So perfect, though in its way... I absolutely loved how you calmly went after her, brought her back and continued the session. She was still looking for any way out possible. I was waiting for when she would finally turn inward instead of out. My days of training are behind me now, but it's such a magical dance of communication and I loved every minute. It was a gift.
Same for me, I'm long past the "magical dance". But how wonderful and worthwhile the work was in helping horses find themselves and become even more awesome. It really was the great love of my life.
@@348Tobico that happened to me too. Life took me in a different direction and then sucked me back into this beautiful and rewarding world. Never say never.
I’m a new subscriber. I watch several different horse trainers due to the fact would have loved that as my life work. I actually “apprenticed” (worked for free😂) for three different horse women trainers. How one handles horses tells you a lot about a person and you sir seem like a good man. Enjoying your videos!
Beautiful, loving, respectful and smart job of letting the mare settle a bit before allowing her to refocus her mind and look for leadership. Just proves how smart horses can practically scare themselves to death sometimes. And thank heaven you didn't "punish" her for taking advantage of the open gate! I think most bad horse handling is because the horses either take advantage, like this time, or embarass the handler. And some humans are just cruel. You are a gem, though! You encouraged her to get over her self administered fright and to "meditate" with you. So terrific to watch! Thanks for the master class.
Sometimes it's in those moments of chaos we learn our greatest lessons. She may have been telling you she's bored with that lesson, let's find something else. I like how you kept her moving after she joined up,not letting her refocus on the situation.Well done.
What a great observation! Yes, horses teach you to be productive in every moment, always aware of what you are doing, always checking your intentions, so when things go off plan, you think to yourself, how can I turn this lemon into lemonade.
She had the zoomies and she definitely knew where all the gates are.She is a lovely mover and she is having fun showing off! ❤❤ Watching you working with her when she finally came back to you was so interesting. Everything you said and did was done with so much calmness.
@@elitehorsemanship8765 I trained an appendix qh that looked just like that girl… she would rather run than look at a human… took over half an hr to stop running in a panic and I found I had to remove myself a few times and then finally she stopped… the previous owner said she was hard to catch and after that she never ran from anyone… she was one of the fastest mares I ever rode and they dumped her because she ran off and broke the ankle of the last rider … I feel bad that I sold her … she was wonderful to ride and she had an ulcer that was fixed with plain alfalfa hay…I tried to find her and found out they couldn’t ride her at the auction… never found her … God bless her
I loved those words... to find peace by herself. That to me says it all and you have the insight to give to this horse. Hope she finds whatever she needs. Rotorua, New Zealand 🇳🇿

Hi🙋🏻♀️🐴❤️everyone 🗺️🕊️🫶 Thank you for being Patient, Understanding & Caring with Sapphire 🐴❤️ Animals are Innocent just like Babies, Children, Vulnerable people or some Kindred Spirits who need to be treated with Compassion, Empathy, Kindness! I love ❤️ Animals & one has to put themselves in their shoes/Situation how would we feel? God✨Bless🙌🤲🙏🌈us all🗺️🕊️🫶MC/Q🕊️🫶🌹
I felt like she might look for me herself and calm herself down. I wanted to give her that opportunity. Watching her reminded me of how many of us are fighting battles within ourselves, not realising that we are in a safe place.
@@elitehorsemanship8765she is not in a safe place, as she sees it. You are encouraging her to run so that she is frightened by the increaed saddle noises, as you pointed out. The horse is winded and dripping sweat. If the trainer is deliberately increasing the horse's fear, I don't see that as the horse "working herself" into a panic; I see it as the trainer setting up the situation so the frightened horse exhausts herself, again as you point out with a laugh. Running a horse to exhaustion does not appeal to me as a training method nor do I find it amusing.
@@donnakline4212 interesting point of view. So here is the sequence of events. I take her into an arena. I remove the lead rope. She takes off trotting. She does not realize that she is in a safe place. She canters. Gains speed, she panics. If I go in straight away and stop her, always keeping her in her comfort zone, the she will never go through a seemingly scary experience and realize that she is safe, that there was nothing to worry about. As I assess the situation, she struggles. So I decide, a period of time, to step in. She could have continued to canter, literally, for at least 100km, but it was only a few minutes. The exhaustion comment was on the sarcastic side. She was very far from exhaustion. I go in, with ever restricting her movement, and help her to calm down. She does. The next day, she walks off in the same arena, head down low, finds a nice place, rolls, stands up, and walks back over to me, and stands next to me. Training was a success
@@elitehorsemanship8765 you do not address your own opening comments that she is afraid of the pressure of the saddle and its noises. And you repeatedly make her go faster so it would be scarier. Your description of her working herself into a panic is simply false - you are creating an anxiety provoking situation. Think of it this way - if someone tied a backpack to you that made scary sounds - like a ticking bomb, for example, or a rattling snake - and made you run so that it would make even more scary noises, would you describe yourself as making yourself panic or the joker who put the backpack on you?
@@donnakline4212 using your logic I should just release into the desert and throw her some feed whenever I see her? I should not attempt to work with her or to train her or heaven forbid…..even ride her? Or ima different way, never send your kids to school, because they get scared of leaving their mother for the first time. Who is creating that fear? The child with its own thoughts, or the joker that gave birth to them?
When she finally "calms down" ... is this what is called "learned helplessness" ? Resigning herself to the situation as she can neither get rid of the saddle nor can she get out and back to her stall ?
Not really. Allow me to give an example of learned helplessness. a child regularly performs poorly on exams even after studying, they may start to believe that preparing for tests is ineffective and won't have any impact on their grade. With sapphire, she learns that she has ultimate control over a situation as she has the ability to remove any stress from her situation, by simply calming down and looking for the alpha in her herd for direction. Hope that helps. And great question. 👍
Punishment never makes sense to a horse. They pick up on the bad intentions and don’t understand the pressure that follows. People that beat horses out of frustration and anger are ignorantly treating their horses. Thanks for your comment Dawn.
the horse is quite underweight with zero muscles on her hindquarters...she likely has a severe ulcer that causes her alot of pain when saddled....get her some ulcer medicine and in a few days with plenty of alfalfa hay to eat this horse will be dramatically different...
but a horse like that will never show symptoms of pain… she just runs when she can and tries to escape… my mare did the same thing and when I fixed her ulcer she changed into a different horse.. gained weight and looked me in the eyes… a horse can develop an ulcer in 12 hrs or less and the solution is alfalfa hay or meds … the hay is the best tho… any horse that runs when the saddle tightens is in pain except for the youngsters saddled for the first time of course
Due to her extreme fear and distrust of humans, she was difficult to get close to. Put a couple of people in hospital when they got too close. Kicked them. So she was just afraid. I am looking forward to releasing the next videos.
Just panicked. Had to see if she could calm herself down... Pleased to say that the next day was something amazing to witness. She just walked off into the arena with her head down and had a nice roll before she came back to me
The abused horse ran to what he hoped the safety of his stall But this monster came right in after him. I can tell just that by the way he leads the horse, he is an idiot. Training begins with leading. You walk beside a horse when leading you, and you don't drag him a couple of yards behind.
I worked as a proffesional groom at a saddlbred farm . I could never do it again the crimes i saw against horses in the name of money and prestiege. A sin.
Im poweful look at me i traumatized a beautiful animal i have been graced to be near. Buddy horses are smart enough to know a gate is the way out of work. She would rsther be with other horses at liesure grazing wither shaking a fly or two off at peace and not with you believe me. That gate for horses is always going to lead to work or pasture to them. Which would you choose if you were a horse? Saddked up no bridle in flight mode with the man who put her to flight in the first place or the later. Out with her stablemates in relative peace without you nezrby. Go turn her loose with her friends come back in an hour whistle kiss or knicker for her and see if she has the time of day for you, she cant stand you. She tolerate you because she knows she had to deal with you the price for her liesure.

This horse is stunningly beautiful.
I agree
Wow, that was so beautiful to watch her figure out how to calm down, which is to run to you.
Part of the reward you get when you take on the responsibility. I am sure you can relate!

You’re welcome Shannon.
Great to see the patience of the trainer. It is what more parents should do whith their children... Patience and giving safety and security!
I agree!!
Fantastic join up, with a sweet horse.
She’s a great companion
I’ve had this happen to me. I did the same thing. It’s interesting to actually watch a horse want to connect.
And incredibly rewarding
@@elitehorsemanship8765 Indeed!
Love your calm demeanor
Thank you
I love that you are not stopping this process. You are allowing her to face her fear. Thankyou for your kindness.
Well, she had rollback, flying lead change, counter canter, side pass, transitions, and hookup figured out in the first lesson!😂❤
Right on!
The reason we can 'train' them to do those, is because they are natural to the horse. We are only training to do them when WE ask.

They are always looking for a leader. ❤ Good job.
Thank you!

Why did you leave her in panic mode for so long? It feels like it would have been better to help her calm down a lot sooner?
I felt like she might look for me herself and calm herself down. I wanted to give her that opportunity. Watching her reminded me of how many of us are fighting battles within ourselves, not realising that we are in a safe place.

Lounging her first would have prevented it all.
Very nice! She's definitely a pretty girl.
I think so too!
I agree not my way of training but everyone has there own ways i guess. At least he didn't beat when he caught her I've seen stupid people do it.
Punishment never makes sense to a horse. They pick up on the bad intentions and don’t understand the pressure that follows. People that beat horses out of frustration and anger are ignorantly treating their horses. Thanks for your comment Dawn.
Seems awfully thin. She's very sweaty, needs a break. Too much. Surprised she doesn't jump the fence.
See previous replies.
She is on heat
Don't think so, but never thought of that!
the horse is quite underweight with zero muscles on her hindquarters...she likely has a severe ulcer that causes her alot of pain when saddled....get her some ulcer medicine and in a few days with plenty of alfalfa hay to eat this horse will be dramatically different...

A simple case of horse being smarter than humans
If we only knew…..
Where are you located?
I live in Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates.
As he asses the situation whos his boss. Who owns the horse a witch?
She just learned a new trick. Teach her another one.
Horses serve without servility. No tricks here.
Interesting that you use a western(cowboy) saddle
I just love them. They are also the best saddles to use when starting horses. They can take any saddle after that.
she was going to corners looking for an open gate after finding her way out the first time.
Probabky
I think she's a bit tired
Why was she so stressed?
Due to her extreme fear and distrust of humans, she was difficult to get close to. Put a couple of people in hospital when they got too close. Kicked them. So she was just afraid. I am looking forward to releasing the next videos.
Did she run into her own stall?
No a different one!
Barn sour or buddy sour?
Just panicked. Had to see if she could calm herself down... Pleased to say that the next day was something amazing to witness. She just walked off into the arena with her head down and had a nice roll before she came back to me
I feel bad, she knows she escaped before and now the escape is gone
Oh well.
Is this the backside of a track ?
No it’s just a normal humble farm.
What caused the panic?
Watch the journey.
Why did you leave the gate open?!🤪
To make this video obviously 👍🤦♂️
@@elitehorsemanship8765 😂Best answer!!😂
This is could have ended up with a severley injured horse. This is not a method i would suggest to anyone.
She was begging for direction from you at the get go!
You are right. But I wanted to see if she could get through it on her own.
Nice Gates! Waste of $$$, apparently. 🤣
🤦♂️
Its cruel to get the horse in such a panic modus🙈🙈🙈absolutly senseless😢😢😢poor horse...bad trainer...
Not sure how you came to that conclusion…. I think you’ll find that my job was to calm her down!
Spellbinding …

Ok
All these know it all's in the comments, truly awful people hang around horses.
It always comes when posting online. But I appreciate the support 😊😊
Elite What? Its more important filming than getting the horse safe.
Yep. I did think about running after her at 40mph but remembered my max is around 15mph and can last a few seconds.
I prefer Ryan Rose's training methods. He doesn't use exhaustion to train a horse!
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
It would take close to 100km of constant cantering to get anywhere near exhausting a horse!!
He should never of left her! She is now so worked up and scared! I’m not impressed with the way you train !
No problem.

How come?
Why?
Her hind left leg appears to be limping somewhat.
You have a good eye for sure.
You Sir, are no trainer🤢
I think you mean “trainer”
