As most of you know I bought Mushu about a month ago. It was a crazy, yet wonderful adventure. In this video you will get to see Mushu's learn how to line up at the mounting block. We will work on relaxation, softness, lunging, and yielding. See how Mushu interacts with our training and how he does. Also, listen for tips, tricks, advice, and my philosophy when it comes to horse training. As always, Enjoy the ride! 🔔 IF YOU ENJOY MY CONTENT SUBSCRIBE!
    🦄🤩💖MUSHU: (Hermit's Expresso) Gelding
    Mushu is a registered Gypsy Vanner gelding who was imported from England as a colt. He came to me from New York, and he just turned 3 years old in June of 2022. Mushu is silly, beautiful, and FULL of personality. He currently stands at 13.3hh (should finish out around 14-15hh). He has the LP gene which gives him his coat pattern and the mottling of the skin. I can't wait to train him and start our adventure together.

    You and Mushu remind me of a crepe tower - layers upon layers of trustful yummfulness. He has such a good attitude and is just ridiculously cute. Methinks you really lucked out with buying him sight unseen. Well done, Shea. Really, really well done.

    Mushu is my absolute favourite today. He's so sweet and fun wanting to be a best friend. How when you are on one side petting the other, he's looking to see how that happens? Yet how quick he's mastering the mounting block where you can flood him with cuddles añd praise. He's looks the sort that if you snuck onboard and carried on cuddling he'd be happy with it. Adorable. OBS, your doing a great job with him too but it's all about mushu🥰

    You're doing a great job with his ground work. He's very responsible in his movements to you. I think these Gypsy Vanners are a really smart breed. He seems really careful as he tries to understand what you want from him. I think he is going to be fun to ride. He's very sweet and doesn't seem to have any attitudes. Where he was raised, they really did a good job in maintaining his quiet manner as he is very stable in his movements.

Also wanted to let you know that right after I watched your last video with Mushu that UA-cam sent me a video of a guy training a young Gypsy Vanner mare that also had Appaloosa coloring. I was so surprised. She looked just like Mushu except that the spots covered a little more of her back. It is on Colton Woods Horsemanship channel in case you're interested.

    @denisedavis6596 Рік тому

    This was SO fun to watch!! I have a question please.
    I notice how much praise you give your horses, I also notice you giving treats. Is there certain treats they like better than others? And just like humans, does the majority of your horses like the same treats or do they wildly vary?
    I’ve seen treats that are peppermint or apple flavored. Do you prefer giving natural treats like carrots or apples instead of manufactured treats?
    Sorry, I’m just really curious. One of my horses loved carrots but didn’t like apples, another horse would spit out carrots and only wanted apples. I’ve not owned a horse since 2004, there wasn’t as many store bought treats back then.
    Thanks Shae!! 😊
