I wonder if you realize how much enjoyment your videos provide to those of us who live such different lives. You allow us to share your beautiful environment, your lovable four-legged creatures, your hard- working life through sensitive and humorous narrations. A simple "Thank you," just isn't enough but Thank You!
Yes it's another world, so different from all the horses stables I've known here. It's a joy to watch, so lovely, particularly when one lives in a stressful city.
I Love these videos.....The fact you are so interested in their behaviour and enjoy it so much is a testament to your love of horses....Kudos my friend. I am 61 and have just bought a rising 2 year old palamino quarterhorse. I am nervous but the more I focus on him and his behaviour whilst feeding and coming to the gate the more I learn....Thankyou for helping me learn x
I love this! I felt like I was there and enjoyed the leisure break from my day and watching the horses. It makes a good study of horses and their behavior too. They are very curious and spontaneous. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Hey! My 11 month old Puppy LOVES watching this video! We found out that well... She loves horses! She watches this video every DAY on repeat lol! She even stands up on her two back legs to watch more! And her eyes are on the screen the whole time. She just sits there and sometimes lays down watching it. She loves it! Thank you for your content
This sure was fun. Roni sure did charge out a lot. Never knew Springer but he had Roni worried. Miss Peggy; forgotten she and Gracie were "friends". Glad she is beloved and having new adventures. ❤❤
What did you give them to drink 😂😅 What a great herd ! so happy, so full of joy, so interesting to observe. We could stay hours watching their antics 🐎🐎🐎 Gracie, so sweet, flew across the arena when first released ! It is important for their mental to meet, talk and play all together. It stenghtens their bond. Even Zeus briefly crossed the arena trotting fast to escape the coming galloping herd 🐕 Here very hot too, thunderstorms with massive hail bullets devastated the South on Monday (hail stones)
This the first time I've found one of your vids. As a horse-crazy city girl who has never been able to own a horse, I really appreciate your narration and interpretation of all their subtle body moves. Fascinating anf enlightening! Thank you so much.
Man, is Luc simply fantastic. He looks so good in the sunshine. Gracie is so fast with what looks like zero effort. Just gorgeous. Then you have the lovebirds. Lol. Makes your heart smile.
This was a great video to find today with Peggy jumping like that straight up from a roll! ALL 4 feet!! WOW!😲 Amazing for their size to just do that! Gracie still full of pep and fire and spice whether 2yrs ago or today still got it! Neat to see Peggy and Springer from back then. Loved seeing Lena and Gracie synchronized weed munching exact same stance reaching for the good stuff lol
thank you so much for this " day in the life". i can tell you are naturally intuitive and kind and just... thank you for keeping me heart memories truly alive
Well, that was that was a great video to watch all the horses playing out in that little ring head how they interacted with each other, making like the one that was charging the other guy and he turned around and you take off again that was really neat I’m a city boy I don’t get to see a lot of horses. I always like them, I’ll be watching thanks I enjoyed the video a lot first time ever standing like that
One of these days I won't have to say I'm new to your channel. But it's really interesting when one pops up from years ago, like this one. Love seeing the horses from back then!!!
Hi Graeme, wow, look at Gracie go, she's got rockets on her heels, great to see them in the arena, they're going to have fun aren't they, hugs to all x
Having soooo much fun. I love watching them. So many different personalities. Look like I saw him doing belly scratches in the sand. Gracie needs one of those large balls to play with. I love watching horses being horses.
Yes, Luke regularly scratches his tummy in the sand. I did a few livestreams of working with Gracie and a big ball, it's taking her a bit to get used to it and play
There are three, the first she was really scared and by the third session she'd easily nose it around and kick if asked to. It's been a neat process with her
Stable Horse Training I’m watching the May 31 one now. She does pretty good by the end of it. So stressed she’s pooped twice 10:37 minutes. What a good girl. You’re a good draw for her. I will watch the other two after this one.
@ 1:52 and @ 2:00 first time i hear Gracie is talking....more likely saying 'yeepee Peggy is coming!" or she is saying...."come on Peggy let's play together, the sun is shining and the arena is dry"... it is always entertaining to see Gracie and Peggy playing together. i thoroughly enjoyed this clip, thx Graeme for uploading it.
I find it invaluable in learning and picking things up through what is essentially osmosis. I think I understand more intrinsically now more than ever as I watch them for hours. I can't wait until a year from now when I know even more!
What a great way to end a long day....watching one of your videos! I’m always so glad to see you and the horses. Thanks for yet another thoroughly enjoyable glimpse into your life and what you do. I was wondering why Springer stays to himself? Maybe he’s just a loner? lol Hope you and your family have a wonderful day.
It's a good question. He's been known to socialize but struggles a bit more when Mac gets on his case. He's not a fighter but he's a good defender. Otherwise he's quite social with the right crowd. It's very interesting to observe.
Why is poor Ruly on her own ? Peggy is truly an amazing horse she has a beautiful color, beautiful moves, very graceful horse and she looks so calm with you. Love those videos
Luke has it bad for Peggy,he just won't let her out of his sight.Love is truly there . Gracie wants some of the attention ,but Luke only had eyes for Peggy. Lena is her quiet self ,loved Zeus crossing across arena ,look at me ,he is so loveable 🐕🐎🐎 Thanks Graeme 🌹 Enjoyed watching your beautiful 🏇 horses..
Peggy goes airborne! It's so interesting how they always pair up. Luke and Peggy and Roni and Lena. So consistent they are. And Springer is looking really good. He seems more defined than when he first came.
They love the freedom from the arena. They love the direct interaction of seeing their friends again. So funny with Zeus finding a spot to run across the arena, 8:10. Was Springer hogging the water spot? Thanks!
Watching Heartland S10, E18. Georgie lets Ghost go because he will only be happy when he's free and as he ran away I thought of how beautiful horses look when running and decided to look up videos of horses just running and found this video.
Oh my goodness Graeme this is going to be crazy. Babie Gracie acting with her toddler ways. Peggy is training to go to the Olympics. Luke is in his element loving all the woman. Grand ma Lena is trying to get some order in the group. Amazing to watch Graeme. It makes my day. Oh I've forgot to mention Macaroni!!!. You know Graeme I spent quite a few years doing clerical work which. You are so lucky as this is your job and lively hood. I couldn't think of a better way to work. Kindest regards to you and Jen. I always look forward every morning to see what's going on. So I thank you for bringing this to us.
Because I know how expensive horses are, what do you do for a living? How do you manage all of their care? You’re very fortunate to have them, they’re all lovely! I used to be around horses every day and I miss it very much. Thanks for sharing.
I answered in another comment but essentially she's still recovering from an old injury and it tends to flare up when she's pushed around by other horses
gracie feels so much more confident in the herd lol... bounces between the two couples still but not so skittish and more wandering to whoever she wants to visit lol also cant help but laugh at springers bare minimum tail flicks & positioning that completely take the air out of roni's charging balloon lol
I think so too. She's getting along for the most part with a bit of crazy mixed in. I watched Springer closely too and found him "accurate" which I liked. Roni's not a fighter so he knows when a horse has the angle on him.
Though she has the build, gait, and speed for a flyer, Gracie apparently does not - presently - have the mindset of a jumper. If she did, Gracie would not be confined by the arena fence. I am waiting for the day she takes off on one of her runs, and sails over the arena fence at one of the single rail points. The best jumper we had when I was young and competing, we found when it became a regular occurence to find him on the outside of the pasture fencing. He decided the grass was greener on the other side - where the other horses were not feeding and cropping, and over he would go, leaving the rest of the herd behind. I have no doubts there were many times when we didn't catch him, as he let himself back into pasture the same way. No interest in wandering off, he just wanted that delicious, untouched grass........ I'm repeating myself, and am aware if it. But, the real mystery is Luke. You've never said how long ago he was gelded, but Luke often acts as if it was so recent that he's not aware of it, yet [and by 'recent,' I mean under 1 year by at least a few months]. Even stranger, the mares often react to Luke as if they aren't to totally oblivious to the fact he's gelded, which they should know immediately due to Luke's lack of pheromones. It would be enough to drive a breeder to distraction! And no, I was not a breeder, just someone raised on a breeding farm which was a family business - I'd love to go back 60 years to have a conversation with my grandfather to get his 70 years of accumulated knowledge and opinions as to what is going on..... Oh, and I'm firmly with those who hold the opinion that horses can be right dominant or left dominant, the same way humans are right or left handed. I've never heard a reason which fully convinced me how it's determined, though heredity seems to be the best bet, as with other vertebrates, but I heard that opinion demolished by a professor as a biology undergrad almost 50 years ago [the factoids that I never used in my work career still tend to be those I remember clearest, though the Master's I used professionally for 45 years continues to fade away]
I'm not sure when she'll jump the fence either... hopefully never! As for Luke, he's been gelding for a long time, probably by the age of 2. I agree on horses having a dominant side. Sometimes I wonder though if it's influenced by humans...
After I giving my mare a bath to cool her down she would hunt and find a big patch of wet mud and she would roll in it then look at me it was hilarious to watch I miss her R.I.P 😊😊😊😊
Between Gracie's zoomies, Luke's belly rubs, flying farts and Zeus booking it across the arena this is quickly becoming one of my favorite videos on your channel 😂
AAAAA I absolutely love these videos! I've been watching a lot of your content lately and I'm a new sub! So hello! I know this is an older video but ahah gotta catch up 👀 - Gracie is my favorite, chestnut +mare+Arabian is and I'm sold. She's so beautiful 😂and crazy. Was she in heat here?
Roni was just making sure everyone knows he doesn't find it too cool someone rolled over twice. That he can be cool too with his drive byes and not angry charges.
The arena looks great with the new sand.... Washed sand right? Did the delivery truck dump it all in the arena?? How did you spread it all around....and how many yards did you have delivered?
Yes, it's washed sand to get out the river silt. Yes, just dumped it straight in the arena. I spread some of it with the excavator I rented and the horses have done the rest. Not sure how many yards it was, it's measured by weight when they do it by dump truck. Can't recall that either...
Thoroughly enjoyed your video! This was a fascinating look at the equine equivalent of a dog park. Great narration. May I ask where you are located? The surrounding trees plus your pronunciation of certain words suggests central/western Canada or the northern part of those States bordering it.
@@StableHorseTraining Thank you for replying! BTW: Re. the horse that rolls on the ground and then leaps up: I froze the video at the moment where she's totally in the air - unbelievable!
Lovely! Would you ever consider making a video like this again, but with minimal commentary? It's fun to hear your comments and interpretations, but sometimes I just want to hear the animals. :) Thanks!
@@StableHorseTraining question; I am working for Rouge red light therapy, and recently got a question about using red light therapy for horses. When I worked at a large riding stable as a groom (I've spent a lot of time around horses which of course is why when I miss them I look at videos like yours :) they had massage and acupuncture etc so I know that there is a diversity of treatments, was wondering if you have come across anything like red light therapy and what your experience might be..
Oh boy! A friend to play with! Yay!!! Fat and Happy horses! They are in good shape! That sorrel mare, (Gracie?), will be in full heat in nothing flat. A day or two is all she needs, but each mare is different. When she starts squealing she is in full. Hope you have a well bred stud picked out for her to settle her, or your other horses will sure be fired up for awhile. She is presenting, I can remember our brood mares acting the same way in the Spring. We called it, "horsing". Your horses are not as hot blooded as ours were. The older roping horses, geldings, would go half nuts, had you turned them out with a horsing mare like that! You'd think they were teenagers! Haha! We raised working and running (racing), Quarter Horses for over 40 years. My dad and I argued all winter about stallions, their pedigree's, and this year's colts and which mare would have the best ones. Most of them were yearling or 3 yr olds when we sold the geldings. Most were sold to ropers and bulldoggers on the PRCA Circuit. A couple made their ways to the Finals which really pleased us. I sure do miss dad and them horses. I figure there's a couple of my favorites awaiting my return to Paradise. Thinking my dad is up there taking care of them for me, along with his roping horse. We had Joe Hancock and Chicaro (foundation) AQHA based lineage. Blue and Strawberry Roans and Dunn colored colts. Now, I'm almost 70 yrs old and pretty crippled up. Our horses are most likely all gone, but I can pick out that Hancock head and conformation, anywhere! Haven't laid my hands on a horse for a couple decades though... Well, just happened to see this and thought I'd drop in and say, "Hi!" Enjoyed watching your video of the horses. Thanks for posting them, took me back to a much nicer and happier time. God bless all of you!
How does Ruly and Springer get along just the two together for playtime? Lot of fun to watch them all together. Makes me wonder why the boys choose easy mares to be with? Those that are totally opposite of Gracie. 😂 Wonder if they weren’t gelded would there be more a stand taken by Roni to claim her from Luke as Gracie seems always on the fringe of both couples. Gracie and Roni looking really in shape since you’ve been training them more. 👍🏻
2 1/2 years after the fact....is the palomino a quarter horse? Don't even know if you'll see my comment. I showed cutting horses and reigning horses (quarter horses) many years ago as a teenager.
Yes then it worked on your 360 channel also........ tried on another channel in Nova Scotia, maybe my keyboard screwed up as I did spill some beer on it and now use this on screen keyboard thing... but worked there also.... works here now fine...
Horses have to run, it's how they exercise private parts, she's also Arabian, she's wild. Spring time is always great for animals. All I have to say great place them to be. Good looking, great style, always you, making sure.
Exercises they cannot do without disobeying you. Playing with barrels, competition, horse stuff. Their time. The heart ❤, the will, the way is exactly why they play with each other and not you. Big, dangerous, children. They love you, that's why they play and fight together, kick, stomp, snort, roll, kicks , flying tails, the beauty of horse. I can't say it right, they very heart and soul and strength they are blessed 🙏 with. Very few, and you are one that knows it,, sees, changes it with your own self. Your horses, and people are thriving. Always good to know. Beautiful all the way around.
Toot toot toot Roll roll roll. Oh! What fun! So much abandon. Too bad humans can't do the same. (Farting isn't considered polite in humans, horses it's acceptable, even expected).
I'm worried about this no rain thing & it being winter. PLS HAVE A PLAN IF FIRESTORMS COME THIS SUMMER! Was it 2 summers ago, race horses were fleeing fire down the freeway. Those horse now r clocked faster at the track. Guess fire taught them how to run!
I know that this is an older video, but have you ever thought about breeding Gracie ? How exciting would that be ! Might settle her down a little . What a beautiful baby that would be !
The world has far too many horses and far too many breeders and back yard breeders as it is to have a horse for the purpose of beauty, or at all really. There are already too many beautiful horses out there being slaughtered and abused, I'd rather help them than consider the idea of bringing another animal to the planet.
I wonder if you realize how much enjoyment your videos provide to those of us who live such different lives. You allow us to share your beautiful environment, your lovable four-legged creatures, your hard- working life through sensitive and humorous narrations.
A simple "Thank you," just isn't enough but Thank You!
I'm with you, Tina!
For those of us living a different lifestyle, these videos open up a whole other world!
ditto ditto ditto, i was just thinking that, it’s such a breath of fresh air in my life . Lucky horses AND blessed Graeme.
Yes, me too! Love watching!!
Yes it's another world, so different from all the horses stables I've known here. It's a joy to watch, so lovely, particularly when one lives in a stressful city.
@@martineinfrance
Where in France are you, Martine?
Lol I did not expect that first horse to just yeet out of there so fast once you stopped scratching lol
Yup... Sometimes they're a bit crazy
Seeing Peggy jump up into the air and kick her back legs forward, after her roll, was spectacular!
I agree! She's amazing..
I Love these videos.....The fact you are so interested in their behaviour and enjoy it so much is a testament to your love of horses....Kudos my friend. I am 61 and have just bought a rising 2 year old palamino quarterhorse. I am nervous but the more I focus on him and his behaviour whilst feeding and coming to the gate the more I learn....Thankyou for helping me learn x
Thank you! Yes, I watch them so often that I don't get enough done around here... You're welcome for any help I can provide :)
My autistic son loves horses and can watch this video over and over again it calms him down instantly, thank you for providing it.
You're very welcome :) That's amazing to hear, thank you very much for sharing.
I know I’m 3 yrs late, but my brother is autistic and he also loves horses!
I love to watch these beautiful beings. Could watch them for hours! They surely can entertain. Zeus taking his opportunity to run across the arena. 🐴🐎
I love this! I felt like I was there and enjoyed the leisure break from my day and watching the horses. It makes a good study of horses and their behavior too. They are very curious and spontaneous. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I try to do a lot of horse behavior videos for learning purposes and some entertainment of course :)
Hey! My 11 month old Puppy LOVES watching this video! We found out that well... She loves horses! She watches this video every DAY on repeat lol! She even stands up on her two back legs to watch more! And her eyes are on the screen the whole time. She just sits there and sometimes lays down watching it. She loves it! Thank you for your content
Gracie is absolutely Beautiful to watch! When she kicks it into high gear, she FLIES!
I agree, lots of speed and grace
That first horse just *zoomed.* lovely video!
This sure was fun. Roni sure did charge out a lot. Never knew Springer but he had Roni worried. Miss Peggy; forgotten she and Gracie were "friends". Glad she is beloved and having new adventures. ❤❤

Here very hot too, thunderstorms with massive hail bullets devastated the South on Monday (hail stones)
Yes, it's very important for them to have the time to play with others and cogroom etc. Very beneficial to their mental health
@@StableHorseTraining that's why they are so stable, well-balanced horses. 👍
Can Calif borrow some water?
Sure. Calif can borrow some water. God speed.
This the first time I've found one of your vids. As a horse-crazy city girl who has never been able to own a horse, I really appreciate your narration and interpretation of all their subtle body moves. Fascinating anf enlightening! Thank you so much.
Thank you very much :) I appreciate you taking a moment to let me know that.
Lol the first brown girl's tail all perked up 😂 shes so funny
WOW Peggy WOW!!! 0_0 Gymnastics moves indeed!!! I don't know why but I never expect it of her =D
Man, is Luc simply fantastic. He looks so good in the sunshine. Gracie is so fast with what looks like zero effort. Just gorgeous. Then you have the lovebirds. Lol. Makes your heart smile.

This came up on my feed today. How fun! Peggy is beautiful. I loved the show after she rolled!
"Gracie is always in perpetual heat"
Wow, couldn't be truer! I work with a goat at the zoo called Gracie who is also constantly in perpetual heat XD
Hi Graeme, wow, look at Gracie go, she's got rockets on her heels, great to see them in the arena, they're going to have fun aren't they, hugs to all x
She certainly does. I'm pretty sure she's the fastest horse here..
Having soooo much fun. I love watching them. So many different personalities. Look like I saw him doing belly scratches in the sand. Gracie needs one of those large balls to play with. I love watching horses being horses.

That was some pretty cool jumping around she did for sure

It seems that way. Very happy to see Peggy each time, nice to watch.
Wow Gracie! Peggy is a confident mare! Allo Ronni, Lena yes! I love horse observation, helps me so much when it comes to training & ground work
I find it invaluable in learning and picking things up through what is essentially osmosis. I think I understand more intrinsically now more than ever as I watch them for hours. I can't wait until a year from now when I know even more!
They are some happy horses. Love the palomino ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Man, those horses are beautiful! Very sassy and lively.
Your horses are freaking gorgeous and healthy! I'm in love with the palomino omg. Your video made my day!!
Thank you!
this is so beautiful. to see horses having fun and be themselves
❤️💗💓those horses are happy like pet dogs, I love them.💘
Thank you very much!
Beautiful horses. 3 just had to roll n the dirt🤣🤣Dog runs across.

Why is poor Ruly on her own ? Peggy is truly an amazing horse she has a beautiful color, beautiful moves, very graceful horse and she looks so calm with you. Love those videos
She's recovering from an old injury and needs time to heal without other horses pushing her around.
Zeus is so cute 🥰 I could watch these horses all day. So beautiful.
Very interesting to see how they react with each other
"ya give em a whole arena, and they just stay in one dam corner!" XD that is indeed funny XD
Beautiful Palomino horse!
I always wondered where the expression “kick your heels up” came from.
Luke has it bad for Peggy,he just won't let her out of his sight.Love is truly there . Gracie wants some of the attention ,but Luke only had eyes for Peggy. Lena is her quiet self ,loved Zeus crossing across arena ,look at me ,he is so loveable 🐕🐎🐎 Thanks Graeme 🌹 Enjoyed watching your beautiful 🏇 horses..
It's true, Luke really likes to keep Peggy for himself. Interesting to watch
Peggy goes airborne!
It's so interesting how they always pair up. Luke and Peggy and Roni and Lena. So consistent they are. And Springer is looking really good. He seems more defined than when he first came.
Yup, he's getting a bit more built and well formed
They love the freedom from the arena. They love the direct interaction of seeing their friends again. So funny with Zeus finding a spot to run across the arena, 8:10. Was Springer hogging the water spot? Thanks!
I don't know if he was hogging it, or just found it a safe place to hang out.
Well that corner looks pretty interesting. Lol.
This is my dog’s favourite video
That's hilarious! Great to hear though. Some dogs just love watching tv, sounds like yours is one of them
I love Gracie!! Wish I had a horse like her. Or any horse for that matter...
Thank you! She is definitely a favorite around here
I absolutely love your commentaries! So funny.
Thanks!

SO PRETTYY.. i get to ride some horses for the first time for animal therapy in a day or two im really excited, such amazing animals
Horses are the best! I'm sure you'll enjoy your time
You are truly blessed to have such beautiful babies!
Thank you 😊
Love watching your videos!
Oh my goodness Graeme this is going to be crazy. Babie Gracie acting with her toddler ways. Peggy is training to go to the Olympics. Luke is in his element loving all the woman. Grand ma Lena is trying to get some order in the group.
Amazing to watch Graeme. It makes my day. Oh I've forgot to mention Macaroni!!!.

I always look forward every morning to see what's going on.
So I thank you for bringing this to us.
Meant to say I did clerical work which I didn't like
I'm really glad you like it Patricia :)
They are very nice horses! That is also a very nice place for them 🙂🤸
thank you :)
Aw its so cute, i didnt know horses paired like that. Im obssesed with horses really want to have one, rn tho college is first😁
They sure do! It's super common to pair up nicely and hang out together peacefully
Because I know how expensive horses are, what do you do for a living? How do you manage all of their care? You’re very fortunate to have them, they’re all lovely! I used to be around horses every day and I miss it very much. Thanks for sharing.
I train horses for a living :) I manage it by just taking care of them day by day
2023 : Gracie hasn't changed much over the years! How is Peggy today?
Peggy is doing well, she moved away as her owner bought some property though, so I likely won't be seeing her again
@@StableHorseTraining pity, but this is life.. She is a good horsey!
I can’t wait to get my farm 😍😍😍
Found an older video. Peggy has an Arabian nose but her conformation is more rotund. 🌞
She's 100% quarter horse
Gracie is somethin' else😂 I love her personality
It would be interesting to see every horse that's there together during play time
Everybody but Ruley is there. So that's all that can go together.
Why can't ruly go in with them just wondering
I answered in another comment but essentially she's still recovering from an old injury and it tends to flare up when she's pushed around by other horses
Ah ok
gracie feels so much more confident in the herd lol... bounces between the two couples still but not so skittish and more wandering to whoever she wants to visit lol
also cant help but laugh at springers bare minimum tail flicks & positioning that completely take the air out of roni's charging balloon lol
I think so too. She's getting along for the most part with a bit of crazy mixed in. I watched Springer closely too and found him "accurate" which I liked. Roni's not a fighter so he knows when a horse has the angle on him.

Even stranger, the mares often react to Luke as if they aren't to totally oblivious to the fact he's gelded, which they should know immediately due to Luke's lack of pheromones. It would be enough to drive a breeder to distraction! And no, I was not a breeder, just someone raised on a breeding farm which was a family business - I'd love to go back 60 years to have a conversation with my grandfather to get his 70 years of accumulated knowledge and opinions as to what is going on.....
Oh, and I'm firmly with those who hold the opinion that horses can be right dominant or left dominant, the same way humans are right or left handed. I've never heard a reason which fully convinced me how it's determined, though heredity seems to be the best bet, as with other vertebrates, but I heard that opinion demolished by a professor as a biology undergrad almost 50 years ago [the factoids that I never used in my work career still tend to be those I remember clearest, though the Master's I used professionally for 45 years continues to fade away]
I'm not sure when she'll jump the fence either... hopefully never! As for Luke, he's been gelding for a long time, probably by the age of 2. I agree on horses having a dominant side. Sometimes I wonder though if it's influenced by humans...
After I giving my mare a bath to cool her down she would hunt and find a big patch of wet mud and she would roll in it then look at me it was hilarious to watch I miss her R.I.P 😊😊😊😊
I can't even count how many horses I've seen do that! Dog does it too.... drives me nuts :)
@@StableHorseTraining Awwww I know all clean then all dirty 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Between Gracie's zoomies, Luke's belly rubs, flying farts and Zeus booking it across the arena this is quickly becoming one of my favorite videos on your channel 😂
This was a good one for sure. Lots of action!
AAAAA I absolutely love these videos! I've been watching a lot of your content lately and I'm a new sub! So hello! I know this is an older video but ahah gotta catch up 👀 - Gracie is my favorite, chestnut +mare+Arabian is and I'm sold. She's so beautiful 😂and crazy. Was she in heat here?
Thanks for letting me know, and welcome to the channel! It's great to hear you're enjoying your time here :)
Just love your videos😇💙😎‼️‼️‼️‼️
Thank you very much!
Roni was just making sure everyone knows he doesn't find it too cool someone rolled over twice. That he can be cool too with his drive byes and not angry charges.
The arena looks great with the new sand.... Washed sand right?
Did the delivery truck dump it all in the arena?? How did you spread it all around....and how many yards did you have delivered?
Yes, it's washed sand to get out the river silt. Yes, just dumped it straight in the arena. I spread some of it with the excavator I rented and the horses have done the rest. Not sure how many yards it was, it's measured by weight when they do it by dump truck. Can't recall that either...
I love horses
you've come to the right place then, we do too!
Beautiful Arabian!
Thank you!
Haha Peggy has real power in the butt, great movement 👍💪🏽🐎💗
Yes she does! I can't believe how high she jumps sometimes
These horses look so well kept that they almost look like they're fake! So cool
Thank you! I'll take that as a compliment :)
@@StableHorseTraining It was meant to be a compliment haha :)
Thoroughly enjoyed your video! This was a fascinating look at the equine equivalent of a dog park. Great narration. May I ask where you are located? The surrounding trees plus your pronunciation of certain words suggests central/western Canada or the northern part of those States bordering it.
Thank you! Yes, in a way like a dog park :) You're correct, I'm in western Canada in B.C.
@@StableHorseTraining Thank you for replying! BTW: Re. the horse that rolls on the ground and then leaps up: I froze the video at the moment where she's totally in the air - unbelievable!
You're welcome. Yes, she's an amazing horse!
The third one you turned out seemed to have trouble getting up after a roll. Belly scratch'in ?
That's Luke, he likes to scratch his tummy a lot
What was the loud growling noise when you went to get the second horse that made the first horse run back like a bat out of helicopter!?!?.
What is the large board in the middle the arena?
A bridge to practice walking on. It also turns into a teeter totter.
Gracie is full of energy lol
Always!!
Lovely! Would you ever consider making a video like this again, but with minimal commentary? It's fun to hear your comments and interpretations, but sometimes I just want to hear the animals. :) Thanks!
Sure, great idea! I can finally give my voice a break
I seems like every time one of the horses roll, they get up and immediately jump around and go crazy for a bit.
ha... no kidding. They just seem happy I think
@@StableHorseTraining And probably because they got all of their itchies out and feel better after rolling.
You sound a little Canadian lol, beautiful horses! Used to ride all the time miss it so much!
I am in fact Canadian and we're located in Canada :)
@@StableHorseTraining oh no kidding! I am Canadian too :) Yay Canada lol! Where are you? Out West?
Yes, on the west coast 😊
@@StableHorseTraining question; I am working for Rouge red light therapy, and recently got a question about using red light therapy for horses. When I worked at a large riding stable as a groom (I've spent a lot of time around horses which of course is why when I miss them I look at videos like yours :) they had massage and acupuncture etc so I know that there is a diversity of treatments, was wondering if you have come across anything like red light therapy and what your experience might be..
This is my life goal.
❤
Oh boy! A friend to play with! Yay!!! Fat and Happy horses! They are in good shape!
That sorrel mare, (Gracie?), will be in full heat in nothing flat. A day or two is all she needs, but each mare is different. When she starts squealing she is in full. Hope you have a well bred stud picked out for her to settle her, or your other horses will sure be fired up for awhile. She is presenting, I can remember our brood mares acting the same way in the Spring. We called it, "horsing". Your horses are not as hot blooded as ours were. The older roping horses, geldings, would go half nuts, had you turned them out with a horsing mare like that! You'd think they were teenagers! Haha!
We raised working and running (racing), Quarter Horses for over 40 years. My dad and I argued all winter about stallions, their pedigree's, and this year's colts and which mare would have the best ones. Most of them were yearling or 3 yr olds when we sold the geldings. Most were sold to ropers and bulldoggers on the PRCA Circuit. A couple made their ways to the Finals which really pleased us.
I sure do miss dad and them horses. I figure there's a couple of my favorites awaiting my return to Paradise. Thinking my dad is up there taking care of them for me, along with his roping horse.
We had Joe Hancock and Chicaro (foundation) AQHA based lineage. Blue and Strawberry Roans and Dunn colored colts.
Now, I'm almost 70 yrs old and pretty crippled up. Our horses are most likely all gone, but I can pick out that Hancock head and conformation, anywhere! Haven't laid my hands on a horse for a couple decades though...
Well, just happened to see this and thought I'd drop in and say, "Hi!" Enjoyed watching your video of the horses. Thanks for posting them, took me back to a much nicer and happier time. God bless all of you!
How does Ruly and Springer get along just the two together for playtime?
Lot of fun to watch them all together.
Makes me wonder why the boys choose easy mares to be with? Those that are totally opposite of Gracie. 😂 Wonder if they weren’t gelded would there be more a stand taken by Roni to claim her from Luke as Gracie seems always on the fringe of both couples.
Gracie and Roni looking really in shape since you’ve been training them more. 👍🏻
I'm not sure, I haven't put them together. Oddly, I think they'd do well. The two oldest horses here at the moment.
Nobody:
Peggy: *is vertical*
she sure could jump!
They're having a ball! Just curious Graeme, can you spay a female horse, or would you even want to? Love watching this group ❣❣❣❣🌷🌷🌷
Yes you can, but it's not recommended. Expensive and unneeded usually as the stallions are gelded.
2 1/2 years after the fact....is the palomino a quarter horse? Don't even know if you'll see my comment. I showed cutting horses and reigning horses (quarter horses) many years ago as a teenager.
I pay attention to every comment :) Yes, Peggy is a palomino quarter horse.
Weird tried posting yesterday..... wouldn't post..... around 6am BC time......???
I saw it, said testing.
Yes then it worked on your 360 channel also........ tried on another channel in Nova Scotia, maybe my keyboard screwed up as I did spill some beer on it and now use this on screen keyboard thing... but worked there also.... works here now fine...
Cool. Glad it works again despite the beer!
Keyboard still messed up.... your comment posting works now I meant..... maybe spraying something into keyboard? What do you recommend?
If I've ever spilt something on a keyboard, I just take it apart and clean with a damp cloth. Keyboards are super simple to fix
👍
Poor Gracie...but, she does bring a lot of it on herself...
That's true...
Horses have to run, it's how they exercise private parts, she's also Arabian, she's wild. Spring time is always great for animals. All I have to say great place them to be. Good looking, great style, always you, making sure.
I've never heard of a horse exercising private parts due to running. That's a new one!
Exercises they cannot do without disobeying you. Playing with barrels, competition, horse stuff. Their time. The heart ❤, the will, the way is exactly why they play with each other and not you. Big, dangerous, children. They love you, that's why they play and fight together, kick, stomp, snort, roll, kicks , flying tails, the beauty of horse. I can't say it right, they very heart and soul and strength they are blessed 🙏 with. Very few, and you are one that knows it,, sees, changes it with your own self. Your horses, and people are thriving. Always good to know. Beautiful all the way around.
Toot toot toot Roll roll roll. Oh! What fun! So much abandon. Too bad humans can't do the same. (Farting isn't considered polite in humans, horses it's acceptable, even expected).
💖🤗😺😊
I'm worried about this no rain thing & it being winter. PLS HAVE A PLAN IF FIRESTORMS COME THIS SUMMER! Was it 2 summers ago, race horses were fleeing fire down the freeway. Those horse now r clocked faster at the track. Guess fire taught them how to run!
This is an old old video. I wish you the very best in your journeys. May the wind be at your back on the way 😊
💖🐴🇺🇸
I know that this is an older video, but have you ever thought about breeding Gracie ? How exciting would that be ! Might settle her down a little . What a beautiful baby that would be !
The world has far too many horses and far too many breeders and back yard breeders as it is to have a horse for the purpose of beauty, or at all really. There are already too many beautiful horses out there being slaughtered and abused, I'd rather help them than consider the idea of bringing another animal to the planet.
@@StableHorseTraining good reason . thank you
Do you ever ride , your horses I have never seen a video of you ridding
yes ruclips.net/video/3xqmjw9vJpU/видео.html
You realize how weak humans are when you see a 1000 lbs animal jump into the air
ha! good point... She was a crazy jumper and I'm not sure if I could get even 2 feet off the ground and I weigh only 1/5th of that...
