    I love your Uncle's horse understanding!!! He has the wisdom and insight of some of the British and European trainers... "Flexibility," head lowering, "space," softening, etc., the "quiet control"!!!

    I like “real world problems” with horses and pressure. This was realistic.I like how he used the lead rope to pressure with driving pressure and release. Best training I have seen on this channel.

    Your brother is telling it right. Watch his hand position. When it is time to ride his hands will follow the same angle so the cue remains nearly the same. It is not about man strength but pressure and release, they seek the release and your hand doesn’t move. Horses are nearly always better on one side of the other must ,Ike people, left or right. Consistent flexing is a main foundation block for softness and ultimately control. Teach this to our riding students the first riding lesson. Ground work is very important. This was terrific. Hindquarters are the horse’s engine. Thanks for sharing! EastTexas fan PS. Moving a horse’s feet engages their brain

    Hi, Palmer family. Well, I was riveted to this man and his knowledge. I had no idea there were so many facets to training a horse. It's not just getting the animal used to a blanket and a saddle and eventually allowing someone on its back. I love that you (Alan) were struggling with this particular horse, knew it, and sought out help that you knew you'd find in your brother. And quietly in the background, there was our Blake learning and understanding what Levi was teaching. It's just amazing to me. Thank you so much for bringing us along. This was an awesome video for anybody who loves the horse and loves learning about the animal. Hi, Vicki. I know you're there editing and reading the comments. I hope your week is going well. As always, take good care on the farm and stay well.

  • @LynneDemonQueen1
    @LynneDemonQueen1 3 роки тому +4

    Some horses will always go into pressure rather than away from pressure, it's how their brain works. My draft mare goes into pressure and my QH goes away from pressure. I'm not liking the raising of the hand at her face or the hitting and elbowing Dollys face, that can and most likely will make her headshy. It's not her respecting his hand up, she's avoiding being hit again. Everything else explained will help. Dolly is willing and wanting to understand what you're asking so she can please you. She's a keeper. Keep your hand on her back, that will help your balance as well but it also lets you feel her movement. Find what works for you and her and go with it. When I ask for flex without moving a foot, I'll place my free hand and on her wither instead of on her back. The shoulder is the "drive line" you can push a horse forward or make them stop depending where you are positioned to their shoulder. A little secret with knowing if a horse is right or left handed.... their manes fall on their on side. If she's left handed her mane will fall on the left side of her neck. If she's right handed her mane will fall on the right side of her neck. I've learned this to be true finding out which barrel to go to first in barrel racing and it's never failed me!

    Training the trainer. You cain't lay hands on her and push her she is stronger than you. Make yourself spend time with her every day. Short days, a full schedule and too many horses is dragging you down. She is a fast learner with a pretty good disposition. You have a habit of wanting to be close to them and not being aggressive when you need to be. I think the key is working with her every day. Neither one of you forgets. Hang in there it will come together.
