Don't forget the horse is getting used to a new spoken language too. It takes time to put the new words together with the physical commands he receives. He's a beautiful animal and a smooth mover. Best of luck with him.
Good point! I never would have considered that.
a lot of downward transitions are done with a whistle in Spain... sadly I can't whistle so this is always the first hurdle 😁
Animals respond to the energy and images behind our words more than the words themselves. Try it sometime!
When I say “buen chico” or “muy bien” to my boy he really looks proud of himself. I say good boy as well but still after 3 months he’s still loving the Spanish
@@matt_harnacke You can't whistle at "chicks" on a street or a beach?! LOL! 🤣😂🤣 Ha ha! 😉
It's so great that you really hear what your viewer is saying here! You're not just rushing through the comments to make it look like you are paying attention, but you really ARE paying attention! That's a rare thing on YT!
You and Jesse are both SO genuine and so caring for the horses, and those 2 things are where all of your appeal comes from. I know you must be just as caring about people too. You might expect 2 gorgeous, successful, and very popular young men to become conceited, but you both seem not to be, and that's wonderful!
I love your approach to life and to horses. You two are obviously different in many ways, but you are similar in the most important ways, regarding the health, happiness, and wellbeing of the horses. Please never change! You are among the people from whom I learn the most. Lots of love to you both from Canada!

We love a man who advocates for therapy ❤
I appreciate your openness and willingness to share the fact that you go to therapy. Brain health is important so an individual can cope with everyday stress, can work productively, and can be a contributing member of their community. Reaching out is not a sign of weakness, but a significant step toward the path of self-care.
Thanks for the update on Buri’s progress. He is such a beautiful horse.
Exactly! It's a sign of wisdom and strength. Absolutely everyone can benefit from a good therapist. It's a pity that good ones can be hard to find. But it's well worth being persistent, because finding a good one eventually is better than finding a pot of gold, or winning the lottery! At one point my therapist may have even saved my life. I was so lucky to have her!
I was even luckier that the costs were paid by my employer. Those costs are prohibitively expensive for most people, because government health programs and private insurance often don't cover it. But there are a lot of employers in Canada that do cover some or all of it, at least up to a certain point.
The stuff below is for everyone, no matter where they work, and is just a guideline on how to find out about what your employer provides, because it could be much more than what you think, or what your supervisor and coworkers think. I included some info about my experience just to illustrate that point. Anyone who doesn't care should feel free to skip the rest of my post.
People need to phone their employer's Human Resources Department and ask them about what is offered and how much is covered by the employer. I was so surprised that my workplace, or the plan they provide, covers so many different things! Way more than just dentists and eye glasses!
Don't assume that the website of the employer covers everything you can get. Nearly all websites are incomplete and badly designed. Talk to a REAL PERSON, no matter how tech savvy you may be! And read any website or printed material first. Take notes on what questions you need to ask, and make note of the answers that person gives you too. Also use a highlighter pen and a regular pen on any printed material. I do like to have a hard copy in addition to any website, because I can highlight it and write my notes right on it in the relevant spots.
I work for the Edmonton Public School Board, and my partner works at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology, or NAIT. Even though they are different employers, both of them give us coverage, and we can combine the 2 coverages, meaning we pay nothing. Zero dollars for anything.
My Edmonton School Board coverage is managed by the Alberta School Employees Benefit Plan, or ASEBP. It includes Alberta Blue Cross benefits, but it may also include other things too, and it covers so much more than people would imagine! But it's SO VERY confusing that the website is useless at explaining it. A person needs to phone them and speak with a Benefits Specialist.
The use of the eye glasses or dental coverage does not reduce the amount of money I can put towards psychological services. And as far as I know, physical therapy does not reduce it either. As far as I know, they are all seperate pots of money. Do NOT forget that if your partner or spouse has a plan, even with a different employer, they can possibly be combined, DRASTICALLY REDUCING your costs. Again, research it first by reading all the info you can get, make notes for yourself, then be sure to phone them and talk to a REAL PERSON in the Human Resources Department. That is usually a Benefits Specialist who knows every detail of the plans available to you.
There is likely so much more money and services available than you had realized. And sometimes dollars (or whatever) can even be carried forward to the next year if you didn't use them all. If the person you talk to is unable to ansewr all of your questions and explain things in a way that you understand, then you need to speak to somebody else there. Don't settle for an incomplete explanation.
These things are your right. You earned them. In fact you are probably paying for them through deductions from your paychecks. So they are yours, and nobody has the right to try to act like a gatekeeper, and prevent you from accessing them. It's their job to help you. You don't need to apologize to anyone for taking advantage of what is rightfully yours.
If you think you might benefit from therapy, take it. Do it. If the first therapist isn't helpful, ask for a different one. Don't waste your number of covered visits on a therapist who isn't helpful. Insist on a different one. Do you prefer the same gender as yourself, or the opposite gender? Say so. This is supposed to help you, and it will, even if it takes a bit of work at first to find the right fit.
If you need help in any way, do reach out to your employers HR Dept and ask for it. They must provide it, and it must be confidential. You can tell your coworkers you went for financial planning. Nobody needs to know about it.
Good luck to all!

I cant explain why but I think this is your best voice over yet, comforting and interesting. Also your riding lovely as always.
I appreciate your feedback, I never know if I should just put music on or if you guys actually want to hear me talk 😅
@@matt_harnackeI love it when you talk. I can understand better what is going on.
I have to agree. This one just really flowed well.
@@matt_harnacke I love your videos because you explain what you are doing and why. I know nothing about horses, so I do enjoy learning about them. You take such good care of your horses. Your videos are a pleasure to watch.
You have a really good voice for narrating. I love to listen to you and to Jesse too. And as a side note, you look super in your glasses.
Love watching 2 people who care passionately about their horses and their welfare being the main priority. Thank you Matt and Jesse for being good role models to all those young kids who want to get into horse ownership.
I’m 86, have never been around horses, etc. but watching these two young men and the knowledge they have is fascinating. Thank you. You may visit any time in U.S.A.
Thank you for bringing attention to the importance of caring for one’s mental health! Knowing that even people who seem to live a charmed life, such as yourself, can benefit so much from therapy has a big impact on reducing stigma for others. Also, understanding and being able to work with our emotions is so important as equestrians, because our horses reflect everything back to us for good or bad.
Well said !
🙌❤
He became even more beautiful with your training. Good choice of gear, too. But that tail...OMG. Like flowing silver. Love what you are doing with him and looking forward to seeing more.
I noticed that as well. He is really developing well. His tail looks like flowing silver
Buri has already changed a lot physically. He is gorgeous!
Your training sessions are successful, especially as Buri puts a lot of effort into them. You're both doing a great job!
Thanks Matt for the update and thanks to Jesse for filming 😍👏💖
Okay, but the soft way that Matt and Jesse talk to each other... my heart.
He is so beautiful, poetry in motion as they say. You two working together make everything look so natural and easy. Buri is a handsome fellow, his proportions appear perfect to me and his demeanor couldn't be more amicable. Love him.
Funni Story, the last Saturday, i as an German Girl, was in the Netherlands at Venlo. We went Shopping at the Equidrome Shopping Center, which is amazing. As i left the Equidrome, i saw Jesse at the checkout 😮😍 but i was to shy as i could say Hello 👋🏼 also i left with a smile for myself, because i saw him randomly, but also a Little Bit sad, that i was to shy to Talk to him. So is say Hello from the distance, maybe neyt time 🤷🏻♀️❣️
Buri (sp?) is gorgeous … you have definitely picked a winner! And how nice that you ran into his breeder at the show. So nice to the know the full history, rather than guessing at it. What a cute pic of him as a foal.
One thing … his quirks will lend itself to some of the future designs you may wish to see in your new barn. Firstly, regardless if you’re building a barn or buying a property with a ready-built barn, at least now you’ll be cognizant of the space for an isle way. You’re probably always going to be dealing with stallions and it’s good to know more space is not wasted space and the benefits of.
He looks beautiful under saddle Matt … floating almost in appearance. His neck is really starting to build muscle and he’s holding himself so much better … seems very supple. I don’t think you’ll have any problems selling him when it comes time … and I’m not surprised you have already gotten interest in him. I know if I were in the market for a horse like him, I’d be reaching out to you! Oh … PLEASE DON’T CUT HIS MANE Matt!!!
Antares looks good … I’m wondering if this was before or after his surgery … I hope he’s recovering well. But I must say … it’s really noticeable that he’s a champagne colour. I always thought of him as a gray and was corrected by a viewer … I can clearly see he’s no where near a gray. I imagine it’s, in part, due to the lighting and in comparison to Buri.
Lastly, I think it was very brave of you, not to mention important, to impart on your psychotherapy … it’s a wise decision especially in the kind of world we live in today! It doesn’t mean one is crazy but it’s a safe environment to learn new coping mechanisms that one might not have otherwise learned, in how to deal with stress! I think promoting therapy may mean all the difference to someone watching today!
Look forward to the next update! 🙏🙌❤️🇨🇦
How great to meet your horses original owner and to learn his history .
His dappling is gorgeous! How awesome that you learned about his upbringing. And that baby picture! He was so dark, and his curly mane and tail!!! 😍 So cute! He really seems very chill for a stallion. What a good boy!
Thats what I noticed first. His dappling.
I just love dappled greys! It's my favorite coloring.
I really wish I had a horse trainer that speaks in the same level of detail that you do. It’s incredibly frustrating when all you get is “just move his hind over yeah?” Or “he needs more oomph, yeah?” Like literally no explanation as to why I’m doing the things they are barking at me to do. It’s simply “do as I say and don’t ask questions”. I am truly grateful that you are willing to share your training experience with your horses. It has helped me immensely! Thank you! I am always in awe when I watch you ride your horses because not only do you make it look so flawless and easily done, but you are so naturally in tune with each of your horses that it really is quite something to watch. Thank you for sharing your journey!!
I enjoyed this video tremendously! Thank you for including us!
Hey Matt, I was trained that rather than saying ummm it is okay for silence, it might seem a long time in our heads, but it is really quick. Love from Australia
Such a beautiful enhancement in Buri's movement. The training is definitely changing his physical appearance, can't wait to see what he will look like in two months. The two of you look as if you are one, gliding over the surface. Whoever purchases him, will be very fortunate. He is a lovely fellow.
He’s lovely. Such a soft, kind eye. Coming along nicely. It’s a measure of the man who will slowly and patiently build a horse’s strength rather than rushing to “get the job done”.
He's lovely Matt. I appreciate how you bring them along without rushing the process. He's coming along beautifully.
Oh my, he is sooo pretty! He actually looks silver, and his face is so kind and lovely! A horse like him has been my dream horse ever since I was a kid!! :) Unfortunately I'm not in the position to buy at all, but I'm sure he's gonna find an amazing home with someone who loves him!
What a beautiful horse. He is so handsome and seems sooo sweet.
Thanks Matt for encouraging therapy for good mental, emotional health. You are a treasure !!!
Lovely horse and rider. With his increased muscling in his hind end, Buri is now much more balanced in his body. He looks great! Also, I really love how fluid and elastic his movement has become, you can really see that with the shoulder-in, and the half-pass. I especially like how Buri steps under himself, many PRE's tend to be short with their hind end..... What a wonderful job you're doing bringing Buri along, your patience and kind manner are really setting him up for success.
Thank you for being open about the importance of therapy and mental health ❤ Your horse and riding are beautiful as always.
He is so beautiful and Matt you are drop dead gorgeous as well, so don't worry about the close ups!!!😂
You should be so proud. What a lovely job you are doing with him.
Beautiful horse. You’re doing such a nice job with him. Thank you for the voiceovers. They are helpful while we watch.
I love watching you ride, we were taught pretty well the same way. My riding coach passed away in Dec of 23', my horse was put down in 22' he was 26, we had 15 years together! Miss him alot 😢, but watching you I imagine myself up there and I'm like yes, good job, good try lol 😆 I had back surgery in May of 23' I'm hoping eventually I'll be able to ride again at some point. Believing the impossible is key! I was born with cerebral palsy so that has made things more difficult, but I used to do all the chores, etc. Loved the smell of the barn! Beautiful ride on that gorgeous boy, he'll keep improving as the days go on! It's really important to ride properly your body will thank you and the horse will as well! Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
He’s so handsome!! He’s coming right along with his training. He’s going to make someone a very nice horse when you’re done with him. ♥️🐴😊
Hi Matt, your an inspiration to me, I had to stop my career and sell my horses at age 28 due to a health issue that ended my career for ever. Making sure that you are taking care of yourself is very mature and intelligent. Even if you just had a birthday, your beautiful. Keep up the great work, I love watching your channel and family 😊❤
oh my gosh his tail at 8:17 is BEAUTIFUL, it's.. WHITE. a gray with a white tail all the way through. impressive 😂❤ dapple grays at that graying stage are my absolute favorite!
I love this horse. What a gentle spirit. He looks amazing and you work together so well. And thank you for sharing your therapy experience. It is amazingly beneficial. I would love to see people try it to understand how helpful it is!
Wow! This guy is absolutely stunning! You should keep him. Also happy birthday !🎉 You absolutely still look fabulous!
He's so gorgeous, the horse is too. ❤ you guys are so great with horses 🐎
Gorgeous horse, and I love when Jesse and you do videos together!
Beautiful horse and awesome riding, Matt. He was listening to your every word at the stable. You do not need to worry about close - ups. You have at least another 30 years of looking gorgeous!
Burri is really gorgeous and it’s great that you are taking it steadily Matt. I think it’s very brave of you to talk about you being in therapy and I’m so sorry for your stress but it’s good that your open about having therapy because you just never know how your openness may help someone else. Wishing you all the best Matt and thank you for all your videos and thanks to Jesse for excellent videoing. 👍😊x
I love when you do a voiceover, Matt. It's really helpful. Buri is very beautiful and well muscled. He looks great. He's really listening to you. 💜🐎
I truly love gray he's very nice. Beautiful
He is such a stunning dreamhorse - I am absolutely in love ❤
He’s magnificent, majestic & so chill. He’s in the best of hands
Very beautiful horse which such nice development for the short amount of time! He seems to be so sweet as well. He should be besides Bear with his stunning dapples!
I love watching you ride and listening to your voiceover narrate what you are doing!! Sometimes I rewind to watch again for a certain movement or action that you are describing. Lovely horse and he's really coming along!
Yes update in two months so exighted
Great training taking your time and letting him build muscle. You can definitely see the difference from the time that you tried him out until now. Love how patient you are with all of the Horses.😊
Great video guys! Such a handsome guy! Hope you had a great birthday Matt! 🎉
The changes in Buri’s neck are very evident even from the short time you’ve had him. I love the service you’re providing, it’s a real issue for young riders looking for their potential first sport horse and perhaps ending up disappointed in what can be achieved as a partnership and thinking the horse is not the correct fit for them. You’re setting up a horse that stands a far greater chance of understanding what their rider wants and how this can be achieved . Obviously this sort of training isn’t cheap but, in putting in the work with a slightly green horse, the chances of Buri becoming a forever horse are greatly increased.
Beautiful horse! Happy to see how he’s working!❤❤❤
Wow he looks amazing. Big difference in such a short time... ur passion is seen in ur animals...
He’s stunning Matt! He’s so chill.❤
It appears that Buri is very receptive to you as he really enjoys your persona which is not found in a typical male and I would suspect that this is a special treat for him. Once you have him well trained he will be a great candidate for someone to purchase and I hope you will have the chance to see him a few times after the sale. Thank you from the US for posting this and sharing your life with us.
Look at you guys 😃 The teamwork is amazing and in this small amount of time with everything else you’re juggling at the moment ♥️ Great work, you guys are gorgeous together 😊
Wonderful progress......nice pace of bringing him along at a steady pace.
That horse LOVES you! he is attentive to your every word & movement! Wow!
He seems like such a sweet horse, he has a kind eye. He's beautiful as well and he looks great under saddle! Much improvement already!
I appreciate the voiceovers. I like understanding the why as well as what you are doing. He’s coming along quite nicely.
He is going great, and his disposition is wonderful! ❤
Your attitude to training is so nice letting him learn slowly and gain confidence ❤
Doing a great job with him matt
we here usually think that dapples on horses mean they are happy :)
i really like his calm character, he stays where you put him, very relaxed, yet he’s aware of his surroundings.
Matt is using more seat then leg, i think, which gives the subtle look of aid using, they look nice together (well, this pony may be a little small for Matt, but still 😅). what a lovely horse! i hope he’ll find the owners who’ll adore him and riding him or even competing will be the greatest pleasure!
This is one horse you or Jesse should keep! NOt just is he stunning he is also willing and appears to have a phenomenal temperament. I could see Jesse riding this horse if not you. :)
It is so amazing how graceful these movements are, and especially on such a magnificent horse ❤
He is a stunning Horse with great movement.
I loved watching this update. You did a great job showing and articulating the work and the progress. He's beautiful. Looking forward to the next update! Take care guys!
Yay! A new video! So excited!
Beautiful video. I love watching you around and working with the horses. I’ve never owned or been around horses much but I’ve always loved watching them. Thank you for explaining things as you do them and how and why you work them a certain way and what you do to help them correct themselves. I just find what your doing so interesting and beautiful. Thank you for sharing Matt I really appreciate it. ❤❤
Beautiful horse always well turned out
I love how he moves. You do such a good job
Wow. He had already learned so much. So much progress. He's such a cutie.
❤
That is great go hear so much about his past life.
Thank you for the update...
Belated Happy Birthday wishes and all the best for you. Healthyness, luck and a long life should be always by your side... 🍀🐞✨🐞🍀
What a beautiful horse Matt❣️❣️❣️❣️. He seems to be doing great with your training. I like his canter where it looks like he is skipping along! Wonderfully done!! I want to say thank you Matt, for sharing that you too are in therapy and letting people know about the app Better Help where they can get local specific help with whatever the issue might be. Thanks again!!
Love this horse and watching his journey ❤️thanks for sharing would love to see you show him someday.
He looks so good. And is so sweet and calm for being a Stallion 🙌🏽
He’s right the first couple of weeks or months even it all falls apart my new 3 years has become a complete handful and slowly we’re getting there with patience and clear boundaries. Thanks for your videos x
He is gorgeous he looks great you two work well together ❤️ 😊
He is very beautiful, his transformation is incredible.
I had the same back engagement problem and I solved it with chambon work, you should try it. It helps to open the frame forward the vertical
He’s gorgeous ❤ you’re doing a fantastic job with him.
Great job Matt! He's beautiful!!🐎
I don’t know anything about horses and can see the difference in his conformation (I know what that is, at least) and temperament (not just a word describing horses). He seems calmer and looks more conditioned. You’ve worked your magic with him, and he can only get better. He is just a beauty!! 😊
He looks amazing Matt !!!!
Impressive. He wants to work and has great action.
Well done a very good example from the beginning and the softness at the end.
Always love watching your videos. You both have been an inspiration for this old gal even though my riding is very limited. Keep up the great work and never forget ; your are a spiritual being having a human experience.
He’s a really nice horse!! Looks like you are making great progress.
Oh wow, Matt! A huge THANK YOU for sharing your journey with therapy and normalizing the importance of finding a good therapist! Well done!
Also, Buri (sp?) Is looking wonderful!
I believe he's shaping up nicely. Great job!
He is beautiful and so chill.
Thanks for mentioning that everything goes to pieces for 2 weeks! I just bought a mare.. known her for years and helped with her initial training, she's fine when we're out but she's been very unsettled in the stable and wasn't eating well. Improving slowly (had a bit of fat to lose so not all bad!)
Great video! He is gorgeous! Love the dapples!
I enjoy both your technical videos and the personable ones about you, your partner and your lifestyle in the horse world. This is totally fascinating how you will develop this horse. You both have such loving manner towards your horses. They are lucky!
The child in me has a "small horse farm on my telework desk." But now I am now motivated to take some horse back riding lessons!
Gorgeous horse and definitely huge improvements from when he arrived.
Beautiful horse with massive potential. I had a beautiful dapple grey Highland I'm Scottish so perfect fit, anyway by the time she was 12 yrs old she was pure white so Buri has a little while to go before he loses all that beautiful dapple and becomes even more stunning. Best of luck with your boy.
Wow, he is coming on leaps and bounds and looks as though he is enjoying himself.
You are too Matt. You can see a huge difference in your own carriage and direction. You both look great together
Beautiful horse. I'm in love!
He’s so lovely and the change you’re doing with him is so correct. I was told by a trainer to never let these Iberian breeds stretch 😮I didn’t listen because they need to build a proper top line and that really is the only way
Buri seems to really enjoy his new country. Must have been a real shocker coming from barren Spain to lush Belgium. He looks so good under your care.
He looks so much better already, very good match ❤️
Thank you for sharing Buri with us. He is gorgeous and I love his coloring. He is looking so good in the ring and graceful in his movement. I'm not surprised you have people interested in him already. Quality and good breeding shows through. You picked a real winner with him!👍👏❤🐴
He is such a beautiful horse and looks great looks like he is fun to ride ❤❤
❤ I understand that you go into buying horses in a business-like manner to then resale benefitting horse and even vetted new owner, but how oh how do you let them go, so tempting to keep each one. 💞
Thank you for this update and your voice over which I really enjoy hearing your commentary with very helpful tips peppered in! 🙌
(& psa: 27 is not too 0OolLdD for closeups 😂) ❣
