    I am the owner of Sox, and let me tell you, being videoed was a really hard thing for me to do, but I hope this can help someone else!
    Sox is my heart horse and I am so thankful for Ryan showing me that this is something fixable and not something that we will just have to live with.
    I’m very thankful and we work on this daily 5 minutes in his stall. Worth it for the change we are seeing.
    I’ve worked with lots of horses and this was the first one that attacked me when I reprimanded a threatening kick, so yes…I was very scared of getting hurt! Thankful for professionals like Ryan!!!

      There are several cases of horses that were having aggressive behavior because they feel a lot of pain, because they have health problems and when they were treated returned to normal, I hope people stop being ignorant and irresponsible and investigate the horse's health and stop thinking it is tantrum or that the horse is evil

    • @vernonfrance2974
      @vernonfrance2974 9 месяцев назад

      @audreydragonflight7121 I did not see a positive connection at all, let alone an "awesome" one. The impression I got from the way Beth charged towards Sox and twice smashed the flag on the stall floor with loud slams she was either fearful or resentful of Sox. Possibly both. She had already said outside that she bet she knew what would make Sox angry. There was a lot of tension in her voice when she said that. This indicates that she DID KNOW what made him angry because she had already done behaviors that elicited his anger. The tension revealed that it had also most certainly elicited anger on her part.
      Even in Ryan's presence Beth could not help but try to show Sox who's the boss. This made the dominant horse Sox want to contest the issue. I imagine she would have been even more overbearing at times when no one was observing their confrontations. No wonder the horse had tried to show her he could strike back and not put up with her desire to intimidate him and punish him when he rebelled.
      The way the horse reacted to Ryan's firm flick on the nose when he tried to bite him followed by Ryan's obvious consideration and acknowledgement of the horse's need for space quickly resulted in the desired outcome shown by lip licking and even moving toward Ryan with his head down and ears forward indicating a desire to show admiration and respect.
      Ryan purported that Beth was building rapport with Sox but he made sure to emphasize that there was a need to be polite, maintaining space and not forcing Sox to accept petting if he didn't want to. I believe he recognized it was Beth's ego that was a large part of the problem but was being tactful. He sensed that there was a lack of rapport which was the source of the horse's aggressive behavior but knew if he told that to Beth directly it would only make her ego problem worse.

      He didn't have problem.someone taught him to be this way in his stall by incorrectly responding to his don't do that signals. In horse interaction, the alpha will punish a subordinate who doesn't comply. This horse learned that the "attack" would back off people. Once haltered, "normal" hierarchy with people was the rule. Horses are way smarter than we think.

    This was a really clear application of the "do less first" concept! The second stall training work was highly instructive for applying "do less first" and reading cues and applying correct timing for the use of pressure and release. Really effective. The penny dropped on the actual subtly of the concept. Thanks!

    • @audreye7078
      @audreye7078 Год назад +4

      Pressure release was/is detrimental to the horse picking up on the 2 eyes concept. He has a perfect opportunity to use a non-dominance technique with his flag or if he's well tuned, his energy to get the horse's attention. It's hard to distinguish the two until you see it as a yoo-hoo, I'm here.. versus a look at me kind of thing.

      @@rebeccalara5014 look at the difference.. watch some of Warwick Schiller's videos.. plus I've begun this non dominance journey years ago.. your timing on backing off from your horse is too late and reinforces his thinking that saying no with threats is ok.. the fact his demeanor changes totally once haltered is further proof of his confusion about who is leader and when.. it's classic you disobeyed my telling you so I'll discipline you.
      Ryan's reaction to bop him was right on.. it was gently done as possible under the situation Ryan set up. He told the horse. "You don't get to threaten me like that." It would have been better to have set up the who's alpha outside over food when the horse has complete freedom to leave. Any restraint system raises the anxiety level in a horse until and unless you have earned their total trust to say they are worried and you give them time to think about it. Generally, the better the relationship, the more likely the horse will try to do what you ask.. You need to pay attention to the eyes, ears and tenseness before the horse has to get louder with pinning ears or snaking a threat.
      Ryan saw it, but he didn't say if he wanted to provoke the reaction when the horse escalated the signal. Standing up to the horse only took once to let the horse know, this guy knows.. I won't try that again.

From my first look & introduction, to the horse, I was forever in love & drawn in like a magnet. It has always amazed me, regarding the horses in pastures, that allowed myself & other pesky chaps, to hang around & hang on & just be there, in their space, & of course, the ultimate plan, was to get a boost aboard & sit contentedly, for decades. I guess it was simply that we were on the same mental wavelength, as the horse of the day. No threat no sweat. Mutual trust agreement. We were very mindful of the horse's tolerance level. I recall that when the horses tired of us, we just knew. A gentle see ya later, by the horse. And Id bid farewell, as did the horses. Obviously, they weren't wild mustangs. But, I just innately knew what to do. Understood the horses mind, & body language. Mutual. Lol. Not just pet, but ride. No saddle no bridle. If there was a grouchy soul in the herd, I left it alone. Good old horses. They tell us everything. If we learn to listen.

      @privatemailcall6011 Год назад

      Yep. Lol. We all seem to have had our pasture pony moments. Actually, horsey moments. I was taught early on, by the Shetland ponies, to buzz off. Tough little ponies, that had aquired learned attitudes, caused by their many, pint sized, aggravating, side kicking, hand banging, screeching youngsters. Lol. The ponies could get rid of us, with body language. Not all Shetland ponies were bossy buckers, and nippers. Just the ones that had raised countless tiny rowdy cowboys. Lol. And, to reemphasize, we didn't approach the horses that didn't want us around. They told you right up front. We listened. But those wonderful old mares & geldings, who allowed us, who babysat us, who let us climb up, & simply sit on their backs, while they grazed, are forever in our hearts. I can still feel their body movement, when they stretch necks down, bite & pull the grasses, & continue to graze & grab & chomp every blade of yummy grass & clovers. And the steps they take, as they graze along. Just so very wonderful. Best friends bonding in those hours. Then, a free walk & ride back to the barn. Naked. Not even a halter & lead rope. Our horses were never turned out wearing halters. The halters were hung near the outgate. Good times!

      Mate, the thing I personally like about your teaching is the balance you present to teach not just the horse but the owners more so, so they can improve and build the relationship between themselves and the horse by getting into the horses head.
      Experiencing, observing ‘herd’ dynamics is very educational. Exerting myself as dominant to a horse in a group (12) is interesting when that horse is already in a top spot of the hierarchy and approached me amongst the herd in a assertive manner but not aggressive, after a few moment’s, a mutual respect where that horse will ‘give in’ when I demand my own space. But his herd position, and mine, not changed.
      One on one dynamics is totally different, which is a whole lesson always.
      I see similarity between you and Monty Roberts, the way you both guide owners first and horses, to understand horse language.
      Have you had connection with Monty Roberts ?

    What a gorgeous boy Sox is! My stud had never offered to bite, but one day while I was bent down getting a scoop of feed for another horse, he reached over the fence and picked me up by the butt of my coveralls. I came up swinging fists mad as a knee jerk reaction. Hanging from a horse's mouth by your butt will do that to you. He let go and he never tried to nip me or anyone else again thankfully. If I remember right he was only a 2 year old at the time and so his hormones may have been affecting his thought process. I was happy to hear Ryan say he pops the body part doing the aggression as that was always my philosophy, but I caught a lot of grief from some over a little pop in the nose.

    I learn so much with the little pieces of information you share. Like "asking" first before you touch a horse's head, and respecting if they say "no". I grew up with the "show 'em who's boss" mentality, and although I've come a long way, it is hard to break out of that initial conditioning. I always admire when people remain calm when working with a horse, especially one who might act somewhere aggressive.

      Just as we're taught don't reach over a dog's head to pay it, go under first and let them smell you. Then touch if the dog doesn't back away.
      Walking our dog on the beach some kids might ask first and reach over, luckily our boy loves kids, others ask first and then present the hand for the sniff first and go to rub his cheek which he loves, especially around his ears. Very rarely he will step away and not allow the touch. But if they pause and attempt again he's fine.
      Usually if a kid asks to pat we will ask him to sit first. And there is almost always a treat at the end of it l.

It's fascinating that as many things as all horses have in common, they're distinct individuals, too. So, you're right...they're like people.

Hopefully, I will avoid becoming obsessed with watching for people licking and chewing, or getting ready to 'roll.' 😂

    @Beth June Omg, Sox is DARLING! Those big sweet eyes that are just looking to understand what you want and to get approval? MELTS MY HEART! It makes me angry his past baggage could be from some fool who didn’t know or care to know what they were doing and how it could effect him. He acts like somewhere along the way, someone came in to blanket him while he was eating dinner, maybe pulling him away from his grain to slip the blanket over his head, he complained, got the crap smacked out of him and the associations were made. Don’t touch my blanket, don’t get near me when I eat!
    At the same time, maybe his baggage wasn’t from previous poor handling and I’m assuming too much. Maybe he’s one of those horses that just doesn’t like rough textures like stiff brushes, stiff turnout rugs, etc? Even good, in demand trainers can get bogged down with the number of horse they have to ride and handle in a day. Thin skinned, sensitive horses tend to fair poorly at busy barns, even if they’re well run. Simply due to efficiency, movements can be quicker, grooming can be one size fits all with a brush that’s more stiff, so it knocks off the dried up stuff faster, tacking up is quicker, stirrups, girths, etc. flopping around a bit more, noises are constant because it’s always humming and busy. We’ve all seen it and it doesn’t have to mean people are intentionally being cold or have abusive practices. Sox looks like he’s genuinely a chill dude who doesn’t seek to hurt people, hence being trustworthy as a lesson horse!
    He’s probably a one person horse that needs someone who takes their time to “get him” and be his partner. He doesn’t seem to want to be the alpha, he just wants to know the rules, have the rules be consistent and know he’s able to please his person. He’s learned survival techniques to get pressure released when he feels cornered. No matter how he arrived to that point, omgosh, I’m so grateful he has an owner that adores him❣️In fact, so much so that you’re willing to overcome your own fear and help him work through it. ❤
    Something very positive that I noticed when y’all were working… Check out the difference in Sox’s overall posture when 1-he’s originally standing in the stall, 2-how he’s standing at 11:26 and finally 3-at 13:48.
    Please hang with me here. I know this is already a stupidly long comment. 😁 This is going somewhere, I promise. 😊
    Because of an old horse judging habit, when I saw Sox hanging out in his stall I thought he was a little camped under in the rear. Sometimes they stand that way because they’re compensating for soreness somewhere else or they’re get tense so they’re locked and loaded to defend themselves. Once Ryan was clear what he wanted and pressure would be released, Sox somewhat lowered his head and softened his topline a bit. His body language showed he was relieved.
    When y’all moved to the arena, once Sox quit trying to roll, (I mean, look at that footing! Can ya blame him?! I’d want to roll in it too! 😂) you could see he was still a bit apprehensive, still processing the exercise to see if he was going to be able to do what Ryan was asking without Ryan escalating. At 11:26 Sox is still standing with his head somewhat elevated, his topline tense, still a bit camped in.
    By 13:48 Sox has realized he can relax. It’s may seem subtle, but if you draw along his body with your finger, you can see it’s a world of difference! He’s standing more square, his neck and head are relaxed in a natural position with his shoulder and withers and his topline is relaxed. His square back legs shows he’s not built with odd angles in the rear, he’s not compensating for soreness in other places, he was simply stressed out!
    What a great thing to see and man, to see it so quickly?! 👏🏻 I bet once Sox gets that confidence horses get from trusting people, he’s probably going to drive you nuts! He’s probably going to turn into a pocket pony that thinks he’s a lap dog and just wants to be right next to you cuz he luuuuuvs you 🤓❣️🤣
    Y’all are blessed to have found your heart horse and his heart person ❤

    This is an awesome horse. Precious owner. So glad that Ryan can help her, to teach the horse, to think differently, about things, that people previously taught, which caused this defensiveness & lead to problems. It's often difficult to get a horse to trust again, but it's absolutely possible. I know that this owner will be successful. Beautiful!

    She’s very robotic in her movements which is definitely scary to animals. Almost like she is way overthinking her body movements rather than moving forward confidently and smoothly. Many people have this problem with dogs as well.

      @@ryanrosehorsemanship Ryan, this was a very good video. I've criticized some of your other ones (not following, they show up sometimes) if you haven't already take a look at Warwick Schiller's latest work. It will help you differentiate better between pressure/release and the trust building, "i see your concern, I'm present, i see your communication, I am going to keep you safe" methods. You could have gotten the 2 eyes much faster if you knew what made him look at you after you stepped back.
      Wish you would have explained the alpha subordinate issue around food and space better. Very few people really get that and confuse their horse with inconsistent action. This causes anxiety and can make a more assertive horse dangerous.
      I cringe when I hear trainers say to leave a horse alone when its eating and they excuse the alpha behavior ( ear pinning, snaking) over feed.
      Again, good video..

    Back in the '90's I was gifted a nice little paint mare and the only request of the owner was to break and train the horse. My grandad was a real cowboy, but I wasn't, so I started learning everything I could about horses, reading everything I could about training and horse psychology. At the time I had two young boy's and it didn't take me long to realise that I could use everything I'm learning about training horses, on my kids.....Other than raising them in the church, it helped me greatly raising them, and it was one of the best things that ever happened, I called it "using horse psychology on your kids"....I found your vids a few days ago and I love them. And I don't even have a horse anymore, I'm a dirt bike guy, they're hard to train, and they try to kill me all the time.....🤣.

    Thank you so much! The end of the video with the 2 eyes in the stall was very helpful. For me the MOST valuable lesson was the straight line toward him in the arena, and the intention and energy approaching him. It was quite obvious he respected your clear communication and when she tried it - the bit of hesitancy and letting him remain too close without moving away before she swatted the flag was showing exactly where she needs to work. She has done so very well by him, and now working on these less clear communication points for her will make all the difference.
    You are so good at showing the small details that make a huge difference. Horses read us very effectively and learning their language is a life goal for me.
