that's one hell of a beautiful horse
IKR!!
was that a refrence?
Never underestimate the importance of groundwork. It works and it will keep one out of the hospital.
Tell that to my mare that put me in the hospital after something happened in ground work😳😳
@@hanakinsidewalker oh no! Hope you're all okay now x
@@jorjascorer Yeah I’m fine she’s fine the fence isn’t lmao
This reminds me of my so-called "untrainable" horse. Everyone was afraid of him, including me. I was told frequently to have him put down and find a gentler more suitable horse for me, but I wasn't about to give up. It's been a long journey of literally blood, sweat, and tears, but he's come so far. He's so tolerant of the crazy things I decide to do with him and while he could be an energetic horse that he and I were both having so much fun, but then I could get off and let my little niece ride (who was 5 or 6 when I first started letting her ride Caruso) and he'd be a gentle little angel who was very cautious with every step he took and made every effort he could to do what she was asking of him, even when she was accidentally confusing him and he didn't quite understand what she was trying to ask him. Now all of the people who told me to put him down or told me he was impossible to train are amazed at how far he's come. I'm so glad I never gave up on him. I'm glad you never gave up on Casper either! Great job!
You are such an amazing rider for not giving up and i love the way how you handle him.... learnt lots from this video xx
If you notice in the beginning whenever he would shy and act up he wasn't scared, his ears and eyes show he was just being naughty; likely never had any good base of manners. Which is why when she started doing in-hand showing which requires the horse to respect you and see you as their boss mare the behavior problems stopped.
She also got better at jumping (she tended to jump behind a bit, probably from tensing up in anticipation of a refusal), which likely helped him feel less like objecting.
If a horse is scared of a fence and gets forced to go over it is a bad experience an will always try to find a way to not jump thats not being noughty its called scared off your"boss" and doing things against your will
you have the most unreal seat!
your journey is amazing and some people might say he is a completely different horse
Groundwork always strenghten the bond between horse and rider.. i always spend 2-5 months with the horse,walking them,lunging and other traing before i start riding them-sometimes i take them out for a nice ride in the woods without a sadle just taking it calm once a week after two weeks of bonding-it depends on the horse-no horses are alike.. I think some riders ekspekt to much too soon... I really enjoyed your video and i think you did really good.. keep it up
I love that you did not give up on casper! My mare was not as bad as casper was, but she was a handful, and alot of people thought I was nuts and still think i'm nuts for keeping her, she's 6 almost 7 yrs old, and I'd never give up on her! She's never given up on me! :) she's a great horse, she's just a very typical pasa fino, very high spirited, and that's what makes me love her so much! It's never a dull moment with her! She learns quick and she's a challenge! Alot of owners just wanna give up and move ont o something easier, and that's not fair to the horse! Nellie was 3 months 3weeks old when i got her so I had to go through her first kick at me, she bit me, 1 time and we never had a problem after that! Clinton anderson says horse's learn by moving their feet, and he's right! Nellie was lunged when she bit me and kicked at me, she never once has done that again! This is just a very moving video, I love to see someone else putting time into their horse! :)
Good for you! Never give up on a horse! Even if they are bad. Don't go with what other people think of your owned horse!
Well done! I believe that any horse can be dealt with, just with the right person and the right length of time. ;)
Exactly! sure, there are problem horses out in the world, but they can be helped (just like people can be "fixed")
I can't even say how proud I am of you two and how much I admire you. No matter how hard it gets with my horse, everytime I remember your achievements it gives me the push that I needed to get back up again and try harder, learn more, to solve us.
made me cry watching your journey together, the injury was meant to be as it made you both really get to know each and for you to become his leader which is what he needed. Really really really well done, truly wonderful bond you both have. x
You gave him a second chance! You can be proud of yourself:)
Frecking amazing perseverance! You have me crying watching this at the start then at the end with the music when you'se are doing good! Well done! Idk you but you've made me proud watching this and your someone that inspires me with my riding! Still crying lol xxx
Now this is what I call true horsemanship, after everything she's been through with that horse... all the falls, all the let downs, all the doubt people had with her and this horse... she never quit. Now look at them! What a wonderful team they now are! Just goes too show what can happen when you don't quit.
i watch this video over and over again and absolutely love it. just watching your videos have helped me so much with my otttb who isnt the easiest of horses. You did and amazing job with him!
4 years on and i can say this is the best video i have ever watched, just goes to show that horses are worth every bit of time and dirt kicked in your face to produce a lovely horse,well done
I can't even bare to think what this poor boy was put through before you got him. You had done incredibly well and should be so so proud of yourself. It's an incredible feeling of accomplishment when you finally get there. So very happy for you and Casper
This was just the inspiration I needed. Thank you for sharing. (: And your seat throughout all his bucking fits, rears, and spooks is seriously amazing! Haha, I wish I was that confident in my seat!
Thank you for posting this inspirational video... It's exactly what I needed to see today. You could have been injured or worse, but you kept on going. What a beautiful pair the two of you are. Keep doing what you love!
I can't help but keep coming back for this video... You two are amazing together. All he needed was some time to know you better from the ground. Well done and thank you for not giving up on this amazing animal!
I'm glad I found this video, I have a 4 yr old untouched, right at the start where you are, hope we do half as good, well done!
And you've got a bloody good seat too!
Its wonderful to see what you've done with a very challenging horse and to see how far you have come from where you started! I really appreciate that you admitted your fear, because we all have those moments. It helps to know not only that other riders have these issues, but that they get through them as well.
So emotional for me to watch this as I am going through the same battle with my horse . I fell 3 times last week . I am afraid of her but never ready to give up and i have faith that with proper ground work we will overcome this. You should be proud of yourself for choosing a huge challenge and win it at the end. and then share it to help others. Our horses are trying to communicate with us even through this kind of fears , we only have to tune in with the right ears to hear it and help them overcome it . Thank you.
wow you really are a skilled rider! i had a tear in my eye watching that video montage. Well done!
You're a really good rider👌
this made my day and brought back so many memories of the hard time I had with my boy when i got him over ten years ago. I think the first year I had him, we hated each other, and then one day you agree on one thing and then another and not so suddenly but certainly surprising when the moment hits you that you are a team. The trust builds and the horse that tried to kill me when I first got him is now my best friend and soulmate. Kudos to you for your perseverance and patience! May you have a long and loving relationship for many years to come!
congratulations on your wonderful job with Casper!! I watch this all the time and it brings me to tears every time. You're a beautiful, be very proud of yourself, my Inspiration
great! congratulation! you are a beautiful horse and he is great!
He is beautiful! He was a different horse after the in-hand showing because it was groundwork. That's what doing groundwork does: it strengthens the bond between you and your horse, as well as his foundation training. I hate to criticize, but I do think you were asking a bit too much too soon, there should have been less riding and more groundwork early on. But you didn't give up on that so-called "problem horse," and for that, I respect you. Overall, you did a great job with him. What breed is he?
I agree I also saw too much too soon but she's learned from It and now they're fab
Made me cry! Thanks, loved seeing the progress. With them is all about love and patience.
This video really inspires me. It shows how determined some people are. You are amazing for not giving up. ❤️❤️
How awesome !!! Excellent work!
wich leg had been chipped? May be, there had been a little chip in this leg before, that never had been noticed before, thad made the horse feel sudden pain all the time until it chipped hardly?
Horses aren´t crazy they always have got reasons if they resist. A little chip, unvisible on x-rays could be one.
That's how he acted in the beginning, like he had pain and he would act up when it got worse. Had this happen on a floating chip. Didn't always hurt but when it did he acted up. By the time discovered it had done too much damage in the ankle joint and had to retire him. If horses act up check everything over quickly before it does too much damage
It’s amazing how you stuck with him and never gave up, it’s like it was meant to be and you were just waiting for that moment when everything changed, you are an amazing rider with an amazing horse. I could learn a lot from you. Well done to you and your horse!!
U are amazing for not giving up on him & such a good rider! Nicely done & it seems like the difficult horses always turn out to be the best!!! 🌻
I always said that the ground work help!! Good job!
Agreed, I don't think people in general work their horses from the ground enough. That's the best way to build a bond with your horse, get them to trust you.
Wow, very good job! Compliments... ;-)
That is awesome that you stuck with him! And this experience just made you one heck of a rider and now you have a wonderful horse :) It is people like you that I admire!
He looks so happy now, its like you have shown him a whole new way of seeing the world, and i am glad you managed to build such an amazing bond and he is so beautiful now! I do not think sending him to any proffessional would have had such a brilliant effect on him. Thats a horse for life
Poor horse before he came to u he must have been severely abused or something I'm sure he loves u ur a good rider
+karen kelly That's what i thought to because every time when some one was near by him he really kicked hard. Respect for the rider because she was soo patient and has take the time to get to know the horse. Good job! No horse is bad, the people make them that way.
+karen kelly Not necessarily. I've been working with young horses and ponies for about five or six years now and many of them show much of Caspar's behavior for example.
That's partially testing the rider, partially high spirits and -- most of all -- unsureness. He needs to balance is weight and the rider's AND to jump over something or move in a specific way. Most young horses are just overchallenged with that. And not really knowing that strange thing called human on your back doesn't really make things easier. ;)
(I'm sorry for my bad English. I'm German...)
It's a Jazz. That explains everything ! Takes time, but when they decide to work for and with you, you can't get a better one.
Marianne Bouwman A Jazz?
bezoticallyyours83 it means he's by the stallion Jazz, they're often very sharp & hot horses
"he's nothing special" my ass hes beautiful
This is very inspirational. Thanks for sharing this. Let's me know I shouldn't give up on my horse. The transformation of Casper and your relationship is amazing!
This made me cry. Reminds me a bit of my own horse, when it comes to showjumping. I'm glad you never gave up! Really inspiring =)
you seriously had guts to ride him at first, not saying you shouldnt have but i probably would have worked with him on the ground 'cos of my "lack of guts" knowing that i would defiantly fall off :P
awesome job tho :)
Yeah the whole hitting the ground thing isn't something riders generally strive for lol
Haha :P
Well done!!
Your video is a perfect example of why we are so in love with riding... no matter how good you are you can ALWAYS learn something new. :) Your horse taught you the importance of ground work and why it's so important to have their trust and respect on the ground before you get on their back. Wonderful outcome for horse and rider! I admire your persistence!
So inspirational! This video is one of the reasons why when I got a super green horse, I decided to ride 3 days a week and do groundwork the other 4 days. And it worked so nicely! Gotta love groundwork
hi i would like to know if you still have casper
Can I go bawl my eyes out ok bye
I want an English Saddle if I start riding again. There so light.
Montana Freeman That's good! But hey , why don't you ride anymore? :(
Laura Swiftie! 《13 I don't have a saddle. I know people with horses who said if I come up with gear I can ride their horses just to keep em in shape. I started riding before I was 5. I had a horse from the age of 13 tell I was 15. He was high spirited like the horse in this video. After riding a horse like this for a couple years, all horses after that are plugs. Plus I've worked on Ranches and it's one thing going out for the fun of riding but it's a whole other story when it's your job and your on the back of a horse for 6 or 7 hours a day. I'd rather drive a tractor.
Montana Freeman Oh ok...Why did you change opinion?
Laura Swiftie! 《13 I just don't need to ride any more. The last job I had was Farming a 300 acre Ranch on the South End of this valley. (That's small.) The biggest ranch I worked on was 56, 000 Acres. It was owned by an Insurance Company as a Money shelter and Tax deduction. I guess I could of went on the Cowboy side of the Ranches, I just never did. When you work Ranches to higher out as a Cowboy you should at least have your own saddle. Ranches have horses but no one wants you using their saddles. Now to the subject of saddles. A heavy saddle is used by ropers. A horse is only flesh & Blood and carrying something like a saddle wears them out faster. Light saddles keeps a horse fresh longer. When driving Cows 18 miles horses get tired and so do cows. Some cowboy's have 2 horses. When one horse gets tired they just saddle the other for a fresh ride. I don't Ranch or farm any more. If I do anything I'll do something on my own in building things and selling them.
WOW!! I'm absolutly fascinated and inspired! I love it, that you gave him another chance over an over again and that you have got the strength for it!
You are truly my inspiration you keep going when I showed my family this video to show that horses have a natural instinct to be crazy sometimes they said it reminded them of me and how I ride all the crazy and wild horses and I watch how you ride and follow what you do... anyway thanks for being here
He's a lot like how Bear was when I got him.
I get it he was not a year old, you just had him for a year?? Amazing job... I do not have patience for nut jobs....not many would have either. You go girl, you have created a amazing bond there!!
Horses aren't nuts. They always have a reason even if we don't know what it is or understand completely.
Young with many issues. Of course Humans caused it (maybe). I still call it nuts, sorry it offends someone. Have raised horses all my life, some are alittle nuts. She has balls to tackle him, and my hat off to her! It takes someone special to do that, she risked her life to tame her horse.
This is beautiful, it bring s a tear to my eye to see the bond between you to.
Beautiful horse, beautiful story! Love your patience and belief in him. Thank you for sharing your story!
If your horse is crazy like this then you shouldn't be trying to jump him. Do some simply ridding (like show at 4:20 but with a saddle) to gain more control. Then move up. Your are putting unnecessary stress on your horse. And his injury, was that from you trying to jump him?
I also find it hilarious that you enter this horse in any competition when he obviously spooks at jumps still.
But your a fantastic rider and I know you'll take him far.
Chloe Walden I also find it hilarious that you think you know the whole story.
I know that you are probably trying to help but seriously, let her do what she believes is right as you dont know the horse or the situation :)
Molly Burn yeh exactly people think they know everything about a situation and try and give you advice when your doing everything you think is right and eventually get there :)
maybe she did do more riding like 4:20 with a saddle but she didn't video those rides or she didn't want to put them in think before comment
Equine Niah
Well she needed to do more because it obviously didn't work.
bere cool!
wow
ok scary paard :D
jaaaa
this is great to see, it just goes to show what you can do with a horse when you take that extra time to get to know that on the ground and creating that bond in hand before trying to get on, you can straight away see the difference in the horses attitude towards being ridden after his time off and doing in hand shows. Don't listen to any of the negative comments on here you have done a great job, keep up the good work
love this so much! cried watching it, it's so amazing, it was such a beautiful thing to watch :) you have done absolutely amazing, you've both come so far it's unbelievable :) such a heart warming video :)
good job! you really have balls girl xD but, you're pulling way too much on his mouth, that hurts
Shes not. She pulling him back so he doesn't bolt
Katie Lockhart no, the horse has pain, just look with your eyeballs
Maybe because he was a bit crazy...
I don’t think she was looking for any trainers in these comments, just to show she has come so far with her horse.
Soft hands make soft horses. Look at the video, how often the rider is hanging at the reins pulling with her full weight. The pain is going to make the head of the horse explode. The horse is not feeling well with the bit. The rider should try another one or change to bitless.
Did you watch the whole video? He's fine.
idiot
not fine
It isn’t always as simple as that.
I agree! Bernd
This is so amazing 😭 the bond between you is so strong!💗
Ouah ! *-* This work that you carried out with him, it's just beautiful. Good to you and to him
Had me crying too! I'm so proud of you both and I don't even know you two! lol! You really showed some amazing loyalty and faith in this horse. He's a beautiful mover by the way. Congrats!
Wow it is so amazing the bond you have and you never gave up no matter what other people said it is so nice to see you two together. you have an amazing seat (i need your seat!) you must be so proud well done!
Wow, Thank you for all the time and effort. I have been in your shoes many many times. As my Mom told me, "God doesn't make mistakes"!
You are a truly a lovely horse person.
Have seen this video of yours before (a while ago now), but after coming off my new lad, i've spent the morning looking for this video, as I knew that it'd give me confidence that it can be done, thank you :-)
I love to know that there is another amazing person out there that believed that their horse was more than he seemed at first. Nothing compares to the bond that forms from taking a horse all the way from untrained and afraid to a trusting champion. Congratulations with Casper
I love how you always keep calm, people could learn from that. Beautifull horse by the way!
Best video ever!
i found this so inspiring i just bought an OTTB and have had similar problems everyone is saying you"ll never get anywhere with him so give up but i love him and see him improve every day he doesnt mean to buck up or anything this has really inspired me to keep going!!!!!!!!
This is incredible!!!!!!!! Well done!!! This gives me so much more hope with my horse!! Thankyou for sharing!!
Good job! I sit here watching with tears streaming down my face missing my boy with a very very similar story...when I got him I was told he had put at least 2 people in the hospital. But I loved him he was something , he was off the track and quite a stinker, so I treated him as though a weanling and started from there, it took 6 months and then a slow easy work into the saddle. There is no doubt in my mind that I made the right decision to keep him that horse loved me,trusted me...no one else. and I trusted him, good for you for not giving up and I hope you have as many wonderful day as we had together he was the love of my life until the day he passed 6 months ago,, there isn't a day goes by I don't think of him, I'm not saying that works out for everyone like it has for us,but it is soooo great when it does! Good luck and good life for both of you
This video really touched my heart well done it just shows how much you care about this horse and the effort you put into him/her has paid off well done you deserve one an other :) x
He's beautiful. His colors and the way he carry himself makes his body seem so majestic. And his legs, back and neck in the end of the vid, shows how well you've taught him to carry himself - and you. Very brave - and very good rider. And who would've known that weeks of interaction on the ground, would make him connect to you and trust you so much. An unbelievable change. And I notice the way he is never one single time hit or punished for acting up. Like so make naughty horses, who never makes progress, somehow he just didn't want you to be in charge - until you became his mom ;-). His eyes look like he feels love and unity. Unity and belonging being the most important feelings for a horse's survival and well-being in the wild.
Casper is a BEAUTIFUL horse! He is so lovely to watch. And you are an incredibly good rider. There were a few moments in there where I was totally amazed that you stayed on him. Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing!
What a gorgeous horse! I'm so glad you didn't give up on him. I know, watching that first half, that I probably would have, He looked so damn dangerous. He obviously still has some way to go, but he has had such a transformation! He looks beautiful in dressage, whereas he seems to get more excited (and harder to control) when jumping. He has a big scope though, so he is obviously a good jumper (and you are able to get him over it all- amazing!). I need to go watch your recent videos now and see how it's all going :)
So glad you stayed with Casper! You're quite a rider, and you've got a big-hearted horse. Thanks for the great video.
Well done for sticking with him , when others would so easily have given up , my horse was the same .I never gave up on him and we have been together 31yrs now x
I am so thankful that there are people like you that have the courage to keep at it. Who knows what may have become of Casper if you had given up as well. I hope you both continue to grow and learn from each other. God Bless.
This is an awsome video! He was very naughty in the beginning! But he is also a very talented horse, and you are an even more talented rider for sticking with him, and figuring out how to get the best out of him! Congratulations!! Well Done!
Casper is beautiful. Wonderful video of the two of you. After all even the most laid back and obedient horses needed training from a patient and knowledgeable person. :) I'm glad you two kept at it and found your connection.
This is my all time favorite video. I have watched it hundreds of times and it's helped me with my horse.
I'm amazed. I think you're a great rider and I'm impressed how you handle your horse. Beautiful video!
That was so beautiful and utterly delightful to watch. Thank you for posting.
Wow, just wow! This was superb! No jerking on the reins, no kicking, no whipping or anything. You just sat there, gave him space and time to think. Excellent riding! If everyone had the same mind as you, no horse would be abused! Thank you! xxxx from Norway
Great Job!! You never give up and always got back up and got back on, true horsemanship!!! You would make anyone with a brain very proud of you!! AWESOME WORK!! I think you done a hell of a job!! I have been riding all my life and I know it is so hard to try to deal with what you were dealing with, there are ones that would have give up way before this point!! We had one horse that was fine outside of the arena but he became a true nut inside of one! Glad to see you are not giving up!! STAY AWESOME!!
With so many comments already I hesitated to add mine - however I don't say this about too many people, especially on RUclips. You are a fantastic rider! Very impressive how you stayed on through all of that. And obviously glad things turned out for the best.
An amazing example of what you can do if you persevere. I had a Hanoverian much the same, beautifully talented but very hot headed! Couldn't even lead him out to the field without being put in the mud. He will always be a very special horse to me, as Casper is to you. He is a lovely boy! Well done! :)
You are owed so much respect! Such patience and perseverance is totally admirable! Congratulations on never giving up, and even though he still looks a bit difficult, at times, I'm sure you are reaping the rewards for all your hard work!!
I have so much admiration for you and your persistence with Casper, the world needs more people like you.
Well done you, this is truly amazing and so inspirational, I am glad you didn't give up and you got there in the end xxxx
What a fantastic video, it bought tears to my eyes.
I have been through this not only with my own horse but other peoples horses too that were deemed "unsafe". Congratulations on sticking with it and trying something new and not giving up like allot of people would.
You say your proud? Girl, you definitely can be! What a wonderful transformation! Every rider in this world should see you as an idol!
wow this is amazing i had goose bumps all over my body! it's so admirable that you didn't give up on your horse! i'd never expected to see such a big change by the end of the video! Wow, seriously! you both learded to trust in each other! that's probalby the biggest gift you can get.
Seriously amazing video. Actually made me cry at the end I was so happy for you guys and so proud of Casper! He is a gorgeous little boy with an amazing personality and you are so lucky to have him. You deserve him after all you two went through.
Truly amazing progress! The comparison between the first few clips and the last few clips is so different! It's like two different horses.
this is so touching. I admire your determination so so much. I surely wouldn't have tried as hard as you did. Truly incredible
Kudos to you girl! What amazing tenacity and persistence. Giving up on a horse like this can mean it will end up at the knackers, good on you for following through. This horse has also taught you heaps, evident in your fabulous seat toward the end of your video. Well done.
Well sat! what a remarkable video, i don't even know either of you, but i'm proud of you both...you must be a very special person - not to mention casper! What a partnership :) I cried, this is such a beautiful video and an amazing story :)
