have a quarter pony when I try to lunge her to the left she goes into a mode where she runs full speed past me to the right bulks then rears.I have tried everything but she will not lunge to the left.Any advice?I was ran over by a horse about 7 yrs ago and broke my wrist I am scared when she runs full speed I will end up being run over again.
sarah joseph your fear is reasonable for being scared of being run over again, but that’s your problem. Horses can tell when you are afraid and unconfident and will take advantage of that. If you want to establish respect and stop that horse from running at you, first you have to stand your ground. You can not move backwards when that horse runs at you, then that tells the horse hey I’m in charge of this human and I can do what I want. If anything when that horse charges make it uncomfortable, hit them with the lead rope, do anything but move backwards or stop the training. Use pressure and release. Don’t stop the training until you horse lunges a few circles without acting up. Once they do a good few cicles call them in pet them reward them, even end the training that day. I know this is a lot but this is how I trained a pony I am currently working with, it works! I hope this helps good luck training :)
Try keeping it in smaller circles, it'll help to limit her speed (smaller is harder to gallop). Make sure she listen well to your vocal cues and positioning. Start on her good side, then switch to the left side when you both feel comfortable. It's all pressure-release. Start slow, steady, and when you're ready, expand the circle a little, if she goes full speed, make it smaller. You could then ask her to go faster, by your own command, not because she decided to. With the smaller circle, it'll be a bit difficult for her. Like the guy in the video, he said something along those lines (the horse is about to rear) "Oh you wanna go up? OK but let's go even higher" So he "does" what the horse wants, but with a bit of discomfort, so the horse realises that it's not worth it.
It might have been caused from a bad past experience (poor handling, abuse, etc), does she only do that with you? or everybody?

Tips for a 3 year old racehorse on stall rest? He's explosive reactive and typically goes straight up. Vet says not allowed to move his feet more than a walk. He was a bottle baby. Knows nothing. 17 hands. I just want to stay alive till I can actually teach him. 50 days stall rest left. I don't want to resort to stud chain over gums, but that's what he knows from track and breeder.
Did you ever get an answer? My horse is on stall rest and he is usually a VERY good boy on the ground, stall rest has made him explosive and scary!
@@missdonica2190 no, but it's turning out ok now.
I had to abandon the idea of hand walking and just moved him from one stall to the other for cleaning. I always wore gloves and made sure there was no one in the vicinity.
He's been turned out now for about 4 months and he's turned into a pretty sensible guy.
Hello guapo 🇺🇲🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇺🇲🇪🇦🇺🇲🇪🇦🇺🇲🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🐴❤️🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴💃💃💃💃💃
I didn't watch this, but it came through as a suggested video. I'm not being a jerk, but the title caught my eye. Fix? As in broken? I'm a whisperer, and I have had to heal many that had previously been fixed. I will put in a good faith effort to watch some of your videos, and be open minded. I also ask you to do the same, and consider Monty Roberts style technique, simply because I associate the word fixed with pressure on pressure off techniques, and that is usually a form of convince them to be less miserable for cooperating.
most of this is "monty roberts" style lol
Maybe you should watch it then!
@@casdragon_5939 not really
@@lindsayCswain not very long.
Building trust and relationship, breaking the questions up into very tiny steps and not going along with it and getting emotional about it.
They’re just standing still on two legs and they’re communicating to you that you asked too much or asked at the wrong time and you need to review your basics.
What you are still not mentioning is the annoying giant mirror in that shed. Every horse you handle , and try to correct , notice their reflection in the mirror. Of course it un settles and distracts them. 🙄👎😒
That’s the point. If they’re distracted then that means they aren’t paying attention to you. it’s kinda a tattletale tactic 😉
lol he's super cute, too bad he's kind of a snot
He’s not being “kind of a snot”. He’s just being a horse.
Horse behaviour, wether good or bad, is a direct result of the environment and treatment that humans have exposed them to.
It’s never the horses fault. It’s always the humans fault.
@@RoyalMetal9 ok, did I fuckin ask?
@@katec708 no bb- but we didn't ask wether you thought he's a snot or not, did we?
@@ellapurdayeq right right, but you didn’t have to read my comment nor reply to it lmfao. I’m just stating facts anyways, y’all can be pressed all you want.
Yikes.
