I was not expecting that reaction from him the first time - but I’m so glad I was wearing my GoPro 😬

  • Considering his reaction to every ‘deadly’ stream we’ve encountered, I was pleasantly surprised with the way he handled that river 😂

    lol Be careful about him learning to lie down (and roll) in the water. My mother had a mare who loved to do that-she'd wade out, paw the water, then drop down into it, regardless of who was or wasn't on her back. She taught her daughter to do it, too.

      My old mare would do this - she’d drop down in any puddle or mud spot we’d come across 🥲 I got quite good at jumping off very quickly but my poor saddle 😭

    Like so many horses, it’s the tiny little streams,no more than a trickle, that freaks them out! 😂😂😂😂

      YES! But WHY? I'm 85 and still haven't learned why creeks scare horses.
      I've experienced this. Immensely puzzling! When my my black Arab and I were both 'green'. Tarby and I would easily go into the lagoon waters. Later in the apple orchard we found a rainwater ditch; the trickle was no more than Three inches wide, maybe One inch deep.
      It took half an hour, coaxing, trying to bribe [which did Not work on this horse!], pulling......and finally! I hollered "Tarby, it's only WATER. GET OVER HERE!"
      Well, he did. He jumped way up and would have landed 'in my arms' literally had I not jumped at the same time! Without quite understanding how I got up there, I ended up IN the apple tree, Tarby's reins tangled in its branches. He just stood there wide-eyed and still. We just stared at each other.
      Survivors! The rest of the ride through beautiful Sonoma County apples and grapes...just terrific.

    My cousin had a horse that hated to cross streams. He would jump, buck, rear, then finally hop across. But give him a pond? He'd go deep enough that only his head was out. The field that had the pond was fenced for horses and he couldn't be left in it. Even in the winter he'd try to swim, but keep those deadly streams from him!

    I rode my horse behind some girls yo a farm pond, and my horse surprised me by plunging in on his own before i asked. We all swam across and it was amazing to feel him swimming. I think he enjoyed this. But farm ponds are dangerous. I met a poor kid whose horse went through the ice. The horse drowned in front of him as he got out. He was very traumatized!!

    There’s a horse at my barn who does this with all water. He used to be training to be a Grand Prix jump horse where they would put electricity in water and make them jump over it. If they touch the water they would get shocked. Poor thing still has PTSD from it.

    I was lucky enough to take my horse to both a lake and the ocean a long time ago, neither of which were in her daily life. She wanted to gallop into the incoming waves and head out into the lake, complete with saddle and me. I had to discourage her.....but at the ocean, she continued to gallop along in the incoming waves. Salt water isn't too good for leather boots or saddles, I learned.

    At least he didn't lie down in the middle of the river without warning as my horse used to.....My boy acted like it was a treacherous stream too, until he was in the middle, the deepest part, then he'd plot down. I miss him terribly. He was a loveable trickster, and he saved my life.

    Funny boy.
    I had a horse who loved water. She would stick her head deep in the water bucket, up to her eyes, and blow bubbles. If we went across a stream I had to lead her or else she'd stop in the middle and lie down to roll in it.

  • @kingghidorah8106
    @kingghidorah8106 Месяц назад

    My guess is that the horse is afraid of the uneven and muddy floor on the little streams, these are extremely slippery, whereas on the river the rocks are clean and especially in rivers with a current when there is no layer of greenery, the rocks are a solid grip to step on. Many of a horse's fears revolve around stepping on bad floor and falling and consequently badly hurting themselves. They're well aware of how fragile they have been built.
