*you need to change your name. You’re not clever if you support slavery, nor anything good nor a good person. You’re being horrible and gross. Why are you like this? Use your heart&brain. How would you like to be kidnapped, sold, bought, owned?*
and don’t put a heart emoji if you don’t even use your heart. What about your poor victims?!
Clever ? Yes. Hard working ? Extremely. Got to respect ? Definitely.
Big ditto.
Fr
I'm just wondering what Fr means. Would appreciate your reply. My curiosity has gotten the better of me. Thanks in advance for your reply.
Does it mean for real? 😆
Clever's skill and character of kindness really shines through in her videos. I just love her spirit. YOU GO GIRL
Patient is something we learn, we are not born with it. Your patients with these horses is what allows them to build trust in you. That is why your successful with them where others are not. Love can always build a bridge. ❤
❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😮😮😮😊😊😊😊💟💗💕♥️💞💓💫✨🐴😗💖🌈😇😚😙⭐🍵🦄🤩🦄🦄🏇🏇🐎🐎🐴🐴🙏🍯😍💒
oh yah she’s so kind that she supports slavery! And I agree go girl, straight to the therapist!
how would you like to be kidnapped, sold, bought, owned?
I've bought numerous 'untrainable' ponies and been given several. It started at the age of about eight, when - via my uncle (a farrier) - it became 'known' that his little niece could 'catch any pony or horse if you left her to it'. At that age, my parents refused the offers made to me of these many and various horses and ponies, only allowing me to accept 'rides', some of which became regular.
I'm now approaching 80 and can still remember every single horse or pony I've ever owned, and most of those I've ever ridden, even those I only rode once or twice.
This is beautiful, thank you for sharing 💙
@@AKindOfDog No, thank _you_ for the compliment! I've often thought I should write a list (with dates; some will be only approximate) of ALL the names and at least some sort of descriptor.
At nearly 80, your memory is amazing. 👏 I've never stopped to really think about all the horses that I've ridden. I'm going to try to do that and making a list as I go along. I'm coming up on 73 and my memory sometimes surprises me. I'll make my list and then come back to your comment and reply with my results. Thanks so much for sharing. 😊
At least everyone seemed to be trying to be honest with her even if they underestimated her and the horse (and it seems they were dead on about how difficult the horse was).
Love this❤
I was told a long time ago when I was doing a lot of grand prix jumping that "there isn't a rider for every horse or a horse for every rider." My trainer suggested that I work on finding the right horse and not the horse that another trainer said was well trained. I came across a lot of aggressive horses due to not bonding with their owner and being miss-trained by someone who didn't understand the concept of making a connection with the horse and bonding with them. I ended up with a thoroughbred mare that no one could get near. She and I bonded and I became her human. It was a wonderful and beautiful relationship until she passed away.
Thank you for sharing your story
You are more than a horse trainer-you are a horse therapist. Your experiences have taught you time & patience with animals that have been seen as difficult.
I totally agree!!!
You are a very special cowgirl. The world needs more people like you. I’m totally blown away with your level of patience, commitment and compassion. God bless you.❤
My jaw dropped when you said he was 6!! Wishing Goose all the best.
The sad part about Goose is all this time he has been jerked around/neglected by people.. Thank You for caring about him..
When that guy told you not to buy Goose l can imagine you saying “challenge excepted”, CC you most definitely proved him wrong, l don’t like being told what to do either, he’s a beautiful horse and it was so nice of his breeder to send you a photo of him along with his papers too, I bet Huckleberry loved helping you train him, this was a lovely video to watch, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
YES! The trader was actually one of the good ones and generally concerned about my welfare. He was also not the only one who came up to me at the sale to warn me. He came from a very reputable trainer that I am sure did not want to be responsible for any injuries.
*accepted
A wonderful horse trainer told me in a conversation that the biggest problem she noted training a horse was the failure to start from the beginning; The Clever Cowgirl will not need that caution, Good Job. 👍
I actually find that you are training me, not just the horses!
Me Too!
Me too!!
Absolutely ❤
Me too! I find myself channeling CC in other areas of my life; with great outcomes! Thank you!
What a beautiful story of love and patience. ❤
As a breeder, this is how I halter broke all my weanlings. I had a few older, unbroke horses come in like this, and it worked on them as well. The trust built by this process creates a horse that will lead anywhere, through anything, safely. So much better than tying them to a wall and letting them 'figure it out'. Great work!
Precisely!
@@opheliaelesse I hung out with horses from a world champion cutting horse stallion. You would I think they know better than to do something like that if they could train a horse and take him all the way to a world championship. But that's exactly what they did. 😐 They did tie an old tire to the wall and then tied the weanlings' halter rope to the other side of the tire so that there was some give. But it's the same thing to me. They could actually break their necks.
@@opheliaelesse A wooden wall gives if they bounce off it. Also, being solid, they won't get hurt on it, as they would, say, tied to a fence of some sort. If they try to climb up it, it won't hurt them, and they won't get entangled. It's a second best option to what is shown above. If you have one that absolutely won't tolerate any interaction with people, to the point of hurting themselves to get away, then the wall is the best option, as the horse won't get hurt, and no person will get hurt either.
It's inspiring the level of commitment you have for these beautiful horses, the work you put in pays off for both them and you. Anyone would want their horse in the hands of a gifted horse woman like you.
In my warm kitchen, watching you work these beautiful creatures while sitting at my table, no wind, no rain, no snow!!! Gosh, I am totally amazed and a bit shamed that there is such a girl out there working her buns off with these great horses, taking apparently no notice of the harsh elements!!!
Can I have heard correctly??? Did I understand you to say you have a full-time "real" job besides all that you are doing with the horses??? Totally mind blowing! 😯👏👍🏻😁
Have to add quickly, you are a very gifted and energetic person. Stumbling onto your videos has been such a pleasure!!! I doubt you ever have time to sit down, much less read through comments, so for other like-minded viewers out there, I am totally awed by what you do!!! And so pleased to see how God has blessed you with a strong body, infinite patience, great knowledge and two very helpful, furry assistants!!!
I have decided your videos are a must see every morning!!!
Hope there will be many more who think and appreciate you as I do!!! Blessings!!! ❤❤❤
I like to read the comments! It kind of feels rude not to! :)
Im 82, my dream was to own a hors we I lived with. Needless to say, dewam over. Watching your patience and love for this magnificent creature brings tears to my eyes. I can only live vicariously through you if you don't mind. You are amazing. @TheCleverCowgirl
I appreciate your sensitivity to your animals...tailoring their training to individual capabilities and needs . Your patience and kindness make all the difference to their healing and progress . This grandma is very proud of you !
❤️❤️❤️
I’ve been around horses all my life, but don’t have even a fraction of the skill, intuition and just natural horsemanship ability that you have. Every video I watch I am truly inspired by you and the absolutely wonderful way you are around all of these beautiful equines. Hats off to you beautiful lady and what you do to help these guys. All horse peeps could learn so much from you.
Thank you! That means alot to me!
I am looking forward to seeing Goose's story, he's a beautiful horse ❤
I love how gentle you are with the horses. How you take into consideration how each horse feels and reacts. Watching the horses I am overwhelmed how absolutely magnificent they are. Brilliant job!!
I love that you renamed him Goose, allowed him to be brave through natural curiosity and took the extra time and effort to save another horse from a (possibly short) life of fear. I also love how I feel watching your videos and I enjoy following your journey. Thanks for showing how things can be, and for making sure Tiny is in every video. ❤
And just look how sweet that 'aggressive' horse Leonard is with you right way, responding to your love and compassion!
Goose is another lucky kid. As is Whiplash, Skeletor, Scarlet, et al. I am glad you were able to get his papers. It makes a difference when you know the lineage. Understanding the back story of the bloodlines is relevant to the individual you are working with. The person who gave me my guy had no trouble GIVING me the horse, but they wanted $1200 for his papers. When I wouldn't pay up, they threw them away. Petty & Spiteful. Very happy Goose's breeder didn't play that game with you.
Yup, people still do that, kind of silly
I also thought that knowing Gooses bloodlines was an interesting approach to understanding his personality and quirks! I haven’t heard that mentioned by any other trainer
Agreed!
Really lovely to see you up on him. Love Goose. Love you for posting.
Refusing to sell papers with a horse, or selling the papers seperately is actually illegal where I live. If you know who he is, you could order a new set from the registry.
People are so weird.
Knowing people as kind as you are gives me hope for our planet. Thank you.
Thank God for your patience and understanding. you mean the world to these mishandled and misunderstood horses. thank you for your devotion.
When people claim a horse is irredeemable, I find it usually is a lie they feel they need to tell themselves to make themselves feel better for giving up on that horse in the face of their own limitations, ego, and failure. Glad you have the attitude you do. Goose is certainly a complicated boy. He is absolutely gorgeous, interesting breeding.
Ever notice that it is mostly men who say a horse is untrainable? Just saying!
Oh my. I laughed so loud when you said I really dont like people telling me what to do. You remind me me so much of me. Sometimes by being this way ok. I effed up once. But a divorce fixed that. Lol. My first horse Thundercat was underweight had lice worms rain rot was still a stallion tied in a yard with a 50 foot rope. He would chase the guys wife from the car to the house. Looked like a large pony. But for 175. Dollars . I couldnt leave him . He got bathed turned out at my sisters place on grass. Got bathed with proper shampoos grained and after a month. Gelded and shots. What he grew into was amazing. Almost 15 hands and smart as all get out. 2nd day on him in the ring a dog chased a cat from the side of the ring and he just hopped sideways about 4 feet stopped and looked at them and just walked on . That I think I told you was Libertys ThunderCat. So yeah dont tell me I cant. Lol. Because we can.
Watching your videos is pure joy. I could watch you train horses all day! Your wisdom, kindness, and patience are incredible and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work!
Uber agree!!!
You are right about Hancock horses. My husband is a cutting horse trainer, he had a Hancock he trained, that horse was tough for him. You also had to introduce yourself to him every day, he was also a big a big snorter. My husband got him trained. And the owners love him.
Major kudos to CC for her patience and kindness. Goose is a lovely horse and just needed that bit extra.
He's such a pretty horse. Goose is in good hands.
Your approach is a heart warming process to witness. You're the future of what's possible in horse training and I hope a generation of young trainers learn from your patience and kindness!
Wouldn’t that be great!
Wow, I was blown away by the patience, kindness and understanding you showed Goose. I wish there were more people like you.
Goose is so beautiful ❤️
Very few people have the time, patience and understanding to work with a horse like Goose. Your stories are inspiring and I learn a lot from your channel. Thank you for sharing!
Training "at risk" animals is all about repetition, observe, repeat, observe -- Rome wasn't built in a day. Lots of Shepherds end up in rescue, just like Goose. I'm appreciating your gift of patience!
Your pateince is fantastic. My first horse was Hancock's Time. Bought him fir a dollar in BC from a guy who had got him from a friend in Wyoming. He was dead lame and required some big tlc. I had no idea of his history. He was a super well trained cow horse. I was a teen who had no clue and no ssddle. We worked it out and he was a fantastic 1st horse. Built like Goose. 14.2 solid and super handy.
Horses are not a "one size fits all" creature. They all have their own personalities and that has to always be kept in mind while training them. You are wonderful with horses. Please keep it up. There are so many who need you.
Goose was MANhandled. Sad..
You are so kind & patient.
He could've equally been WOMAN handled as some women are just as bad. Actually quite a few.
I just adore your approach! It's exactly the way I always approached the 'problem' horses or the misunderstood/abused ones. The people who think they are too difficult just don't have the patience, the stamina or the courage to get through the tough spots. Often the issues they come with are because of bad training and aggressive riding or just flat out abuse. But you really take the time with each horse to figure them out like an onion, slowly peeling back the those layers and getting the root of the issue and built them back up with courage and confidence, that is HUGE. It's such a pleasure to watch. You really find some amazing horses at auction! I wish we lived closer! I would love to come by and give you a hand. Even though you ride Western and I ride Dressage/jumpers, horsemanship and training is all the same at the root. I wish more people realized this and took this approach. It's often nice to have another set of eyes on a situation and on the ground in case things get hairy, I wish you. had someone to help out more!
I'm currently looking for a property to do something similar to what you're doing. Starting off super small, just saving, who I can, rehab/training, rehoming. And give forever homes to the ones who are not able to find forever homes elsewhere. Watching you really inspires me to get moving!! You are wonderful! Love watching you work!! Goose is adorable! My rescue cat is named Goose too! lol Good luck with him, I think he's going to surprise you and turn out to be a really great horse! He's got great muscle on him from the get-go! Can't wait to see what you do with him!!
Horsey hugs from Montreal!
That’s awesome!
Wow !! I’m hoping that you vid your Rescue and update us !! I’d love to help you get started !!! You and CC are the type of Equestrians that are way to seldom !!!! I wish I had half the talent !!!
@@leanneadams2549 I definitely will! I'm in Canada, would love some assistance! It's been a life long dream! That's why I love watching this channel! CC is so amazing with her horses, I don't see rescues that put this much time, love and energy into their horses. She really inspires me. Thanks so much for the kind words!! The more people working at keeping horses out of the pipeline the better!!
No problem!! Looking forward to seeing your set up soon !!! ❤️🐴
You knew you have the patience to work with him. He’s gorgeous.
Always remember self care. Burn out is real ❤
Patience is a true virtue and a kind way to develop that needed relationship with a horse, or really most misunderstood and traumatized animals. Thank you.
I got my first horse at age 10. Now I'm 75. Love my horses. Young Lady you have proven to me; "It is possible to teach an old dog new tricks". Always enjoy your video and learn.
Thank you Cowgirl for going as slow as you need to with each horse and voicing Goose's positives, as well as challenges.
Trouble dealing with actual humans? Same, Goose. Same.
I was kinda thinking the same thing! I hate people, lol! (Not you of course, lol)!
I was wondering about Goose. He's such a beautiful quarter horse and reminds me of friend's with similar markings. He is so lucky you saved him. You are exceptional, highly skilled, knowledgeable and sensitive, always thinking about the animals first. Truly an angel. Thank you for sharing, CC.
I REALLY wanna see this! I love your videos! Looking forward to seeing his future training!
It’s interesting to me that there can be such a huge difference between the trainability of different horses. Some like Goose are far beyond the average in difficulty. It’s admirable that you have taken on this task and are continuing with him. I’m very proud of you! I’d be interested to see how far you can take him, and to see if you can eventually find him an owner who is a good match. He’s a handsome guy.
I thought Goose and Leonard were the perfect juxtaposition!
Congratulations, my goodness what a transformation! Compared to when you bought him he is just a different animal altogether which is great credit to you personally. Dan
Your patience pays off. Makes me sad for all the horses that people don’t take the time.
Horses are like people in that we learn at different paces and what works for one won't work of another. Goose is so pretty!
Thank you for sharing. Love the work you do
What a cutie! Great work! I loved how he kept his nose on you while you were working on his hoof
So rewarding to see Goose’s progress. Your patience is is such a gift to these horses. Thanks for posting
Life is too short to always play it safe in choosing your horses...Believe what your ❤ tells you..Not what others say...Goose is gorgeous....
clever cowgirl!!!!! loved this video we are so lucky you share and document so much.
I love your videos! You're sensitive, introspective comments are so easy to relate to. I can tell you really know your horses and how to give them what they need. You're a joy to listen to. The longer, the better!❤
Thank you so much!
This is why it’s important to understand that it’s usually the humans that have the problem. Crazy what patience does! Amazing job!
You are the "Horse Whisperer" . You are so good with all the horses you have helped! So patient and so kind! It's so sweet how they bond with their buddy. Even with Huckleberry! So sweet, everyone needs a friend. They've come a long way, and they look great! Good job girl! Keep doing what you're doing, you were born to do this! Thanks for sharing! ❤
These poor animals that have such extreme fear. Thank goodness there are people like you to help them through this! Thank you for your hard work❤️
Thanks for sharing Goose's story! It was really interesting. He's extremely lucky you bought him and have given him the time he needs to mature mentally! ❤
Your calm, patience and understanding wins these horses over, for sure. The backdrop in this video, in the summer I assume, is just spectacular. I live along the Rockies in Canada, and you just can't beat that shimmer the air has when you look out at those mountains.
I’m never going to leave your channel I absolutely love what you’re doing with the hard to train horses, the easier one are like the icing on the top lol. Thank you I’m learning a lot that I’m transferring to my own horse. You’re not only saving the ones you get but our own horses too. Beautiful! ❤
The easy ones make me feel like a really fantastic horse trainer, the tougher ones having questioning if I know anything at all🤣
That’s so true! it’s not you more than often it’s the damage other humans have done. Through ego and ignorance.
If possible could you show how you teach ground tying especially to a sensitive horse and also because its one of your initial training steps please? I really admire the patience/kindness you give to your horses at all levels of their learning/handling. I respect that you take the time to notice their feelings and let them work thru it vs an "agenda" to get it done as fast as possible, at the expense of the horse. Thank you for sharing your experiences/knowledge.
I’ll put it on the list!
Goose is a Godsend!! My Uncle and I Go To Auctions and we bought wild horses and my uncle trained and transformed them and it all works out for the best!! You are very CLEVER!! That's why you gave yourself that name!!❤😊❤!!
He is beautiful! My heart goes out to horses like this. He is lucky he ended up with you.
You are an amazing trainer! How these horses respond to you eventually, is unbelievable!
Wow you are so perceptive in your approach to training these so called untrainable horses. Thank goodness for you, who knows what future these horses would have if not for your creative training techniques and kindness.
I’m really impressed by your style of training. You can see the personality and feelings of these horses and you customize the training accordingly. You’re amazing.
Please remember Pete and Goose. They need love too.
I was totally amaze balls when you said he was two because that's the most developed two year old I've ever seen. So it makes sense that he was actually six. What a beautiful animal so athletic. if he had the right handling when he was very young the way you do it, you'd probably could have put him in your back pocket and done anything with him. Can you imagine him in reining competition?
Your knowledge of brain body physiology is so critical to understand the behaviors of these horses. I knew horses had a blind spot in their vision, but your chart really explained it so much better and it makes sense to me now that every time you do something on one side of the horse, you have to also do it on the other side.
These animals are reaping the benefit of all your intense efforts to study physiology and understand how to deal with the horse based on that. It says so much about your desire to do everything you can to help a horse.
I was wondering what his lineage is. I'm glad that you showed that. I don't know anything about the Hancock line or the bottom line that you mentioned but I'm going to go study them. I have found that three bars lines are hot but Leo lines are good-minded. I used to ride two and three-year-olds from a world champion cutting horse stallion that were absolutely steady, even a stallion. Peppy San was the grandsire. That line goes back to Zantanan and comes forward with all hard working horses. I think they made breeding stock choices based on the mind as well as conformation/athleticism.
It's very important to understand what line you're buying into. If you're going to get a registered horse, you're going to pay more, but you can have expectations based on the breeding. It pays off to do your homework. I didn't and I ended up selling my three bars gelding because all he wanted to do was run races. In the arena he had a rocking chair trot that you could sit sideways without a saddle. But try to put him in a lope and he was gone. Took him on the Chisholm trail ride in Ft. Worth when he had been under saddle for 3 months. That was one heck of a ride! Wasn't I crazy? 😂 To be fair. I asked the trainer if he thought it was a good idea before I took him on the trail and he said oh yeah he'll be a different horse when you get him back. He wasn't. LOL But I was! 🎉
I still feel bad about letting him go after I put so much time into him on the ground and broke him to saddle. Then took him to two trainers and then let him go. I wish I'd had somebody like you around to help me through it. Such is life.
I have to give him credit though. He gave me one of the most magical days of my life. The first time I rode him it was miraculous, because he went straight into a trot for me. He would turn left and right. I turned him to the left and put him into a lope. He picked up his left lead and I brought him back down to a walk and then a trot and asked him to pick up his right lead and he did. My cues were light and barely there. First ride. First time he'd ever been under saddle with a human on him. It doesn't get any better than that. I should have named him black magic. Winning blue ribbons (different horse) doesn''t even come close.
OH my Sweet, the comments to your video's are so heartwarming to read. After reading them I almost always think, I wish I had said that!!!! So ditto to all of the comments. I am so impressed with you because you are as open to these horses emotional needs as a "good" therapist who treats humans who have experienced trauma, which is almost all of us. Thanks so much for your heart and for posting your inspiring and heart warming videos. Namaste' from Humboldt County, California.
Ditto! ❤
Those horses are so beautiful. I enjoy seeing their transformation in appearance, health and training.
Goose's story is beautiful! His baby pictures are adorable and the pic of him carrying the bowl in his mouth made me smile so much
Gmorning from Seattle
This is a fascinating story. Thank you for sharing it. Every one of your horses’ stories is remarkable. They enrich our appreciation of them and you. They’re all wonderful and you are extraordinary!! ❤️
Goose is a gorgeous horse! He is so blessed for you to have found him and helped him overcome his fear. You are fantastic!
sending you guys so much love
I've never had any horse experience but this is super interesting. Kudos for taking care of these souls.
I love your patience & loving care you give your horses. You're basically saving them from kill buyers. God bless you 👏😇
Quiet calm equine conversation. Just wonderful to watch.
Thank you for taking on the so called Untrainables! Much respect!!
LOOK AT YOU GO!!! I love your videos. I cannot help comparing this to abused and neglected children. I won't keep belaboring the point, but the similarities are so obvious to me. You are exactly where you are meant to be, doing exactly what you are meant to do. I'm so glad to see your subscriptions going up. Congratulations!
Fascinating transformation. I'm so glad people like you with hearts of compassion are willing to take on these beautiful horses. It warms my heart. Thanks!
Can’t wait for next one! I’ve always loved horses but have never had the opportunity to even learn to ride or be around them. Now at 67 I’d say will never happen. But I love watching you work with these beautiful horses. Amazing, inspiring for younger people who care as much as you.😘🙏🏻❤✨
Lots of respect to you CG you’re beautiful and have lots of compassion ❤towards the horses needs. You’re Amazing! 💯
Thank you for sharing Gooose story with us ❤🐴✝️🙏
You’re a joy to watch helping these deserving horses.. your patience, compassion, and skill is wonderful 🙏🏻
That is one RED fellow!
Poor Goose, so glad you found him. Horses take immense patience.
Thank you for taking the time to record and share. Looking forward to seeing Goose grow mentally. 🤗
Fun waking up to this. Great work!
He is so beautiful!
Kitty cat! Love the kitty cat. And the dog. And of course, Goose and his buddies. Thank you for being so kind and persistent.
Clever is just one of the many qualties you demonstrate in this video: empathy, compassion, patience, belief, resilience being just a few more.
I will definitely stick around. You are so patient and knowledgeable with these horses.
Your channel has really opened my eyes to how sensitive and individual horses are. It's a beautiful thing ❤
Fascinating! Thank you! I wonder why Goose was so resistant. I guess it doesn’t matter at this point; it’s same reason other abused horses take longer to teach. It was interesting when you talked about the contrast between him and someone like Leonard.
Goose is a gorgeous horse and you are so patient with him. When i saw his papers I thought "double bred Hancock"! Thats why hes the way he is!
I’m not a quarter horse person, but have noticed the Valentine and Hancock lines and like they way they are put together, but also heard they can be difficult, so as soon as I saw Hancock, I knew why I liked Goose. I am too far over the hill to be breaking horses, but I have a 16H 22 year old mule out of a standardbred mare that I bought at an Amish sale when he was 18 months old. Before that I had a Morgan, and my daughter has one now, who she bought at 12, just gelded, and now is 25, so I have two old boys in my pasture. I admire your work ethic and patience and compassion with the horses you save.
Good luck to you and Goose!
Hard work and commitment give Goose a fighting chance. Thank you for giving him the time he needed.
I think you’ve nailed it when you talk about vision. In my experience, horses that bolt or shy usually have issues with sight. If you’re on the flight side of the animal kingdom, when you can’t trust your vision it makes sense to always choose to get the heck out of there. Bravo to you for your patience and skill.
