Women: "Horses are prey animals. You have to make sure you gain their trust so they know they are safe with you." Men: "Horses are herd animals. You have to make sure you gain their respect so they know they have to follow you."
I do the both of them with my animals, they should respect, and trust me, the only cases in which my animal should be scared, is when they’re doing something dangerous to them or others and I need them to know that they should be scared because it is dangerous (my dog running onto the road or carelessly approaching/chasing other dogs and animals for example, could get someone else badly hurt or even killed, or he could get himself badly hurt or even killed, and if he hurts someone else or someone else’s animal, he could also get put down, it’s better that he’s a bit scared of the road, or cautious around new animals and people, than dead because he’s reckless)
IMO you need to have both. Not enough respect and they like you but consider you on the bottom of the pecking order. Too rough and they fear you but don't like you.
Now I feel bad since that's how i do it! However I noticed if I throw loose hay over and a flake, the horses always choose the compacted flake first. So i feel kinda bad when I put in loose hay, except I don't want to waste loose hay either!
@@OnceUponaTimelineThat's because the loose hay more likely lost some or most of the seed heads and best bits-- the stuff we call the "candy.". Even though they'll have to work for it, the compacted flake still has the candy in it. Ever notice how they kind of throw the hay around, and eat the candy that falls through to the ground first? Or the cleverer ones try to pick out the candy without letting it hit the ground. Then they go for the most tender stems and work their way to the toughest parts last, except they usually don't eat that because they've trodden all over it as they picked out the better bits, and they know another flake will be coming their way soon. That's the stuff that ends up being dumped with the manure.
@@NavvyMom I know what you mean but we don't have much diff between with our hay, it gets eaten fast and stays pretty fresh. The 'loose' stuff has also often only been kinda loose for a short while because I was making half flakes for some of the horses that get more bermuda instead. Most of them don't throw it around much either. We also have one wierdo that only cares about stems, silly boy, he'll just stop eating if there's no stems even if there is an inch of leaf bits stacked up.
@@OnceUponaTimeline Sounds like you have really nice hay. Where I am it's a crapshoot how nice the hay will be. Can count on one hand the times they've cleaned up every piece.
As a male equestrian this is almost entirely accurate except I do wear a helmet. My brain is already damaged enough. I don’t need to make it worse. Though I sometimes wonder if I hit it hard enough maybe I’ll finally be normal.
My favorite male equestrian is Warwick Schiller. He has such a kind gentle manner with his horses, and I love that he never uses fear or intimidation to train, only classical conditioning. He's not preoccupied with "disrespect" or "being the boss" he wants the horse to feel comfortable with him and rely on him for guidance.
I miss having my horse. Talked to her all the time while I was grooming her. I used to tell that she was the only woman in my life that didn’t let me down.
I always threw a flake, or two, over the fence. I referred to it as the Olympic Hay Toss, and used to go for distance and accuracy. Extra points in hitting the horses head.
I will name my horses after famous old people because I want them to remain in good shape for many years. I might get a mare called Elizabeth after the Queen.
So hilarious ! However men prefer to hide their own feelings for animals not to seem to be too weak. Old education. I remember my father saying No I don't really like this cat. Then when he thought he was alone he was smiling, talking to him with a soft voice. ☺️ It must be the same with horses. 😉
Ha, I'm an activity leader with children, and once we went to a barn. There was this big boy who was always acting tough, but there he was petting and giving hugs to the pony he had to take care of. Big cuddly fellow. 😊
I rescued an injured porcupine the other night. It was in a box in the bathroom for the night, and my husband seemed really grumpy about it. He thought I was asleep, but I could hear him chatting away with it for 20 minutes while he was in there washing up. 😂 ❤
Why as a guy did I relate to the woman part more 😆 I think its just dependant on how soft u are, and girls are usually softer and more caring with animals hahahah
funny funny... suggested addendum... women who anathromorphize their horses into boyfriends... men who try to act firm and stoic with horses, but then secretly show them affection
Separating the flakes of hay is proper. You can check for any sticks that can hurt a horse. Find beetles inside the hay. Shake out any dust if there. Some bales can contain harmful things. Tack should be kept indoors.
As a female wishing I had my own horse (I LOVE them), I know I’d be like Carmella! I rode my uncle’s horses and his attitude with them was same as your dad’s. Uncles only request……we put the tack away neatly and where it belonged……don’t know if I could even hoist a saddle up anymore! I’m 78. I’d try tho, if given a chance again! Miss those days! 😢
My husband is the horseman. His conversation with the horse consists of clucking, whoa, whup, ho and a gravelly “here!” if the horse is out of line. Their names are their description: bay filly, paint gelding, 2 year old, etc.
@@cobrebluebonnetequinechall4782 It was a joke, it isn't really a man vs woman thing, but there’s always truth in jest. Anyone can claim to be a horse trainer, but I prefer a true Horsemen, one that understands how horses think. IME, women do have a tendency of SPOILING their horses by treating them like their child. Spoiled horses make dangerous horses. ✌🏼😎
@cdcdogs4961 I’ve never seen that. There are more „trainers“ out there (both men and women, but more males) that abuse and flood their horses and call that training. That’s way more dangerous than a spoiled horse. The people that spoil their horses are mainly amateur riders that don’t know much and don’t claim to be trainers.
I feel this is me with every aspect of life. Myself: "Okay, everything just so, and we're all optimized and happy..." Reality: "Just do it and call it good. What're you wasting all that extra time for?" Myself: ".... seriously??"
As a woman who grew up with Shetland Ponys, everything is accurate! Except for working out. In that case, I too need to work them through it and constantly put the pressure on. ^^'
Considering that research on rabbits shows that an unhealthy diet can be compensated for through lots of love and affection it sounds like Horses owned by women like this are likely to be healthier
@@Warriorbob-im5py If you're too proud or stupid to protect your own brain, you require others to assist you. Put your helmet on or get off the property because your pride isn't worth losing insurance coverage over.
@@CDN_Bookmouse Ever thought that people may be doing this on their own property? It's really no one's business. Whether you wear a helmet or not when riding a horse is a choice everyone can make for themselves!
@@NeonJJ_195 Of course it's better to be safe than sorry, but some people don't understand that. It may be your choice, but maybe choose the option that won't kill you?
My horses all had names at their previous homes and they were all names like Herbert, Jay Jay, Milo, etc. I only ever named two of my horses, one was a very abused rescue called Casper (he was pure white) and I renamed him Pegasus, the other was an OTT, I wasn't told his name, so I called him "Belgian Chocolate", or "Chocolate" for short. He was a beautiful shade of brown. Pegasus ended up being an outstanding horse, he was a Quarter Horse x Arab and was one of the best horses I think I have ever ridden! I probably shouldn't have sold him, but I did. He went to a very good home though, to be the personal horse of another "Horse Rescue" lady.
I have come to realize why I get along better with the horse guys...I act just like them 🙃 I even have a black bridle and brown saddle and the off billet, rear cinch and latigo are all different colors. I even replaced the old brown stirrups with black ones. My horses just have short names, I work the horses like a guy does, I don't talk to them, I don't pet and cuddle them like a dog (I don't even do that with my dog, I don't like over exciting dogs), I don't wear a helmet, I don't run out and throw blankets on them when it's snowing, the only "English" looking saddle I own is a working Australian stock saddle and I don't go running out to save the "saddles" if it's raining....plus, I'll still go riding in the rain or snow. About the only thing I do is worry that the tarp was put back over the hay stack if I hear it start raining at night....because it costs money.

Normally it's the western riders that don't wear helmets - it's all about cowboys and rodeos, right? Dumb people trying to prove their bravery.
as a western rider, i wear a helmet. but i don't support people who don't wear helmets, especially in rodeos. THATS WHY THEY HAVE BRAKN DAMAGE
As a male equestrian i think im like females😅😂😂
@@Gameriiitoo I think that's a little bit sexist... There's nothing about being like females or not. It's just a safety decision.
I work on the same basis. My helmet is covered in scuff marks from riding under tree branches. Beats having to pick up your hat.
The half sleep “did I leave the gate open” is so real

1:46 I loved how affectionate the horse got with her after a moment 🤗
There was not nearly enough cussing in this video for accuracy 😂
Throwing the flakes of hay is 💯 accurate.
I will name my horses after famous old people because I want them to remain in good shape for many years. I might get a mare called Elizabeth after the Queen.
She will live forever
How cute 😀 You could call her Lilibet as a nickname just like the Queen.....
A moment of silence for the English saddle.
that thing is cooked
The cricket noise fuckin killed me 😆
Admit it. The horse is happier with her. 😅
Yeah, i feel like not showing any sort of affection towards your pet is not a gender thing, it just seems like you don’t like your animal 😂
😂😂😂This is so accurate! Especially the petting the horse part. The man with the quick firm pat! Yes!! 😂❤️ Love your videos!!!
So hilarious !

I think Arthur Morgan falls out of this pattern.😂
The video is more „people who like their animals vs. people who don’t“. 😂 Men who like their pets will talk to them as well and baby them a little.
01:44 Item "Cowboy hat" +100 armor points 😅
I love how the horse responds to each of them as well 😂👌🏼
I’m a man, but I guess I’m feminine the way I treat my animals
Probably not. Empathy isn't just for females.
You might be a Mr.Steady instead of a Mr. Command.
Why as a guy did I relate to the woman part more 😆
I think its just dependant on how soft u are, and girls are usually softer and more caring with animals hahahah
The guy at the end....... snoozing away. 😅

BRO LEFT THE SADDLE 😫😰🥹
Separating the flakes of hay is proper. You can check for any sticks that can hurt a horse. Find beetles inside the hay. Shake out any dust if there. Some bales can contain harmful things.
Tack should be kept indoors.
As a female equestrian... why do I relate to the male equestrian so much if only a bit more affectionate..?
Um, wait has he any idea what saddles cost lately?!??!?
I literally have full conversations with the horses as I brush and it's hilarious❤🐴😅
LOL!!!😆 Sooooo true!!! I also loved the crickets while the man was brushing!!👍
Haha love seeing your dad is your videos!.
The man has quite a cool outfit. Both show your love for the animal in your own way. It seems very well taken care of. Nice short!
😂 this is soo funny and true especially the hay and the pat only omg 😂
As a female wishing I had my own horse (I LOVE them), I know I’d be like Carmella! I rode my uncle’s horses and his attitude with them was same as your dad’s.

The crickets as he groomed 🤣😆😆😂😂
Carmella, you nailed this one. I love your videos. Keep them coming. 😂
I bet the introverts horses enjoy the silence of the male equestrian 😂

only thing I dont agree with is the saddle in the rain. I threw my rain jacket over a saddle and got a cold because of it
As a female rider I can say…I brush my horse in silence
OMG ALWAYS LOVE THESE VIDEOS YOU DO 😅❤
If men could train a horse to shake hands and and say good morning we would.
This was so funny thanks for making & sharing this video
This is funny! Is that your dad? He did great, haha!
I wondered the same thing?
We girls always talking baby talk to the horses ❤
Lol! Loved it Carmella!
'The tack doesn't match the saddle!' I was thinking....what does the horse care about that?!
2:46 the foot caught me off guard
At the risk of exposure may I suggest us newbies tend to baby our horses like the young lady.
Loved this 😂
The man with the saddle 😂
Bo was my horses name lol
Most relatable thing I have seen today 😂😂😂😂
So true! So hilarious! Great job on video!
Yeah, a real horseman🤣
It's absolutely true concerning everything, not only horse breeding point. That is one of the main differences between a man and a woman.
