- I decided to film this lesson at the last minute of Rachel and her 1 1/2 yr old fjord stud colt. He was very pushy and mouthy on the ground. This is how it went

So typical for the (Norwegian) Fjordhorse 😂 they need clear directions all the time, or they’ll give you their finger. A really stubborn and headstrong breed. Regards from Norway and previous multiple fjordhorse owner 😅
Thanks for the video! I will use some of this on my pushy Belgian.

Why is there a mirror? There shouldent be a mirror he saw himself in the mirror he isn't anxious if he was he'd be more active if you look dude he's looks right at he mirror and trys to comunicate to what he thinks is another horse
As a farrier, I have to say I am the most impressed with your genuine understanding of equine behavior and fair discipline of any trainer I've met. It's all such simple stuff, but a lot of people never understand it at all.
Thanks
Yes! I would also say, Ryan Rose, your understanding goes beyond behavior to understanding the culture of the horse! It’s a model we should study more closely according to ancient indigenous tribes as ours seems to be imperil.
Amen!!
I just loved how the little horse, at some point, was like 'oops. ok i have to listen now, he's boss here and has something to say, i better watch out' it was so cute. You can actually see him starting to think. Such little things with immediate effect.
He’s seeing a fellow Norwegian in the mirror, they’re talking Norwegian! Cute
Yep, he seemed pretty distracted by his own handsome face but at least he didn't spook so that's cool. I think he'll be fine, he's just being a stallion and she had no idea what to do about it. But you can see that once some rules were enforced, he really didn't put up much of a fight over it.
Bravo! You had that stud colt’s attention within thirty seconds. He was really lost and insecure, needed leadership. Thanks for sharing- Phit
Thanks 👌👍
I’m a dog trainer and have also trained horses. Your videos are so applicable to dog training as well. Specifically finding the balance of reward and correction
Cool
Fellow dog trainer too! His phrasing has alot of parrells in teaching owners too
She was pulling on the rope n had it where he could not go nowhere but in her face. Great video on how you showed her the right way.
Fjords are prone to get pushy when not trained properly, nice to see someone recognize that it isnt okay.
Yes, I was in a pasture full of Fjords with a friend who was wanteda to buy one. The herd thought it was feeding time when the owner opened the barn gate. A Fjord rolled me over like a bowling pin as he tried to be first to the gate.
After buying a Fjord, the friend remained a believer in the reward system. Her Fjords remained pushy to the end.
@@asilah3164 uy how terrible i am sorry you have that experience I wanted to buy a fjord and none of the breeders that I contacted told me about those issues your friend had!!
@@asilah3164 nothing wrong with using R+ and treats - i do so with my fjord just fine. However using treats wrong is where problems start, just as using pressure/release or punishment can be done wrong and cause behavioral problems!
fjords are not naturally pushy, but they are very inteligent.
Fjords are just playing when pushy. Had one, miss him.
What a character.
Love this! I'm a farrier and when I show up to trim and the horse is walking all over the owner like they don't exist, I know I might need to 'change hats' and train a bit beforehand. Often times I will do similar things and get the horse to respect me more than the owner and they're amazed how quickly they stand so nicely for me. But it's simple concepts! In fact, today, I'm meeting with a farrier client who wants me to start working on body control with her and her draft cross mare. Its been nice watching your videos to brush up on things or learn new things since I'm mostly under the horses trimming now 😂
I really like this horse's attitude and mind. That's going to make a really nice adult.
I did too! Man! Smart as a whip! He will be a breeze to train!
Love to see the affects of natural horsemanship. It's always amazing when you see that first awareness on the horse side of "wow, someone that knows how to talk horse." Great work!
I see when Ryan began working him , the horse quieted down and began to pay attention. Big change . Good job, beautiful horse. Thanks for the lessons. 🇨🇦
Great work, not many guys use a green horse to demonstrate.
The difference between a hack and a professional.
Well done !
Thanks
He is so gorgeous. I'm sorry the handler didn't realise that he truly was distracted by the 'other horse' in the mirror!
Yes, he thought it was another horse. My friend’s horse tried to kick forward at her own reflection!
Yes! He was talking to the other horse lolz
Exactly the horse saw his own reflection in the mirror & of course he doesn't know it's him, he thinks it's another horse😅😂🤣.....
Doesn't matter what distractions are around. There will always be distractions. Horse still needs to be trained to respect handler.
@@suzannefranklin7946 That's it! It doesn't matter WHY, it's HOW you handle it.
It is well fed. The fjord horse is relatively easy to feed, watch out for the hole when it has finished growing. Good of this girl to ask for help in time, when she can not solve the problem herself.
Greeting from Sweden:)
Thank you, Ryan! I spent 15 minutes with my pushy and herd-bound yearling using Ryan's owning space game and we finally won! Afterwards, the other horses were outside with their morning hay and I kept her in the barn to eat. She was fine at first, because she could still see them through a gate. Then a sudden rain storm popped up and she went ballistic trying to ram and jump the gate to get out. Thankfully, my homemade gate withstood it and she didn't get hurt, but I stayed in the barn with her and she eventually found her comfort with me. She was able to stand quietly, while I then picked up all four feet during the rain & wind whipping outside. And she wasn't even tied. Recovery took maybe 5 minutes!
I'll never own a horse myself but these kinds of videos are so amazing. Just seeing two entirely different animals cooperating so well is amazing. You handled that horse with a lot of respect and it's really admirable.
Excellent demo of boundaries. You never make him do anything outside of “nope my space move out of my space”.
Thanks
He wasn't anxious he seen himself in the mirror lol how cute!
Exactly why he was yelling too. 😒
Exactly!! LOL
Thats why he called for sure! But you can still see some anxiety regardless.
Probably calling thinking it was another horse, pretty sure animals don't recognise themselves in mirrors
@@JodieTotman Yes but what we are saying is that Ryan said he was anxious that wasn't anxious he just wanted to play with the horse in the mirror :)
A typical young Fjord, they push instead of run if they are insecure. They need a owner who is very consequent at all times, but they are very sweet and very sturdy horses. My friend has one who is 32 years old.
He was checking out that stud in the mirror
Stunning looking horse. I didn't realize that the dorsal stripe went down the middle of the tail too.
That little horse has looks and brains!
I don't have a horse, and I don't ride them. How did I fall into this rabbit hole and why is this so interesting?!
My fjord Tuff Stuff earned his name by not letting anything get in his way if a wheel barrow or manure cart was blocking the barn aisle he would simply shove it aside and walk past if a gate was closed keeping him from graze, he would find a way to open it, he could be a little hard headed at times, but was a great mount!
“Choose to yield” no pressure on the rope. Love it
I love Ryan’s approach.
Often people try to force a horse to do a specific action - and then also communicate it in a way they don’t understand.
Love that we’ve got a green horse and Ryan keeps it as simple as “you can’t be in my space but you can go anywhere else.” He doesn’t feel stuck or trapped.
What a beautiful Fjord!! I love these and also Haflingers. They have in common the strength of a small draft, usually very trainable and quick to learn, and the high propensity to bully in hand and under saddle with no malice intended. My personal success with all breeds is to not let them begin any type of bullying, Especially these!! To make it their choice to be lite in their bridle and never let them even start being pushy (never let them know how strong they are) , for me is very important. If a rider allows sustained pressure against the bit it will usually escalate and then it is a retrain situation that takes far longer than doing it right in the first place. It is so good that this owner enlisted help to stop the bullying early in this splendid horse's life.
I can't believe how much the pony's manner changed! Very interesting!
I mean he’s such a gorgeous horse. Absolutely stunning 🤩
He’s such a beautiful horse, and maybe a bit vain. He was whinnying at himself in the mirror as if saying “I’m such a good-looker”. 😉
Of course he isn’t, he thinks it’s another horse.
I love how he taught this. I was taught the same things and theyve proven to work across the board. Its so nice to see other people looking at things from the horse's point of view and really giving them a fair chance so we can have a strong bond with them.
Looking forward to seeing how it goes with Rachel and her handsome horse. Thanks for letting us see a beginning lesson.
He sees himself in the mirror, that’s why he’s calling out
Yes, he thinks it’s another horse
Mirrors are dumb.
Thanks for sharing the start of the journey! What a great first session.
Thank you, this is the first video I have seen which deals with the problems we have encountered. Looking forward to seeing how you progress with Rachel and her colt.
That same confidence that is so great working, causes this tendency for him to be pushy. Direct it the right way and he'll be an amazing horse.
Agreed
Great video, very helpful. Had to laff when I read the title! In our school barn, there was one beautiful Norwegian Fiord mare, incredibly stubborn! All the students cringed if we saw OUR name assigned to ride Olga! Yikes!
But she did have a lovely gait.
I enjoy watching instruction videos by several different experienced horsemen, to add different bits of knowledge from each one, and different opinions from other readers.
However, I was distracted and annoyed by two posters who argued on and on about "fear" vs "self in a mirror"! Good grief, ladies!
Afraid? No. He's calling to the horse he sees in the mirror
Hence, looking for reinforcement/ herd support because he’s afraid.
@@dawnaustin4556 I see no fear. Have a great day
Matia Swartz insecurity is a trait of fearful, lack of confidence personality. Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there.
Have a fantastic day!
@@dawnaustin4556 I train with animals so I am well aware of what insecurities are. I spoke my opinion just because you don't agree with me does not mean I am wrong. Now do take care.
Matia Swartz well, in this case your opinion means nothing as this trainer solved the issue rather quickly as he recognized the problem. It’s not a matter of opinion but facts. I train horses for a living and this man is right on. The proof is in the pudding as we say in America. Good luck to you and stay constantly learning. It’s the only way forward.
I'm so happy I found you! I'm learning how to train at school, and I'm working with a yearling appendix stud colt who's already very pushy. It's scary at times because he's already super tall and I'm on the short side, and I've already been kicked once. Your videos are super helpful!
He needed to learn boundaries and personal space right from the start. I had similar problems with my Fjord but he learned very quickly that you can look at stuff but you cant pull push or step into my space without permission. Its very hard to establish that in the beginning and can be mentally exhausting but once you have the respect AND keep it. Life gets easier and they respect you as the leader.
Well done! I have a coming yearling QH (now gelded) colt that is very similar in personality and behavior. This was really helpful for me to visualize my approach with him! Thank you!!
real great job. My friend and me just helped someone start their 5 year old Haflinger mare that sadly didn't get any training at all so far. Her behavior was really similar to this, insecure, pushy, always up in our space. Our approach was basically this and it's really cool to see real professionals also do it this way. Subscribed for more :)
People drive me crazy yanking on the leads!!! I want to put a halter on them and yank like that. 😞 Thank you for showing her to move his hip. He is going to be a great horse if handled right. ☮️🙏💜💡☯️🌈🐴
Goodness, what a beautiful horse! He should be a stud!
Great video you explain it so well. Helping my daughters and a good friend with colts and this will help them with the explanation and technique .
Looking forward to watching Rachel and her horse make progress!
Please mic the owners if you’re going to ask them questions or have them give background . I’ve enjoyed a few of your videos, but noticed this is an issue. We can’t really hear them
Great first session!!
He see the other horse in the mirror 🤣he said ok your my leader I feel much more comfortable 🙂look at the difference between him and her completely different horse what a good boy.
Nice job Ryan. Glad to have caught your channel.
Thank you for charing. So great to see how it is done! 😊
I started watching your videos and really appreciate how you explain the horse culture you are working in. I genuinely think the human training looks more challenging than the horse side. I imagine this is owners anthropomorphizing the horses rather than learning how the animal is actually attempting to communicate. Great job!
Really good to see. Great explanation of make vs want when yielding the hindquarters. Thank you for posting.
thank u very much i really love horses and ppl make content and teaching us ur great keep going and ur channel will come bigger by time i wish u the best
Thank you 🙏
Very educational. Thank you.
another great video, love your training style!
Awesome, thank you brother!
I've watched a bunch of trainers..not sure why I enjoy your videos so much, but part of it is your self-deprecating manner, and personality....but today's video really was cool how quickly that horse changed!! Really amazing (as was the fact that someone as dim-witted as myself could see it )....see? I sound just like you (just not as clever). Thank you!
I absolutely love this little video.
I really like the Fjord horses they can be used for almost everything and perfect horses for children looves food and can gain easily weight greatings from Sweden 😊
Heck Ryan you have to many interesting videos, I think I will be watching them forever.!!!
Omg, his mane is insane! And he picked up your training so quickly:)
Beautifully explained!
Thanks
I love Fjords they are one of my fave breeds.
Super helpful tips thanks🐎💓
Excellent horseman.
Beautiful horse!
Agreed
Very clear and helpful!
I truly want to see part two and three with this Fjord!! Please and thank you!
Great knowledge mate, with humor and expertise, owning space.
I have a mare who does this, I'm trying this strategy as soon as I can! thankyou so much for posting this!
You bet 💯✅
What an absolutely beautiful fjord pony.
for a first session.....you did good!!!
That was an excellent lesson!
Thanks
Beautiful to watch!
😀
Also a long time dog trainer. And horses. Love seeing the yield space skills. I would have to physically help some students walk through their dog so dog stopped controlling spaces - Animals so much better at training than we are! Reward what you love and ignore what you don’t has very definite limits - reward what you love and block what you don’t, made so much more sense. And the idea of human calm as a horse reward! Going to add that more consciously. A food trainer with loose housed horses, I always asked for space so I didn’t end up in a pack of ‘gimme some treats’ pushy horses. Although I have retired from riding, we still have 3 horses in the barn, so I really enjoy your presentation and always a delight to see a skilled handler working.
This trainer is awesome
It looks like sees himself in the mirror and calls to the horse he sees. I don’t see fear. Oh well what do I know..
Great vid thanks I look forward to seeing lesson 10
He was watching himself in the mirror. He probably thinks it's another horse.
I like coming away from a lesson knowing more than I did before, with less confusion. Thanks! ...haha, probably the horse likes that, too...
Beautiful horse
Thankyou 🥰
He is calling out to the other horse in the arena that he sees!
Fjords are horses, not ponies. He’s just beautiful,!
He -this colt is Absolutely beautiful and he sees his reflection and was calling to it 😂❤ but you Ryan are awesome too!
I really like the way you teach. I’ve joined your patreon. 😊
Awesome thanks!
I absolutely love this video, it does such a great job of explaining the "Why's" with a great real time explanation of each correction. Is this where you would also start with a pushy weanling?
Love this size horse// pony!
Beautiful horse
Talking to himself in the mirror...🤩🤩
The lady was too busy/ pushy on his face
Thanks from Germany 👋 ‼️
Oops I replied to the wrong message
Exactly like my Fjord colt's behaviour. Thank you for the lesson
! They have to quit janking the holter like that!
What a cutie that pony is!
This horse is distracted by the horse in the mirror.
You didnt mention the mirror ! It was a major distraction to him.
He didn't seem to catch that.
Love how the color of his mane is bicolor. Edited to say tail too.
He is a smart colt. He immediately knew he could run all over her. Likewise, he immediately knew he could NOT run all over you. My next question is, why isnt he gelded? lol, cause there is half the headache gone!
What he is saying is exactly right! applies to dogs and owners too!
