My husband was a trainer and farrier. He accepted two huge gorgeous quarter horses off of a racetrack for training. One black, one white. When each one was unloaded, they both immediate rared and started striking with their front feet. The owner said they didn’t want them back because they had hurt several people seriously. Training took much patience and time. To make a long story short, both ended up being the most wonderful and kind horses. After a year of me owning and riding the horse we decided he was ready to go to a new home. A potential buyer came by who had a small handicapped boy. He rolled to the black horse in his wheelchair, met the horse and immediately they emotionally connected. The horse moved around to the boy as if telling him to get on. The boy took the stirrup in his hands and pulled himself up to a standing position and he was helped on. After being led around for an hour, he was given the reins and the horse responded so sweetly. They bought the horse and the boy rode the horse in parades. It was magical.
It is rare I get nervous for your safety Steve, but each time those legs kicked out inside that small trailer space, I did hold my breath a bit. How Tanya does it seeing you put yourself in some dangerous positions like that, I don't know. She must have to tell herself, you are doing what you love and helping so many horses that it would be worse if you didn't. God bless you both and your fantastic Charlotte.
Yep that one was extra feisty but luckily looks like it was more just scared and used to getting out of things by jumping around than it was actually planning to cause injury. The problem is you don't know in advance plus it could still hurt someone by mistake.
The stories people write in their own heads about animals versus what is happening right in front of them is just astonishing. People keep giving affection and releasing animals for bad behavior unwittingly. While more folks like this keep you in business, its amazing to see the ones that pick up horsemanship from you and go on to become fairly proficient and their horses continue to improve and that brings the most joy. So many horses get a better life when more people learn horsemanship and can help the horses get through difficult times and on to better times.
Goodness Steve you must be totally knackered after some of these training sessions both physically and mentally. Also you must be pretty fit to do what you do. Hats off to you for your sheer dedication.
I hope the pooh pooh critics out there watch this. No bullying. No anger. Just technique and experience. So pleased that both horse and you were accident free and calm at the end of the video. Well done Steve.
This is true horsemanship. Time and patience. She was obviously scared of loading, and while I admit she was rather more adamant than most, I knew she'd eventually get it. You can't blame the mare for being scared, that injury must have hurt and she blamed the trailer. One of my horses wouldn't load. I don't know what his prior owners had done to make him afraid, but he was intelligent and willing, just...scared. It took some time, but I taught him the trailer is okay. I'd lead him up to it and encourage him to just stand. Then put one foot in the trailer. Let's back up and rest. Pets, praise, then let's try again. No pressure. Next time, two feet in, back up, let's rest, pets, praise. I'd watch his eyes an breathing, when he's calm, let's try again. Next time, two feet, back up, rest, praise, pets. Once he'd get all the way in, okay, let's go out. Over and over, time, gentle patience. Eventually he got to the point, okay, I can do this.
It really amazes me how much trouble and damage horses manage to do to themselves. But then again, getting locked in tiny closets is not something their wild ancestors had to deal with. ;-P
GOSH. WATCHING THIS, MUST ADMIT I GOT REALLY WORRIED FOR YOUR SAFETY - BUT ALL ENDED WELL, THANKS TO YOUR AMAZING HORSEMANSHIP, COURAGE AND KINDNESS. YET AGAIN STEVE CAME TO THE RESCUE. PLEASE STAY SAFE - ALWAYS.
They're generally a lot safer and better for the horses to be in. It takes a lot of effort, all the wobbling around in a trailer, these trailers require less of that
Some horses wpuld prefer to not be challenged ....she remembers that she has to use her brain when steve is on the line. Haaa. Looking forward to the full show!! Thisll make my fairly stressy trailer horse look easy. He used to be almost as bad and i would get so frusterated. Then i learned how, stopped taking it personal and he changed his mind. Its truly amazing what they know about us.
Yeah our rescue had one that didn't like the halter at first because he knew he'd probably have to do something challenging. The solution was to have him do only fun things on some of the halter sessions like walking and getting a bowl of hay. Pretty soon he was ok with the halter, knowing there was a chance something fun could happen. Luckily he was also a food hog so he's easy to bribe with just about any kind of food in a bowl. ;-) However I do also think they have a kind of joy and peace every time they really conquer one of their phobias. THey come back super happy and even sometimes ask to go back out again.
@@OnceUponaTimeline agree on that!!! My spooky mule is now the adrenaline junky. He loves facing his fears now that he's learned he can handle it. They are complex , emotional and thoughtful creatures.
@@jennyrosd2003 Yes I'm often surprised by horses since they don't think like humans or cats or dogs (although of course some elements of similarity exist), but it's hard to really know what is in their mind sometimes. Luckily thousands of years of trainers have figured out what works but I think we still guess to some extent on exactly the whys of it.
@@OnceUponaTimeline I have found both horses and canines can view our full persona that a mirror would not ever show. We must know ourselves to help train partnership relationships with both horses and canines. That a predator and prey animal can both know us so well no longer amazes me.
What a beautiful horse. Maybe I'm a bit old-fashioned but I always used to put poll guards on the headcollars of taller horses if they were a bit skittish in the box.
Steve just wanted to tell you, this world we live in needs a million more people just like you in it. Your am amazing person and what you are doing to help animals regain their trust with people it's amazing that you are able to do that. I'm an animal lover and think it's disgusting what some "people " will do to animals, it makes me sick to think some one would hurt animals the way they do. So PLEASE keep up the amazing work that you are doing to help these poor animals live the abuse free life they deserve. Thank you very much for being the person that you are and I hope you get a billion time more good karma back. Thank you soo much. 😀😀
She is such a friendly horse...only unsecure and anxious❤❤ The hard methods of this Horsewhisperer are not necessary at all! With more calm and concrete communication, this lovely horse would also learn all the wanted things!!!😢😢😢 A very bad show .....🙈🙈🙈
She seems to be mistrated by a man.. and now is frightened.. Thats a lot of trust toearn back for a traumatized Horse.. Good work here! Thx for helping her to gain that trust back!
THANK YOU STEVE & Tanya!!! I remember Mara’s past video. Took her a while to relax her to load in the trailer last time, but of course Steve’s patience guidance got her into the trailer. It’s most unfortunate that she had such a harmful incident that set her back. Beings that she is that size and her regular trailer is small. Perhaps the owner should add the LICK, while walking her in & out to keep her concentration centered so she does not go nosying about upon enter/exit (?) One more trailer set back, I doubt that big mare will load and/or will get more dangerous. Benevolent blessings 🍀
I think this is an example of why you don't want your horse to be TOO smart. This mare seems to have figured out a lot of ways to evade and intimidate humans, and predict what's coming in a way that is detrimental to getting her to do anything humans want her to do. In the wild she'd be a lead mare helping her herd avoid danger and predators and she'd be amazing at it. As a domesticated horse, she's a lot of trouble lol
They used to make helmets for horses, that would protect them when and if they threw there heads. It might be something you could look into to keep her from hurting her head again 😊 God bless
Definitely not the easiest one as you said … but you still managed to get a break through after a break down! Brilliant … looked like it was a difficult mare to contend with. She certainly had a good memory … how long was it since you had the first training session? Thanks for sharing! Happy Trails! 🙏🙌❤️🇨🇦✝️
I knew you had it, even I knew where is what was going he wasn't trying to kick you he was trying to kick the gate so you couldn't close it but you did it enough time and now he trusts you and he trusts the trailer again, I don't know if just anybody will be able to put him on a trailer but you sure can, great work😊
I have a quarter pony that behaves mostly the same way, will load, then flies off. She must have had a bad experience in her past that the trailer freaks her out too.
Her head is close to the roof of the trailer and she needs a poll protector when she travels. Hurting her head can be very dangerous for her. It also makes her more worried and even more likely to hurt herself by throwing her head. The poll protectors do help a lot.
Hello, this is a first time I’ve watched you. Well done, however when working with a side load trailer that has no intrinsic thought when it was built, I’m surprised you didn’t use a trailer that was a little more inviting, and didn’t leave the mare claustrophobic, and you, with no where to go.
I wish there was someone like you where I live in Denmark. I have a lovely horse, sweet and always trying his best. But He's terrified of cows and I don't know how to help him understand that they are not dangerous, without putting both of us in danger. (He bolts instead of taking my riding cues when he gets spooked). You are exceptional in your work with horses, always love to tune in and see what you do.
I see a mare who is very intelligent and likes to get her way. Such a magnificent animal. She reminds me of my current dog. A loving little fuzzball who does like to boss everyone around, wants what she wants, and is very dramatic. Though, sweet as can be … until she gets mad LoL
My judgement, a good natured horse, just stressed by a bad memory. Wanting to please but saying you'll have to prove to me it's okay. The little rears before going up is her saying I want to do it for you but help me trust it all the way. Those little rears say it all. A nice animal.
AND I dont blame her a bit, with all those pannels swinging all over. What brilliant horseman put a metal edged sharp corner on that left side?? Ramps are horrible, Trailer ramps hurt a lot of horses. They can and will walk in without the stupid ramp.
Goodmorning. Good work! Det kan bli lite bättre än det är en bra bild på mig när det gäller att sitta säkerhetsklassifierad med människors konstiga lån..Xo njuter när jag far illa..I am going for Caring loving.. speechless. Lol lol JN
No horse is bad its how people treat them and if they treat them bad with whips, hitting, abusing and neglect them that horse doesn't trust people so now you have to sit in the stall or round pen and sit there quietly and let the horse come to you and it won't take a day and you can use treats and hay, apples, carrots and if that horse wants it he or she will eventually has to trust you and this is how you bond and it could take a long time it depends on how much abuse that horse had in his or her past. This is a very good method to use some people want to rush things and you can't because the horse was damaged mentally be his or her past owner or owners, so no horse is bad its how their past owners treated them with abuse, if i was a horse and somebody abused i would not stick around i would try to jump a fence and run as fast as i can to get away from crazy people that abuse me. So if you get that kind of horse, remember what i wrote and follow that method and mark my words that horse will come around and bond with you only if you show love all the way and you cant use and forms of abuse, hitting,whipping, smacking hitting with the rains or even pulling the bit hard, or even kicking with your boots really really hard the sides of the horse that is all signs of abuse and the horse will not like you for doing any forms of any kind of abuse, so don't do it, if you want the horse to like and trust you. Very important. susanb6301@gmail.com
The worst often end up the best in the right hands. My best was the worst. When I met him only rising three at 16.2 had been backed early taken into a field where a combine scared the life out of him He was angry frightened - behaviour from one spectrum to another rearing bucking kicking striking . Nothing in our training would get past him. The answer was loneliness, overcoming fear. Being a heard animal I turned him out but became his only contact I did not try just fed and was his only company eventually he chose to make me his friend once that relationship established from then on he broke his heart to please. Lied with his head in my lap, would be upset if I would favour another on my yard before him. Let's just say he Ended up one of the top horses in eventing dressage show jumping. Sadly our relationship tragically cut short as he succumbed to advanced navicular to this day I have his saddle. He passed 40 years ago and will never be out of my heart. Never give up - for they are just as frustrated as you.
I think she's a bit of an ornery one with a bit of alpha and you are a big challenge to her top mare order❤ scary work in the trailer with this one. Lots of back talk. Ears not good. But she seems to have let go of her fear a bit to trust you to be her leader. ❤

What a great comment Cheri
Every kid needs a pony ,,😊❤🐎especially those that are challenged,,
hey can i talk to uou and ask some of your advice?

You're SO right!! Releasing after misbehavior creates a lot of dangerous horses!!
Gentle, skilled horsemanship won the day, great job Steve.
My goodness, that was one very determined mare! That one took all your skills.
the horse was scared not determined
Goodness Steve you must be totally knackered after some of these training sessions both physically and mentally. Also you must be pretty fit to do what you do. Hats off to you for your sheer dedication.
I hope the pooh pooh critics out there watch this. No bullying. No anger. Just technique and experience. So pleased that both horse and you were accident free and calm at the end of the video. Well done Steve.
My God she’s gorgeous
And spirited, a wonderful horse to be partnered with ⾺
This is true horsemanship. Time and patience. She was obviously scared of loading, and while I admit she was rather more adamant than most, I knew she'd eventually get it. You can't blame the mare for being scared, that injury must have hurt and she blamed the trailer.

I've never had Monty Robert's trailer loading method fail, but it can take a tremendous amount of time and patience.
Love Monty❤🐎❤
Well done my son. Poor darling, how awful for her to do that to herself. Prayers and positive vibes moving on from this. 🐴🙏👏🏻💝💝💝💝💝
It really amazes me how much trouble and damage horses manage to do to themselves. But then again, getting locked in tiny closets is not something their wild ancestors had to deal with. ;-P
Bravo Steve and Tanya. Even though I know you always succeed, I held my breath watching this one. So relieved you managed to stay safe.
I'm so glad that you didn't get injured. Definitely, do NOT try this at home.
Wow this that made me remember how big and dangerous horses are😮Steve done amazing job with this horse who was not falling for his charm
Wow that was a real handful!Thanfully with your excellent horsemanship skills you were able to help Mara & her owner.♥️♥️🌻🌻🍻🍷
WOW ! a tough one for sure but you did it again Steve. Looking forward to the full video. 🐎
GOSH. WATCHING THIS, MUST ADMIT I GOT REALLY WORRIED FOR YOUR SAFETY - BUT ALL ENDED WELL, THANKS TO YOUR AMAZING HORSEMANSHIP, COURAGE AND KINDNESS. YET AGAIN STEVE CAME TO THE RESCUE. PLEASE STAY SAFE - ALWAYS.
WOW! I’m glad you were there to help her over it.
This was a toughie Steve. And as usual your kind and quite amazing patience pays off. Incredible.
Steve, Tanya and Charlotte - wonderful as always ❤️🐴
Well done Steve.. that's a beautiful horse 🐴 you have a great talent as usual... love 💕 your videos...
She remembers you!!! Wow, such a gift❤
Those closed trailers are so scary for horses. I understand. I’d be claustrophobic about it, too.
They're generally a lot safer and better for the horses to be in. It takes a lot of effort, all the wobbling around in a trailer, these trailers require less of that

Should she not wear a poll cap to protect her? If she had been wearing one she might not be so bad. Given her history I would have bought one.
My horses all wear their leather, padded head protectors when they ship.
I thought the very same thing.
What a beautiful horse. Maybe I'm a bit old-fashioned but I always used to put poll guards on the headcollars of taller horses if they were a bit skittish in the box.
Well Steve you really are amazing. All done with patience and quality. Wonderful outcome. Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you Steve! Poor horse
That was a bit nerve wrecking at first😮.Amazing work as always Steve.❤🐎❤
Wow. Congratulations on getting her into the trailer. What a handful she was

Gorgeous horse

They still do.
You are a brilliant horse trainer great skills..the talent you have is rare.. I wish I had the talent you have...😊

I have a quarter pony that behaves mostly the same way, will load, then flies off. She must have had a bad experience in her past that the trailer freaks her out too.
Poll Guards can save a lot of pain - but they don't seem to be used much outside of racing yards &c.
Poor girl. She doesn’t like that trailer ramp. She is a real beauty, that’s for certain.
Her head is close to the roof of the trailer and she needs a poll protector when she travels. Hurting her head can be very dangerous for her. It also makes her more worried and even more likely to hurt herself by throwing her head. The poll protectors do help a lot.
I just about fainted from oxygen deficiency brought on by holding my breath. Talk about suspense. Alfred Hitchcock had nothing on this video.
She's a BIG mare! She needs to have a shipping poll protector in any trailer. Just her normal head position is to close to the trailer roof.
Hello, this is a first time I’ve watched you. Well done, however when working with a side load trailer that has no intrinsic thought when it was built, I’m surprised you didn’t use a trailer that was a little more inviting, and didn’t leave the mare claustrophobic, and you, with no where to go.
Another wonderful success🎉
OMG Steve you are superman! ❤
What a beautiful beast !
That was tough to watch. What was the reason you kept tapping her when in the box where she kept kicking when you did?
I wish there was someone like you where I live in Denmark. I have a lovely horse, sweet and always trying his best.

Steve has a video of working the horse backwards through a herd of goats that terrified the horse. Its only a short clip,not a training video.❤
Job well done👍
Короткие видео очень нравятся. Ваша работа с лошадьми чудесна. Спасибо.
Man ,you’ve got some balls!
I see a mare who is very intelligent and likes to get her way. Such a magnificent animal. She reminds me of my current dog. A loving little fuzzball who does like to boss everyone around, wants what she wants, and is very dramatic. Though, sweet as can be … until she gets mad LoL

And where r her treats for being as good baby 🙏
That horse is way to fat for the first thing and needs way more work . But people in the UK are lucky to have Steve to help out .
The horse isn't dangerous, humans are. She just wants to live her life without being a slave.
AND I dont blame her a bit, with all those pannels swinging all over. What brilliant horseman put a metal edged sharp corner on that left side?? Ramps are horrible, Trailer ramps hurt a lot of horses. They can and will walk in without the stupid ramp.
How long did it take?
Hooray she was just tricking ya
Cool horse trailer. Is that a typical design in England? Most of the ones I've seen in America are rear loading.
Goodmorning.

Breakdown becomes breakthru!!!❤😊
While they holding a whip in their hand, wondering why.
I heard from a horse trainer that disengaging constantly can injure a horses stifle. Is this your opinion?
Very smart mare.
It's not the horse that's dangerous. It's the incompetent people handling the horse.
Pobrecito y tambien se estresan estando enserrados eyos les gusta andar libres en el campo😢😢
What a gorgeous horse tho
The worst often end up the best in the right hands. My best was the worst. When I met him only rising three at 16.2 had been backed early taken into a field where a combine scared the life out of him He was angry frightened - behaviour from one spectrum to another rearing bucking kicking striking .
Nothing in our training would get past him. The answer was loneliness, overcoming fear. Being a heard animal
I turned him out but became his only contact I did not try just fed and was his only company eventually he chose to make me his friend once that relationship established from then on he broke his heart to please.
Lied with his head in my lap, would be upset if I would favour another on my yard before him.
Let's just say he Ended up one of the top horses in eventing dressage show jumping. Sadly our relationship tragically cut short as he succumbed to advanced navicular to this day I have his saddle. He passed 40 years ago and will never be out of my heart.
Never give up - for they are just as frustrated as you.
So I was brushing horses yesterday and I let them sniff the brush and main brush so they knew they had a choice
We had this behaviour in one of our horses and it turned out he had a brain tumour. He also bashed his head open.
Your lead was too long and you weren't there to bump her left that's why she turned to the right in the trailer both times.
Horses are MADE dangerous by humans. It is NEVER the horse's fault. It's the owner and or trainer.
Horses don't become dangerous unless they are mishandled. Or kept constantly stalled
Oh my word!
Is she a thoroughbred
Put a hat on the horse.
ugh. What a nightmare horse. She obviously got away with a lot before you worked with her.
I think she's a bit of an ornery one with a bit of alpha and you are a big challenge to her top mare order❤ scary work in the trailer with this one. Lots of back talk. Ears not good. But she seems to have let go of her fear a bit to trust you to be her leader. ❤
Bad day at the office?
If I had to guess I would say she was very badly treated and traumatized by a man or several men
What a stunning gorgeous mare! Whew! She's a big girl and I'm glad she's got you Steve. She was so afraid. 🙀❤❤❤
stay safe
