Thank you. Really liked this video. Never thought about a horse being afraid of the rope due to prior incidents of being hit with the rope. I think, too, this horse feels safe with this trainer and that speaks volumes of good things about the trainer.
thank you! yes, this was a more unique case. This mare was looking for someone to rebuild her confidence. Really nice smart mustang! Enjoyed working with her.
this is exactly my gelding we bought him from auction 2-3 years ago and i have been working with him tieing with rubber bands/hamstrings so if he sat back he wouldn’t be hurt, it’s the same thing with loading and my horse has been eating on the trailer
Great video man, I’m training my first ever horse, the one on my profile picture. She’s a great horse and I’ve developed big trust with her. Me being new to training I am having trouble with her being still while tied. This video showed me what fundamentals I need to know. She needs a lot of work too because she’s head shy as well. Luckily she lets me get a halter on her but she’s skiddish.
Thanks for the video. I have a mustang that had a pulled back and her trainer to “fix”it hard tied her and then flagged by her head and when she would pull back he would spank her to come forward off it. I’ve had her for 4 years and to this day the pull back is in there. I wish I had intervened instead of thinking the trainer knew best.
Thank you for sharing. I am working with a thoroughbred that has same issues. Owner was tired of him breaking halters and leads so she thought it would be ok to tie with hay string.😖 you can guess where this goes from here. Wow. What a mess. Poor horse.
Super good & informative!! Thank you! Just found ur site, looking for help with pulling back & out, when loading into trailer, so this helpful! Will subscribe & watch more! Thanks from Michigan.😊
My dad used to say that in order to train a horse properly, you first have to know more than the horse does. Obviously, her last trainer didn't quite reach that level. I do like her eye; I think she'll be fine.
yes, she did have a few holes in her foundation and some bad experiences, but this mare is amazing and came so far. She and her owner are getting along so well, so yes she is fine, and confident, all is well!
Scott, Are you hard tieing her and letting her figure out she can’t leave? I’ve got a new mare that has this problem. I’ve tried the belly rope and blocker tie ring. She’s learned she can “escape” and flipped over backwards last weekend (cotton lead broke with blocker ring). I’m afraid to hard tie her because I don’t want to hurt her neck. Does tieing higher alleviate this? My hitching posts are low so putting the trailer in the arena is the only other option I have right now. We’re going to mount a “patience pole” in the arena so I have a safe place to work on this. She also had a trailer issue but she’s getting better with that. Definitely clostorphobic
If she is tied to a snubbing post correctly she can't pull, cross ties prevent pulling, once horses start this, it's hard to stop that habit . . . . why on earth would anyone teach a horse to pull back, is far beyond me?
Yes, find a good horseman. Soooo………….not you 😊. This looks more like learned helplessness. This mare hasn’t learned there is nothing to be afraid of, she’s learned there is nothing to do about the scary situation.

That trailer loading would have been great to see!
Wonderful horsemanship and teaching ability. Thank you for sharing this all important skill
Great video, thank you. I'll lookk for your video about how to find a good trainer, that's easier said than done!

Great lesson. Thank you for sharing 🐴.
Excellent video, thank you!

So nice to see sure a patient trainer and so caring, we need more like that. Ty for sharing.
Thank you, horses live in the present and have no sense of time. They will teach us about patience if we let them.

thank you, the foundation is everything and can never be skipped over for the horses sake.
I'm glad she ended up in your hands for "fixing"!

resorting to using hay string is not addressing the real issue, its just putting a band aid on it and hoping it heals
horses know when you dont know...so she s so releived to be with you as you know horses n she can relax around you

Did you practice the tying with her every day for her to get to this point?
What you using on your flys Gasoline? Scott Stokes my hero!
Are you using a blocker tie?
No, never have and never will.
How do you have her tied? I struggle with not hard tying but also not having the rope so loose they can pull back easily.
Well done sir
I need. Your help ASAP
Let me know what you need.
What kind of tie did you use? And also fly spray?

This is a great question…I’d like to know the correct answer too!
How’s it going with your horse now? And what did you decide to do? If I may ask 😊
You didn't explain anything. All I heard was 'You need to find a good horseman.'
Where are you located??
If she is tied to a snubbing post correctly she can't pull, cross ties prevent pulling, once horses start this, it's hard to stop that habit . . . . why on earth would anyone teach a horse to pull back, is far beyond me?
A horse can pull back tied to anything if they can go backwards enough to run out of slack.
Sierra horse halter 😊
You shouldn't tie a horse that has not learned to tie. Think about it.
Yes, find a good horseman. Soooo………….not you 😊. This looks more like learned helplessness. This mare hasn’t learned there is nothing to be afraid of, she’s learned there is nothing to do about the scary situation.
