My goal with this channel is to offer useful horse training tips built on behavioral science. Using positive reinforcement (R+)/clicker training you can solve most any training challenge with any animal - but I am focusing on helping horses and their people. I have spent years explaining these proven scientific principles in a way that is easy to follow and understand. The science is useless if it isn't delivered in a way that is simple to put into use with your horse and your situation. I truly enjoy helping people resolve their horse issues and to empower them as horsemen and women.

He is up for the challenge and fun of his explorations. The key here… its completely at his own pace. Giving horses choice is something we do A LOT of at Shawna Karrasch Equine and it starts young.

Clicker Trained Horse Does the Jump Chute Brilliantly Without Whips or Chasing
Просмотров 1 тыс.4 месяца назад
Santino loves to jump because he has only had pleasant associations with it. We have never chased or added pressure for him to go through the jump chute. Instead, we have made jumping a fun game for him. At first, we started with simple rails on the ground and taught him to go to the person standing at the target at the end of the line. Eventually, you can see we removed the human and he finds ...

Teaching a Horse Manners Around Food
Просмотров 9596 месяцев назад
It might seem strange that by feeding food, we can improve food manners, but it's true! Actually we can eliminate biting. We get more of what we reinforce. If you feed the muggy/pushy horse, you will get more of that behavior. If you reward your horse for keeping his head to himself, he very quickly will understand that standing relaxed is what will earn the reinforcement. We call this an incom...

Is it also possible he is getting filled up with high reinforcement rate food and satiated more and more, so the agency to get to the food reduces, making his tension reduce too?
OMG when she was offering random behaviours that so made me laugh! #keepingitreal Thank you for the video so very helpful.
get away from the toxic people !! I'm running... lol...
❤
I have been messing about with using positive reinforcement for 20 years now, but there’s always more to learn and I always learn something from Shawna. X
Very useful. I shall have a think about this with my horse
I can not stop laughing
You look like two scary people from the Halloween Movie!!! I am SO GLAD to know that there are people almost as crazy as I am!
So, Jessie just calls anything a face mask and Shawna puts it on her face 🤣 , how did she ever get that tube of Tire Black off her face??? That stuff is toxic ya know...just one of the side effects is that it causes people to walk down the street in a tutu and clown tights! Only 2 women and SOOOO many talents!!! 🤣😂🤣😂
Haha Kim. She had a hard time getting that off. But it was a Hawaiian black salt mask I think.
You 2 are so silly together 😂😂thanks for making me smile. The horses are amazing sports for putting up with all your shenanigans too they must think “oh boy here we go again our moms came up with another crazy idea”🤭😆
Haha! 🤣 yes they put up with a lot from us.
Super cute guy, looking forward to seeing all the things you'll be doing with him. 🤩🥰😍
Oh my gosh pocket rocket 🚀 zoomies ⚡️😂🤎🐎what a little speed monster I love watching foals have fun he’s not scared at ALL.
This is truly good training, he’s such a good boy.
Go Tini!! He looks so happy like he’s really enjoying himself.🐎🧡🔥🤗
Love what you do❤
Very well articulated! 🐎💞🐎
Thank you
I actually need to do more of this with Lacey. Thanks for the email ❤
Such a great teaching video thank you!! I find it really interesting that it’s said by many that if you only train your horse(or dogs,cats etc)only using R+/food that all they come to focus on and care about is the food which leads to mugging/being pushy BUT this shows that if you follow the right steps from a resource who knows what they’re doing(like you guys ❤️🔥🐎)and the proper guidelines/steps are taken showing various different strategies to help then it can work out and change the human and animals experience/relationship even. On another note this mare is a gorgeous bay and huge it seems like I love the white marking on her forehead almost like a streak that’s been brushed on her face.🤎🤍😍
Hi. you made a video 10 years ago, talking about what to do if your horse jumps towards you when spooked. Do you think that's something you could discuss more, or advise on in more detail? My horse has moved into a new paddock where there is a shock wire separating him from cows. Since he got zapped about 2 weeks ago he seems spooked every so often and lunges at me and has pushed me to the ground. Any advise would so appreciated.
I think Shawna has an available email address maybe it would also help you to send a detailed email that she’ll see sooner.🐎🤗
Is he a rescue ?? I so enjoy R+ being used with animals that are unsure about the world and once the lightbulb goes off they really start to enjoy themselves thank you for showing people this special magic and all the benefits it has when done in the right way,it really has a big impact on the humans and the animals.🥺❣️🐎
Awesome an extra long video thank you!! This one was meant for me with such a handsome red boy as a ginger myself red horses have a special place in my heart. I love listening to them blow it’s such a soothing sound,another thing that I love about this is how at first he was worried about moving around but as it continued he gradually starts to relax and realize that the human will keep him safe and he’ll still be able to go back to his friend.🥺❤️🔥🐎🤗
🐎🧡always enjoy learning more about training different behaviors and how to time everything so it stays interesting and fun,thank you.😊✨
Her Coat looks So Healthy and Shiny
I am the same. Came to the training with Shawna
Thank you so much for making these episodes public ❤
Thank you, this is so important to talk about. If we can do this to help our horses feel safe and try more, we need to remember to do this with people. We are all a work in progress, and we all need to give and receive grace.
Hi, could you show more videos containing jumps? Thank you and congratulations on your work. I think using the clicker can improve the horse's jumping aptitude. What do you think about it?
It absolutely can. We will do our best to get more jumping footage for you. You’re right. It’s much needed. (Jessie)
Do you have any advice for a horse that tries to bite you at the mounting block? My horse will try to bite my legs and almost knock me off sometimes. It’s like he’s annoyed I’m not giving him all the treats at once and he has to stand still😭
I have been riding and training since I was 6. First horse at 10. Showed A levels and then fox hunting, giving lessons, running camps, working at racetrack farms and breeding farms - then at a dressage barn and an eventing barn - higher and higher I went and seemed like the universe was always putting me with the horses that had issues - the hot and fire-y ones that needed people to train with DIFFERENT philosophy - just taking time to communicate. I got to know classical dressage. My first degree was biology with a focus on neuro biology and then psychology and genetics - later I got two masters - and I also became a barefoot trimmer to help rehab the feet of horses that did not get to have those first 3-6 years to grow their feet to maturity naturally. I have been very successful rehabbing horses barefooting. At the time when I started this is was for a large OTTB rehab. I agree with so much of what you are sharing - we need to continue to do better. And these old trainers got to where they are using the old ways usually and because of their status within the horse world, we do not stand up to them - and when a video comes out - so many people rush in to defend them - but I think what needs to be said is - she is not the villain - but we need to evolve. There were several things said and done in the video that show the training utilizes force and fear. The whole discussion on the stick was when my heart dropped. And not because I decided to not like Katie that moment - I still respect her for her knowledge - but it reminded me how people train all over - how some people look at horses as beings to respect and some look at them as vehicles for the sport only. And I will express something after 40 years training, riding and running horse businesses - I have ran a few retirements for high end ex-show horses - special needs - and pretty much every ex-showjumper or ex-event horse - they often are crippled physically before mentally ready to go. I find out that because of their high level abilities and the maintenance options to keep them going - the owners pushed them as far as long as they could. And then at age 22-23, they are no longer getting that level of care and they are getting older. And I just am seeing that - maybe that job should have been stopped earlier in their lives? This is another topic to discuss. I do not see that with ex-dressage horses as much. We need to evolve and be humble and - it is ok if WE realize WE did something that now we realize was not the best choice. I remember as a kid when George Morris advocated that kids ride in a twisted wire snaffle. Do you remember that? And a tight martingale. George Morris wrote about 15 years ago I believe it was that he regrets that. Horse riding like we know it - IS NEW. Go look up horse jumping 100 years ago. Did ya find any women? Probably you found mostly men in uniform. Things have changed so much. My trainer as a kid trained under Katie BTW and I had a poster with her jumping on it on my wall. I was more of a Michael Matz kind of girl - but these were heroes of mine. I remember being at a Jan Ebeling clinic in the mid 90s and he sent a women out on a DWB that was 4. He said - bring him back after he has grown. And yet in 2014, I gave a lesson to a girl while a TOP LEVEL AQHA trainer was in the arena on a two year old with a heavy apparatus in the horse's mouth and the lesson was that if he moved a muscle, he would get his face jerked off. This same woman ignored the manager when he said no horses in the field with back shoes on and put her client's horse out with back shoes and within 2 days - a girl's mare had to be put down from being kicked in the shoulder by said shoes. This trainer just ran everyone over and no one said anything to her face because she tended to win at the worlds competitions. We do need to speak the truth - and not enable people - we need to not be afraid of the horse industry changing - we need to be horse advocates and trust that as we continue to advocate for the horse - the industry will continue to evolve into something better. Better for the horses. That's the most important thing.
Thank you for supporting the horse and advocating for a better way.
The industry needs to step up for the welfare of the horse. We know better, so we need to do better. Thank you for bringing positive reinforcement into the Equine world. You are making the world a so much better place for the horse❣️
These kinds of conversations need to continue. 💜
Incredible conversation, thank you!
Thank you for caring so much for the horses and the empathy you guys have for the traditional trainers in hopes that they find value in R+
Awww, we appreciate you and your warm words. ❤
Thank you guys so much, looking forward to tomorrow's podcast. 💙💜❤
Thank you for joining us. We appreciate you! 😊
@@shawnakarrasch Back at ya sisters, you and Jessie are he best!
Hi Shawna! Border collies are known to be the most intelligent dog, but what is the most intelligent horse breed? Do certain horse breeds tend to learn faster than others?
Not to be cynical or critical, but does a horse trained with treats to that degree ever perform without treats?
Absolutely! We fade the food from each behavior. Follow us on Facebook if you care to 😊. You can see horses there being ridden and shown using positive reinforcement.
Oh Tini Beanie so smart and my gosh his coat/coloring is just 🤎🔥I love him!! There’s just something about this guy I’ve never met him in person (though I’d love to!🥹)that immediately puts a smile on my face his curiosity/real enjoyment around people and wanting to connect is really sweet to watch,Santino is just so much fun a very special young man for sure you guys are so lucky to have him.🐎🤗
Thank you Shannon! That is very kind of you. He is one big sweet guy. We have fun with him. ❤ (Jessie)
@@shawnakarrasch That makes me so happy. I wish 🐎 everywhere were as loved/treated so respectfully as yours/Shawnas🤎🤎
Always so interesting to see the difference in how horses respond emotionally to clicker training, open, relaxed learning. Love it!
OMG I LOVE these videos!! Thanks Shawna and Jessie!❤
you just know
For me this journey has been a myriad of emotions where I feel 2024 is finally connecting the dots. I am a trainer in TX that comes from the Morgan Horse Show world and industry. While I, among many have only been taught or mentored in one way with a certain amount of knowledge that was thought to be the way to teach a horse, I truly felt my methods were kinder and more thoughtful towards helping a horse get through trauma. My introduction to R+ was through a clinic I attended with my daughter with Shawna. To say it was eye opening was an understatement. Those who are open minded to learning and change come out with a lot of excitement and couldn’t wait to begin. So much so we hosted a second clinic a few months later. You dive in without realizing exactly how different it is. You do classes and fall behind because at the same time you are still trying to earn a living to support what you do while still maintaining interest with the clients you have. It’s hard. 2022-2023 was a lot of change. But much like you stated in this video…horses get overwhelmed and confused sometimes frustrated… same as people. I did. While I don’t consider myself a full out R+ trainer I do feel I have changed a lot about the horses environment, diet, care and how I train as a whole…how I even teach lessons that made an impact that I couldn’t see till now. So just like R+ training with horses, any small step toward a betterment, even if it’s not full blown R+ all the way needs to be rewarded or recognized. Because otherwise the top people will get frustrated. I had to remember to give myself grace :) So my new years resolution is to become better. To try and make more small changes every day in that direction. And to continue to show them by being present at shows and continuing with the RUclips channel for training rehabs. Thanks for sharing :)
Love this! Brightened my hope for the horse world for today. Thanks all!
Hi Shawna! The course looks amazing! Do you think it's possible to train a horse under saddle with R+, if the same horse is also ridden by riders who use pressure and release?
Hi! This is Jessie. The answer is yes. Even if they’re doing both (lots of horses do) they will quickly be able to differentiate between the two.
