Wow! Thx for this. As we're also animals, I'll keep this in mind when I start to loose patience with others. Wishing you a safe and well day :-)
Amen
So True.
this is beautiful
@madrascal there's always one idiot who fails to see the simple, magical, beautiful things in life. you must be miserable human being.
He’s the introvert who only needs his one friend.
When I first got lexi it took almost a full year before she fully trusted me weve now been together 2 years & although weve had our ups & downs she will NEVER be rehomed I owe her that much she was so scared & neglected when I first got her & now we spend almost every day together wouldnt trade that for anything

Relatable

Haha many introverts can relate to this including me. 😂

Aww cute comment :D
Emma did not try to break Nikko, She did not tame him. She blended with him and earned his love. That is why they can move together as one. Congratulations Emma.
What a beautiful statement. Man, where are my tissues.
And his trust...
No mate... She "Joined Up" with him. That is what the non-violent form of Equine training is called. Breaking is the violent abusive practice of mentally and physically breaking a horses spirit until they are compliant. It starts by not looking at them and just standing there until they choose to follow you like they would the wild herds leader or alpha. No treats, no words, and no eye contact. Too many people see horses as an accessory to their existence.
@@stoggyreturns what does it matter?
@@M.Elizabeth2002 one is informed the other is not.
He's beautiful, and such a heartwarming story. I've said this elsewhere and on my other channel, but I have been afraid of horses all my life (I'm 52) until my wife decided to fulfill her lifelong dream of getting her horse. He's an old guy, and we bought him from some people who had rescued him from an awful situation. He was just one skinny, malnourished, clearly abused horse out of about 30 or so. I hear tell the woman who abused him said "Well, I feed my good horses." I will make her pay for that if I ever meet her.
Anyhow, though he isn't exactly what we would have chosen, we both felt we had to take him even if he wasn't the ideal animal for her. The day they brought him home, I met my wife where we are boarding him to support her, even though I didn't want to be within 10 feet of him. However, they needed to look him over and clean him up after a long day of travel, so I plucked up what little courage I had and held his lead. While I'm standing there, he looks me in the eye and proceeds to lay his head on my chest like it was the first kindness he'd had in a long time. I don't know how it happened, but I fell in love with him on the spot, and wouldn't you know it, I'm not afraid anymore. He's my buddy, and he knows I've got treats in my pocket 😆
I don't know what he saw, but he's changed my life. I want to care for horses in need for the rest of my life, even if it's only one at a time. They are beautiful and wonderful souls. Their capacity for love and forgiveness is proof of that.
I love your story!
So wonderful to hear! Thank you both for saving him ❤️
Soul mates... What an AWESOME story!!!
What a beautiful story. I’m so happy you both found a new love in each other. May you all be well.
Thank you. He knew you needed him and that you possessed a loving heart.
Mikko sure is one of the fortunate ones. Thank you to the woman who saved him...twice 💞
Omg I know twins named Darla and Dawn and they kind of look like you but Darla has a more goofy smile and she sticks her teeth out and Dawn always gets stupid looking boy haircuts.

Horses are incredibly smart. He remembers the first act of kindness. He was meant to be with Emma
No, he was meant to be free.
@@shaleyvale272 where do you think domestic horses started?? We have been domesticating horses for centuries. Starting with the Native Americans.
@@thatsmalltowngirl4Obviously. All beings were originally free.
@Shaley Vale
Horses became extinct from North America ~10k years ago. The wild horses we have now come from domesticated horses-they are feral, but not wild. They aren’t meant to be free any more than a homeless dog or cat is. You can argue the morality of domestication if you want, but it doesn’t change the fact that they are in fact domesticated creatures now who don’t need to be-or even should be in some cases-free to thrive.
Also, just a note, the Native Americans weren’t the first here to domesticate horses. Horses were first reintroduced to the continent by European settlers, starting with the Spanish.
@@kaseywright2339 👍👍👏👏👏
Wonderful work that she did with Mikko. Seeing the picture at 2:26 it's pretty obvious that the trainers just wanted to forcefully break Mikko into compliance. Emma was patient, understanding and loving, and that's the true horsemanship.
YES, DEEPLY AGREE.
That's a stock photo, not the actual horse in this video.
What an amazing story about love, patience, understanding and perseverance. Thank you Emma.
I'm 44 now, and I was in a foster home at age 11 and it was a horse farm. There was a yearling they brought in named Cubie and she wouldn't let anyone near her. I fed all the horses twice a day every day, water and hay. I would put several horses in stalls to feed them grain, while I put their hay out and fill their water troughs. But I would let Cubie stay loose and she would follow me wherever I went and watch what I do. So I always had a pocket full of grains just for her. She would eat from my hands which was surprising, so I just gradually got closer and closer to her every day and was finally able to touch her and then we were like best friends. Nobody else could even get within 10 feet of her without her running. But I was sent away to another foster home less than a year later. I was promised they would keep her, but I found out she was sold, and I have never seen her again. She was beautiful. Red coat, red main,with a white streak down her face, one brown eye, and one blue eye. I'll never forget her. She taught me more love than anything I could have taught her.
I'm sorry for your and Cubie's loss of each other. I know she missed you as much as you missed her, only she could never understand why. This story made me weep. You were an angel to her while you could.
Cynthia. I am so sorry. God loves you and He loves Cubie. That horse is in Heaven and she remembers you and loves you. Every instinct that I have wants nothing more than to take away the hurt you had to have suffered. As a human being, I can do little. God can reunite you with your horse though. Accept the sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross for your sins. Invite Him to be your Savior. That’s all there is to it. You will be with Cubie again when it’s time to go home and you will never have to say good bye again. Please think about what I said. God bless and keep you and heal your hurt.🙏🏻❤️
Awww
Cubie's job was done with you when she taught you real love, now she had to go teach someone else. May she have lived a long and healthy life.
🥺🥺🥺🥺
He's so gentle and aware of his energy with that kid.
yup, thats a horse that has defeated men being careful not to tug on the kid.
@@nsfw6110 what do u mean
@@UnrealObject I think that means that the horse has been too tough to handle for men, but he's being very careful with the child because he cares about him/her.
@@UnrealObject what is English your second language?
@@nsfw6110 Even if it is, so what. Be nice.
I don't think people realize how big their hearts are, you cannot trade them out like an old pair of shoes.
Love helps animals just as much as medicine.
When my Shih-tzu was a puppy, the vet said he had a kidney defect and wouldn't live over 3-4 years. I gave him the best life i could. My roommates helped care for him, the neighbor's son walked him when i was at work. My friends all were great with him. Even my family welcomed him with open arms.
He made it to his 6th birthday.
Love truly helps.
I can’t imagine how terrifying it must have been for him to one day just wake up and not find your person around you for comfort. This made me cry.
I know I was like balling when she found him again, my heart legit dropped when he was sold.!!
Couldn't have said it any better - totally agree! I cried too. 💖🐴💖😇
She was only visiting once per week.
@@pattygould8240 Well, just because I didn't see my Grandparents every week does not take away from a strong and loving bond. I miss them still even though they've been gone for years now. In the past when I still had dogs and had to board them while traveling for weeks at a time, that did not make us forget one another. They'd try to leap into my arms and kiss me. Etc. One can form a strong bond of love with people, pets and animals and such a bond always remains in the heart. Animals and kids especially deeply feel and know it when they are given unconditional love. It is both rare and wonderful in this world. I hope you can experience this one day - wishing it for all others too. This beautiful horse sensed total acceptance, safety and love with this young lady. Horses are deeply feeling and sensitive creatures and have been known to remember those who have been kind and those who have not.
Why didn't she bring him home the first time? No one told her where he went? Glad they eventually found each other.
My mother had a horse that she would walk all the way to the beach with no bridle or saddle. She would ride him that way as well. They would spend hours on trails and even swimming in the ocean. They had a bond like no other. When I was around 2 she put me on him and he ever so carefully walked, step by step, slowly. He fully understood. Horses are amazing. Animals are amazing. Humans are amazing too. 💕
Yes.....
Some of us humans are cruel.....
But they don't see the reality.....
That is why they don't care or understand 😞
That's a very special horse your mother had. Thx for sharing 🌞
My first large pony/horse allowed me to do that.
I had no idea for years how special that was
Yes animals are amazingly intelligent I can't imagine the world without them
@@soookimbo6571 Most always, horses are very gentle around small children. I grew up with horses as have all 4 of my daughters.

She found the horse she'd been parted from for two years, then trained him when he'd let no one else try. Disney princess confirmed

@@StarWarsomania totally shouldn't.

Why do people feel the need to describe the video we can all see
My mother always told us, if a child or animal doesn't like someone, watch out, there's somethong wrong with them, they are not nice people. Over the years I have seen she was right.
That is spot on! If my dog won’t come near you, then there’s something wrong with you.
I used to live in a trailer park and this one guy around my age came over one time. I never liked him but long story short, my cat was scared to go near him. Not long after that, found out he was a dog fighter who inbred pitties and abused them to the brink of death, would let them chase people around the park off-leash, and I was warned by a cat-loving friend at the time to keep him away from my kitty because he said to her once, that if a cat got in his way around his feet and tripped him he'd kill it. :/ Never let him near again. I've seen those poor dogs. Watched a puppy he had go from a sweet little thing to a violent, malnourished creature that was set on attacking everything around it. And the little county I was in didn't care; animal control wouldn't do anything, even with evidence, they wouldn't take action against him and his degenerate family. It's been a year since I left, no clue what's going on by now. I have to be honest, I rarely think this way but I hope their dogs turn on them. I just hope they don't turn on the 3 or 4 little toddlers they have.
Hitlers dog liked him, i think your right so now i know I was right along.
@@slimothyjames4577 omg that sounds so awful. I really hope he gets legal action taken against him. The poor pitties!! I hope they find help and loving families
Unless its a chihuahua...
Watched this again to soften my old heart. Great job Emma.
This literally made me cry. Anyone who has fallen in love with a horse knows how beautiful this kind of relationship is.
I personally think the only reason Mikko trusted her and remembered her. Is because she's the first person to show him any kindness. Animals remember kind people. They remember them because they were nice to them.
My fish forget me every single day. Begging for food at night, terrified again in the morning. Ungrateful little fuckers 🙄
@@c_n_b it's not their fault, many fish are this way by nature

He looks like he is filled with love when Emma holds and comforts him. Animals know kind-hearted people.
No they don’t... Whenever i see someone post this i have to point out that hitler and his dogs had a “special bond”. That way of thinking also put my friend into a bad situation with her boyfriend at the time. Animals just like certain people, if they feed them, show them affection, don’t hurt or scare them, that doesn’t mean they are “kind hearted”. There are plenty of assholes on this planet who are terrible people but love animals.
Not really. Animals can like anyone who show them kindness and can pick anyone they like. Even if people are kind-hearted, they still might not pick them. They can choose anyone, even bad people, if they trust or love them.
@@ericaallisonc Animals are smart enough to know when a person hates them. You have to be pretty ignorant not to know that. It is true that animals DO know kind people who love them. My late mother's cat loved to be with me because I was kind to him and I loved him. He hated my brother because he knew that my brother hates cats. He didn't want to be anywhere near my brother.
@@lynettepalecek3141 your brother sounds like a dumbass.
@@ericaallisonc yeah I’m pretty sure since were technically animals no one would need a special bond with you :)
Animals know who love them and care about their well-being. Probably smarter than a lot of humans. Well done, Emma !
It's plain to see how much love animals have to offer. To see the bonds of friendship and trust. You just have to show them they can care. ALL animals have this.
Hello Debby how’s the weather over there
My mother lived on a farm in the early 1900s. She had a horse named Nelly and her father sold nelly to a street vendor who collected rags. My Mother hadn't seen Nelly for more than ten years but when they met it was like a family reunion. They both recognized each other instantly like no time had passed.
That's beautiful.
Beautiful story!
The horse probably remembered her scent.
Only someone who loves animals would go thru this much trouble. Did this with a stray homeless dog years ago who bit everyone but me. I kept her until she died of old age.
May she rest in peace and may the memory of her bring you joy an tranquility. I'm glad that you had/have each other.
God bless you.
Wow. God bless you. Hope you will keep helping others too.
You're a good person.
I did this with a cat who was out in the cold, heat and rain here in California. Just waiting for the glass door to open till one day I did. Guess he is now home.
if only everyone could adopt life like this. We'd be in a better place.
Animals are just like humans we all need to be loved

Animals have feelings, they have memories, they remember everything they've been through, good or bad, human beings need to recognize that, not treat them as things
When humans are disconnected from their own Hearts they are unable to fully connect with animals and nature. This I feel and believe. Our True Nature is Love and it always lives in our Hearts. God Bless Everyone.
Good job.
@Sydney J. Yes indeed. That has been my life experience so far when being involved with or having family members who are narcissists.

When I was growing up I nagged my dad everyday to get me a golden Palomino. Never happened. He was always napping and he'd wake up and I bug him. I have a barn and now I don't want a horse since I got a car :( but this story is amazing.
I had a horse once, just like that. I saved his life, and he saved mine. ❤
Emma's actually asking Mikko if its OK and waiting for him to say yes.
Not forcing him if he says no.
That's the big difference.
I'm so so glad that she found him again.
It broke my heart when he just disappeared.
I can’t watch these videos anymore. Everyone on the bus automatically thinks I’m a lunatic when I begin weeping uncontrollably...
Are you me🤣
you are in good company, no matter where you are....I cry at all of them.
the way I see it, you have two options to deal with that:
1. Ignore them. Who the f*** CARES what they think. Plus, I'll bet at least half of them would cry at the same thing, and that's perfectly okay.
2. Show all of the judgemental ones the video. This kinda plays in to what I said above. If they realize this is an appropriate response, they'll leave you alone.
This wasn't a tear jerker til the little boy walked Miko. Miko is looking at the boy like "where is he? He's so small, I don't want to hurt him." The sweetest moment ever!

@@free2rhyme29100 bro they're being sentimental stfu
damn.. this almost made me tear up, my grandma used to own a pregnant mare. that mare gave birth to a gorgeous little foal. that foal was born literally the same day and year as me. unfortunately my grandma had to sell both of them when i was around ten years old. back then i wasn’t much into horses, but now horses are literally my life. my grandma said that she sold the foal to a riding facility like 5 cities away but never gave me any names. i’m now 15, still looking for the barn where he would be at. i saw pictures of him on some website where all horses are registered, he was 7 yo in that photo. all tacked up. it made my cry, that could’ve been me if the horse wasn’t sold.
I feel like there should be some kind of paper trail left behind? Like, the facility had to have given some sort of receipt and have some sort of record on file, such that if you were to mass email all the facilities that might match up with where you think he might have been, that one of them would be able to dig up your grandmother's name since you have a good time frame to give and say 'ah, right, this guy. We've sold him to so-and-so.' and you'd be able to move forwards from there.
Although judging from what I've seen of these horse reunion videos, paper trails with names and time frames are nonexistent.
That being said, I sincerely hope that one day you find him.
Some times when we are not ready for love, the opportunity does.
"... this almost made me tear up" "Almost"? Good for you, I'm a wreck after watching it!
May Allah make it very very very EASY for you to reunite with the Horse.
Ameen Ya Rabbul Aalameen.
@eeveri, since you know horses I was wondering this whole video- that distinctive marking he has on his neck, do you think that it was something he was born with, or it’s a brand or something?
This video brought happy tears to my heart. I have always believed that there are no problem horses, only problem riders. And Emma’s love and patience with Nikko created such a powerful bond full of trust and love that they can cherish forever. 💗

No doubt about it.. we don’t even need to meet Emma in person to KNOW she has a beautiful heart - Mikko confirmed it for us 💕
A beautiful heart doesn't exploit horses by riding them.

Beautiful horse! Beautiful story Emma! God bless our animals!
4:05 “He’s walking!” Little boy with Mikko! Mikko is so gentle with him and knows he’s special like Emma!
There are two ways of taming a horse: With kindness or with cruelty. Kindness is always the best option! This is the proof.
I would like to correct you.
There was only 1 way to tame a horse. With cruelty the horses never really tame. It doesn't matter what kind of an animal you're trying to control or tame.
When a bond of trust is created the results are the most rewarding. Having raised Arabian horses and Chow Chow dogs during my 72 years of life I've learned some of the best approaches to training.
You first have to have that bond of trust.
Horses don’t need taming

Angels walk among us.Thank you for saving Mikko
He's a keeper.
He knew that he could trust her, animals know who are kind to them.
Shes a child. Look up children and horses. Its literally the horse thought he saved her until he was abandoned by her.
@@hospitalcakewalk That girl didn’t know where he was, she did not abandon him. He was just sold without her knowing but what do I know I’m just a random person on the internet
Heaven only knows what that poor horse has been through before meeting this kind person.
before and between
This one makes me cry. Such a heart warming story.
Animals need us, and we need them!
The bond with a good horse can only be experienced, never truly described.
Wow. You just described it! Thank you, must steal this.
@@NavvyMom Thank you NavvyMom for your nice reply. Terribly sorry for the late response.
Horses are such majestic animals. I'm glad these two were re-united in the end.
🙌
This just made me pour tears 🥹🥹
That woman is a hero!
he not only loves his girl, but her offspring too. ANY parts of her, he loves. this is so beautiful!!!!!
Iv always trained my dogs this way, slowly and with mutual respect. Yes it’s quicker to train them by making them fear you but when an animal does something you want out of respect and love rather than because they fear the consequences of not doing it the relationship is happier and everyone wins.
just like parenting.
@@jeelam590 Exactly. That's why i hate parents who beat their children up.
I've had several dogs and I have never, ever hit one of them. I didn't force them to do things they were afraid of, didn't take things away from them, didn't even shout at them. I just never had any need or desire to do so. Yes that sometimes meant things would take longer or that I would have to change my plans but there always was a deep level of mutual trust. If they were misbehaving I'd just tap them on the side with two fingers and say "Hey, don't do that." My last dog was extremely good at reading body language and facial expressions (yes, dogs really can do that) and with her I'd just have to raise a finger. Conversely I could often tell what she wanted just from the way she was standing, position of her ears and tail, etc. People also say you shouldn't put your hand in your dogs feeding bowl when they're eating but if I did that, they'd just sniff my hand to see what I was putting in. If your dog really trusts you it's perfectly alright to do that sort of thing. People who think their dog should fear them will never develop such a deep bond and as a result miss out on so many of those beautiful little things.
@@JC130676 my little doggo Tamashi is the sweetest thing ever. She's so obedient and respectful and I've never ever hit her. The closest thing to hitting her was giving her a pat on the head whenever she did something dangerous, but nothing more. She understood and stopped doing dangerous stuff (like crossing the road on her own).
@@JC130676 I’ve never had a dog I wasn’t able to take food right from their mouth.
Even a badly abused rescue I saved, finally learned after almost a year, I meant him no harm.
You should be able to take their bowl away w/o issue.
Although I know many dogs do have food aggression. Which is too bad.
I know more than a few that were put down, b/c kids went for their bowls when they were eating, or when food was in it & they lunged to stop the child from what they thought would be taking it.
That’s all it takes, to take a poor dogs life. That’s the owners fault. :/
So glad she found him again and they can be together now 💕
Faith love and trust are powerful things .
Like my late mother used to say "animals can't speak but can feel everything and anything"
Hats off and love to all those around the world who care for animals ❤
Your mother sounds like a very wise lady. I'm sorry for your loss. The world needs more people like your mother.
@@scottishastronomer indeed we do need loads more
they do speak as they have their own languages we don't understand. often. sometimes it is non verbal. good horses people are learning this type of communication in their quest to improve their relationships and training of their horses.
@@Ganpignanus thas so true
People like this change the world with small gifts of love.
Mikko with the baby melted my heart 🥹❤️
This is beautiful. She was his person.
Him walking with the child...damn, that touched my heart
That's pure love and trust right there.
That is a stunning horse! I’m so glad she found him.
My horses all have a loving home for life. I found my first horse, Marti, in 1964. Had to board her because we had no land...I was 14 years old...she had a rough history, and after we had her for several months, found out she was pregnant! She behaved like Mikko...always thrilled to see me, and followed me every where. We had to move to another boarding stable, but she adjusted fine. One day in August Sunni was born. She was 3/4 Arabian and absolutely adorable. After two more boarding stable moves, I achieved one of my dreams...purchased my own farm, and it was strange that it was less than a mile for where they were boarded! I was also able to grow my own hay, raise some sweet pet turkeys and geese and I totally loved the place. Marti was 4 when we found her. She lived to age 35. Sunni lived to be 30. They are both buried under glacial boulders. I have since moved to New Mexico on a small ranch, and it is pure horse heaven. Of course my two Arabians, who I found after losing Marti and Sunni, came with us, and are wonderful. If you have the means to rescue a Mustang, or any horse, .PLEASE DO IT! They need love and care, and will be a faithful friend for life!
Reading this made my eyes well up. Beautiful.
We need more people like this in the world.
Then strive to be like this yourself too
Yes, but why do we have to "dominate" the creature and make it allow us to ride it?
@@Injudiciously That's what I was thinking.
@@Injudiciously This isn't dominating. Most horses love helping you. I mean it is unnecessary but still...
@@Injudiciously we could sign a petition the government should be taking these beautiful free wild horses off the land. The government works for us this should be completely illegal.
Lucky Mikko that you found him and are giving him a safe and happy life. So beautiful to see your little child leading him. Mikko is a special horse and good on Emma for training him herself. She knew what Mikko needed and her patience has paid off. What a lovely horse she has saved.
Aww, Mikko and Emma and little Brian made me tear up. Wonderful story ❤
I did horse therapy for PTSD through the VA. It helped me so much. This is a wonderful story! Thank you
It is a wonderful story.
please tell more ! and....what is the VA ?
@@YetiintheSun
Veterans Administration
@@YetiintheSun I'm pretty sure it's short for Veterans Association. It's an organization for combat veterans to help deal with trauma and PTSD, I think.
@@Laura-tp8wz so this is a program only for veterans? In what city/town?
