It's so nice to listen to a trainer approach a problem like this and not have them jump to the all too common "quick fix" solutions of a stronger bit or lunging the horse till its exhausted (which don't fix the root of the problem). Also- props to the rider for staying on :)
Years ago, I had a Quarter Horse stallion. He was a Bar Money horse but his dam had foundation cow horse breeding, which is probably where his calm disposition came from. I used him for pole bending , barrel racing and steer decorating. Most people at horse shows and rodeos didn't even realize he was a stud. He was a calm gentle horse. Even when being used for breeding.
Thank you so much for this demonstration! Once I start my colt under saddle, i just have to find somebody who will help me work to drive him off and give him those same signals that you showed. But hopefully, he'll be listening to me- as it's worked so far on the ground. I think it will be easier than what the Palomino stallion showed, just because of our ground work so far. "Make the wrong thing hard and the right thing easy"- perfect I'm glad seeing your above demo- that I did what i did when my colt was coming of a mature age as I worked him in hand. When my colt was maturing more, and seeing my mare (not his dam) as a thing of a new interest (he passed his baby stage where he could just eat side by side- no problem) I was walking by my mare. He started calling out and dancing/prancing and puffing up "Look at me Look at me"- I turned quickly to face him and drove him back about 4 steps- which he responded to very quickly. He has never done that behavior again. He'll talk quietly as we walk past her, but he doesn't pull or make a big show like he did the first time- I see why it worked to curb his attitude once you explained this in your demo above.
@@damnboy2298 I think what she means is mares that are already in foal. If this is the case, then the mares will automatically reject any notions of sex and the young stallion will learn to be polite and respectful.
I know a lot of people say that having a stud do pasture covers the first few times they cover teaches them a lot of respect around mares because mare's don't usually put up with that
thing with most stallions is they are seen as dangerous and spend most of their lives shut up alone in some dark corner of the yard. even today you will see the yard with mares and geldings and tucked away at the far end is the stallions yard. so these poor boys develop issues. its not as bad as the days where they were caged up, and wore enough bridles and cruel painful controlling equipment when brought out.then you have the yards with the stallions boxes in the middle so they can see what is going on, a paddock they can be turned out in and a Shetland or other small gelding in the paddock next door for company, who are more balanced and fit horses than the old style of tending stallions. a well balanced stallion can be showed ridden out with other horses geldings and mares (just have to watch out for the in season mare). its a case of education the owner handler and the other horse owners around you. if every one knows how to behave and what to expect its not the serious issue a lot of people think it is
Well I'll just throw this out there, I have had in my life 5 Arabian stallions , all different ages and never had a problem around other horses whether riding or on the ground. Did not have to use stud-chains or stud halters and all could be ridden in a medium or small thin bosal,,,no big bits or any other special tools of restraint. I don't know if this is because of their breed or if they were just special, but I would like to think that it had more to do with the way that they were kept and handled than anything else.
@@traceylee8547 how did you train them? Any books, anything that you focused on? Also, what were their bloodlines? I heard some Arabian lines are more laid back while others are not.
Makes a lot of sense, have to say that Palomino is a beautiful boy, we used to breed our own horses, I kept one as a stallion and kept him with the geldings, would go on equestrian rides and park him in amongst the other horses. He was so well behaved people thought he was a mare or gelding, I guess when you breed them you socialise them the way you want them to act and having to educate the smart arse out of them can be averted, did like the way you got control of this boy but he didn't look like he had a nasty bone in him just wanted to say hello.
How could I correct my stallion's behavior around other horses under saddle? Given I usually riding alone or with my husband whom also owns a stud(my colt was pastured with him as a weanling and has "learned" who he is and to respect him) but my issues fall together when I haul somewhere for a show, trail riding or a parade. I took him to our local town's memorial day parade which I expected minimal attendees on horseback. But there ended up being 15+ equines. We warmed up in the field along the trailers, riding by other horses and riders but once lineup started, everything fell apart. He jigged, pranced and screamed the entire way. I placed myself towards the back of the pack as to be least disruptive to the other riders. My concern is how do I establish good manners under saddle without expecting fellow riders or their horses to reprimand mine? I know he needs more exposure in general to large riding groups and believe it will come together with time and consistency. But in the meantime I am lost on what to utilize as disciplinary action..
This can be done by the same principle.. Once you've seen the amount of horses in the warm up, I would have gone closer to the other horses and put him to serious work, despite his behaviour good or bad, make beeing close to the other horses a 'nasty' place and les interesting. Then turn away and give him a rest.
^ like that person mentioned but you don't have to do serious work, something as small as trotting in a circle when your horse starts to get finacky around the other horse and once you feel they loosened up let them stand. I wouldn't punish em for just interacting with the other horse as that's unreasonable expectations and doesn't benefit either of you.
@@destinationaddictionsamsar7894 well you have to do some serious work somewhere. Choosing a specific place for that can be a good Idea and thats not really punishment :)
I love that 4-socked bay sabino 😍 whoops correction after 2 yearsr: Rabicano still want a horse like him...

I have to try these tips with my stallion. I have a bosnian arabian 9 yo stallion. I bought him recently, felt in love with him at first sight. And he is not very social with other horses, on fields rides we have to go first. If there is a horse in front of us, he misbehaves so much. And I have to correcet that behaviour if I want to take him to endurance.
I have a horse who's got a riggy streak...he doesn't try and mount the mares but his mentality is that they are his...he will drive them away sometimes when I go to bring one in.Not always,but a few times...the mares often put him in his place but I'd like to address it so he doesn't try.Can I use a variation of this for this situation?
i have a yearling that goes crazy around mares and once he was with me and a mare came around and he was pulling the leadrope and I had to let go of it or I would be toast ill try this cause I'm getting a painted mare today
Can you ever put a late cut gelding with mares? He's apx 15 and was a crypto. Cut 2 weeks ago.... covered the new mare several times in the first night home :/
My question,dear Warwick,is this a long-term solution of the issue?or will the stallion try his luck over and over again?for instance when he will leave the clinics?
If he was in paddock of bred mares, they'd keep running him off until he quit trying. I have no idea what he did when he got home, this was the situation i was presented with, and Im just showing in the video how I dealt with it.
many thanks for all your demonstrations!I probably SAW Them all in the meantime.You teach us a lot!Your understanding of horses is extraordinary.Many greetings to you from Germany!!
i have a stallion but we do not train stallions this way we start them from day 1 as baby's and work with them for fun so they are very well trained stallions no problems at all.
Not everyone has that opportunity to work with them from day one. My boy didn't come to me until he was 4 1/2. He's doing well, but still learning how to focus.
I see that this video is a few months old now so, sorry to pull you back - my own stallion while obedient when working in the school with others just about always has five legs (!) Do you think the procedure in the you demonstrate could be used to help him relax a little?
Question: Does having the rider mounted while you direct this horse away from the mare hinder the role and leadership position that the rider is meant to have while handling/riding his/her horse? In other words, the horse seems to be making his own decisions in this situation with the rider in the saddle. Pictures can only tell part of the story of this exercise. Absolutely gorgeous stallion and great job to the rider for sticking in the seat. :)
Congrats to the rider. I have found the more you expose them to the better they get. Rode an Arabian stallion for years with geldings and mares. Putting them in with other horses really does help. Not so sure of the whole flag thing.
If shes prancing, that means she is wanting to move her feet, and that you are pulling on the reins and preventing her doing what she is wanting to do, and you first need to figure out what it is she wants to do, before you decide what you need to do to solve the issue.
So, basically you played high horse/stallion and kept him from "taking the mare". And you put him in a lower place on hierarchy. But I would take the rider off before doing all that. I don't understand where is on the leading scale his owner placed. But I would make her work more on who's higher and lower.
My guess is that this lady was having problems exclusively under saddle, and this interaction helped teach the horse, "When someone is riding me, I do not breed."
We have a pony stallion in a field of five thoroughbred geldings and he is 10hh and the geldings are 16.2hh and over. The stallion is in charge of the food, water, boundary gates and hay. He decides who is going to be in the herd, out of the herd, who gets to drink and eat first where they are allowed stand in the gateway, who stands where at the hay feeder and who gets to be caught first.
First I would have a couple of questions for you? Did you already know the riders capabilities? How much did you know about the stallion? He seems like a pretty mellow stallion to begin with? I bought a coming three year old palomino stallion that had been pasture breeding and I think he would of went right through you and the flag. Was the horse with the handler a mare or gelding?
Dear Warwick, I love your down-to-earth advice! We are purchasing a 20 year old stallion (Lipizzan) who is a neglect case and has been secluded by himself his whole life. We want to eventually introduce him to our two geldings (also 20 years old) and hope they can be turned out together. Could you please give me some advice? Thank you.
A 20 year old horse who has lived by himself his whole life will be an interesting case, as he will not have been socialised with other horses at all. I would imagine his mental state will have a lot to do with how much and what type of human interaction he has had.
He was started under saddle as a young horse, sorry I don't know the details. He has lived in a paddock across from his mother (age 27), his entire life - they have never been together, nor was the stallion ever bred. His mother is very decrepit and would not come out of her stall (she's in very bad shape - looks like she has a broken back). He has never has been trailered or taken off the property. When, I drove out to meet him last weekend, he is a very friendly, cooperative guy. Not pushy, nippy or screaming. He just wanted us to pat him on the neck. He led around fine on the lead rope. His mother is not long for this world, so I bought him to save him from a similar fate. Have you ever dealt with a case like this before? I wish you lived in the U.S. so I could work with you, regarding this stallion. Thank you.
saldressage, i have a Lipi mare. Her owner had too many horses, and she was left in pasture for a few years. That what i heard at least. She was a free horse, all i had to pay was shipping. She's been awsome, but we always knew there was more to her story. A few months ago i found out she had been heavily abused. Lips are very sensitive horses, and incredibly smart. Best of luck, lmk if you need any help. I know i would've loved having someone with a Lip to talk to.
Something else is that Lips live a long time. Some stallions at the SRS perform at nearly 30. If he's sound its possible to bring him back to the point of being a trail horse. My mare is 17, and doesn't look a day over 12. My 14yr old pony looks older than her. Again best of luck.
Brilliant. We are not strong enough to control a horse, the best we can do is show him how to control himself. And huge congratulations to the rider, who has great ability. Any ordinary rider would have been spilled. Let this also be a lesson, girls, in the power of testosterone, so don't muck with it in the human form because it is living on a knife edge, while being controllable.
Great video as always. I'm not familiar with a bridle like that but I don't like the tightness of that throat lash and have to ask myself why would you do that?
i totally agree about the throat latch or collar maybe to keep him from pulling out of a bridle to get to mares etc. i think it was way to tight as well. My friend had a huge Tennessee Walker stud who was so good and so gentle. My mare was in serious heat on a trail ride and kept her tail curved over her back and constantly presenting herself to him as he was riding behind me. He was such a gentleman and never tried to fight to get to her even though she really embarrassed me. The ride was a good one with no problems as she was such a wonderful horse.
It's called a Barcoo bridle. It is used in Australia on big ranches where horses are ties to trees while a lunch break is taken. Often the rider will be on his own and if the horse rubs the bridle half off on the tree the the tighter throat strap will contain the horse so the rider won't have to walk 30-40 miles back to his camp or twice as far trying to catch his horse. Hope that helps.
I had a question about your two horses in the video. The one horse that was there first kept yawning and chewing. Was he doing that because you were there? Kind of a "ok, I'll be nice" ...
Hi. My little sister has a 13 hand, 10yr old mustang mare. She was at one point alpha over 16+hand horses. She's had dominance issues with humans in the past and they seen to be flaring up. Yesterday i was free lunging her, and she was hard but did listen. My sis went to try and the mare refused to go out on a circle. When my sis pushed, the mare came in and reared at her. Its not the first time she had done this, she's done it to me several times and i work her and she is ok. It is the 1st time she has done it to my sister. I'm kinda worried BC my sisters body language isn't great , she really hasn't worked on it much, and the mare has always been great for her. When she reared last night my sis was kinda shaken up, so i went in and made her do a join up with me. She was ok after that. Then this morning i was trying to jump her in hand and she tried to bite my hand. I have a Lipizzan mare who is very easy to work with, i told my sis to work with her to help her posture. I'm kinda stumped, i can handle the mustang on the ground, and I'm not afraid of her coming at me. But she has never done anything to my sister before last night. Should i be worried about her challenging my sis? Any advice for keeping her from doing it again? Should it be my sis to work with her or should I?.
Hannah Horres Here check out Rick Gore’s video for the lunging problem: ruclips.net/video/aBg2zpyil3k/видео.html Anyways for the biting thing, you have to make her uncomfortable. Let the horse know that biting is the wrong answer
Its likely you've already fixed this, but to add a bit to the biting problem solution, making her uncomfortable doesn't always mean smacking her (some horses will take this as attention, albeit negative attention, and will do it just to get a response-- not to mention they'll eventually learn to evade you), but instead, like with my little filly, if you grab beneath her chin and force her head up while backing her up (from the ground) it teaches her that if she goes in for a bite she's going to have to move and she wont be able to bite you while you make her back away. Another trick that's good for this is after she bites, approach her more aggressively and force her to back up/walk off and leave you. when she tries to come in again, run her off. Do this a few times until she comes in respectfully, it will hopefully teach her YOU are the leader and she has to ask permission before coming in. This exercise will also help if you do it after rearing, kicking, or general pushing-- this is just what I've found from my work with my filly (shes a stubborn little Arabian, and she's always challenging for the lead position), but that doesn't mean it will work with every horse. Best of luck to you!
Ok, the way I know to let the horse find the right way, is to wear a long sleeved shirt and stick a raw, unpeeled potato up the sleeve where he will bite. If the potato doesn't work use a cut lemon. I've only known one horse I had to use lemon with, cuz he used to dig and eat the potatoes from the garden. Doesn't take long for them to figure out it's not the fun thing to do--only one or two times probably. Good luck.
Very interesting. I also noticed the rider could stand to learn a more balanced seat, she was leaning forward and had her legs way out in front nearly the whole time. But everyone's horsemanship is a work in progress always.
I have a rodeo coming up and I have a 4yr old stud he sometimes acts up around mares & i dont want him to act up at the rodeo cause Im sure there will be tons of mares.!!!! What could I do ??!
No after a couple of repeats they get it and learn to control themselves. It's like sacking out, you don't need to sack them out to every spooky thing you come across.
I'm wondering, if this isn't just making the horse get away from the flag, not the mares? It's a good idea but I'm not sure the stallion connects this experience to every mare he meets? Any opinions?
If there were no people or flags, and that stallion was in with a group of barren, or in foal mares, exactly the same thing would have happened. Individually they would have each chased him away, until he found a nice quiet place to be like he did in the end of this video.
I don't understand how you determine that the rider had no control. She looked pretty chill to me, and she was deliberately letting the horse react to the flags and not getting in the way of the lesson. Warwick didn't do this because she couldn't control the horse; he did it because the horse couldn't control himself.
Now how do you teach a mare to control herself? She's been trying SO hard to get with my gelding and is completely ignoring me, despite me kicking the crap out of her, Which I never have to do. Part of the problem is she can walk straight forward with her head all the way to my boot. She can even trot like that.
Makes sense, indeed it's the mares that control the herd, (that's how we got a young gelding to behave, we had put him in a field with the mares). But in this video the poor mare that Warwick is holding is STRESSED almost the times when Warwick lifts that flag in front of her face (look at her body language! She likes to get away too). It might not be HER intention to send away the stallion. What did Warwick teach her? That stallions are scary?
A horse doesn`t make such an extensive association. For her, the threat or the source of anxiety was simply the flag or the plastic bag being waved in front of her. She didn`t make the connection between the intention of the stallion to come around her with the intention of Warwick to keep him at bay by lifting that flag. The horses are smart, but not that smart or I would rather say they would follow our way of thinking only up to a certain point.
Stallions in work can defiantly be taught self control you only have to look a t the Spanish riding school in Vienna where all the horses in the performance are stallions but their self control is such that they perform high level dressage movements while amongst each other admittedly there are no mares in the school the mares are all kept on the stud the performing horses are all stallions so yes they can learn and a stallion being in work is usually a happier horse than one that is kept locked up except when he goes to the serving barn
How would this help her in a ridden session when other people are on their horses? there will not be people with flags on the ground, doesn't she need to learn to have the horse under control not the environment? Would you not have her work the butt of her horse around all of the other horses making them undesirable to be around, or was this done as a separate part of training? I just do not see how this would work without people and flags outside of an arena?
The point of doing this wasn't to ward him off in a pasture, it was to show him when he's being ridden, lax reigns or no, he can't just be bruting his way over to the mares or else there will be stress. Repeating an action like this multiple times will reinforce that while there are people around, he needs to be aware of boundaries.What he does in pasture will be dictated by the reaction of those mares in pasture-- and they'll likely whoop his ass if they're not in heat and already have been around geldings/stallions who harassed them and he tries to mount them/approaches them disrespectfully. A young mare wouldn't be a good idea to put him with due to a lack of experience, but a group of older mares or mares in foal would be a fantastic learning tool for him.
I understand the concept...but under normal circumstances when being ridden there wouldnt be a person on the ground with a flag or rope to create pressure, that was my only query 👌
WarwickSchiller - Thanks for responding and please accept my apologies for my comment from last night. I reread it and it sounds very rude and not like me at all. I really enjoy watching your videos & I think you do a great job with your horses. Thanks again.
the point of this particular exercise, in my opinion and from what I'm seeing, is that this is step one of teaching a stallion boundaries. whether there was a rider or not likely wouldnt have mattered, but it is a good thing to show him that when he's being ridden, he needs to control himself, and the next step would be, as Warwick mentioned, to take him into a pasture of barren or in foal mares and let them chase him off so he understands whether theres a rider or not, humans on the ground or not, mares will chase him off and he needs to be respectful. It was less about the rider teaching him and more about him learning manners from mares.
I love Warwicks inside into the horses nature and their instinctive behavior. I am concerned that this amateur rider is hanging on without even wearing a hard hat. Not safe.
That is her decision. Dont tell me what to wear on my head and I wont tell you what to wear on yours. Its like politics and religion, its not up for discussion.
I have a dilemma. I have a mare and she is 4 years old (see profile pic) her name is kali and she is a Gelders paard its a dutch breed and she is a pure Gelderse and that is really rare because it’s al bred with other breeds so it’s important that there come more pure bred Gelderse and I want to breed here when she is around 7-9 years old so she has al the time to be a child because that is more important to me than a foal but it is fun and you can learn a lot from the experience you know and she is a really beautiful mare so her offspring would also be amazing but she can be hot and it is in the bloodline that they are hot but most of the time she is the sweetest little devil I have ever seen and she is really easy going because I can touch her belly and she doesn’t mind etc. but I’m 14 years old and I ride Sinds I was 4 so I got the Experience but what if I get a stallion the breed would really benefit from it because we could use it as a breeding stallion or just for riding and the breed is really stable in the head if you know what I mean. So my question is : if I get a stallion foal should i keep it a stallion or should I castrate him. ( i want to keep the foal btw it doesn’t matter if it’s male or female I really want to keep it)
i always ride stallions and all my horses know what happend if they behave like that around other horses the mighty wip appears problem fix always work...
hecto m arriaga working w/ a well trained stallion now.. he's 7 just got him, and have yet to take him out in our pasture w/ mares.. got him standing still, no hollering less then 3 yards from them, but w/ a fence in between.. I want to take him on trail rides, how should I go about making him understand "when your under saddle, no breeding!!" Which like I said he's well trained and may already understand this.. but what can I do to reassure myself??
@@tommytom4834 try having someone hold a mare and walk them near eachother with the fence still in between. Get close and if all goes well do the same from further away with no fence(again with someone keeping the mare on a lead to ensure she stays back). Continue to do this getting closer and closer until you can walk right by without issue. Do this with several different mares to ensure he knows with everyone he needs to behave. If he does well you're most likely safe. I have never interacted with any stallions though, so my advice is only speculation. Good luck in your training.
Well in my opinion, all this taught this horse that no matter the guy riding him, he can do what HE wants.... That's a very bad lesson. He shouldn't have been allowed to do all this while being rode... I think the best way was to one rein stop him every time he looks towards the females... Don't you think?
My friend has a technique - it was very effective for their stallion, but I think mine might go into shock if I tried it on him - when they're riding, if the stallion became aroused, they would take their reins and slap the stallion's penis. It didn't affect his desire to breed in the field, but it didn't take long for him to lose his desire while under saddle. Again, not sure how much I endorse that method, it might end up with you on the ground and a wild stallion running loose...but it worked for my friend and his horse.
Just my opinion but if you are doing group training like that, why the (heck) are you allowing a stud horse in as part of a group of "civilians"? He'd have jolly well moved his feet if you'd been carrying a cattle prod instead of a nappy fluttering on a whippy stick.
Well he did "jolly well move his feet from my nappy fluttering on my whippy stick", as you saw by the end of the video. The reason I allowed a stud horse in there as I was doing a problem solving clinic, and that was a problem the lady wanted solved, and by the nd, it was solved.
...after pushing the boundaries numerous times and not being deterred much by your nappy-on-a-stick routine. And my guess is if you got that same group of horses together today and marched that stud into the arena, you'd have the same problem with him. So, you might have finally won that particular "battle" but I seriously doubt you made enough of an impression on that stallion that you taught him a permanent lesson and won the "war".
ah yes, instead of doing things that make the horse think, just jab him with a cattle prod and fill him with electricity! That'll sure solve the problem and not unnecessarily hurt the animal! You're pathetic. if you need a cattle prod to control a horse you're too damn stupid to be around horses.
Ever heard of the English language.... I can barely understand 1/2 jockey L your saying drop the heavy amount of slang not only Australians are watching and wanting to learn, I like your videos and don't want to stop watching them but your brash use of slang is a massive put off. I rescue/retrain /show and breed and also often rehome off the track Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds (For saddle and or harnessjockey show and or pleasure after retiring from being a decently successful jockey in UK/use/USA/new Zealand/⅝'!4 There is no county called Straya (it's Australia and you being from there and posting it on you tube for the WORLD to see try already to attempt the proper saying ). And theirs no such horse sex as. stayonne (it's a Stallion). It's irks the hell out of me when you kill you own countries cool accent by bastasrdisation of the basic words? Do they teach you to murder the English language in schools there ? If so it's disgusting!!! I was born in France and raised in the UK . I also due to my heritage speak Russian ,French, Belgian (family friends were Belgian so they taught me so I could join the mixture languages conversations they'd have so people wouldn't be nosing in on our private chats), German, Spanish , Italian and the true old real Romany languàges (the true old Romany spoken by the older European gypsy people) not the half murdered rubbish they try calling Romany these days ( of which the true old Romany speakers of the real and old Romany that my Grandpa who was Russian/Romany Gypsy/Hungarian/German mix (and only one of his 12 family members including his identical twin brother whom he was the only survivor from Auschwitz) my French/Spanish/Italian mix Grandma raised me and adopted me at 12.

I feel sorry for you. Im not sure if you realise it, but you too have a regional accent from wherever you grew up, and Im sure you aren't putting it on, it's just how you talk. Giving mne a hard time about how I talk is almost like a form of racism.

People who I teach ask me about my pronouncing here and there and I don't call it rasism I ask them to help me and they do because that's what is called constructive criticism. Oh look the French lady knows big English words. I'm not abusing you. I'm trying to offer you help for your international fans. If you can't handle that you need to find something else to do than post on international video uploads sites. Maybe start your own page just for your own country if you can't handle it.

"You don't control the horse, the horse controls the horse" -- best training quote I've heard in a long time. :D
It's so nice to listen to a trainer approach a problem like this and not have them jump to the all too common "quick fix" solutions of a stronger bit or lunging the horse till its exhausted (which don't fix the root of the problem). Also- props to the rider for staying on :)
"Make the wrong thing hard & make the right thing easy." Yes!
I've never owned a stallion, but this was still very informative. Thank you!
The lady really did some effective riding ..good job. Good video
Good!!! brave Lady staying up there in the saddle
Years ago, I had a Quarter Horse stallion. He was a Bar Money horse but his dam had foundation cow horse breeding, which is probably where his calm disposition came from. I used him for pole bending , barrel racing and steer decorating. Most people at horse shows and rodeos didn't even realize he was a stud. He was a calm gentle horse. Even when being used for breeding.
Thank you so much for this demonstration! Once I start my colt under saddle, i just have to find somebody who will help me work to drive him off and give him those same signals that you showed. But hopefully, he'll be listening to me- as it's worked so far on the ground. I think it will be easier than what the Palomino stallion showed, just because of our ground work so far. "Make the wrong thing hard and the right thing easy"- perfect
I'm glad seeing your above demo- that I did what i did when my colt was coming of a mature age as I worked him in hand.
When my colt was maturing more, and seeing my mare (not his dam) as a thing of a new interest (he passed his baby stage where he could just eat side by side- no problem) I was walking by my mare. He started calling out and dancing/prancing and puffing up "Look at me Look at me"- I turned quickly to face him and drove him back about 4 steps- which he responded to very quickly. He has never done that behavior again. He'll talk quietly as we walk past her, but he doesn't pull or make a big show like he did the first time- I see why it worked to curb his attitude once you explained this in your demo above.
There is nothing like a small herd of bred mares to give a young colt an attitude adjustment.
Rebecca what is bred mares?
@@damnboy2298 I think what she means is mares that are already in foal. If this is the case, then the mares will automatically reject any notions of sex and the young stallion will learn to be polite and respectful.
TRACEY LEE oh.. yeah where I come from it is called something else
the photos really help teach the postureing . THANK YOU
That's a beautiful stallion, gotta say!
Really enjoyed that. Great demonstration in developing emotional fitness for both horse and handler! Thank you Warwick :)
I know a lot of people say that having a stud do pasture covers the first few times they cover teaches them a lot of respect around mares because mare's don't usually put up with that
Chops to the rider for staying on
Thank you Warwick, this was helpful.
My stud has given up on befriended my mares who ignore him. Hes now moved to being friends with a cow . Bless him hes the best boy.
Thanks. We stand some studs, and some come to us w/o training.
Awesome job, thank you for the video 🐎
omg..what a persistance....and great video.Thanks
thing with most stallions is they are seen as dangerous and spend most of their lives shut up alone in some dark corner of the yard. even today you will see the yard with mares and geldings and tucked away at the far end is the stallions yard. so these poor boys develop issues. its not as bad as the days where they were caged up, and wore enough bridles and cruel painful controlling equipment when brought out.then you have the yards with the stallions boxes in the middle so they can see what is going on, a paddock they can be turned out in and a Shetland or other small gelding in the paddock next door for company, who are more balanced and fit horses than the old style of tending stallions. a well balanced stallion can be showed ridden out with other horses geldings and mares (just have to watch out for the in season mare). its a case of education the owner handler and the other horse owners around you. if every one knows how to behave and what to expect its not the serious issue a lot of people think it is
Well I'll just throw this out there, I have had in my life 5 Arabian stallions , all different ages and never had a problem around other horses whether riding or on the ground. Did not have to use stud-chains or stud halters and all could be ridden in a medium or small thin bosal,,,no big bits or any other special tools of restraint. I don't know if this is because of their breed or if they were just special, but I would like to think that it had more to do with the way that they were kept and handled than anything else.
@@traceylee8547 i would lije to take some tips from u, can you send me hi on my email hakim.enchanting@gmail.com
@@traceylee8547 how did you train them? Any books, anything that you focused on? Also, what were their bloodlines? I heard some Arabian lines are more laid back while others are not.
Amazing video 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Really helpful video, Warwick! Thanks!
Great advice! Thanks.
Wow, fabulous video!!!! So much here!!
Can you do a video of what you do when you train sliding stops?
There are videos of this on my subscription library
Makes a lot of sense, have to say that Palomino is a beautiful boy, we used to breed our own horses, I kept one as a stallion and kept him with the geldings, would go on equestrian rides and park him in amongst the other horses. He was so well behaved people thought he was a mare or gelding, I guess when you breed them you socialise them the way you want them to act and having to educate the smart arse out of them can be averted, did like the way you got control of this boy but he didn't look like he had a nasty bone in him just wanted to say hello.
How could I correct my stallion's behavior around other horses under saddle? Given I usually riding alone or with my husband whom also owns a stud(my colt was pastured with him as a weanling and has "learned" who he is and to respect him) but my issues fall together when I haul somewhere for a show, trail riding or a parade. I took him to our local town's memorial day parade which I expected minimal attendees on horseback. But there ended up being 15+ equines. We warmed up in the field along the trailers, riding by other horses and riders but once lineup started, everything fell apart. He jigged, pranced and screamed the entire way. I placed myself towards the back of the pack as to be least disruptive to the other riders. My concern is how do I establish good manners under saddle without expecting fellow riders or their horses to reprimand mine? I know he needs more exposure in general to large riding groups and believe it will come together with time and consistency. But in the meantime I am lost on what to utilize as disciplinary action..
This can be done by the same principle.. Once you've seen the amount of horses in the warm up, I would have gone closer to the other horses and put him to serious work, despite his behaviour good or bad, make beeing close to the other horses a 'nasty' place and les interesting. Then turn away and give him a rest.
^ like that person mentioned but you don't have to do serious work, something as small as trotting in a circle when your horse starts to get finacky around the other horse and once you feel they loosened up let them stand. I wouldn't punish em for just interacting with the other horse as that's unreasonable expectations and doesn't benefit either of you.
@@destinationaddictionsamsar7894 well you have to do some serious work somewhere. Choosing a specific place for that can be a good Idea and thats not really punishment :)
I love that 4-socked bay sabino 😍
whoops correction after 2 yearsr: Rabicano
still want a horse like him...
I have to try these tips with my stallion. I have a bosnian arabian 9 yo stallion. I bought him recently, felt in love with him at first sight. And he is not very social with other horses, on fields rides we have to go first. If there is a horse in front of us, he misbehaves so much. And I have to correcet that behaviour if I want to take him to endurance.
Just came across this site and I’m wondering if there is an actual video of this so we could see it happening in real time
No sorry, only the photos.
I have a horse who's got a riggy streak...he doesn't try and mount the mares but his mentality is that they are his...he will drive them away sometimes when I go to bring one in.Not always,but a few times...the mares often put him in his place but I'd like to address it so he doesn't try.Can I use a variation of this for this situation?
He is stunning!
i have a yearling that goes crazy around mares and once he was with me and a mare came around and he was pulling the leadrope and I had to let go of it or I would be toast ill try this cause I'm getting a painted mare today
Really good. Thank you.
All of my male horses are stallions and they are really nice and never buck or rear or bolt when I'm on them
That's because they are well trained and have a great rider! ❤️
Can you ever put a late cut gelding with mares? He's apx 15 and was a crypto. Cut 2 weeks ago.... covered the new mare several times in the first night home :/
I have currently.
Great edit.....
+WarwickSchiller I love these video's, so informative! "the path of least resistance", do you listen to Abraham-Hicks by any chance? :)
My question,dear Warwick,is this a long-term solution of the issue?or will the stallion try his luck over and over again?for instance when he will leave the clinics?
If he was in paddock of bred mares, they'd keep running him off until he quit trying.
I have no idea what he did when he got home, this was the situation i was presented with, and Im just showing in the video how I dealt with it.
many thanks for all your demonstrations!I probably SAW Them all in the meantime.You teach us a lot!Your understanding of horses is extraordinary.Many greetings to you from Germany!!
i have a stallion but we do not train stallions this way we start them from day 1 as baby's and work with them for fun so they are very well trained stallions no problems at all.
This one showed up to a clinic that way so I had to deal with what I had.
WarwickSchiller okay yeah now i understand
Not everyone has that opportunity to work with them from day one. My boy didn't come to me until he was 4 1/2. He's doing well, but still learning how to focus.
@@aztib any book recommendations or tips to train a stallion for them to be calm and respectful?
I see that this video is a few months old now so, sorry to pull you back - my own stallion while obedient when working in the school with others just about always has five legs (!) Do you think the procedure in the you demonstrate could be used to help him relax a little?
Question: Does having the rider mounted while you direct this horse away from the mare hinder the role and leadership position that the rider is meant to have while handling/riding his/her horse? In other words, the horse seems to be making his own decisions in this situation with the rider in the saddle. Pictures can only tell part of the story of this exercise.
Absolutely gorgeous stallion and great job to the rider for sticking in the seat. :)
Congrats to the rider. I have found the more you expose them to the better they get. Rode an Arabian stallion for years with geldings and mares. Putting them in with other horses really does help. Not so sure of the whole flag thing.
So if you were on the ground holding onto one of those horses, how would you keep him off them ?
First I would have to know more about the rider and the stallion? I wouldn't risk getting someone hurt
What would you do with a mare that starts getting excited and starts prancing around other horses? Would i do the same thing
If shes prancing, that means she is wanting to move her feet, and that you are pulling on the reins and preventing her doing what she is wanting to do, and you first need to figure out what it is she wants to do, before you decide what you need to do to solve the issue.
So, basically you played high horse/stallion and kept him from "taking the mare". And you put him in a lower place on hierarchy. But I would take the rider off before doing all that. I don't understand where is on the leading scale his owner placed. But I would make her work more on who's higher and lower.
My guess is that this lady was having problems exclusively under saddle, and this interaction helped teach the horse, "When someone is riding me, I do not breed."
Thumbs up and Subbed. Greetings from Ireland, Happy New Year 2017.
We have a pony stallion in a field of five thoroughbred geldings and he is 10hh and the geldings are 16.2hh and over. The stallion is in charge of the food, water, boundary gates and hay. He decides who is going to be in the herd, out of the herd, who gets to drink and eat first where they are allowed stand in the gateway, who stands where at the hay feeder and who gets to be caught first.
First I would have a couple of questions for you? Did you already know the riders capabilities? How much did you know about the stallion? He seems like a pretty mellow stallion to begin with? I bought a coming three year old palomino stallion that had been pasture breeding and I think he would of went right through you and the flag. Was the horse with the handler a mare or gelding?
Dear Warwick, I love your down-to-earth advice! We are purchasing a 20 year old stallion (Lipizzan) who is a neglect case and has been secluded by himself his whole life. We want to eventually introduce him to our two geldings (also 20 years old) and hope they can be turned out together. Could you please give me some advice? Thank you.
A 20 year old horse who has lived by himself his whole life will be an interesting case, as he will not have been socialised with other horses at all.
I would imagine his mental state will have a lot to do with how much and what type of human interaction he has had.
He was started under saddle as a young horse, sorry I don't know the details. He has lived in a paddock across from his mother (age 27), his entire life - they have never been together, nor was the stallion ever bred. His mother is very decrepit and would not come out of her stall (she's in very bad shape - looks like she has a broken back). He has never has been trailered or taken off the property. When, I drove out to meet him last weekend, he is a very friendly, cooperative guy. Not pushy, nippy or screaming. He just wanted us to pat him on the neck. He led around fine on the lead rope. His mother is not long for this world, so I bought him to save him from a similar fate. Have you ever dealt with a case like this before? I wish you lived in the U.S. so I could work with you, regarding this stallion. Thank you.
I do live in the US.
He sounds like he is pretty well adjusted and should be fine.
saldressage, i have a Lipi mare. Her owner had too many horses, and she was left in pasture for a few years. That what i heard at least. She was a free horse, all i had to pay was shipping. She's been awsome, but we always knew there was more to her story. A few months ago i found out she had been heavily abused. Lips are very sensitive horses, and incredibly smart. Best of luck, lmk if you need any help. I know i would've loved having someone with a Lip to talk to.
Something else is that Lips live a long time. Some stallions at the SRS perform at nearly 30. If he's sound its possible to bring him back to the point of being a trail horse. My mare is 17, and doesn't look a day over 12. My 14yr old pony looks older than her. Again best of luck.
Brilliant. We are not strong enough to control a horse, the best we can do is show him how to control himself. And huge congratulations to the rider, who has great ability. Any ordinary rider would have been spilled. Let this also be a lesson, girls, in the power of testosterone, so don't muck with it in the human form because it is living on a knife edge, while being controllable.
Great video as always. I'm not familiar with a bridle like that but I don't like the tightness of that throat lash and have to ask myself why would you do that?
i totally agree about the throat latch or collar maybe to keep him from pulling out of a bridle to get to mares etc. i think it was way to tight as well. My friend had a huge Tennessee Walker stud who was so good and so gentle. My mare was in serious heat on a trail ride and kept her tail curved over her back and constantly presenting herself to him as he was riding behind me. He was such a gentleman and never tried to fight to get to her even though she really embarrassed me. The ride was a good one with no problems as she was such a wonderful horse.
It's called an Extended Head Barcoo bridle. Google it ;)
Thanks Esmay, will do.
Interesting,very different from English tack. Cheers
It's called a Barcoo bridle. It is used in Australia on big ranches where horses are ties to trees while a lunch break is taken. Often the rider will be on his own and if the horse rubs the bridle half off on the tree the the tighter throat strap will contain the horse so the rider won't have to walk 30-40 miles back to his camp or twice as far trying to catch his horse. Hope that helps.
I had a question about your two horses in the video. The one horse that was there first kept yawning and chewing. Was he doing that because you were there? Kind of a "ok, I'll be nice" ...
I really dont know
My stud does that every time the farrier does his feet!

Hi. My little sister has a 13 hand, 10yr old mustang mare. She was at one point alpha over 16+hand horses. She's had dominance issues with humans in the past and they seen to be flaring up. Yesterday i was free lunging her, and she was hard but did listen. My sis went to try and the mare refused to go out on a circle. When my sis pushed, the mare came in and reared at her. Its not the first time she had done this, she's done it to me several times and i work her and she is ok. It is the 1st time she has done it to my sister. I'm kinda worried BC my sisters body language isn't great , she really hasn't worked on it much, and the mare has always been great for her. When she reared last night my sis was kinda shaken up, so i went in and made her do a join up with me. She was ok after that. Then this morning i was trying to jump her in hand and she tried to bite my hand. I have a Lipizzan mare who is very easy to work with, i told my sis to work with her to help her posture. I'm kinda stumped, i can handle the mustang on the ground, and I'm not afraid of her coming at me. But she has never done anything to my sister before last night. Should i be worried about her challenging my sis? Any advice for keeping her from doing it again? Should it be my sis to work with her or should I?.
Hannah Horres Here check out Rick Gore’s video for the lunging problem: ruclips.net/video/aBg2zpyil3k/видео.html Anyways for the biting thing, you have to make her uncomfortable. Let the horse know that biting is the wrong answer
Its likely you've already fixed this, but to add a bit to the biting problem solution, making her uncomfortable doesn't always mean smacking her (some horses will take this as attention, albeit negative attention, and will do it just to get a response-- not to mention they'll eventually learn to evade you), but instead, like with my little filly, if you grab beneath her chin and force her head up while backing her up (from the ground) it teaches her that if she goes in for a bite she's going to have to move and she wont be able to bite you while you make her back away.
Another trick that's good for this is after she bites, approach her more aggressively and force her to back up/walk off and leave you. when she tries to come in again, run her off. Do this a few times until she comes in respectfully, it will hopefully teach her YOU are the leader and she has to ask permission before coming in. This exercise will also help if you do it after rearing, kicking, or general pushing-- this is just what I've found from my work with my filly (shes a stubborn little Arabian, and she's always challenging for the lead position), but that doesn't mean it will work with every horse. Best of luck to you!
Ok, the way I know to let the horse find the right way, is to wear a long sleeved shirt and stick a raw, unpeeled potato up the sleeve where he will bite. If the potato doesn't work use a cut lemon. I've only known one horse I had to use lemon with, cuz he used to dig and eat the potatoes from the garden. Doesn't take long for them to figure out it's not the fun thing to do--only one or two times probably. Good luck.
Very interesting. I also noticed the rider could stand to learn a more balanced seat, she was leaning forward and had her legs way out in front nearly the whole time. But everyone's horsemanship is a work in progress always.
I have a rodeo coming up and I have a 4yr old stud he sometimes acts up around mares & i dont want him to act up at the rodeo cause Im sure there will be tons of mares.!!!! What could I do ??!
Get a gelding.
So, does this have to be repeated every time a stallion encounters a new horse?
No after a couple of repeats they get it and learn to control themselves. It's like sacking out, you don't need to sack them out to every spooky thing you come across.
Which horse is the stallion? I thought it was the bay....
The palomino.
I'm wondering, if this isn't just making the horse get away from the flag, not the mares? It's a good idea but I'm not sure the stallion connects this experience to every mare he meets? Any opinions?
In the end, he stayed away without anyone using the flag.
@@WarwickSchiller yes I know, but would that also work outside this situation? Like in the stables, on the road..?
@@WarwickSchiller basically I'm asking advice, if this work in different situations
So funny how they think and test the rules.

XD Them quotes! Im like yasss lol :-!
So how would you go about teaching a stallion manners in public when not In a Clinic setting?
The rider had no control whatsoever. What would have happened if there were no other people or "flags" around.
If there were no people or flags, and that stallion was in with a group of barren, or in foal mares, exactly the same thing would have happened.
Individually they would have each chased him away, until he found a nice quiet place to be like he did in the end of this video.
I don't understand how you determine that the rider had no control. She looked pretty chill to me, and she was deliberately letting the horse react to the flags and not getting in the way of the lesson. Warwick didn't do this because she couldn't control the horse; he did it because the horse couldn't control himself.
Now how do you teach a mare to control herself? She's been trying SO hard to get with my gelding and is completely ignoring me, despite me kicking the crap out of her, Which I never have to do. Part of the problem is she can walk straight forward with her head all the way to my boot. She can even trot like that.
Makes sense, indeed it's the mares that control the herd, (that's how we got a young gelding to behave, we had put him in a field with the mares). But in this video the poor mare that Warwick is holding is STRESSED almost the times when Warwick lifts that flag in front of her face (look at her body language! She likes to get away too). It might not be HER intention to send away the stallion. What did Warwick teach her? That stallions are scary?
A horse doesn`t make such an extensive association. For her, the threat or the source of anxiety was simply the flag or the plastic bag being waved in front of her. She didn`t make the connection between the intention of the stallion to come around her with the intention of Warwick to keep him at bay by lifting that flag. The horses are smart, but not that smart or I would rather say they would follow our way of thinking only up to a certain point.
Stallions in work can defiantly be taught self control you only have to look a t the Spanish riding school in Vienna where all the horses in the performance are stallions but their self control is such that they perform high level dressage movements while amongst each other admittedly there are no mares in the school the mares are all kept on the stud the performing horses are all stallions so yes they can learn and a stallion being in work is usually a happier horse than one that is kept locked up except when he goes to the serving barn
i have a stallion and he is a bit hard to handle
How would this help her in a ridden session when other people are on their horses? there will not be people with flags on the ground, doesn't she need to learn to have the horse under control not the environment? Would you not have her work the butt of her horse around all of the other horses making them undesirable to be around, or was this done as a separate part of training? I just do not see how this would work without people and flags outside of an arena?
The point of doing this wasn't to ward him off in a pasture, it was to show him when he's being ridden, lax reigns or no, he can't just be bruting his way over to the mares or else there will be stress. Repeating an action like this multiple times will reinforce that while there are people around, he needs to be aware of boundaries.What he does in pasture will be dictated by the reaction of those mares in pasture-- and they'll likely whoop his ass if they're not in heat and already have been around geldings/stallions who harassed them and he tries to mount them/approaches them disrespectfully. A young mare wouldn't be a good idea to put him with due to a lack of experience, but a group of older mares or mares in foal would be a fantastic learning tool for him.
just my take from being around studs and mares.
I understand the concept...but under normal circumstances when being ridden there wouldnt be a person on the ground with a flag or rope to create pressure, that was my only query 👌
So chilled out she is yawning away. Com'on warwick im wanting a nap hurry.
Why photos? A video would have been easier... Right? This is strange to me that it was done this way...
Because I didnt video it, but one of the spectators took a lot of photos and I felt it was an important story to tell.
WarwickSchiller -
Thanks for responding and please accept my apologies for my comment from last night. I reread it and it sounds very rude and not like me at all.
I really enjoy watching your videos & I think you do a great job with your horses. Thanks again.
No worries. Thanks for watching.
My question is what can the rider do to teach the stallion this from his back? This is all you teaching him to stay away.
the point of this particular exercise, in my opinion and from what I'm seeing, is that this is step one of teaching a stallion boundaries. whether there was a rider or not likely wouldnt have mattered, but it is a good thing to show him that when he's being ridden, he needs to control himself, and the next step would be, as Warwick mentioned, to take him into a pasture of barren or in foal mares and let them chase him off so he understands whether theres a rider or not, humans on the ground or not, mares will chase him off and he needs to be respectful. It was less about the rider teaching him and more about him learning manners from mares.
Darn those hormones. 🙂
I love Warwicks inside into the horses nature and their instinctive behavior. I am concerned that this amateur rider is hanging on without even wearing a hard hat. Not safe.
That is her decision. Dont tell me what to wear on my head and I wont tell you what to wear on yours. Its like politics and religion, its not up for discussion.
Ok, here in the US it is very different. No hat, no lesson. Insurance will not cover if an accident occurs and a hat was not worn.
Thanks
@@BereiterFN2009 I happen to live in the US, been here since 1990. Once again, its ALWAYS been their choice.
BereiterFN2009 I do not think that she is an amateur at all
The only road block to the success of this method is getting other horsemen to be on the same page.
I have a dilemma. I have a mare and she is 4 years old (see profile pic) her name is kali and she is a Gelders paard its a dutch breed and she is a pure Gelderse and that is really rare because it’s al bred with other breeds so it’s important that there come more pure bred Gelderse and I want to breed here when she is around 7-9 years old so she has al the time to be a child because that is more important to me than a foal but it is fun and you can learn a lot from the experience you know and she is a really beautiful mare so her offspring would also be amazing but she can be hot and it is in the bloodline that they are hot but most of the time she is the sweetest little devil I have ever seen and she is really easy going because I can touch her belly and she doesn’t mind etc. but I’m 14 years old and I ride Sinds I was 4 so I got the Experience but what if I get a stallion the breed would really benefit from it because we could use it as a breeding stallion or just for riding and the breed is really stable in the head if you know what I mean. So my question is : if I get a stallion foal should i keep it a stallion or should I castrate him. ( i want to keep the foal btw it doesn’t matter if it’s male or female I really want to keep it)
I would castrate it, having stallions is not something for the inexperienced person.
WarwickSchiller oké thx for the advies 🐴
You are just as good a trainer as Clinton Anderson.
Better than Clint Anderson in my opinion.
@@carolley9705 I soooooo agree!!!
Laura Moy he’s a much better trainer
i always ride stallions and all my horses know what happend if they behave like that around other horses the mighty wip appears problem fix always work...
hecto m arriaga working w/ a well trained stallion now.. he's 7 just got him, and have yet to take him out in our pasture w/ mares.. got him standing still, no hollering less then 3 yards from them, but w/ a fence in between.. I want to take him on trail rides, how should I go about making him understand "when your under saddle, no breeding!!" Which like I said he's well trained and may already understand this.. but what can I do to reassure myself??
@@tommytom4834 try having someone hold a mare and walk them near eachother with the fence still in between. Get close and if all goes well do the same from further away with no fence(again with someone keeping the mare on a lead to ensure she stays back). Continue to do this getting closer and closer until you can walk right by without issue. Do this with several different mares to ensure he knows with everyone he needs to behave. If he does well you're most likely safe. I have never interacted with any stallions though, so my advice is only speculation. Good luck in your training.
do you like Clinton Anderson?
Is it easier than teaching one self control around a beautiful woman?
Well in my opinion, all this taught this horse that no matter the guy riding him, he can do what HE wants.... That's a very bad lesson. He shouldn't have been allowed to do all this while being rode...
I think the best way was to one rein stop him every time he looks towards the females... Don't you think?
nope. That doesnt change his mind about the mares, thatjust stops him from going over there. I'm trying to teach self control.
BAD HORSIE-STEVE VAI!
My friend has a technique - it was very effective for their stallion, but I think mine might go into shock if I tried it on him - when they're riding, if the stallion became aroused, they would take their reins and slap the stallion's penis. It didn't affect his desire to breed in the field, but it didn't take long for him to lose his desire while under saddle.
Again, not sure how much I endorse that method, it might end up with you on the ground and a wild stallion running loose...but it worked for my friend and his horse.
Omg sav
That horse looks so tired
that stud is too much horse for his rider.
I will just castrate my stallion. He is unridable right now.
And ur own horse is reacting to the flag
Im sure he took that mare of one of the clients.
Pictures sucks mate 2022 videos are better
Just my opinion but if you are doing group training like that, why the (heck) are you allowing a stud horse in as part of a group of "civilians"?
He'd have jolly well moved his feet if you'd been carrying a cattle prod instead of a nappy fluttering on a whippy stick.
Well he did "jolly well move his feet from my nappy fluttering on my whippy stick", as you saw by the end of the video.
The reason I allowed a stud horse in there as I was doing a problem solving clinic, and that was a problem the lady wanted solved, and by the nd, it was solved.
...after pushing the boundaries numerous times and not being deterred much by your nappy-on-a-stick routine. And my guess is if you got that same group of horses together today and marched that stud into the arena, you'd have the same problem with him.
So, you might have finally won that particular "battle" but I seriously doubt you made enough of an impression on that stallion that you taught him a permanent lesson and won the "war".
it is these kind of comments that makess me not want to read comments. obviously for the purpose of training!
ah yes, instead of doing things that make the horse think, just jab him with a cattle prod and fill him with electricity! That'll sure solve the problem and not unnecessarily hurt the animal!
You're pathetic. if you need a cattle prod to control a horse you're too damn stupid to be around horses.
Ever heard of the English language.... I can barely understand 1/2 jockey

I rescue/retrain /show and breed and also often rehome off the track Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds (For saddle and or harnessjockey show and or pleasure after retiring from being a decently successful jockey in UK/use/USA/new Zealand/⅝'!4 There is no county called Straya (it's Australia and you being from there and posting it on you tube for the WORLD to see try already to attempt the proper saying ). And theirs no such horse sex as. stayonne (it's a Stallion). It's irks the hell out of me when you kill you own countries cool accent by bastasrdisation of the basic words? Do they teach you to murder the English language in schools there ? If so it's disgusting!!! I was born in France and raised in the UK . I also due to my heritage speak Russian ,French, Belgian (family friends were Belgian so they taught me so I could join the mixture languages conversations they'd have so people wouldn't be nosing in on our private chats), German, Spanish , Italian and the true old real Romany languàges (the true old Romany spoken by the older European gypsy people) not the half murdered rubbish they try calling Romany these days ( of which the true old Romany speakers of the real and old Romany that my Grandpa who was Russian/Romany Gypsy/Hungarian/German mix (and only one of his 12 family members including his identical twin brother whom he was the only survivor from Auschwitz) my French/Spanish/Italian mix Grandma raised me and adopted me at 12. They'd had me since I was 8. They were my late father's parents.
I feel sorry for you. Im not sure if you realise it, but you too have a regional accent from wherever you grew up, and Im sure you aren't putting it on, it's just how you talk.
Giving mne a hard time about how I talk is almost like a form of racism.
@@WarwickSchiller..... Oh im sorry I didn't realise your a snowflake I thought your a tough acting Aussie which is the way your acting. I have a Parisian accent as that's where I'm from but I'm not such a snowflake that I can't take criticism . My English isn't fantastic but I listen and take advice don't try calling someone I've never met a rasist. If you want to talk about rasicm I'm Jewish and Romany talk to our people and over 2000 years of abuse before you baby talk about race. Get over your self man . You don't know shit about racisim.
Oh and I don't need a snowflake feeling sorry for me . Actually anyone feeling sorry for me. I've been riding since I was 4 . Jockey from 15 to 35. At 36 retired due to nearly being killed by a fool being greedy over racing his horse till he broke down mid race. Smashed my spine in 4 places. I can walk only just . But I rescue /rehome and retrain horses. All but a very few off the track.
Lowering your self to abuse me even more than my light asking you to more carefully pronounce your words as I want to learn from your videos as I believe you spend your whole life learning . If you don't want me learning from you I don't care but I'm not being rasist I'm saying very politely can you be a little more careful of your pronouncing. People who I teach ask me about my pronouncing here and there and I don't call it rasism I ask them to help me and they do because that's what is called constructive criticism. Oh look the French lady knows big English words.
I'm not abusing you. I'm trying to offer you help for your international fans. If you can't handle that you need to find something else to do than post on international video uploads sites. Maybe start your own page just for your own country if you can't handle it. Bye bye snowflake.
