WILL MY NEW MARE GET ALONG WITH THE HERD?!

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Hey Horse Lovers! We were hit with SO much snow over the weekend! Today we are going to see how Belle integrates with the herd! Will she be the Boss Mare? Will she get along with the other horses? Watch to see how I integrate and do my best to give her a smooth transition. Here is a little background: Belle of the Ball is a 7 year old Dapple Grey, Percheron X (we think Andalusian too) who is just under 16.2hh. I bought her at an auction a little over two weeks ago and TODAY we begin her training. In this video you will get to see her meet the herd and acclimate. You will also get to spend this winter day with us at Free Spirit Farm and as a BONUS you will get to see my FIRST LIBERTY Session with Buzz Lightyear! IF YOU ENJOY MY CONTENT SUBSCRIBE!

I'm with you on keeping horses out as much as possible. They are outdoor animals. They would rather be outside grazing with their buddies in inclement weather than in a barn. We have a barn but prefer large pastures with run-in sheds they can use if they wish - which they never do. Always feel sorry for the expensive dressage/event horses you see standing in stalls under sheets/blankets from ears to rump 24/7/365, bell boots, leg wraps on all four, ear bonnets on if they ever step outside. They are put into small corrals so they can't run around and hurt themselves (?). Then they wonder why the horses are crazy and flip out over everything? Yeeesh. Let them be horses, people!
Yes OMG everything you said is exactly how I feel!
@@freespiritequestrian Oddly enough, you know the super expensive Thoroughbred stallions worth tens of hundreds of millions of bucks? They mostly live outside in large paddocks. They are only brought into the barns for grooming, feeding or in the event of dangerous weather. Otherwise they are outside with cameras to monitor them. I've seen these incredibly expensive studs in the winter, shaggy as bears because they are roughing it in the open. Same with the mares. That's a good life for a horse.

Could not agree with you more! Just purchased my dressage horse in August this year. She as 6 year old that has never been in the pasture grazing with other horses before in her life. I’m of a firm believer that a horse must be a horse to be happy and productive. She loves being with the rest of the herd (6). Still does silly things that gets weird looks from the other horses, but she’s happy and much more willing to work.
Yup I agree too. It's where they should be and bad weather bringing them in is smart so their protected and warm from the elements. Great job!
When I saw Belle running free by herself in the paddock in the snow....it brought tears to my eyes. One word: Freedom. :)
I love this so much 💖
I just came back to see Belle again. I had forgotten how beautiful she is when she runs. She takes my breath away.
❤️❤️❤️
Buzz sure listens and stays focused. What a little gem.
I love that you’d rather let your horses enjoy their freedom roaming a paddock rather then standing in a stall all day, tons of people don’t do that and it’s truely a blessing to see. They are definitely living their best lives! I don’t think I’ll ever stop watching your videos. You’re incredible and i just want you to know that! god bless :)
Awesome!!!!
I agree! I look forward to the videos.
Belle frolicking across the new snow was simply breathtaking. She looked magnificent. So glad she adapted.into the herd so well. Buzz is so cute. He has changed a lot since you got him.
Thank you so much!
Super impressed with buzz and his groundwork, he’s so smart with even your communication to switch from trot to canter to walk, AmaZing, he’s a superstar 🌟
Thank you! I’m so proud of him.
I think Belle is embodiment of what would be caled Ambler/Palfrey in medieval times. Elegant-looking, mild-mannered horse with smooth gait. She is running so smoothly.
She is so beautiful & moves so effortlessly she looks like she is floating when she trots & gallops. Looks like she definitely won't take any crap either!! Good for her, she stands up for herself!! Love you, BELLE!!!💜
Agreed!!
I noticed that Gaston has improved with his confirmation under your training and continuing. I appreciate that you keep the horses until they grow to be the best they can be! Congrats.
Thank you!!! That’s an awesome compliment 💖.
Really impressed with the progress that Buzz has made since he’s been with you at Free Spirit. He is one smart little dude and will make some youngster their dream pony.
Thank you!
Marvelous voice control and you only have to do it once!…..I wish I were you…all that space for their freedom and still have separation room if needed! I am 77 now and still love these @nimals…..ahhhh…. To have an indoor ring!!…you are blessed!! Don’t mind my iPad….. it messes up every day!!…thanks for sharing!!……Cute!!
I love watching Belle run, she's very muscular yet beautiful. There's a saying , There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a human!
I so agree!
Gates and everything SO expensive!!! We have a system that helps in Youngstown Ohio Pittsburgh pa area. We buy gift cards from giant eagle grocery stores. Get gas points and buy feed etc w gift card. Home Depot for barn item. Also surplus stores w excess stuff, i. e. Windows, tubs shelving. Any cash saved helps. Love your farm and every animal on it!!! Piggy and puppy too!😄
Forgot tractor supply gift cards help rack up gas money!!!
That's what I was thinking too, she's big and muscular and deep chested. There's some native Appaloosa in her with that broad nasal arch and stockier muscled legs.
Yessssss!!!
I am truly impressed with Buzz’s progress! Obviously he has bonded with you! All of your horses look to you for leadership. I love your videos, keep them coming!
Thank you so much!
You’re honestly so good at working with horses, look at how buzz is listening to you❤️
Oh thank you!
Buzz is so special. I love that pony!!!
Watching Belle run in the snow reminded me of the cartoon "Spirit". Her dark mane and stockings look so much like the horse in the movie.
So glad Belle got along with everyone. So proud of how Buzz did on his first time doing liberty. He's so smart and willing!
Thank you! I’m so proud 💖
I really like Buzz. He moves like a warmblood. Lol. I'd LOVE to peer into his genetics❤
She is absolutely gorgeous! Especially in the snow! I'm so happy for you that you got her!
I’m so thankful for her!
Watching her trot and run through the snow looks like something you’d see in a movie or in the wild!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love it!!
Belle looks so happy while prancing through the fresh snow. She’s a beauty! I’m loving seeing how well little Buzz is doing too ❤. It just goes to show how horses are capable of sensing who they can trust. Great job Shea! 😊🐎
They truly are 💖
Our horses were free to run in and out. In cold weather, they would gallop to warm up. To call them, I would whistle and they would gallop home and enter their stalls. I miss them all.
Belle looks so beautiful in the snow! All horses do!❤❤❤
I love the videos where you introduse the horsrs to the herd! ❤💘
Glad you like them!
I find myself smiling ear to ear during every one of your videos! You clearly are an amazing horsewoman! I love your independent nature and sense of self. Thank you for sharing!
Wow, thank you!
I agree. Videos from your farm make my day!!!
Buzz did amazing today. Your hard work shows. Belle did well mixing with the herd. Enjoy them both.
Buzzy bee is such a cute and smart pony...he has come a long way. You do such good work with your horses Shay. I'm glad Belle is getting along well with the herd 👍
Thank you so much! I’m glad too 😊
Shea, your are an amazing horse trainer. They all love and respect you. Oh my , that gait was truly a handful to get installed
Loved the video on Buzz, he is a wonderful pony. Belle is going to be wonderful at anything she is trained for in the equestrian world. I loved the snow shots of the barn and paddocks.
I love your comment! Thanks for your support 💖
Fabulous Training with Buzz. He's very smart and he listens well. Just goes to show that treating a pony like a true "little horse" and not just a stuffed animal gets the most out of them and makes them a stellar companion. Belle is sooo pretty moving out in the pasture. I'm sure with a little more ground work her muscles will develop more and she'll even show more of her lovely conformation.
You’re 100% correct!
Totally agree with you on the 24-7 turnout and have stall experience in case needed. What a darling Belle is, you sure found a gem!
Glad Belle's getting along with the herd. Buzz is coming along great. I love seeing all the horses. I love them all to much to have a favorite. ❤😊
Wow! Wow! Wow! Belle running in the snow looked like a movie shot - so beautiful
❤️❤️❤️
Belle is such a beautiful, healthy Momma❤
I love seeing the horses run in the pasture.
They are absolutely beautiful
Nettie
I am so proud of you the dedication you put into these horses 🐎 is brilliant love your channel xxxx
Thank you so much!
I just love the way she moves. I know she's a crossbred but sometimes she looks like an andalusian horse. Loveeee her!!!! Loved the video, Shae!!
We think Andalusian is her other half 💖.
Hello.
I'm a 58 ole cowgirl and cross bred horses are my all time favs ❤💚💙
Wow I’m totally amazed by how he understands voice commands and does what he’s asked, especially since he’s not restrained!
Belle looks positively majestic in the snow, she's one classy mare for sure... ❄️ .....Buzz is so responsive, he really has come on in leaps and bounds...keep warm, Winter isn't quite done with us yet!...🐎
You’re right! Not quite haha.
Aww Bell looked amazing in the snow and how good was little buzz. You do a great job with them.
Crazy puppy. Having WAY TOO MUCH FUN RUNNING AROUND IN THE SNOW!!
The way you teach youre horses is just amazing how they can walk,trot and canter without the lunge is just awesome. Love your channel.💖
Thank you so much!
So beautiful, watching them meet Belle and then run off and play. Nothing's better, than happy horses. I loved it!
It is heartwarming to see a horse that could potensialy ended up at a slaughterhouse go on and have their best lives. Thank you for saving her and may you and Belle go on and have many more years of friendship ahead.
Belle is so gorgeous! I love your videos so much and i love what you do. I totally agree on keeping your horses out as much as you can. They need freedom and play time. I resantly lost my 34 year old paint gelding and watching your videos makes me smile. You are amazing equestrian and i can't wait to watch more videos!
I totally agree!
Fences/gates usually need repair when it’s raining or freezing. That’s what my partner noticed🤣. But it needs to be done so we get out and do it. Those heavy duty gates should last a lot longer. I love your philosophy on stalls, great to have when you need them, but best to have the horses out as much as possible. 👍🐴. Belle is such a gem❤️🐴❤️
And Buzzy Bee did SO well. You are bringing out the best in him.⭐️
Thank you!!! Yes the darn gates haha. Oh well I’m glad they are installed now 💖.
Husband and wife are really a great team, I just watched them at auction for Bell.
Thank you!
Buzz did a great job . He is learning so fast amazing job Shae .. cant wait to see more with mr buzz...😊 Love seeing Ms. Belle out with the other horses was beautiful to see . Loved watching the horse's playing in the snow was so beautiful to see .. Ty for sharing your video's with all of us...😁
More to come!
I just started watching you and decided to start at the beginning of Belles videos. What a true Gem you have there. Watching her prance and run is beautiful. What a beautiful stepper she is. Congratulations, you and she are so lucky to have found one another. A gift from God.
Aww little Buzz is so well behaved and is so attuned to your commands, he has come such a long way “Perfect”! Such a star 🤩🐎
I love your videos. I am 65 and all my life I have had horses and now I can no longer care or ride them. It breaks my heart but watching your videos makes it better. Keep sending the awesome videos. Belle is so beautiful.
Thank you! So sorry you can’t ride though :(.
Belle doing so good with all the other horses!! I knew she would since she’s such a sweet girl!! I love seeing all the horses running together in the big pasture, so beautiful!!
Thank you so much!!
I am OBSESSED with Belle! She seems to be so smart, curious and kind! Not to mention she is the most gorgeous horse, I have ever seen! 😍🤩❤️
I could cry! 😭😍
Ok Buzz Lightyear is the smartest pony I've seen 😂 Your training is amazing!!!!
Isn’t he funny? Haha thanks!
I love Belle. She is exactly that type of horse I wish to own in the future, especially in appearance ( though I prefer bay horses ).
Belle is so gorgeous. I can imagine her doing well in dressage. She just floats.
Yes!
Glad they are all getting along. I'm just so amazed at Buzz's progress understanding work commands. Your an amazing trainer. Horse/pony Whisperer
Awww thank you 😊
This is such a happy video! It's amazing to see your work with Buzz. Also, Mushu is a little attention hog, but he earns the attention by being so cute!
Buzz is sooo cute! His little face looking up through the stall grate to greet you is precious. Miss Belle watches you more than she watches the other horses. Your are her alpha "mare" and she wants to have you stay that way without competition from the others for your attention. The others know this, so expect some competition among them over you. Kyle is such a great helper. Nice to have strength when needed, such as opening the barn door when it's stuck. I wonder how the horses view him. I'd bet them place him in the hierarchy as being the second human, you being the first because you directly handle and take care of them while he supports you. The "herd" is bigger than just the horses.
Lol this comment is awesome! The horses like Kyle but we all know who the apple of their eye is 😂😂😂🍎🍎.
I cannot tell you how much I enjoy you, your hubby, your horses/ponies, your adorable dog.....just everything! I so enjoy your channel...immensely! Your pig is adorable, too!
Yay!!!
Belle is One Beautiful Amazing Of An Horse Women
Yea, the snow was CRAZY! But I love this video! happy early St Patrick’s day!
Same to you!
She's gorgeous, you are going to love that trot.
I am in tears! I am so moved to see your liberty work and what your love and trust has meant to Buzz. I've done some rescue of abused animals, a few horses included. I am so so moved by what you are doing for your horses at Free Spirit. You are my hero, woman! Wish my life circumstances would have allowed me to have a farm. So happy to have found you on You Tube and am sending you good vibes and prayers daily! Much love to you and the critters!
Love how you use words. I hate it when people think their horses can guess what the human wants!
Agreed!
I feel like belle was Definitely loving her pasture mate they are " super model" horses and just look stunning together
Thank you!!
What lovely videos you make and you should definitely get all the support you need. You and your horses are wonderful and it's wonderful to see. I will keep watching!
Well, my 88 year old Mother has a few things to say to you Shea. In watching this video Mother remarked what a crappy job you had cleaning out the stalls (no pun-intended) LOL Mother also was quite impressed with how fast you got your work done and was hoping I would learn that from you too. 😂 too cute! You go Mom! She is such a joy in my life.
Omgosh, Belle looks lovely out there flying around in the beautiful snow. To me Belle acts a little snooty and full of herself. I guess being a mare she’s feel like she’s arrived and doesn’t need to prove and thing to anyone in her horse world.
It would be interesting to know if the Amish family kept any of her foals, how many she’s had and how many live births she’s had.
I could not be more pleased that she’s going to be your student for awhile.
She’s got it together! You go Belle of the Ball! ❤ the tail! 😊
💖💖💖
She's a beauty. So nice to see her flagging her tail esp after she was separated from her foal. It restores faith in humanity to see people such as yourself give the best they possibly can to these special beings. TFS your journey with Bella. I love watching these updates with each horse.
Actually according to the vet she wasn’t recently separated from a foal. That was just a possibility.
This one was SO MUCH FUN. Every time I see Belle she seems more beautiful. The way she moves against the snow! Breathtaking. The introduction to the herd was so low key, wonderful. BUZZ has come so far! That was amazing to watch. Your hint... it seems... like it may be what I was wondering.... can't wait!
Glad you enjoyed it!
She is very beautiful, she would look beautiful in Baroque tack. You should think about Working Equitation, it's good for the horse and soo much fun.
Great suggestion!
Great update. Belle is just gorgeous. And little Buzz….🤗🤗🤗
Simply another amazing video!! ❤️🐎🦄 Can't deny how stunning the slow motion trot in the snow is and how far Buzz has come!! It just shows how good of a horsewoman you are to just bring out the best in them ALL!!
Also, shout out to Jiminy Cricket showing off that effortless flying lead change in the snow!! 🤩
Thank you so much!
You take such good care of your horses and it shows in so many ways. The time you take in the beginning gives such wonderful responses in the end. Your horses love and respect you just as you love n respect them.
It’s definitely a lot of work but also super rewarding.
Buzz is adorable and so smart!! He is just precious!!
What you have done with buzz is awesome what a good boy!!
Thanks!
WOW. Prince Charming looks wonderful. He's come a long way since you got him. They all are looking great.
Thank you!
Kyle & Shae, you both are so great with the videos. Who ever took this video of the 1st part of Belle running free all
over & kicking up her heels I really loved. The slow motion is gorgeous & makes Belle even more striking. Your commentary is always informative & very well descriptive from weather conditions to your main subject matter. Your channel is by far my favorite, because I always learn something new in e every one. Those who are young & own horses cam really improve their whole out look in training & proper care in all aspect of horsemanship. There is nothing you & Kyle haven't shared together on your special farm except him modeling your LIPSTICKS. Your love & passion & fabulous out going personality in all you do just shines on all your animals & ALL OF THEM ADOBE YOU! Thank you for just being an honest, intelligent, wonderful gorgeous LADY THAT COULD CHARM A COBRA. Tons of love to you, KYLE & ALL YOUR BABIES!!!!! LOVE FROM NEW ORLEANS.
Thank you very much!!!
Bella is such a beautiful horse I love the way she picks up her
Belle*
💖
This is off the subject of your wonderful care of your horses! I love your new lip color today and it goes with everything you ware!
Thank you so much!
Belle is so very beautiful!
You train them so well. You are so kind and consistent. They know just what they are supposed to do and are happy to do it and to please you.
So Belle DID meet & get along with the others!
Kyle to the rescue! 😂 Belle is so beautiful!
Woah!! Belle did so well adjusting to the herd, and they all seemed to get along great! Totally amazing to see her already being relaxed with them. And Buzz’s improvement is crazy!! He is truly one amazing little pony 😍. Also, I have good news: I am getting riding lessons soon!! I am so unbelievably excited! Your channel has done so well in already teaching me things I need to know about horsemanship, and I’m excited to apply what I’ve already learned. 🥰❤️
Oh my gosh that’s amazing!!!!
I think you guys got all of our Western PA snow because we got hardly any. We did get a lot of winds and rain though. I know now why Belle reminds me of an Arabian. The origins of the Percheron are local mares from La Perche, France and Arabian stallions that were bred to them. It explains so much. Glad Belle did great with the herd. Buzz is proving to be so smart and Mushu likes to be the comedian. You got a great gang there.
I definitely love my herd and all of their “unique” qualities haha!
You made me laugh when you mentioned your gate overlapping. You are not the only one that it bugs. But no one will notice unless they are OCD. ❤
Yes! You knew it, we have been chopping at the bit to see Belle with the herd. 🐎🐎🐎🐎 and it was lovely. Thank you Shae, for bringing us into your farm and family. ♥
Glad you enjoyed it
I See Buzz Is Responding To Your Voice Commands, Smart Boy, Coming Right Along In His Training.
💖
So so beautiful outside!!!!
What a beautiful horse! She's my favorite! ❤
Awesome!
I love your new mare!❤ Her coat is beautiful and she reminds me of an Andalusian that I follow on another channel. She sure seems to have nicely integrated into the herd.
Oh thank you!
I am so impressed with Buzz! He is such a cutie and so smart. You scored with Belle. She is beautiful and graceful and with your dedicated training and love she is going to blossom into the belle of the barn.
Thank you so much!
The beauty is overwhelming! 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
Buzz is the sweetest clever little pony.
He certainly is haha
Your horses are so beautiful. Buzz did a great job. He has come so far. You have given him a chance to succeed in his life skills. 🥰🐴💕❤️👍👍
Belle is so chill! I love her color, it changes when the sunlight strikes it! You have good taste when it comes to color. I’m glad your herd get along with each other. God bless and more power!
Thank you!
Loved the update on Buzz!! So awesome to see his transformation. Seeing where these horses start, then to see the progress made with you along the way… I think it’s incredible what you are doing and your mission. Truly giving these horses a chance at a good life!
Can’t wait to see where things go with Belle!
Thanks so much!
These are my favorite videos when you introduce them to the herd
Yay!!!
Jazz is so cool he has all your commands down and follows your instructions to the letter well done. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
I really enjoy all of your video's Shae, especially this one that you showed us how you teach your verbal commands on the lunch line first. Buzz was a little stinker when you first started out with him and then like magic he's turned into a big ham, especially if he thinks there's going to be a treat involved. He is such a darling little guy and fun to watch. I must tell you though that Jiminity ( sp ) is my favorite of all your horses. You two were a match made in Heaven.
The snow is so beautiful and calming. Okay and laugh all the day! God is so Good 😊
It really is!
Buzz is amazing, it just show's how much time you spend training your babies. I love this channel
