  • I don’t ’clickbait’ - I simply caption our videos as if it was Rudnik talking and strong on the horse-level sarcasm because I KNOW that’s exactly what he was thinking 😂
    (Not that anyone reads the descroptions anyways 😂)
    We had so much fun exploring some of the new trails at Rudniks new barn! We didn’t venture very far and already found so many more trails to explore later on!
    Rudnik is such an amazing boy, and the fact that I’m able to say we did all of our own training (with a little help at the start from a good friend) - but to reach this level of unbothered when exploring completely new terrain - I could not be more proud of this boy!

    It's been decades since I've ridden. At 72 years old, I doubt I'll ever get in the saddle again, but what a treat! Thank you for such a lovely ride! It's clear that you both are well matched. I can see from his head and ear movements, that Rudnik is a happy horsie. he knows he is loved. Thanks again.

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  2 месяца назад +2

      I’ve had him since he was 11 months so I’ve done all his rides and majority of his training (but he’s never been out of my sight during trainings) and so far we’ve never actually had any instances on the trail. He’s surprisingly quite bomb proof over things you’d expect would terrify a horse but the silliest little things (like a tall weed 😂) they just seem to get to him. But even then he’s so quick to recover himself and be ‘oh never mind’ 😂 I just love the head on this boy - he’s so willing and easy going 🥹

    Yep, rabbit, for me. Riding bareback and ended up unconscious on the ground. Took to years to relearn numbers and letters, math and spelling. I was on a horse again six weeks later. Did not do a lot of bareback riding after that. The horse stayed near me; I was out for about six hours. He seemed very concerned. ❤❤

      Oh no! I’m sorry that would have been an awful experience! I’m glad you were still able to ride afterwards, I know there can be a lot of fear and trauma around riding after an incident like that. It’s amazing how our horses will know when we need them to stick around though ♥️

    in other videos I see the horses and other animals running up to the fence like they are afraid the person will get away. Rudnick just clambers along and eventually makes it to the fence. Is that because he is angry at you because he was subjected to new surroundings, or maybe he is just matured out and doesn't need to run to greet you?

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  2 месяца назад +4
