    I taught my quarab mare to take a treat from my lips. It was random as I went out with a pouch full of apples chunks to work on picking up her feet(it's the one thing she's touchy about since we had out one really rough farrier) I have a bad knee and needed to sit down so I just sat on a hay bale and taught it to her.
    A little warning don't do this is your horse is nippy or aggressive with taking treats as a bite to your face can be dangerous.

  • @maddalenahylton

    My 2 year olds tail is shorter than Banksy’s. Wtf😭
    I also have a question for you. What would you recommend to do for a horse that tries to kick you when you pick up their back feet. My colt had an owner before me that didn’t know how to train horses at all and I’m afraid, and fostered quite a few bad habits for him. He not only tries to kick but also will jerk his feet out of my hand. Any ideas?

    • @Milestone-Equestrian
      @Milestone-Equestrian  3 роки тому +8

      Lena Hylton I would work on getting him comfortable with them being touched and handled without necessarily picking up and holding and then you could teach an up cue and reward it when he holds his leg up, should help remove any negative association they have. If they’re just kicking lightly and not dangerously, I also just hold until they stop for a moment then put the foot down and scratch as a reward

    • @maddalenahylton
      @maddalenahylton 3 роки тому +2

      Shelby Dennis ok thank you! It’s a bit of an aggressive kick, he will kick out to the side too. I’ll just start with them being touched.

    • @iclynnx
      @iclynnx 3 роки тому

      That reminds me of what a young lesson horse did/does when picking his hooves. I believe he was a Thoroughbred mix too. I don't observe much when on lessons, I focus on my own given pony, so I don't know if he's getting better, and I have not been given him for the lessons since it didn't go so well for me the last two times. I asked for another horse both times, he was being incredibly annoying and I didn't have patience. It messes with my confidence so I don't want to ride a horse like that. We are not made for eachother at all. But my point is, unless that young horse has gotten better now, the ones who work there should really read Shelby's advice.

    • @Vic.Toria.
      @Vic.Toria. 3 роки тому

      When you have a horse like that, do what Shelby said but with a lead rope around the foot, cause you can use the rope around the ankle to lift it, keep a steady pressure and let them realize kicking isnt going to get what they want, then you can progress to using hand :3

  • @iclynnx
    @iclynnx 3 роки тому +1

    You are doing such a good job with Banksy! He's growing really well. But if you don't mind, may I ask why you're dropping his feet after picking the hooves? Is it not better to put them down easily instead of just letting go so they bump into the ground? Just a genuine question, I read somewhere that it's kind to the horse to put down the feet after picking them instead of dropping them.

    • @Milestone-Equestrian
      @Milestone-Equestrian  3 роки тому

      He is perfectly capable of learning how to put them down himself instead of having them lazily be dropped. And he will.

    • @iclynnx
      @iclynnx 3 роки тому

      @@Milestone-Equestrian Alright, thanks for taking the time to reply. Personally I prefer putting them down but you do you, the Banksy doesn't seem to mind. I'm only concerned if it hurts even a bit or not, my human mind wants to compare it to stubbing your toe with a long nail or feeling the force in your knees, but I assume that's not the case. I don't doubt what you know at all, I simply prefer a different way, so I hope you didn't dislike that. Have a good day then!

    • @Milestone-Equestrian
      @Milestone-Equestrian  3 роки тому

      Icy Fleckz they stomp their feet at flies and hit wooden rails when jumping eventually, so I would be very much surprised if it caused pain given the amount of impact the legs and hooves take from everyday mundane activities.
