Kaitehh Equestrian
Канада
Добавлен 10 фев 2022
Hi there! My name is Kaitlyn, and I'm a twenty-something lifelong equestrian who lives in Ontario, Canada. I grew up in the hunter/jumper world, and have been on a journey of self-improvement for both myself and my relationship to horses over the last few years. I hope to use this channel as a space to share my journey bringing along Merlin, my young warmblood, and to encourage others to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships with their horses through humane, science-based horse training. I want this to be a positive space that reflects the everyday experiences of an average equestrian with a normal job (or three), a boatload of student loan debt, and a deep love for these beautiful animals. I want to show where I am as an equestrian, but also where I've been and where I'm going - reflections and future goals. If any of this sounds interesting to you, please subscribe!

Howdy! Thanks for being so understanding about my absence over the last few weeks. I've had a rough time with losing my grandfather and some other people dear to me, so just needed some time.
Finally, here is the Kentucky vlog! I recognize that travel vlogs aren't everyone's cup of tea, but if you're interested - I hope you enjoy! If you're not interested in watching the haul of what we bought, you can stop watching at 27 minutes :)

Something a bit different today, but travel is a huge part of my being and Scotland is a place that holds a lot of meaningful memories for me so I thought that I would make some videos out of my trip a few weeks ago. There's two more to come from this trip, including a day in Stirling, where I lived, and a six-day road trip in the highlands, including pony trekking! FIND ME ELSEWHERE: Instagram...

More jumping PROGRESS with Eve the OTTB - on a windy and MISERABLE spring day 😂
I have a friend who lives in Indiana, she was so excited to have me visit because she'd always wanted to go to the Kentucky Horse Park, and now she could take me!!! 😂 I bought quite a few souvenirs there, and until I watched your vlog, I'd completely forgotten we also went to Churchill Downs. I didn't get any souvenirs there, I think they were very expensive, and mostly things like shot glasses and things that weren't horsey. I'll have to see if I can find my photos and digitise them! Thanks for the memory boost! 💖
New item on my bucket list 😂 Looks like an amazing time!
It was so much fun!! And when I tell you I have SO many different trips on my horsey bucket list.... 🤣
That pony horse is Harley....very well known ! And that belt is amazing.
I had seen him all over TikTok but didn't know his name!
His footsteps are so loud! I've only ever ridden 15.2-16.1 horses and I've never heard footsteps so loud!
You can definitely hear him coming from a mile away 😂 I think part of it is because his feet are so big. Thanks for checking out my video!
@@KaitehhEquestrian Of course! Merlin is such a cutie
Sometimes it's best to listen to the horse saying "nope" to a trail! I swear they're psychic!!! 😂 Merlin is looking really good these days xx
It is a smart thing to do eh? Especially with Mickey 😂 I’m still getting to know him and have learned that when he says “no” to something like that so adamantly, it’s for a pretty good reason and not worth trying to encourage him past it (even if you can’t see or hear the reason why he’s saying no 😂)

@@KaitehhEquestrian someone was taking her youngster out in-hand, just a stroll down the road, horse stopped and refused to budge. The girl was trying to see what he was looking at, or hearing, when a branch fell off a tree a few metres ahead of them! 😱
Oh lordy those turkeys!! Im so glad we don't have them in Ireland! 😂 Merlin is working nicely, I can remember when my horse was younger the progress we made was slow and steady, I'd get a few good minutes in a session, and it built up to several good sessions a week...then I got sick and all my hard work was for naught! 🥺
I made the decision to be smart and not put my life on the line by deciding to desensitize him to turkeys that day… I’m glad I did 😂 Thank you! He’s coming along really well. I’m starting to ask a bit more of him in his flatwork in terms of lateral movements and a bit more collection, but so slowly so that he can build up his muscles. This winter will be a time for transitions, laterals and lead changes! 💪
@KaitehhEquestrian my horse faints if there's a spot on the ground that's a different colour to the rest of the ground, you never know what he'll freak out at, so it's a problem desensitising him! There used to be a big flock of pigeons on the yard, and lots of them would flap around in the indoor school - they didn't bother him at all!! There was one pigeon who had a wonky leg, and he'd strut around on the ground, and he'd walk on the track in front of us, I'd get amazing collected walk, in an outline, on those occasions!! 🤣🤣🤣
Wow! I love this sooo much!! Me and my friends are starting a yt channel as well! Good luck!
A horse yt channel per chance? I am looking for channels to binge to avoid school exams lol
@ yes!! We will be having a new Halloween video coming out Thursday- Friday!! I can have you the yt name
@@Sharky.and.that.girlyyy Sure I would love to be one of your first subscribers!
@ YAYY THANK YOU!! it’s @4.crazy_equestrian.girlss
Thank you so much for checking out my video!! Good luck with your channel - it’s so much fun and a great creative outlet! 🩷
AWW! He/she is adorable! I have a feeling hell be a great jumper in the future :)
Scary as shit…..lol😂😂😂
Loved Mouseys “spice” 🥹🤣💞
Omg I loved the little training sesh with Nathalie and you 😂 it’s funny how easy you make Merlin look to ride and then when you see another person on him you’re like ohhh okay so that’s what it looks like without a pro Merlin rider on him 😂😂 Nathalie did such a good job though!! His canter looks sooo hard to sit or even half seat on 😂❤️
Omg Merlin definitely LOVED the tire jump 🥹🥹 the way he popped his knees up so high was so cute!! Also Nathalie you are NOT old I love that song too I was singing along with you 😂❤
YAYYYYY A NEW VIDEOOOOO
IMMMM SOOOOO EXCITEDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Merlin was really keen to jump the bigger jump!! 💖
I’m so impressed with Mr Merlin!! Your equitation over the massive oxers was so impressive! I am sooo happy you posted again. I really enjoy the vlogs even if they are sort of random, I just love your style of videos! Have a blessed day/night. 😊
I’m in the car so I can’t watch this without WiFi haha but im SO insanely excited from the thumbnail and the title of the video 😆😆😆
Thank you so much ❤❤
Merlin is getting to be a real dude!! 😍
soooo fun to see his first lead change and xc jump! well done :) i'm excited to see more groundwork videos because i was just thinking that i need to do more with my gelding this winter.
This video was SO exciting!! I have lovedddd these long horsey vlogs, Merlin is really coming along so well 🥺. That jump was so big and he did sooo good! I also love how educational your videos are, it’s really cool to learn about the arthritis exercises and I loved the last video that including the information about trimming Merlin’s shoes! 😄
I saw no fart. I saw massive amounts of air expel from the horse's nostrils.
lol not you mocking yourself 5:40 😂😂 it IS interesting though!!
Beautiful sunsets in this video! So glad to see Micky doing better!! Loveddd this video!!
Merlin did SO good over his first XC jump!! He was so good in the grass arena too, I’m so impressed with Mr Merlin and of course his awesome mummy 🥹
Poor mousey with his abscesses, hope he gets better soon! I totally agree with the “this is heaven!” When you were cantering haha
Very handy skill to have! I've often thought I should learn some basic farrier stuff, my horse likes pulling his shoes off hooning around in the field, and a couple of times he's torn a chunk out of his hoof. Would be great to be able to sort it myself, to an extent, while waiting for the farrier.
I always to forget gloves when rasping....and my hands get so cut up !
This is such an amazing video!! I lovee that you let him say "no"!❤ Do you maybe have some tips on getting more confident during hacking? Because I absolutly love it but I get nervous quite easly...
How is he doing now?
He is doing very well! If you check out my newer videos you can see exactly how well :) now 5 years old and thriving.
I am loving the editing you put into this video! Looks like a magical place 😊
Thank you Sara! It was such a wonderful trip ❣️
I am LOVING the cute Auntie-outfits for Merlin's ears/ headstall :')
Doesn’t she have the cutest bonnets? I’ve gotta up my game 😂
Well done Auntie Natalie! 💖
She took such great care of him! ❣️
This is giving such childhood fun with horses <3 Love seeing you so happy at your new barn!
It was so much fun!! We’ve been having a similar week this week, I’m so excited to post it once I’m all caught up on my editing!
I’m so excited for this video it’s been a while since your last post, but I get that you’ve been so busy with your vacation! I hope you’re having fun!!
Lots of videos to come in the next few weeks… I’ve currently got about 5 to edit! 😁
@@KaitehhEquestrian omg 😳 yay!!!
Good video! Enjoy your vacation!
Thank you! I had a blast in Scotland and now I’m just getting caught up on the editing! 😁
@@KaitehhEquestrian You’re welcome!
Merlin likes jumping!
He sure does!! 💙
Merlin is gorgeous when he puts his head and neck down
Thank you! He LOVES to stretch!
I learn so much from these types of videos! Thanks for sharing
I’m so happy you enjoyed! Thanks for watching! 🫶
Poor Mickey, hope his abscess cleared up. Aww Dixie's adorable!!
I felt so bad for him!! Thankfully he seems to be on the mend now :D
What a precious little pony. She was trying so hard on those jumps ❤❤❤❤❤ ty for sharing
She’s the absolute sweetest isn’t she?? I love her so much. And her little face… such a kissable white nose!
Informative video! I am thinking about getting a young horse too. I don’t mind giving up riding for a bit but I don’t want to not ride for three years. Did you have another horse ?
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with two other horses while Merlin was growing up, one of whom was Eve, an OTTB who I retrained from July of 2022 through June of this year. She belonged to my old coach :) I didn’t have the means to have more than one horse but I was very fortunate to be given opportunities to ride others’ horses xx
I LOVED this video! So cool to see their partnership and him getting him moving long and low! I saw a lot of relaxation in him over the video and its so cool to see!!
Thank you Sara!! 💙 It was such a fun night and I hope we do more of it in the future!
