What a change in a matter of 3 days. Brandy needed someone who understands horse behavior and teach her. Thank you for your kindness, consistency and patience with this beautiful mare. I’m looking forward to the next video in the series.
Thank you, what a nice compliment. You know when we are young and reaching close to old enough we learn to drive then later maybe learn to repair our car. With horses it's totally backwards. People get a horse, wreck it, then learn to ride. There are lots of problem horses out there that would have been nice if someone hadn't wrecked them first.
Thank you for the good souls who rescued this lovely girl and thank you to Tim for his fair and consistent training methods. Great progress in a few days.
Good morning Well done you... Brandy is shaping up. Getting a horse to engage and put some effort forth feels so rewarding. Such a difference. Thanks for sharing
Tim, great technique of your training. I love watching all three of this horse. I believe your way Technique would be helpful for many parents with toddler children. You have accomplished of saving this horse from being put down. I’m very proud of you.
Haflingers were bred to transport goods and their rider on dangerous alpine trails in the Swiss alps. They’re bred to be strong fearless and confident. The trick is to keep their confidence and willingness to please but teach them respect and who makes the decisions around here…
My dear 31 year old companion horse was ( necessarily) euthanized last month and I needed to replace her with another companion horse for my riding horse. My friend's pushy 19 year old halflinger has just come here.... first day she would not let me put on her ( necessary as her white nose gets sunburn) sun cream and fly mask protection-- I did exactly what you suggested-- put pressure on her when she turned away and backed off and was soft when she looked at me.... the next day she came to me when I showed her the mask and cream! My timing must have been right... yay! :) Small things but so important. Thank you Tim for being so clear in your instruction and compassionate with horses.
She's such a pretty girl. I've really enjoyed watching you work with her, and looking forward to seeing her, before she goes home. Since I'm just learning, I'm definitely going to have to watch this one a few more times. You made some observations of how her body is moving in a particular way (for the better), and I wasn't exactly sure of what you're referring to. This part of the subject (moving body parts) seems to be the hardest for me to grasp (I watch Pat Puckett as well, and he really confuses me)... ain't giving up though. ❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎
What do you do about her pawing in crossties? Ignore it? Pop her leg? I have a young mare that I’m bringing along and she gets impatient and paws sometimes when tied.
Are you going to do any more videos of Brandy ? I would like to see more of your reasoning of backing before going forward. I have a Haflinger also who has more go than whoa.
I was going to do another one of her just before she goes home so you could see the end result but maybe another before then would be a good idea. My backing her before I went forward was a great pick up on your part! I felt like she was thinking forward so I just did something else. Today I rode her and I did exactly the same things that I did on the video with the paint horse that went out today. The next step is working her mind to shift it out of forward, that would make a good video.
I have a pushy standardbred, he’s big, pretty, and thinks he’s in charge, always pinning his ears back. Do you want to train him? It would make a great video
I noticed the same thing. You’re the only one that mentioned it. She seems fine going the other direction. Perhaps she was a bit sore and worked it out?

So this one has been waiting her whole life to become a nice horse.Just needed someone like you to show her how. Hats off for a good job done.

It’s great to see her improving so quickly. She seems much more relaxed and less pushy.
Definitely!

I like how patient you are. Wonderful example. Thanks
Good morning

Good morning. It's exciting to me to see the transformation these horses make and I've enjoyed showing that transformation here in these videos.
This could be my haflinger's journey. Just being clear and consistent helped him tremendously and quickly.
Seems good natured; she is starting accept she is not the one in charge! Nice to see her improvement!!

Huge change with consistency.
Yes consistency is key.
Very nice!!!

I'm sure you're learning a lot and don't even realize it.

Do you train the owners, too? That seems pretty important, assuming they are trainable?
Lol. Yes. I do lessons here at my facility, group clinics around the country, and live video chat lessons for owners unable to do in person lessons.
She looks just a touch lame trotting to the left..lovely mare.
I saw that when i was editing the video but I didn't see it that day or since.
