    It is such a pleasure to watch the horses and now how calm and relaxed they are, which is how it should be. Also well done to the Kings Guards for upholding the new rules, it has made a massive difference.

    I’m so glad they’re not from the US we’re a little more respectful of a military they know that the military is to be respected and honored for their sacrifices they make, and believe me, I instilled that in my family and children, you respect them no matter what❤❤❤

    Tourists show being upset they cannot maul or touch the Kings Guards Horses. But WHERE can any tourist PET a SOLDIER? The horses need protection. People were blatantly pulling on the reins. Absolutely needs to stop

      ⁠​⁠​⁠@@Ladywolf2263Wow! Who is she "judging". Technically you are both right. What matters is you both obviously are compassionate about the care of the Kings guards and their horses. It was obviously extremely stressful for the guards and their horses especially when there were several people on both sides touching the horses and grabbing at the reins. What really pissed me off was that most irritating lady who hung out all day acting like it was her job to show everyone it was okay to pet the horses. The first time she argued with the guards or cops she should have been banned. They were all WAY too tolerant of her! I realize she may have had a mental issue or something but dang! She was an extremely rude lady!
      Anyway, I was so happy when they finally painted the lines to keep the tourists away from the guards and their beautiful horses. It's obvious how much more relaxed they are now which I'm sure everyone agrees about that!
      God Bless you and have a safe, blessed, wonderful Christmas!!

Retired now however the disrespect shown from people towards guardsman etc. It is not expectable. Very disappointed in the lack of respect when in someone's country. Where is the kindness these days?? However thank you for doing this most enjoyable.❤

    Sorry but I am going to be controversial here; the Kings Troop Royal Artillery are a Ceremonial regiment, unlike the Lifeguards i e Lifeguards and Blues and Royals, who are active serving military personnel. The kings Troop aren't. Someone once quoted that they are equestrian hobbyists pretending to be soldiers...that is actually quite correct! Anyway....

      Horses will chew mouth and play with the bit similar to people chewing gum or a baby sucking a dummy . Some bits have rollers which actually encourage the horse to play as it keeps the mouth moist .

      ​@@susanharrison6401The total time horses are on show in the arches is from 10am - 4pm daily. Each horse does 1 hour then there is a changeover. It's rare that they do more than just the 1 hour shift .

    • @kathellison8084
      @kathellison8084 Месяц назад +7

      @susanharrison6401 . Do you think they leave the bridle and saddle on when they finish the hour duty , they are removed given food and water in summer an electrolyte feed . Checked over and rubbed down . First duty starts at 10am last ends at 4pm , if a particular horse has been unsettled another replaces him/her for duty . So horses may do 3 one hour duties a day but that's not set in stone . Two days at Horse Guards then back to Hyde Park Barracks when the regiments change .Each horse has its own individual tack carefully made by the Master Saddlers . These horses receive better care than you or I !
