One of the biggest reasons I am 100 percent devoted to your channel and have stopped watching most "blue ribbon" trainers is that you always consider the whole horse and never automatically blame any issues you have with them first on their behavior. Horses don't think and reason and plot. They remember and they react. Thank you so much for being you. 73 yo lifelong horsewoman here, and have learned a whole world of excellent information from you.
It has always been a wonder why more women are not more visible as horse trainers; they are as good if not better. ☮
💯 agree!
I am a non horse person but I have been watching Steve Young for a long time. I know that he has to rush during his sessions due to time constraints. I would be very interested in your opinion of his technique. Me and a couple of his other followers used to suggest to a particular rescue about how to use licks to help their farrier. But they really got their back up. The suggest made sense to me, but they didn't even consider it as far as I could see. Also, I've never seen another person use his theories about not wearing sunglasses and only looking at the horse's feet to keep things nonconfrontational. He only works with bad cases so maybe that's why people with only slightly fractious horses don't need to use his techniques? I really am interested in what you think about it. Thank you in advance.
Absolutely! I love watching this channel. You always state what you are doing and why. Love that you take so much care with each one.

I watch his channel too and like it. I enjoy the way C.C. does her work which is longer in time duration. Steve Young is more emergency work or at an impasse where his work is a catalyst to help and quickly. Woking with horses is as much an art as anything.
Don't pay any attention to internet demands. You are the one that spends her days with those horses, a former vet tech, and a knowledgeable horsewoman. I would watch you for a year and never worry about your decisions when it comes to them. I'm down for whatever, chores and feeding, training, auctions, and riding when you are ready. You go girl!
I am sure you will find the BEST new owner/ forever home you can find for Ziggy. It just is happening quickly because he was in pretty good shape and appears to be 99% trained. All the better for him to go to that hopefully, final happy, loving home. I am glad it won't be right away.
Totally agree … give horses time to heal and build trust… please don’t listen to people you do an amazing job!
Ziggy is such a handsome horse. He looks worlds better since you acquired him. You’ve done a wonderful job with him, as is to be expected. I know less than zero about horses, but enjoy watching your expertise in all the areas of horse rehabbing!
You're right about not riding them too soon. Screw the know it alls!!
Don't worry about the Kens and Karens and do you. Thanks for all the great videos.
The cost breakdowns for Ziggy would be great CC, when you have the time.
😊👍
I think you made the right choice not to ride him right away. You've built a relationship with him before riding him. You let his body recover. Plus made sure he is healthy. Add to that too let him mentally recover from what had to be traumatic. He moved from a place he knew to an auction then transported to a complete stranger.
💯 agreed
👍
He has a Spectacular tail length for an Arabian!!!!!!!!
I completely agree. Win the trust!
I like the way you think. Through my lifetime living with horses, I’m in agreement with everything you have done with Ziggy. You’ve turned him out so well. He’s a lucky guy to have you. ❤
I think Ziggy is a little hidden gem for some little girl or boy , after a tune up after you know he is not going to explode , he is so mellow . I think you have done a wonderful job with him. He might even be a great therapy horse for some human ?? !!♥
There is no shortage of humans needing therapy 😉
Agree!!
Yes agree, a therapy horse . Ziggy is so gentle and noble !
on pourrait pas trouver à ce ravissant cheval qq de plus fun qu un job de thérapeute ou pour un gosse qui ne le gardera pas parce qu il aura grandi ? ????????
reflechissez un peu !
@@francinpascaline3750Yes please! I totally agree!
I can't imagine how some people think you don't know exactly what you're doing when you're rehabbing these auction horses! But this 67 year old horse woman hasn't seen one misstep. In fact she's learned a hell of a lot by watching your videos!! Well done, CC!🐎💜🐎
Agreed! ❣️🍀
Exactly!
💯
Count me in too, C.C. is among the best 👍
💯 agree!!
Nothing sweeter than the nicker greeting he offered you. He is so fortunate to have intersected with your kindness
I agree. Rode the day before he didnt pull away, but rather nickered the next day.
Ziggy has completely transformed - like the others. Healthy, confident, happy, and cared about. What an amazing thing you do for these horses. . .
I know ! Isn’t it just amazing to watch !!!
I’m a 74 retired horse owner. I love watching the care and detailed attention you give your horses. Your patience and attention to nutrition and balance show so much in your well cared for horses!!! Keep on going - we all love watching!
yes and we want her to get to 100k then 1 million. we want her to get sponsors and possibly create an education program to give her more time and revenue to do her good work. she’s amazing. ❤
Me too...endurance riding on my mule was my highpoint! This girl is a fantastic horse handler! Love the channel!
It is frustrating to hear people think it would be at all a good idea to jump on a horse that just came from an auction....good lord the hell they go through and the fact diseases or illnesses that can crop up days after they come to you is a huge reason to let an animal decompress...Unbelievable! your channel, at least to me, is about the whole way to care for a rescue horse...all of it, and it shows... your horses are well fed and cared for happy and beautiful.....LOVE THIS CHANNEL ❤
Agreed!!! I could never hop on a new horse once they are home.
Ppl are so excited to have bought a horse and can't wait to ride the poor animal that they give no first thought or consideration to its comfort. Talk about dumb airheads.
I wish you had been around 50 years ago when I bought two extraordinarily patient horses, we made a lot of mistakes together, learned a lot of stuff together, but no one out there was giving a masterclass in horse care, and after watching your show I can see how I could have done a lot of things differently and better. I think you are making a difference for a lot of new horse owners, keep it up, it is wonderful that you focus on horse care and upkeep, rather than the riding part, I always spent many more hours brushing and hanging with my boys than I ever did riding them, your show is the only one that focuses on the hard work involved rather than the fun stuff.
@brendacooper5729. Your post is great, C!ever Cowgirl is so knowledgeable and digs into proper horse care so well. I am 68 years old and have wanted a horse since I was 3 but could not get it to happen for me and I gotta say, I for sure had no business owning horse! I think what I learned from horses came from the old westerns my dad and I watched. I am glad now my dream did not materialize!
Thank you for your post, Brenda. I wish CC was around years ago, too. More like 30 years for me. I had a wonderful gelding and owned him until I needed to put him down at 25. Like you said, not a lot of people around giving a master class on horse care. I had one class on equine nutrition in college. Doesn't come close to what I'm learning from CC. I wish I knew these things back then. I could have done things differently and much better for my gelding, especially in his older years. It makes me sad somwtimes to think about some of these things I could have done for him so much better. Thank you a bunch CC.❤
@@djbrockman8389 I'm 72 and have always felt the same way - I didn't ever push the horse-owning part because I knew that I didn't know everything I needed to know. I've always loved to be around horses or ponies and feel comfortable in a saddle but am just as happy brushing or combing. 🙂
Neither artificial intelligence nor artificial general intelligence will be able to train a horse.
I am an elder and I still find comfort in that.
I wish that CC was around when I was working horses!! I wish that I had known at least half of what I have learned on this channel❤️
People who patronize dude ranches generally” don’t know what they are doing” is probably the biggest understatement I’ve heard in a long time! 😂
Even worse for those poor horses for rent at beaches, campgrounds, etc. I feel so sorry for them!
It was neat to see him nicker at you the day after riding him. It was like he decided to trust you and become friends. I think maybe the ride bonded him.💗💗
Yes, I observed this 'nickering' to, a sign of bonding, friendship!
Pls consider subscribing.
This Cowgirl channel is THE best equine channel on YT.
I think it’s THE best channel, period.
No one cares more for their horses than Cowgirl.
Over time, u’ll c what I c.
Absolutely!
I've shown or told about this channel to all of my friends and family, and keep them updated on what's happening!
I have told everyone about it too and some of the things I’ve learned from CC. So yes there are those of us spreading her channel with you.
I picked up a thrown away neglected small Appaloosa pony at age 20 . After rehab , my girls shown him lightly until he was 28 . He was fearless and could do anything. He was with me until he passed away at 43. I was going to pass on him but my 8 year old wore me down. I believe in 2nd chances .
43!😮 That is absolutely amazing! Wow! What a touching story! So glad he found a safe & loving home with you💝🎁💖
Good work! 👍
Wonderful story!
I'm wearing a down vest and the camera adds 10lbs. That was epic😂😂
And she's still tiny!!!!! Good God who ever said this lady was too big for a horse....the only one she's too big for is Nigel!!!! Lol
Anyone who has raced bicycles or motorcycles knows that saving weight is crucial to performance and in endurance riding weight is an important consideration too.
Ziggy!! Yes! He looks so much better and stronger. What a sweet guy💕 Love how you rehab and tailor what you do for the individual horses needs.
Agree! ❣️🍀
Thanks for uploading so consistently! Your videos have become part of my routine, they’re so relaxing and enjoyable to watch 💖 Ziggy is such a beautiful boy, it’s been a joy watching his rehab
Same here i've been watching every video for a couple months and got very inspired! Found a few horse rescues and farms that might need some help with grooming and going to volunteer this summer, i'm beyond excited!
Your voice is SO soothing. It must really help in communication with the horses ❤
I really hate hearing that people are hassling you- whether it's about you riding horses, the time you take to rehab them, or any other complaint they have. Like, where do these people get off on it?
I literally have never seen a horse RUclipsr so devoted, intune, selfless, and... clever (forgive the pun 😂).
Don't let the comments from the plebeians get to you.
I literally tune in as quick as I can every time I see you upload because you are a source of positivity, and I am constantly inspired by how much you show care, compassion, and utter devotion to your animals.
Please don't let the hate comments get you down.
You are loved, and seen for what you do ❤ 🐎
Also Ziggy looks awesome!
Yes, ignore these people. Some people know it all!!!!! Not.😂😂😂😂
Many others have already said this, but for what my 2 cents are worth (not even 2 cents -- lol) you are obviously a knowledgeable and caring horse person, AND you bought Ziggy and have poured care and $$ into him and so it is up to you to decide when it is time to ride him. I wish every equine involved person would be even half as concerned and fair as you toward their horses -- the horses would live such better lives. You and Ziggy are adorable together; I love how much more lively he looked while you were riding him. He clearly has a work ethic and enjoys his job. Whatever decisions you end up making for Ziggy, he has already hit the jackpot of care and consideration becoming your horse, if only even for a couple of months. Thank you so much for what you do for so many mistreated horses and sharing their journey with you with us. I just love watching your channel and learn so much from you.
Glad we could see Ziggy. I missed seeing him frequently. Thank you for giving him time & space to relax. We can all understand how wonderful that is.
Why are people pestering you to ride Ziggy? I don't understand it. Is it so crazy to give a horse time to settle in, make sure he's not sick, get the weight back on that he needed and build trust. Everyone is in such a hurry to jump on board. You are right to wait until now.
It's really nice to see a "just Ziggy" video ~ he's a beautiful horse, and so much better than when you first brought him home.
Beautiful video! The situation with Ziggy focused on his work and the mare having a fiesta on the other side of the fence is so funny! ☺❤
I also love the gentle way you treat your horses to make them feel comfortable. Please take all the time you need and don't let people who think they know it better put you off your path. Your happy animals are living proof that you are doing it right! 😊
💯 agree!
I always watch the horse to tell me about the trainer. Watching C.C. is seeing good dialogue between a horse and a human.
Didn't want to say anything about Ziggy's absence--so glad he's doing well!!
Every you tube site that I enjoy watching, gets people making ignorant comments from people who don't know anything about animal husbandry. You're great! Keep on goin girl! ❤️
If I were ten years younger I would take Ziggy in a minute. I had my little grey Arab for 21 years before I lost him at 24. We logged thousands of miles on Ohio trails and he changed a lot of peoples opinions of Arabs.
I have never understood the aversion to Arabians. My horse was so good and kind. His personality was so vibrant. Sure he had his likes and dislikes. And he could be jealous. But he always took care of me on the trail .
@@debrabiderman4275 its because they don't respond to "cowboy" training well; so people blame the horse.
I had an Arab mare who was a total airhead. But she knew she was pretty!
I worked with Arabians and once you do your attraction to them is complete
@@debrabiderman4275 Kit (GHSteel) hated plastic bags unless they contained carrots and he was always suspicious of trash cans but he, too, always took care of me on the trail. And he was super careful around little kids, I have a picture of him being led around the horsecamp by my two year old granddaughter with his head lowered to her level so he could see her. I miss him so much.
Hi, C.C. Ziggy is a handsome boy. He is blossoming under your gentle care❤️
Ziggy is a handsome old gentleman. Thank you for saving him!
I’m going to say it again, you are such a good horse mom. I am so thankful that you do what you think is best and ignore what other people think they know about your horses.
Now in my 80's I have to ignore a fair few aches and pains in order to get my jobs done too! Such things come with the turf!
With consistent riding and lots of love/pampering, I think Ziggy will be awesome! He is a gorgeous boy! ❤
I've been waiting for this! The people criticizing you must be the ones who have no patience, want to rush an animal along and get angry when they don't get instant perfection. What's the big hurry, anyway? The at-risk horses you save need time to get over whatever they left behind - trauma, being hauled and banged around at auctions, harsh handling, etc, transition into their new, wonderful lives, and learn to trust you. Ziggy may be a little "roly-poly"😄 but he looks great thanks to you. That gorgeous Arabian head and tail I just love him!😍❤❤
Good morning from Miami FL 🙋🏼♀️ Ziggy is so handsome & sweet. Can’t wait till he meets his 4-legged family!🐎
I would love to see a video on the cost breakdown ❤
Good morning! 🙋♀️🇨🇦 Ziggy is looking fantastic!
Ziggy really is a beautiful horse. I love his face.
No mistakes getting Ziggy! He's going to make someone a perfect partner. ❤
Yes I could tell a huge difference in his coat very nice 🎉
He’s so sweet and has an extremely wise eye.
I can definitely see how much better he looks ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You have acquainted us with the personalities of all of your horses. I really enjoy that, they are all so beautiful.
Jepp, he definitely looks much better than the day you brought him home. I really do like him a lot. And btw, I absolutely love your characterisations of all of your horses. I think it is because you have seen a lot of horses living and working under a lot of circumstances so you have an idea of what their former life looked like. And I love how you take all of this into account when dealing with each horse.
Robin, I am so glad to know that I'm not the only one to think all the right things are being done to insure Ziggy's well being!!! You can't rush these things. Patience is the key!!! WAY TO GO, COWGIRL!!!
You really do like Ziggy don’t you? You look so cute on him he looks like a really good boy. I do worry about your back jumping up on him like that with no help. Just be careful if you don’t hurt yourself again because we miss you and we love you. You are the best teacher.
I've had Arabs before and love them. But mine were bigger boned, more robust types, 15 and 15.5 hands. I'm petite myself and actually prefer Ziggy's size and classic conformation. Very nice horse!
Ziggy is such a dainty boy, he really does look so different from the others with his Arab structure.
What a difference in his condition, he looks so much.
What an absolutely STUNNING day in Montana!❤😍🌄 Ziggy is looking sooo elegant! He reminds me of a professional dancer...very finally tuned. He moves like a dream!❤
It seems to me that Ziggy isn't just your "property." You and the Zigmeister have become respectful of each other, and I think now you both are Friends.
Zigmeister! I love it!
No one should ever question CC on her care / reasons for what she does or doesn't do for her horses. Ziggy looks fantastic ❤❤❤ i could never sell him 😢😢 but that's just me😊
I am absolutely enjoying all your videos! I am making it through all your posted videos.😊❤❤ I am learning such interesting information that I will probably never put to use 😂😂
Thank you for explaining the chiropractor issue. 👍
Too many people think if they or an animal gets adjusted it’s going to fix everything. 🤦♀️
Ziggy would take every blue ribbon in a horse show. He just floats when he trots, and he looks so proud and beautiful. CC, you have done a wonderful job with him. Thank tou for teaching us about him.
Ignore the stupid comments, the people with the most to say are probably the one's that google everything, no real experience! You do right letting them settle.
He’s a beautiful horse! It’s nice that he keeps the neighbor’s company.
Knew an Arab that looked just like Ziggy. His name was Ashton. Perky spunky animated yet gentle as a lamb. And a bit of a jokester.
Ziggy looks so much healthier & stronger than when you first got him. I can't believe people would think that you're too big to ride Ziggy!!! "Debbie Downers"😄 Keep up your excellent work CC - we love your videos, your horses, your cats & Huckleberry!!!💜
Ziggy will return your consideration and care tenfold. Be ready for him to move comfortably into your heart.
I really like Ziggy. I have known some Arabian gems of horses and feel that he will be one of that type. Mellow but responsive, good legs and feet and able to thrive with the correct care for many years. Someone will be very happy to have him, I am sure. You are giving him exactly what he needs to be his best self.
Ziggy is really filling out nicely. I appreciate the care you take with all your horses, especially the new ones. You read their bodies so well. Ziggy would make a good mount for a teenager. ❤
From my perspective... Ziggy is making excellent progress. The care and training that you are giving Ziggy (as well as ALL of your other rescue charges)... is simply OUTSTANDING! As usual, your videos are both educational & entertaining... PLEASE keep them coming!
Good evening from Sweden. Ziggy is a really nice horse!
Thankyou for savings these beautiful horses and making them healthy. CC you are a beautiful person inside and out!!❤
Wow! It’s been 5 weeks? Rollie pollie cracked me up! He’s beautiful, you’re doing a great job with him. Who cares what people comment, you’re the expert! God bless!
Ziggy is SO handsome! You have done such a great job with him so far. I can definitely tell how much more healthy he looks now. 💖
I was ridiculously excited when this video popped up - haha!
You're great, I have no idea why the RUclips "experts" feel the need to criticize anything.
I think Ziggy is beautiful. And please don’t let the people who are giving you negative comments bother you. I personally have found since Covid that everybody is angry and they don’t know what to do with their anger so they lash out at anyone and everyone.
Hes looking so good CC. I cant help loviing the neighbours crazy mare too. It was reasurring to hear that she has other horse friends too - thank you. Very much looking forward to seeing you on your latest new ride 🚜🚜🥂
I loved my Arabian. He was a kick in the pants to ride (in a good way), he saved a group of riders who were stuck in a quicksand area. We led them out on a long rein so he could sniff the ground. He was the first to sense cars on dirt roads, water ahead or other riders coming. He was an easy keeper. I rode dressage on a Warmblood, a thoroughbred over fences but my heart belongs to my Arab.
That's amazing 👏
They are BEAUTIFUL Horses ❤❤❤❤
You're welcome 😊
CC, I learned to ride on bareback horses rather than with a saddle. So, when I began using a saddle, I was initially uncomfortable because I could no longer feel the horse's muscles and their movements. This way felt like I was in "tune" with my horse, and could predict what he was going to do. Although I did eventually use saddles, I preferred English ones rather than Western saddles, again for these reasons.
Please do not feel like you need to justify to us, anything you do with your horses! I was around horses most of my life, but have learned more from you than I ever did in my many years as a rider! You are the very best "horse person" I've seen, and I've seen and watched plenty of them! Thank you for your vlog which is a quiet, calm, happy place to be the chaotic world today!
Ziggy must feel he's reached heaven after his long life. I'm glad you have him now and are able to give him some love.
Why would anyone give you a hard time about not riding Ziggy yet 🤦♀️ you obviously genuinely care about your gorgeous horse friends and know what you’re doing. That’s one of the reasons I love your channel so much.
Sweet!! Love the walk beside the little stream!!! ❤❤❤
i know all of you notice CC doesn’t show her face because it is ALL about the horses and their rehab. ❤❤
You know, it might be nice to keep Ziggy as your steady eddy boy to keep your spirits up. I think he really likes you, and to have him staying right in the back of your house is perfect.
Dont be hard or self conscience on yourself... I cant imagine anyone thinking you shouldn't ride Ziggy. The day after your ride, he came right up to you prolly wanting to have another go. Seems to be a great animal and very lucky to have been rescued by you. Great job Maam
I know nothing about horses and have never been interested, but I love this channel.
He's looking so good!
No you did not make a mistake! He is just beautiful. People are ridiculous. He looks wonderful and needed to get healthy and learn that you can be trusted. Nope, no mistake at all.
In my advanced years I wish I could have you find and rehabilitate a horse like Ziggy for me. You do amazing work with you horses!
I think what you said about chiro is interesting. I see people swear by chiro saying all horses need it as regular maintenance. I decided to get it for my 23 yro mare. She was being trail ridden heavily at the time so I figured surely she would need it. I didn’t have any indication besides her age and work level. Well, chiro came out and told me how great she was and nothing felt off or weird. I was shocked. This is an aged horse being hauled/ ridden at least once a week. The chiro that saw her is a dr and human chiro too so he’s a good one. It made me really question why some horses are needing chiro work so frequently/ at all. I put A LOT of emphasis on saddle fit and conditioning my horses. I don’t think chiro is this magical fix everyone makes it out to be.
Yeah another Video Witz Siggi, right after work.
I love Ziggy , he is so graceful. Enjoy watching the two of you getting to know each other. That was a fun visit 🙏👍🕊️❤️
I enjoy watching Ziggy move. He's so graceful and he moved with such intention.
waiting for his introduction to the boys.
Yes, please tell us. I love his name. Every Christmas, I watch the cartoon "Ziggy's Gift". This is a lovely little story which always touches my old heart. ❤
I love how consistent you are with each horse and how you really know and understand their quirks , challenges and temperaments. Good job 👏
Oh hes so beautiful; he stood up nicely when he realised you were getting on! 💖💖
Thanks for taking us on your journey with Ziggy.
Oh, my! Ziggy is looking so good! He seems to be feeling good, too. You're doing a great job finding out what he knows and working out his kinks, both physical and mental. Thank you for your skill and your patience that are so obvious in these videos. Lucky Ziggy!
He seemed to enjoy the ride. Must be bored out of his mind 😉
Yeah ready to get back to work!
Here for the Ziggy cost video! I’d love to know what’s gone into making sure he’s healthy!
