This is the best film I have ever seen. Thank you 🙏
I will always have a respect for parents encouraging their children to have responsibility and love for their animals. How happy these children look and their horses, the have a job to do and they all take it very seriously and not one bloody phone or tablet in view. They are so helpful and supportive of each other. We could all learn a lot from the lifestyle and such parenting! Shame on everyone for judging what they do not know about.
Rose white you can clearly see these horses aren’t cared for one bit and most of them are lame and underweight 🤮
@@leo9565 you are looking through rather judgemental glasses
I really enjoyed that !! It done a excellent job of portraying horse culture in a positive light. Ride on !!
Mother was from County Cork, and was a great horsewoman living in Colorado. She taught me and my 4 sisters everything necessary to become great horse people. Love the horse, the music, the culture, and me irish clans, God it is great to be Irish!!!
Your from.were your born mate. Sorry to say
@@tomwallhead6950 na dats not really right... ye are what yer parents are. It doesnt matter were yer born if yer mother or father is irish by blood so ye are
Think the horses rather play with the folks than standing idol in the field. These spirited people are good to see
#paceoflife
Outstanding video
Thanks for sharing 👍👋
Ditto
What a beautiful film to watch. Thank you.
horses from travellers are the best they raise them to have great minds
They certainly are fascinating people with an amazing culture too.
A very romantizied view. Horses are being raced far too young (6 months upwards) and often handled roughly. Sad really that this issue is not being addressed in the video.
They're running the legs off foals! Horses need to be ATLEAST 3 before they do anything, Cobs like these don't stop growing until 8. Some of these babies were not even 12 months old. Vile vile vile.
Druid nobody knows what you are seeing they are fine
These horses are beautiful and IMO, well kept in a general sense.... my ONLY issue is the running/trotting on the roads. With shoes on, they dont get much traction either and can easily slip and fall. not to mention the pounding the legs take as the hooves have no give. its like a marathoner running barefoot. It is also soooo not good for the horses legs. I would like to know how many break down and see xray reports on their legs.
angela m I don't think the riders plan on them slipping, otherwise their life is in danger.
@@flip1111 doesn't mean it doesn't happen
@r w so are u saying there's no 2yr old gallopers racing at meetings ?and only trotters are worked out at 2 yr old ,?.?
angela m the pony still looks just a youngster to young for harness yet?
No different to a police horse in my opinion.
Wow incredible video 🙂
If you think their language is difficult..try talking to a native born glaswegian. I once had a conversation with a glaswegian In a bar..the only word i understood was trout..as for the test..i just nodded along and smiled when he did. I was playing catch up at every word. It was like trying to catch a runway horse..boy he spoke fast. I could see the glasses rattling on the bar as he spoke in rapid sentences. The draft from his mouth blew the head off of my beer and formed a whirlpool in my pint glass. And some people think they are lazy...joking right ?
Travellers horses left tethered on waste ground near industrial estates, old factories and power stations here in the UK. Never seen anyone go check on them. Saw two left near where I work on the shore of an estuary, high tide and rain came and the pair were almost lost, had to be rescued by the local farmers. This video is a bit far fetched, obviously for people who know no better. The trad music is a bit of a laugh too, never seen it played in Ireland except for the tourists, local people don't bother with it. Anyone with anything about them leaves the country, people are Irelands biggest export. Travellers just give the Irish community here in the UK a bad name.
What bullshit u talkn u ever hear of the fleidh ceol,ware it all traditional music,an wat goes on u.k nothin do with here,how u even know them horses are traveller owned u fool,i can gaurentee you majority of horse's in these videos are looked after beter than most kids
@Tom Roland you're obviously not knowledgeable about traditional music in Ireland. Traditional music is very much alive and well. Re the horses, what you've seen I'll accept, but if you want to be believed, stick to the things you really know about and dont be making generalisations about things you dont.
Are you serious? More people play Trad music in Ireland now than ever before.
any family coming to heol-ycyw?
Great Film, love the bond between the boy and his horse...but im worried about that no one wears a Helmet....then i saw the picture from Patrick MC carthy, and i read that he died from Head injuries after falling from his horse.
They are riding on the Street with no Helmets, the young Kids too.thats sad
Four words I think that describe the traveler..family, community, passion and horses. Not necessarily in that order. 😉
Thieving cousin marrying inbreds.
There's another 4.
I just went to the comment section to ask which kind of shoes these horses wear, to have a grip on the road... And if it wasn't hurting their legs to run on such hard ground.
That was until I saw the other comments...
A horse that I once rode got unsettled, near a street by a car and tried to take off with me still on top of it, and I remember how hard it skidded on the tarmac.
I felt like the horse and me were on ice with these iron shoes!
Anyway, in life things are often not perfect and even if its not the best for the horses to run on tarmac, I bet the Travellers don't do it every day with them. They seem to love their horses and they look well fed and brushed. I bet those horses have a better life than many horses at commercial riding schools!
I wish those people their horses, which are an essential part of their culture.
And let's be honest here, they may be racing their horses on hard ground sometimes, meanwhile we are torturing our mass produced meat, egg and milk " supply" every day in masses!
You call that shoeing a horse ? And the horses are bloody undernourished. People in the 20th century should know better .... but oh no....” it’s me culture “
The horses are well treated especially in the 21st century and its my culture gadji
I guess the female travelers who adore horses get to stand around and watch….just lovely. Most of the guys on horseback were far too large for the ponies they were burdening, and I couldn’t watch the horses trotting to hard on the paved roads. They were really thin, as well.
R.I.P
❤❤❤❤❤❤
If you shape the shoes to the foot instead of just nailing them on the horse will go a lot better 👍
A lot of these ponies are TOO YOUNG TO BE WORKING.
They are smashing animals, very nicely bred and l understand the passion and pride. But they are TOO YOUNG. Leave them to 2 or 3 year olds before you start them.
DID ANYONE SEE THE HORSE KICK THE DOG AT 8:50
Hahaha
The dog deserved it. If you think horses are hard on dogs you should see mules.
Only problem I have is this is that they are far to skinny , from the back it’s just bones
If travellers loved their horses as much as they say they'd feed them properly... not break them so young... not canter on roads and that man shoeing that horse needs to be trained properly...
I've nothing against travellers... just the way they treat their horses...
You sound like others on here saying I have nothing against travellers the horses are well looked after
Some are and some aren't...
aye, champion on t'camera, like. i've seen t'other side. not easy viewing.
6.50. man putting a shoe on a horse, shoe too small....
Way too small..... looks like a pre bought shoe of the wrong size just nailed on...the horses' toe extends the shoe by a good cm.
I would like to see you try Country boy
If u watch till after it u can c he turns down the hoof. He was using it as a guide probably so it was neat and not too short.
Even though trotting or above is bad for a horse's legs
Edit: ON CONCRETE, sorry, forgot that part
AlexWhybrow go and tell that to the to the people who hold trotting rally's all over the world ,not just the traveling people, stop stereo typing,
J paul who says I haven't... don't say shit if you don't know shit
I dont sense any stereotyping in what was said here... just said that trotting on concrete is bad for the horse's legs, which is true. in regards to holding trotting rally's all over the world... those are done on tracks with footing, not the roads. and if they are, then its the same... not good for the horses legs.
angela m THANK YOU!
I’m afraid you got that wrong read the history, the Romans the Greeks were doing the same thing 2000 yrs ago, these people love animals and they are not all bad, they are a human and why shouldn’t they lead a life of culture show kindness and compassion they are a proud people. I have great respect for them, and let’s be fair they get a bad deal, anyway that’s my opinion.
That Horese was almost kicked a dog! What a Horrid! 8:50
do you have a poblm about trvlers
no. Just with the way that horses are treated and what state they live in.
Look that the travelling man's game and no one will ever take That away from Travelling Man
and thereall informants apart from dat there ok
I have a problem with people too lazy to learn to spell!
U see them courty ones don't understand us travellers the brues go get a job and us traveller brues stay at home clean we no hoe to clean on like country people 😂
The horse nearly killed the fuckin dog bai 😂
He is one gas fella always was from his youngest days but was full of nature and you can't buy that
Draw reigns are so tight let your horses trot normally ! Richard horse has a completely dipped beck due to them not being nice to the horse, I know they live the horses but treat them nicely and not like toys
I used to live in spring lane but I moved out because what them nackers did to my home btw my dad still lives there
what happened?
They need feeding
William Price ...young and leggy, too young for work really, some look like weaners, yearlings.
No they don’t
Yes they do need feeding good job looking at that did you need help for that
@@Michael-Vibin no they are fine
Excellent Presentation of a Good Tradition that should be Respected and Encouraged,
I bet all of those horses isn't even a year old poor horse will be no good when it gets older😣😣😣
Do you know anything about horses There resilient
They look after their horses it's their way of life they don't just ruin them
Alot of these are trotting ponys. Not a very big breed
honestly those horses are too young to be trained that much they aren't developed enough ..and that chestnut at 11.25 is REALLY underweight. I have nothing against travelers but there is a lot wrong in this video.
Who the fuck are you to talk about are Waze Country boy
Very few women or girls seen there.
Lads are having some sport and it keeps them out of trouble but there should be somewhere for them to go and learn about horse welfare, feeding and worming etc
We have this person called a vet and we know about feed worming spring fever foot rot ,lock jaw, colic ,milk fever, ragwort
Great video these horses are very well looked after
No they're not
No horse should be raced on tarmac
This I just sad to see. So many uneducated people that are blatantly abusing horses for "tradition".
ALVA SOUTHWOOD NOBODY IS ABUSING ANY HORSES COMING FROM A WOMAN WHO THINKS ABOUT UNICORNS
Can’t understand a word
'top material this fella' - looks way to young to me to be trained for sulky.
You Eejit meant to be that small are younger men
Much cruelty occurs, selective filming. Not a mention about how they earn a living. Ethnic minority or simply stuck in a group from which it is hard to separate. The amount of abused and abandoned horses in Ireland tells its own story
Am romani this what you saying is rubbish up the indie mushkras from a brother from a different mother
The scourge of Britain, wherever they go they leave shit (literally), theirs a saying "do bears shit in the woods" yes but so do travelers.
Tony concrete I egree the travellers have to put up with some shit
Thier horses are underfed
Teresa Roberts Just leggy yearlings, too young.
Teresa Roberts no they not
Although I don’t agree with how the horses are treated a lot of the time or how young they are when they are broken I suppose if the horses didn’t like what they were doin they wouldn’t do it
All supermarkets ban them on first sight - they seem to lack the concept have to pay for goods. All have very sticky fingers and have no values.
True
Michael no
@@Michael-Vibin no gadji
This is disgusting these horses are in pain and are going way to fast on such a hard surface these horses are so underweight it’s horrible 🤮
No there not you idiot you don’t understand you would know beacuse ? The horse is not in pain Lordy you gorgers
The horses are trained to handle the weight if the horse did not want him on top of him it would kick him off Country boy
So What do you know about horses then
Ciara Goggins because I work with horses god sake you can literally see their ribs come back to me when you’ve actually learned something although it might take a while
@@leo9565 am roma and we are taught to ride as toddlers with my feet fastened underneath and my arms held wide and blindfold so yes I no a lot about them
ARE they Roma ? Tinkers? Asking ...
Hey..stick to those horses...they are not causing global warming like all the crazy cars and trucks spewing out fossil fueled gases. I went round NZ for 2 years with my wagon and Clydesdale mare in 1972..and started that way of life here....after vehicles and tractors took over farming.
The horses still look like baby's and they are making them pull a cart...wtf...we don't do that here in America
Teresa Roberts it’s not a brush thing believe me ! I didn’t even start my horse till it was 4 like most people I know 3 years at the earliest !
These are irish travallers they be dealing with horses before u cud suck a tit,there looked after better than humans
@Leona Bastet oh rite an wares your certifcate in horse expertise u fool,they dope professional horses to the eyeballs an if they lose a race put em down there an then,ware ur expertise on that,but u wana mouth about travellers who keep there horses better than ur mother kept you u fool,gway an talk sense boy
But you don't upgrade your security in schools
Teresa Roberts you do a lot worse have been to rodeo in America never again
Sorry but that farrier needs to get an apprenticeship as clearly that youngster he's shoeing isn't comfortable and he isn't the best or experienced in shoeing ☹️
Good video. The comments here r some crck the amount doses who haven’t a clue about a horse
I have never and will never have respect for any traveler who chooses to abuse an innocent animal
Alex Murphy 👍 these are PLASTIC IRISH ,,
Here sham there’s probably more non travellers that abuse horses than us
@@gerrykelly8820 they were there before you was
We treat our horses well we don't have sex with them
oh fuck no
Poor little horses!! They are way too young to be hsmmered around like that. They look skin and bone too. These tinkers are ignorant and cruel!!
You have horses do you
I see nothin wrong wi um so wat ever gorgie is saying there to young go and learn for ur self
This is horse abuse, poor horses
No it’s not
I agree...they should confiscate those horses
Great video should be enough for the anti travelers that talk sh.t about travelers not feeding and looking after our animals
L
Half of them are underweight!
If you can believe it..gypsies are often reported for abusing their horses. They think more of their horses than some house dwellers do of their own children..and treat them better too boot. The stables are cleaner than some houses I have been in..including mine. 😀😉
Uhh that horse at 13:17 looks lame and skinny
That's a shocking accent pal
Then hear the mug behind the camera sucking up to them as if they're something special.. I'd bet the same fellow wouldn't live with them for a month..
They need to banned from racing horses on the road.. They whip the horses to hard and drive them to fast it's cruelty to animals.. And this bastard behind the camera is only encouraging them.
There’s no skill in that shoeing it’s illegal
Thy should send them to school learn them to read
privet property would be a good start
You racist just because they are travellers means that they did not go to school I am a Traveler I go to school weirdo !!
@@Michael-Vibin are you a gone to bricks gypsy?
I’ll write this sentence for people who want to read this sentence properly!! 😁😁
They should send them to school , to teach them to read , ‘private property’. Would be a good start.
Think it’s you who should be learning to read and write properly 😘
Most of them are lame and in fed, poor things :|
Zara eq no they fine
Shut up country boy William I'm a traveller
