THANK YOU for making these videos so i dont have to. I was just out of town and had a client frustrated because she could not catch her horse. I sent her your video which is everything I would do and got her started! I recommend you to my beginner students all the time.
❤ Very helpful tips clearly explained! ❤ Here is my summary of what you just explained…. 1) How to approach them. . . . . 00:33 Your body language makes a huge difference! . . . . 00:45 Have your halter ready . . . . 00:57 Walk with confidence and calm like a herd leader, rather than with stealth like a predator. Keep images in your mind of you and the horse cooperating together nicely. . . . . 01:53 Approach them from on or the ither side, not their blind spots, rear and directly in front. . . . . 02:10 Talk with them to help them be aware that you are coming towards them. . . . . 02:18 Loop the lead line around their neck first thing and hold that loop, then put the halter on. What to do if your horse runs away from you: . . . . 02:40 Use your body postures and position to speak to the horse… start in the round pen to help you learn. . . . . 03:17 Cut the horse’s place to go off by always keeping in front of their eye line or shoulder… it can be from quite a distance (watch Klaus Hempfling doing this!) . . . . 04:10 You always want to be keeping yourself safe, so always stand to the side a bit, don’t try to stop them by getting directly in front of them. . . . . 04:47 Show a horse that keeps wanting to run away from you, that it isn’t worth their while to do so, that they will have to keep running around until they decide to cooperate, because you persevere until they stand still. (Watch Steve Young use pressure… walking toward them etc and release the moment they do what he is asking them to do by backing off and taking his focus off them, from which they then understand what is being asked of them) . . . . 05:29 They will learn that running away (or whatever you don’t want them to do) is more work for them than standing still (or whatever you are trying to get them to understand you want from them. (Again, watch Klaus and Steve do this over and over again in all sorts of situations by making the horse move until it cooperates, just like a herd leader would do). How to get your horse to WANT to come to you: . . . . 06:00 Horses anticipate routines, so if you vary that routine enough, they will be more agreeable. After you catch them do each of the following at different times and then let them go again: rub them down a little, walk them around a little, go on a trail ride, lunge them, ride them, or just spend a little time being with them, to show them that it’s not all just the same old boring work when you come to them. I have learned a ton from the following people’s videos: Klaus Hempfling, Steve Young, and even Rick from Talk Like a Horse (if you can ignore his antipathy for humans, his observations are keen and help explain what Steve, Klaus, and Equine Helper are teaching.
This is awesomeeee. I watched the first five seconds of your video and gave up on trying to make a random horse come to me. Then, I realized that I had to watch the whole video to actually know how to do it right. But, hey, still good :)
Tucker is simply adorable. You can also tell he is his is very intellient and happy. I look forward to seeing many more clips with him in it. Great job on your teaching.
This is one of the best video i,ve seen come from a young girl no sweets or treat the horse trust her. he know she will not put him in any danger and she walk away from the horse this the right way to start with the horse by walking away then walk back to the horse a stroke better then a sweet or treat Great Video thank you thump up from me
I had a horse that always run away, no matter what i did, but i figured out, when i just ignore it and walk around hin (not directly to him) he felt save until i got to him 💪🏼
I like how she was Very aware of Tucker approaching her at time lapse 3:30. She was extremely aware of and watching Tucker fast approaching her. An untrained person would not have been so keen and more than likely been hurt by a sudden reaction to finding their horse in their space unbeknownst to them. She's a very very good horse owner.
Your channel is like my bible. I’ve just got my 1st horse in 30+ years 3 weeks ago and am a complete beginner again. I have a 15 month old gypsy vanner filly with stifle problems. She comes to me as I cheated and never came out without a carrot and even tho I make it a point now to come out empty handed half the times, I don’t think she will take the risk and not come to me lol. I am really confused on how to get her to stop being so pushy when I prepare her food as she barrels into the feed shed stamping her front feet trying to get it. I don’t know how to get her to learn personal space. She’s 300kg of hungry lol I’m 4ft 10 and weigh 50kg so my unicorn needs to learn some manners. Any tips welcome!
Soooo good girl ! Do you ever talk about like diseases in horses and stuff ?? I have a horse that I think might have something .. I’d love to see videos on how to care for horses for some kind of thing
Thanks guys . Yeah I had someone come look at her. I jumped to conclusions.. it’s just time to cut her nails 🤦🏻♀️. Still learning here. It’s happening today . Just sucks because they have to sedate her because it freaks her out .
@@elizabethalcala2516 if getting her hooves done freaks her out that badly I would work with her on lifting her feet. My newer rescue horse doesn’t like getting her back legs picked up and the farrier came out today to do her hooves and because I’d worked with her on picking up her back legs she acted a lot better. She’s still not perfect with it but it takes time and patience but trying to pick up her feet for a few minutes everyday makes a lot of progress.
@@paigek9923 oh girl . I’ve done work but they still sedated her. This guy has always done them . I think I’ll try someone else because it may just be the guy.. he was prob too harsh w her before. I do regularly pick and touch her feet. She lets me but she doesn’t like the guy who does she hooves
My 7 yr old mare mustang sees me coming and comes right to me. Or i xan walk up to her at any time. She is just a great horse. Only had her for a month. I spend a lot of time with her.
I understand from other horse trainers, that horses interpret hand treats as submission with food and therefor can believe they are becoming the leader, the dominant one.
Lots of good tips here. Especially coming up to them just to chill out and pet them. Did he stealth charge you while your back was turned at the beginning? It was like he was wondering why you were standing there talking in the middle of the ring, he approached, gave that little head shake, which I recognize all to well, and then veered off hoping you wouldn't notice. I don't interpret that as being aggressive, necessarily, just a tad independent.
Haha no, but I see why you would think that! I was lunging him right before we started filming, so the part you see is where I had turned and signaled him to come in.
I would need some help. I have bought a horse recently, he starts to know me. When i approach him he come straight to me (thinking I will probably feed him). When I try to put the halter on he starts to turn his back, ears back and walk away. This horse had an habit of kicking so I'm careful. I don't know if it's a bluff.. Maybe he just trieds to avoid working and send me a warning. Hoping I will be discouraged and leave him alone. After 3 minutes usually I catch him. But sometimes I have to gime him a treat so I can put the halter on without him running away. I have tried spending time with him, taking him to eat grass and not straight wto work and so on. Once I've caught him everything is smooth, he's a nice horse. But it's bothering me a bit ^^'
That helped because I could catch him without him going to his safe spot well he doesn’t always go there he lets me catch him sometimes and then I patted him for awhile let him go and he followed me to the gate and he never follows me he always runs away when I let him go and I hardly ride him, he’s been off of riding for 4 or 5 weeks or less but that’s because someone put his halter on that wasn’t me and make it tight so it hurt under his mouth behind it and then on his right side of his nose, I’ve been trying to make it heal, and it has. He also has a problem when I’m riding he wants to stay with my mare red and I have no idea why but it only happens when he see’s her, but I feel like that’s because they have an amazing bond, and I know it’s not my riding because my auntie trained me and she also trains her daughter and her daughter aka my cousin goes to shows and gets ribbons and wins but not all the time she wins. ALSO NO IM NOT BLAMING MY HORSE ON ANYTHING all I’m saying is, that he loves to stay with my mare because when she’s not around or he can’t see her, he behaves very well and no it’s not like he doesn’t behave well when he canters to her when I’m on and rears up to go to her with me on which I have trained him not to rear up with me on so that’s fine but when he’s with her when I’m riding he won’t move, that’s all my saying I would never blame my horse for anything unless it was being stupid and hurt it self on purpose and all.
My horse goes through phases of either standing to be caught or running off, which is a problem because we sometimes have beginners, who haven't yet learned about using their body language to make the horse stop (or at least turn), go out and catch her. She's currently in a "running off" phase, and this gave me some ideas of things to try. Thankfully, we almost always bring them down from the pasture into the corral before we go to actually catch them, so she rarely has an entire pasture she can run off into, but it sure gets annoying sometimes when she tries to move such that she keeps her friends between her and me to avoid getting caught. At least she doesn't carry on for as long as some of the other horses, though - I've sometimes spent 20 minutes (and sometimes needed a second person) catching some of the other horses because they just won't stop, or they'll let me get almost up to them (after I got them to stop on the fence), and then right before I get the rope around their necks, they'll turn and take off again. We've got a chute of sorts set up along one side of the corral with a gate at the bottom that we can close, so if they try to take off up to the top of the corral to get away and come down the chute (thinking that we'll have to go all the way around the end of the chute fence to get them and that they can just run out the bottom again), they get stuck at the end - while it's never the first choice to go with a last resort, there are a couple horses there for which playing hard-to-get is entirely a game and has absolutely nothing to do with the people going out to catch them, so at least it teaches them each time that we will in fact catch them eventually every time, and means we don't need a second person.
I have done a ton of riding i am not a beginner i am not wanting one off of whim and i know they are not like hamsters i have had horses before i just dont remember where I bought them
Mine is super pushy, won't let me put the halter on. He rears or pushs my body with his head and I land on the ground. And walks away he wants play all the time. He has prior training because he's an off the track Thoroughbred and he hasn't been touched in almost two years because of a leg injury two years ago but he is fully recovered now.
If you make him walk in a circle every time he even shows a sign of wanting to push, he will stop that habit. The best example I have seen of dealing with this situation, and it is a lot our human body language that we don’t realize is creating these habits, is Steve Young working with people and their horses when they have issues of all kinds, including pushing. He calls it “unrequested forward movement”.
You NEED to watch Steve Young. He works with tons of horses that are pushy on the ground. Pretty sure quite a few had the same issue as your Ottb. His methods are gentle, conservative, and easy to understand.
You want to make yourself big and try not to flinch away from the bites and kicks, which I know is easier said than done. Stand your ground and speak calmly until the horse tealizes that nonsense isn't working. The whole idea is to behave like you're the higher horse in the herd, where dominance is dhown by who can make whom move first. Making them move first isn't such a bad idea, short of chasing them off.
@@rhfarmstables Pressure release… make them move in a circle until they disengage their hind quarters, then release for a moment, and keep doing this. Look at Steve Young’s videos for specific help in this is my best advice.
My mare Bailey is TERRIBLE about being caught!! It drives me insane! Ugh, I get so mad. As soon as she sees me, she turns and runs off. I hope this helps..
@@emmaoconnell6168 Try watching Klaus Hempfling and Steve Young’s videos for this. I think you will see a world of difference. Also pay attention to your body language and your thoughts… horses perceive both.
Hey Carmella, I found a video on TH-cam dissing horse riding saying it’s bad/abusive/horses need to be wild etc. this person used your footage in his video and I just thought you should know. Here is the video link. th-cam.com/video/sKu8PXCVE4Y/w-d-xo.html your footage shows up at 1:07.
Show is a horse in the works, your s is already trained,I can go up to moment as soon as he sees therope he runs, new horse to meso don't know his issues yet.
Nice of you to explain but the better example would be show us a tough horse to catch to develop your system. Heck, can't anyone walk up and catch an Appy!? Hahaha. They say the reason the New Perce Indian developed the Appy was in a herd of WILD Horses they were the ONE that would let you walk up and catch! they LIKE humans!
I think they must have understood horse language like the following people who I admire for their shifting ways of being with horses: Monty Roberts Buck Branneman Tom Dorrence Ray Hunt Pat Tucket Klaus Hempfling Steve Young If you watch all of them, you get a real sense of what that language is and how it works.
He is an Appaloosa, obviously the most brainy and beautiful horses on the planet. It's obvious she's up to his standards because if you fail the tests, they blow you off.
Just show it a carrot. Works every time. Also, bonding with your animals is also a good idea. Horses know the owner and usually come without calling. If not, carrot.
Just teach your horse come. Also horses remember trauma. If your horse doesn't want to work and you don't listen they will start running away to avoid you due to pain or distrust.

Two days ago I took my horse from the field to the shed without anything. I do a lot of r+ and it really shows! He is the best
Horses are social creatures very inquisitive ignore them. They will come up to you. Easy.
Go to another horse. The one you want will come up to you because they’re social creatures.
This is one of the best video i,ve seen come from a young girl no sweets or treat the horse trust her. he know she will not put him in any danger and she walk away from the horse this the right way to start with the horse by walking away then walk back to the horse a stroke better then a sweet or treat Great Video thank you thump up from me
So helpful to have you helping us out. We love ❤️ horses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐴🐴🐴🫎🐎🐎🐎🐴🐴🐴🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐎🐎🐎
Very enjoyable presentation
I really enjoy your videos. I just happened to come across your videos the other day I learn a lot. you sound quit knowledgeable about horses
Love your wisdom at such a young age
im a novice rider - i learn so much watching your videos. thanks
This was so helpful! Thanks for the information!❤️🐴
Love the relationship you have with your cute kid!
Thank you! This taught me a lot! I plan on doing this work today when I go to the barn 💕
Good advice! It works! Interested in tricking your horse to want to come to you.
I had a horse that always run away, no matter what i did, but i figured out, when i just ignore it and walk around hin (not directly to him) he felt save until i got to him 💪🏼
What a great video, tried it on a random horse by a park and failed. BUT STILL GOOD!
Tucker is sooooo cute!!!! Thank you so much for these really helpful videos, I just got a horse and have A little bit of trouble with some things.
Amazing video,as always!❤️🐎
Thanks so much!!
Tucker is so BEAUTIFUL!!😍😘😘🦄
You always inform and inspire. Thank you.
Your the best you help filor every thing
using body language to move an animal was how I caught my bunnies when they'd run away. it was very helpful
I like how she was Very aware of Tucker approaching her at time lapse 3:30. She was extremely aware of and watching Tucker fast approaching her. An untrained person would not have been so keen and more than likely been hurt by a sudden reaction to finding their horse in their space unbeknownst to them. She's a very very good horse owner.
Great to see you again!
They always here me coming lol. Thanks I enjoyed.
Great information ❤ Thank you!
Thank you. I love your channel. Your great. 👍
This confirmed I am doing the right things when I go to bring him in.

call your vet. absolutely do not wait for this girl on the internet to tell you. that is. that is not being a responsible horse owner.

I have to find the Halloween costume desensitization one! That's awesome
Hi carmella , I like the way , your approach to handsome horse and giving info about....kudos to you from india.
Thank you!
very good advice
4 th love vids huge fan
My 7 yr old mare mustang sees me coming and comes right to me. Or i xan walk up to her at any time. She is just a great horse. Only had her for a month. I spend a lot of time with her.
Love your videos thank you ☺️
This was helpful thank you. How do you feel about bringing a treat with you?
I always do! Works for my rescues
I understand from other horse trainers, that horses interpret hand treats as submission with food and therefor can believe they are becoming the leader, the dominant one.
Lots of good tips here. Especially coming up to them just to chill out and pet them. Did he stealth charge you while your back was turned at the beginning? It was like he was wondering why you were standing there talking in the middle of the ring, he approached, gave that little head shake, which I recognize all to well, and then veered off hoping you wouldn't notice. I don't interpret that as being aggressive, necessarily, just a tad independent.
Haha no, but I see why you would think that! I was lunging him right before we started filming, so the part you see is where I had turned and signaled him to come in.
where is the link to the video on getting your horse to come to you?
I think a demo on a horse that is running away would make for a good example. Even if you di it in stages
2nd! I love you!
Tucker is so so so sos cute ❤️❤️❤️🐴🐎

Well put! It’s like a date night! Keep it rewarding and never forget to appreciate your partnership? Right?
Hello 👋
How long do you think it will take for your horse to not run away anymore?
Thanks for the notes! Though my horse doesn't even walk away from me, my pawpa's horse does. So, I'm gonna try and warm my pawpa's horse up to me!
Look up pressure release too… that is one thing that was missing here, the release piece the moment the horse does what you are asking of it.
Ty so much! Every single time my horse would just run away!
This helped, thank you! I was having trouble with catching one of the lesson horses but this video was so helpful!
My horse goes through phases of either standing to be caught or running off, which is a problem because we sometimes have beginners, who haven't yet learned about using their body language to make the horse stop (or at least turn), go out and catch her.

But how to get a halter on a horse without a round pen?
One pretty thing about you is , you talk with cheeks...🙃🤗🤭 loved it much !
My horse just stands there like tucker when you put his halter on, doesnt walk away but just stands there
Where do you get find your horses i am really thinking about getting one but i cant find one
I have done a ton of riding i am not a beginner i am not wanting one off of whim and i know they are not like hamsters i have had horses before i just dont remember where I bought them
How do I find the trick video link?
We have two shetlands who constantly run away and we can’t catch them. Any thoughts?
Mine is super pushy, won't let me put the halter on. He rears or pushs my body with his head and I land on the ground. And walks away he wants play all the time. He has prior training because he's an off the track Thoroughbred and he hasn't been touched in almost two years because of a leg injury two years ago but he is fully recovered now.

First comment!
I don't know why I'm watcing these videos. I don't even own a horse.
Do you have any tips to try and catch a horse that snaps and kicks at you but does not run away...?
Thats disrespect. Id encourage the horse to move until it stood nicely then +R
@@rhfarmstables Thanks for the tip.
You want to make yourself big and try not to flinch away from the bites and kicks, which I know is easier said than done.

My mare Bailey is TERRIBLE about being caught!! It drives me insane! Ugh, I get so mad. As soon as she sees me, she turns and runs off. I hope this helps..
OMG my boy is the same, he prances around like it's just the best game - infuriating and really hinders the relationship 🤨 Have you had any progress?
@@emmaoconnell6168 Try watching Klaus Hempfling and Steve Young’s videos for this. I think you will see a world of difference. Also pay attention to your body language and your thoughts… horses perceive both.
Hey Carmella, I found a video on TH-cam dissing horse riding saying it’s bad/abusive/horses need to be wild etc. this person used your footage in his video and I just thought you should know. Here is the video link. th-cam.com/video/sKu8PXCVE4Y/w-d-xo.html your footage shows up at 1:07.
👍
Show is a horse in the works, your s is already trained,I can go up to moment as soon as he sees therope he runs, new horse to meso don't know his issues yet.
That horse has the same name as me
Nice of you to explain but the better example would be show us a tough horse to catch to develop your system. Heck, can't anyone walk up and catch an Appy!? Hahaha. They say the reason the New Perce Indian developed the Appy was in a herd of WILD Horses they were the ONE that would let you walk up and catch! they LIKE humans!
I think they must have understood horse language like the following people who I admire for their shifting ways of being with horses:
Monty Roberts
Buck Branneman
Tom Dorrence
Ray Hunt
Pat Tucket
Klaus Hempfling
Steve Young
If you watch all of them, you get a real sense of what that language is and how it works.
@@louisegogel7973 I only watch Gerry Cox videos.. haha
What kind of horse is he?
He is an Appaloosa, obviously the most brainy and beautiful horses on the planet. It's obvious she's up to his standards because if you fail the tests, they blow you off.
If you don't mind can't I have your old boots plz plz
It seems like that hoarse Tucker is part of your training I mean he knows what to do.
Just show it a carrot. Works every time. Also, bonding with your animals is also a good idea. Horses know the owner and usually come without calling. If not, carrot.
I understand that hand feeding can lead a horse to believe you are not strong and they will more likely believe they have to take the dominant role.
Good common sense,---are is it horse sense?
I think you would benefit from a lesson from a vocal coach to help with projection
First mistake walking toward any horse to catch them, you teach them to come whem your call. Anything else is bull.
One step at a time.
what is wrong wit this person they aint lazy ur lazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you give me your old boots plz plz
Just teach your horse come. Also horses remember trauma. If your horse doesn't want to work and you don't listen they will start running away to avoid you due to pain or distrust.
Thank you!
