I love when we get to see Jimmy and Chevy ❤
Thanks for the lesson,I like it so much that Steve is so gentle with the horses unless of course when her needs to firm up but just enough to get through to the horse and it's about your safety and the horses,I have been watching you guys for two years,and am have told so many people about you, thank you for all of the horse sence😊
Oh great a baby Nita can’t wait 🐎🐴🐴🐴🐴
What wonderful news about Nita!!!
Thank you for the close up explanations today on rope halters and tying. Congrats to Nita!
So happy your keeping Jimmy , looking forward to seeing his progress as a ridden horse , he has that cheekiness in his face that just makes him so lovable .
Nita is like What the heck?!? when you keep redoing the halter. She is such a star.
Great explanation videos. Sorry no ideas as not a horse owner. I'll always vicariously live through you guys.
Brilliant news that Jimmy is staying! When you bought him , I straightaway thought that he was a bit special! Looking forward to seeing more about and of him!
Hello👋 Karen from Canada 🇨🇦
I bought two of your ties, one for each horse, I love them and highly recommend them!!
I'm so happy Jimmy is staying, I was taken back when he was to leave. I wanted to continue watching his progress. I understand when he is well trained you may depart but it was like he never had a chance once Chevy arrived.
I have enjoyed and learned from all your videos and tips, I believe my horses would thank you too. We have much better communication with each other.
Happy Trails🐎🐾
Yay!! I’m so happy to hear both Chevy AND Jimmy are staying, at least for now. 😍
Glad you've decided to keep Jimmy I love following him
By the way, I received my long lead rope yesterday. Thanks for that. You mailed it on the 28th of last month so it wasn't a long wait really.
Did Steve invent the tie? It is a must have piece of equipment! This video is very helpful. Thank you.
Top tips: Am not a horse person, but just love your videos - they make me feel like we're family and I watch every minute, no matter how long and love them! Have seen a few other horse videos from other "horse people" and the ears on their horses are back a lot of the time, including when they are praising them, even if the praise is only verbal. Please do a tip video on why you want the ears to be forward, why it's so important to correct unrequested forward motion, why you should stroke rather than pat the horse, why you don't use treats, why pain is the worst motivator, the importance of getting the horse to put his head down (relax), and why so many horse people walk right beside their horses rather than like you do - use a long line? It's almost like using a loose leash for dog training. How do you instill in people to have that loose leash - why it's so important? Am guessing that could be multiple tip videos, but you talk about those things in almost every one, just thought it might be great for a short, concise, all in one top tips video. You know like a greatest hits with all the background music, right? Hope that helps.
I missed Nita being bred as well. I’m so glad you’ll have her baby, she’s a special girl. My QH mare lived to 34, so you’ve got lots of time with her still. Oh, keeping Jimmy, and hopefully Chevy as well, makes me glad as well. Oh, I can’t wait for Nita to foal! Good days ahead😊. I typed my rope halter wrong for a long time, I’m embarrassed to say. My farrier told me twice before it stuck, what I was doing wrong. Now it’s habit. Tie to the “post” he kept saying 😂. It’s really much simpler to tie correctly than to tie it wrong. I kept thinking that can’t be right because it felt to simple!
When did Nita get bred, to who, how did I miss that??
Yes, please!
I missed it to, would love to know the sires name in Breeding❤
It was mentioned in one of Charlotte's Shenanigans when she was talking about Molly, I believe.
Grew up on a cattle ranch with no horses.....love your videos and Steve's personality reminds me of my Dad. Wishing he had raised and worked with horses because he would have been a great trainer.......
I appreciated the demo and explanation of why and how on the halter and ties. Thank you so much Steve and Tanya! I am hooked on Steve's training techniques. I learned as a youth in Ohio, USA from horsemen long gone. Glad I found you! You have given me new eyes. Keep up the good work and I will join up electronically putting my money where my mouth is!😅 Love to you both, Jane
Love the quick demonstration. Perfect short film I can take with me to my horses to make sure I am doing it right.
Suggestion for more shorts - demonstrate each of the basic things like feet forwards, backwards, etc. so they are about 15 minutes each if possible please. Ta ever so
Tanya: love the holiday nails! Have a great time!!
Thanks for the informative video.Glad Jimmy is staying
New to Horses, tip videos are FANTASTIC. PLEASE MORE‼️‼️🐴🐴 THANK YOU, Vinny 🇺🇸
I’m so pleased Jimmy is staying because I think he’s sweet. Thanks for showing us.
Hi Both, I have a few of these ties (as you know from when you visited Nev) and I love them. Years ago I bred a horse who panicked every time he was tied up. In the end it became a game for him, he would slowly pull back to find the pressure then pull hard to snap whatever gave first. I went through so many headcollars and ropes that in the end I just didn't tie him, I just looped the rope through the string. I found a safety tie (equiping) that was a game changer, the game had gone so he didn't pull back anymore, unless he was genuinely scared, as there was no snap of rope, clip etc. The Ping was good but these safety ties are a massive game changer! Also you mentioned about the nylon 'normal' headcollars, if I put them on the mares, they know it and know they can pretty much go where they like unless it has a solid ring at the bottom and not one the moves along the back of the noseband. Keep up the good work, Chell x
Yep, brilliant ties, both of them. I bought from you. Short video?
Bitting for first time please if you have time. You included your method when out at a pony but cannot find now I need it again. Thank you so much fir everything. 😊
Excellent to see this and now uully understand the use of them
Am so pleased Jimmy is staying. I love his character.
I bought 4 of your ties. I gave two to my friend for her trailer and I use the other two. I absolutely love them. I had been using the blocker tie ring before but found I prefer yours, less clangy metal and more options for the level of pull. I like the videos of training tips as there are so many little things we can learn that can have a big impact on achieving a higher level of horsemanship and safety.
Love some short, sweet videos. Can’t think of a topic right now, of course, but it would be great.
Great video. I bought a couple of your safety ties a while back after seeing Steve use them and they are excellent! Great peace of mind when using them as it’s a much safer option 😊
Omg I do it right!! I was never sure so thank you!
Love the 'tips' videos Steve, Been watching you since lock down and came to the demo at Malthouse. Your techniques are so helpful especially for me with my opinionated Welsh pony. You asked for requests for your tips videos. Maybe you could do a short series on things like, backing them away and respecting your space and how to correctly use your long line. ( I've just moved to a new yard and everyone leads the old way, ie. By the shoulder.
Then one about disengagement, this technique has helped so much especially with lowering the head and neck. You could explain how and why it works, especially for people who have never seen your methods. I am an old lady (😮) with a 5 Yr old pony and I can confirm that your methods have got us out of sticky situations a few times. Keep up the fabulous work Steve and Tanya and Charlotte and thank you from the bottom of my heart x ❤
Such a good video... Trying to convince my friends why I already use them everywhere... And they often get one as Birthday/Christmas present. Please do a video on siding up .....I have watched but often Steve is up on a fence....Mounting block and you cant actually see what he is doing on the off side!!!! Keep up the good work.
The knot you use to tie up the halter is a modified SHEET BEND. Normally used to join two ropes of unequal sizes. Normally the loop is made of the thicker rope. You have modified it by using the thin loop tied in the harness and passing the thicker rope (double rope) through the loop. I remember how two tie this knot by - the snake come out of his hole at the base of a tree, around the back of the tree and under his own tail. This knot can be google searched as SHEET BEND.
Thanks! Have a great holiday. 💜🇺🇸
Tanya you have a very nice voice for narration, I think. Have you considered auditioning for the BBC?
This is great, absolutely simple and I can totally see. Now i'd LOVE to see something this simplified for leg and body positions when riding. Horse owners in my area seem to not know much about this stuff or something. The horses around here are hand fed, in your space, and just little untrained stinkers. I've just been training the pushy ones to back up and give space and quite being nippy. No one knows one eye two eye it seems either. One poor horse was running away from everyone and they tried for 6 months to make friends with him with carrot bribes and he only improved a tad. I tried one eye two eye with him and was able to stand with him and groom him in about 10 minutes. He's not actually wild, he was tame at one point but left alone for years and got fearful I guess (he's rescued so we don't know his whole history). Anyway, he's not the aggressive type and not a feral so he could learn fast with the right method. Kinda sad though, I'm on my own here, there's no one to ask. I am doing volunteer work at a horse rescue locally. They get good food and quarters but no one knows the behavioral treatments.
CONGRATS TO NITA!🥰
Love your videos. Always so informative. As for possible video tip ideas, the main important training tips you think would be beneficial broken down by when you should do to them. Broken by say things you would recommend working: daily, every couple of days, once a week, and once a month or so.
I don't have a horse, so my questions should be lower in priority. I am curious about the different ways Steve touches a horse to "let it know how good it is." I've noticed he touches different locations for this, too. Does Steve breathe out or anything else when he is trying to show the horse he "is a good guy?" I understand why it's better to avoid patting or slapping the horse to let it know you're pleased, but maybe Steve could include that in a talk about the nonverbal communication he does so a horse will understand when it is succeeding.
Also, Steve says he makes sure to think about the positives because horses are able to read us better than we can read each other. What other ways are there to make sure his mind is in the right place so the horse can read his intentions?
maybe a mike for steve to carry with him, then we could hear him better when he is moving about.
Good job Tonya, this really brings me up-to-date I’ve been wondering this for nine minutes to a year. Well done I now feel when I buy your products I’ll know how to use them. And why.
Steve thank you for all that you do in telling the pros and cons. Absolutely vital to me, I am finally venturing into being a horse owner. And you are priceless in helping me make up for lost time.
"Make the KNOT down around the LOOP/HOLE, not up on the straight." 😉
Quick double check when done & it becomes obvious 😃! Just a different way that finally made sense to me years ago & STUCK. Hope it helps the folks, like me, who just maybe need to hear & see it that way. Fantastic job Steve & Tanya as always! You & all your work are PRICELESS!
Ordered two ties from you and use them , love them, highly recommend them! Can be used everywhere for quick easy tie-up and don’t have to thread ropes. Saw someone use a clip on a hitching post using a tie ring (probably Steve’s video) instead of the old fashioned knots. Also, I inherited a horse who panics and cannot be tied up anywhere and I plan to install a clip somewhere extra safe to see if we may have a chance to fix this issue. 🐴🤠
Excellent tips!😊
Loved that demo on the safety clip. Thanks!
Love the tips!❤
Aww great newz about nita and jimmy staying x ❤
Thank you so much🐺❤️
Good information glad you are keeping Jimmy
As I commented previously, I want to buy a tie sooooo badly, and I don't own a horse. LOLOL Enjoy all your videos.
Love, love love it!! ❤
Thank you for this short ans very usefull explaination.
I’d love one on how to correctly adapt a rope halter … thank you for everything, I learn so much from your vidéos.
Congratulations on Nita being in foal! Have you bred her before? Could this foal be a future riding horse for you?
Sending love and light from here.
How is the father. Maybe one of the youngsters?
Thanks!
Great and informative tip video guys. Have a great trip to Malaga!❤
Yeah Jimmy and Chevy!!
Awww! A baby Nita…
Yep. I've got a couple of the ties from you Steve and very happy with them. Just a question......when travelling a horse which headcollar would you use? I travel my horses in double trailer with the partition out so they get to move their feet and wedge themselves on either side. Just wondering if I tied too loose they might be able to turn round. I've a last new horse arrive today so will be doing the ground work with her after she's settled in. Should mention I only travel one at a time.
I just love your videos I'm obsessed haha, I've recently got my first shared loan and he's been allowed some bad habits. Although a complete novice I've been working on space and disengaging his hind quarters etc He's a bugger for snacking when in work mode and throws his head down when riding any tips on those habits? Thank you for being you and sharing to the world the pure connection between human and horse ❤
I put a rope halter on my mare and she was immediately more responsive with far less pressure. She never wears it unless we are together. I never leave on a regular halter either.
I haven't been around horses since I was young, and it was not often enough. I never had real training, so I live vicariously through you. My question is about the horses who are being worked with indoors. They're tied with both sides of the harness (or bridle) attached across to walls on either side of the head. They aren't able to turn, or drop, their head. I would think this is not only uncomfortable, but if they're frightened, there's no movement. Why do they tie them like this? Do they not trust the horse? I've never heard Steve comment on this.
Before anyone says it, yes I know Chevy is a Quarter Horse. That being said he's also a pinto (perfectly acceptable in the AQHA). His stockings come above the knees which qualifies him as a pinto. He is gorgeous. Plus, I can't wait to see Nita's foal in the spring
Ah Nita expecting lovely.
A tips video would be helpful thank you
Dear Tanya & Steve can you do a short video on how tie a western saddle girth? My horse is Friesian/Paint blend 17 hand and a typical Friesian stance hold head high and super difficult to find a saddle with a tree (traditional) that fits so I ended up buying a treeless saddle (western style), I know you’ll laugh its designed and made in German go figure and it for endurance riding but devil if I can remember how to tie the western girth (you know the way you go in twice and tie off). I bought the saddle in Canada hahaha…
Hi Steve. How can you tell the difference between a horse being curious and a horse pushing on you (i.e. moving you) when she leans over the stable door. (not during feeding just when you are in the stables)?
Nita couldn't be bother. Love those kind of horses. Put a nylon halter on one arm with a eyes closed. Them on the other car put a rope halter on. Which one is lighter and would you rather wear for hrs on end
Nice video. I would like to have your opinion on what to do at what age with a horse.
Love the tip video! I’m still unsure how the spliced lead rope would attach to the rope halter without a clip. Do you need to untie a part of the rope halter? I’ve not worked with them before.
❤
Can you demonstrate how you use these safety ties in a trailer ?
How do the safety ties work with a cotton lead?
I work with equine therapy here in Southern California. We have a pony we got recently that is very mouthy. Since we have to walk directly by his head during sessions we have had a difficult time training him to keep his mouth off of us. We can’t correct him much while having a client on him but have tried to gain respect doing ground work prior. He knows the corrections are limited while a student is on his back. How do we correct this bad behavior?
I am not Steve, and hopefully he answers you, but to me it sounds like you need to work on him respecting your space. Work on that thru groundwork from a distance like Steve does, and once the horse understands that well, you can start moving and holding the lead much closer. But keep the idea in mind that even when you are holding him more closely, he still has to respect your space, and when he doesn’t you back him, or disengage him just like you will on a longer rope. Do all of this without a rider, and when it is solid, put an experienced rider on him and continue the same process. If he reaches out with his mouth, make him back up across the ring, or disengage 10 times. It’s really still all about respecting your space, even if you have chosen to move in closer to him.
I always buy leather halters (wait till they are on offer/sale). With a breakaway!
This was very interesting and informative. I’m guessing the halter size s. depends on breed and age as the size is not adjustable? Thank you for sharing. Good call Tanya.
❤😊
👍😊👍
😍
Yeah, Jimmy gets to stay. I know it is a hard decision. He couldn’t have a better home. Thanks for the demo
The paper that says all that, but it’s fine.
I bought halter, rope and ties from SYH (and a flag and bonging stock 🤩). I'm wondering about how to use the tie in a trailer...it's there a risk they could pull the rope back so far they could turn? Another question ..my horse was tired with the rope and tie bit I'm guessing not heavy enough as she spooked, pulled the rope all the way through and got away (a short distance). Is she likely to learn from this as she would from breaking free?
You should get a really great. mule!!!
Can't order your products from Spotify because it will not recognize a US phone number. Fix? Amazon? Ebay?
We LOVE your content, advice and tools because you "Keep It So Simple" KISS KISS KISS
Any chance you can explain how to inject the whole tube of oral worm paste into the back of the mouth...
not everywhere else.. and
without hiding it... ( under the brim of your cap while faking a muzzle snuggle and sneaking it past whiskers)
or ... using the mounting block for giraffes CHEERS Pretty nail colour Tanya, enjoy Spain
Nita is preggers? By whom? When was she covered? Might we get details on the stallion?
ive had one of these for years,with a rope halter,wouldnt use anything else,i have it on the double loop only because if she sees a blade of grass she will pull out to eat it lol..i could do with a new halter but finding a 'real' one is proving to be a minefield,could i ask were you source yours please
Hi I have a question. I have a mare .She is lovely and stand nicely in the stable but sometimes I have to tie her from both side of her halter if there is other horses there for security (I will tell the owner about the safety ties!). Never pull back. Now to give her a shower outside I have to tie her from under the halter on the big bar you know as we can see in western movies. I am not really tie her just put the lead around the bar once. I am scared that if she ever pulls back she will get hurt. So I do not tie the lead. But this at home. If I go on a ride and have to stop somewhere for a little while and have to tie her and she gets afraid of something and pull I swear I will panick. How do I show a horse not to pull ? If she never did (she is 7 now) does it means she is OK? Thanks
Steve, round horseshoes or shoes open at the back……and navicular??? What do you think?
Some wise man once Said to me never ever tie Your horse in a robehalter and i believe it’s correct I know here You use these safety rob that give to pressure but robehalte is fore groundwork only. The robehalter is so strong that if The horse puls back and panic The risk for injury is very High The horse Can simple damage The neck spine I would not use it this Way - that Said all respect fore what you do Steve I try to see all Your video.
SO glad that Jimmy is staying. I would like to see him complete his training with you rather than go somewhere else and maybe not reach his full potential. Thank you for the tips. I still think a biography in book form would sell like hotcakes. You keep saying you have not done something for 20-25 years. So what happened at that time when so much changed? And when did you first have contact with horses?
How do I get you to send me a couple of the safety ties?? 👍
Rope headcollars great for small ponies as there is not much space on their little heads for tack... also... easy to put through the WASH! Webbing headcollars always look mucky
Huh. I didn’t get an explanation. 😊
Why can't I hear you?
These ties are just not helpful for my cat. Once the harness is on, the legs don't work so tying up the cat is quite useless. The end of the rope is a fun toy, but only once the harness is off.😂😂😂😂
The nylon halters are just terrible. I see so many without any breakaways…
Even in countries were they are common, not many people know how to tie a rope halter. This demo is far from a waste of time.
Don’t care for Jimmy. Really like Chevy though.
