- Let me know if you like this concept! If so I'll buy a microphone etc for it so you can't hear him moving around so much 🙄 (and I'll hopefully get better at telling stories and talking in long format in-front of a camera and for the audio only listeners!! 😅)

Oh no, poor Pinot !! His tail definitely looks cut rather than chewed….I would be fuming 😤 . Hannah your horses are always in tip top condition and so well cared for, you shouldn’t have to defend yourself to anyone ! Loving having your vlogs again ❤️🥰
i saw your post on hhsc, i was so sad to see the comments because you were genuinely so concerned for your horses’ safety and people on there are ruthless and judgemental. you’re doing great with him hannah xx
I agree with a lot of the people here. He looks fine. He's not exactly fat, but when thoroughbreds lose muscle they just do look really underweight.
I love your honesty/transparency and I love this style of video!!I hate how some people are so rude and judgemental in our horsey world :(
I am so sorry about Pinot. His tail was cut-this happened to my friend’s top show horse. That was an accident with a camp kid with scissors got away and cut her horse’s tail by mistake.
The ruthless people are just want to be know it alls, proving that a little knowledge is a terrible thing. They don’t consider many factors. I’ve worked extensively with ottbs in my life and ones as big as Pinot will never be ‘beefy’ without work. They are just huge, need a ton of food and will still look lean. Though he looks beefy to me!
Hugs to you and well done in standing up for yourself!
Carole is probably the same lady that abused me, calling me cruel, for not putting a rug on my mare when it was 10 degrees 🙄 I went out to check her and she was TOASTY 😂 People are so judgemental! Aaargh. So irritating. I think someone cut his tail. It's STRAIGHT so a dead give away. Really creepy. Must be so stressful knowing someone can just walk in. 😵
Not only is it cut straight, Flume and Pinot are not close and on top of that it happened overnight, which is I think a big sign that someone cut it 😓
Edit: oh and there was no hair around the paddock as well
I love this concept! As a shift-worker I (and the dogs) appreciate the background noise and chatter of music and podcasts. I vibe with the casual-aussie conversations, makes it much less lonely.
You are such a strong character and I'm sorry you've experienced some speedbumps. Your resilience and flexibility is inspiring. Keen to see/hear more!
I saw that post on horse hub I was speechless lmao people are so mean on that page! they defs had the wrong idea you look after your horses better than most people in my opinion hahah
She really does care for her horses.
Above and beyond!
He doesn’t look thin at all he just doesn’t have as much muscle as a horse in work because he isn’t in work! Don’t feel like you have to justify it to them han, you know he is all good 😘
Hi tail looks very much like it was cut. So upsetting. I've had this happen to me, people coming on the property, finding old bread in the paddock etc. It's so upsetting. Your horses are CLEARLY well looked after, I love watching your videos for this reason.
First of all I love this!! I'm a huge podcast person so I would be thrilled if you made these into podcasts on Spotify or the like.
Forums can be brutal. I have a policy of never telling someone what to do, always saying what I would do or what I have done. And also only answering the question they asked about! You're doing a great job so screw Carol and her opinions.
Baby horses can be super sneaky when they chew tails! I have seen babies with older horses that HATE them and they still manage to find a way. They often can’t feel when their tail is being chewed so he might have been extra sneaky 🙈 haha
These are so entertaining can’t wait for more to come out!! You really have a way of talking for half an hour and making it entertaining and easy to listen to
Definitely scary thinking someone might have cut it off! One of our horses had there main cut once and now we have padlocks on all our gates ect bc people are sketchy
Can you do a video like this with all your horses, just talking about how you got them and what problems they have etc it’s interesting
I would love love love to see more of these on Spotify so I can listen when I ride 🤩
I had a similar situation happen to me with a horse the I was leasing, I avoid posting things like this on Facebook purely because the keyboard warriors take things out on context and make other people fell like shit when they truely have no idea about you or your horse.
Even tho we know we are doing our best and we take care of our horses it does make you feel bad and it’s just crap. People can be so nasty and at the end of the day you can’t let those things get to you and generally if I absolutely need advice I go to people I look up to ect like instructors because atleast those people know you take care of your horses and will give helpful advice.
Loved this little chit chat type video 😍
I've got a yearling colt in with a couple geldings. He has chewed their tails off. Neither of them looks like that. That honestly looks cut. If you found it with some longer, uneven strands and then evened it out yourself, it was probably chewed.. but to be that precise.. that's scissors/knife. He doesn't look underweight, just under muscled--for a show horse--which he isn't right now. Anyone saying otherwise needs to go outside and care for their horse instead of sitting on ass getting snarky online.
I think he looks great! People just want something to pick at, you can tell that you really care about your horses and do the best to look after them, don't take it to heart! Also this happened to my friends horses tail as well! huge chunk of it was gone and we never really figured out what happened to it...
I've known baby horses chew off tails before but never in one night (??) And never at such a consistent straight cut across either...I'd be thinking the same as you xx
It makes me so angry when I hear about people breaking in these horses at 18 months old. It's so fortunate he has found such a loving home.
How strange poor guy horse people can be such snobs you’re doing a great job. I’ve recently learned that burglars do strange things to properties to check and see if owners are gone or present before a break in. I had no idea.
Have you ever thought of someone cutting his tail to mark him for someone to steal him? I know it's kind of a dark subject but some people might do that
People think they know what they are talking about however what they don't know is that each horse is different and have a different body shape and have different needs. Obviously Pino is a retired lanky thoroughbred that loves his retired life and that being his with his size and shape that's just how he is. People should focus more on the idea rather than the hate and go by the theory if you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all. BTW love the chit chat idea very entertaining!😊
hes beautiful and looks very well looked after
My mare is on paddock rest and looks way more feral but still a pretty girl, your Pinot is cute. She also came to me on the truck with no tail and had no idea why, hers looked very uneven and obviously got stuck on something. It's crazy what people can do to others horses, it's a dark subject that should be brought to light.
So lucky he has such a wonderful home that takes care of him 💗
Yesss podcasts please!
Disclaimer: I have a little bit of unhealthy paranoia. I am convinced it was someone for some reason. Maybe someone had a use for it? Maybe some kind of social media hater? 🤷🏽♀️
Buy Hydrophane Cribox paste and put it in his tail, if it was Flume he won’t do it again!! We would do that in every single horses tail at the stud farm I worked on to prevent chewing. It also leaves a horrible spicy, burning residue if you touch it so would discourage people from cutting the tail if that was the cause
As someone who had a tail chewer (we had 23 horses, trying to figure out who the culprit was) that doesn't look chewed, but doesn't quite look cut.
Me side-eyeing way too many people keeping their horses too fat because they know perfectly well that an overweight horse will never receive the same scrutiny as one that is slightly light. People will eviscerate someone for keeping a horse unrugged in natural conditions and with friends, but not say a word about someone over-stalling, over-rugging, and depriving their horses of all the basics a horse actually needs, as long as it's fat and shiny. Our standards of what makes a happy and healthy horse have become so distorted. A lack of muscle is not a big deal. Slightly lighter condition is far better than the obesity many owners strive for. Mud doesn't hurt them.
For what it's worth I think he's about perfect weight too. He's not even light.
He looks beautiful. Most horses in my area are too fat. They get lush grass and not enough exercise. My gelding tends to be leaner as well, eating tons, in light work. It’s easier on the horse to be a bit slimmer than overweight. ❤️
Really enjoyed this format of video! People online fkn suck though oml
We both have big horses that were bought as projects and are now paddock ornaments.
Some years ago, a showie had her horse's tail cut. In that case, the thief had a really good pair of scissors and cut it clean off. She was given permission to use a false tail at Sydney Royal (back when that wasn't allowed).
I would have been massively creeped out if it happened to my horse.
I think I will call her Karen.
from what I can see and have seen from him he looks so much better then what he did look like, you've done a great job with him and I don't think people realise how hard it is to put weight on off the track horses, he looks so much better now, please dot let these trolls online tell you that he looks like shit when we all know you've done an amazing job. love stacie xox
some people are so horrible. the way she was like “for an old man” does she not realise how young Pinot is???
Hannah, not even worth the headache. She doesn't know what she is talking about, missing the entire picture. Your horses are living on a freaking vineyard LOL Sign me up!
Yes, buy a mic and make more chit chat videos :) Lots of love, Krissy
He literally looks fine. Horse people are seriously the meanest people, both in person and on the internet. Idk why people freak out when they see mud on a horse. They're not made out of tissue paper and sugar, a little mud won't hurt him! This whole trend where people treat their horses like fragile little things is super annoying. What's also annoying is all the people who over feed their horses and make them fat. I'd rather see a horse slightly (key word being slightly) under weight than over weight. Obviously both are bad, but being over weight is worse imo. I worked for a trainer for a long time and the amount of morbidly obese horses we got in for training was awful. My boss joked that he liked it because they got tired more easily so they wouldn't put up as much of a fight😂
Also IMO, his tail looks cut. I've seen plenty of chewed tails, and there is no way another horse that he doesn't let near him could do that over night. Best of luck from the US!
There was a lady at my old barn who had two horses whose tails had been cut one night before she moved to my previous barn. They both where friendly horses and would walk up to anyone in turnout so that is why theirs were taken most likely. People cut them for fake tails. This was in the US at least so I am not sure about other places. I would bet that happened if he is friendly in turnout.
This same thing happened to a young girl's pony at a performance stable I was agisting my horse at, full of beautiful high level dressage horses and one morning the pony was found with as little tail as your boy! NO traces of tail anywhere and was kept in an individual yard too. Had very blunt ends and looked hacked off by shears, the girl's father was convinced it was done by someone trespassing and that they got the wrong horse... which was a terrifying thought. Just so disrespectful, was so sorry to see the same may have been done to Pino
He looks like he belongs in one of those old thoroughbred paintings with his short tail! It does look like it got cut, but I've never seen a chewed tail before either. Patchy manes, however, those were abundant at my old barn. Too many flies combined with allergies caused many a mane rub on the fence...
People are ruthless and judgy online. They sit there behind their keyboard and live vicariously through you and your horsey life. They feel free to make negative, rude, ignorant comments about everything you do. Your horses' tail was probably cut off by some a-hole who wanted to sell it online. Yes, that actually happens. Or, more likely since it was only one horse out of a few, it was probably some jealous idiot who harmed your horse to spite you. You're doing well in your videos, don't give the trolls the satisfaction of a response! Block, ignore, delete!
Love this style of video! Thinking of you🤗
loved this!!
love this podcast!
You don't have to justify yourself to anyone about your horses people that follow you and support you know you look after your horse very very well. The people that have nothing nice to say and judge you when they no nothing about the situation (but think they no everything) probably sit there all day hating on everyone because it's the only way they can feel good about themselves. F#!K what people think as long as you know your doing the right thing then f#!k everyone else don't waste your time over people like that their not worth it. 😊x
You are right in what you say because only you and you alone know how your horse feels and reacts to certain things so only you have a right to criticise yourself do not listen to other people unless it is helpful criticism people in the equestrian world are just to brutal sometimes and jump in with both feet before thinking about what they are saying and about the people they are saying it to I think he looks great for a thoroughbred so thank you for being honest and I would get cameras on your property if you can because chopping any horses tail is not right especially if it not your horse if that is what happened
Horse people can be so rude. I've had people tell me that my horse had done a tendon, had a chest infection, pin worms etc etc from my insta stories. But in reality: fetlock swelling was actually windgalls (horse is 18 years old and used to jump 120 tracks so always has puffy fetlocks - also not at all lame, gets treated with pentosan and regular physio), chest infection was actually a cold that was ALREADY being monitored by my vet, pinworms was actually my horse having itch in summer (he's orange and super sensitive). It's really hurtful when you know the horse, you know the history and you're providing the best care possible. People see a photo, or literally a 10 second clip and suddenly become veterinarians, nutritionists, and animal scientists. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
I agree! I love horses and would love to learn how to work with them. The trouble is, people at my local barns are just obnoxious! I don't have the stomach to deal with it. It's a shame, because horses are not like that at all.
trolls, just ignore them- you know the truth xx
I’ve had a tail get chewed off in a straight line like that….possibly Flume?
It was probably a showy that over feeds their horses because that’s how they are supposed to look right? Seriously does my head in when people think fat is healthy. His a paddock horse that’s a tb and a big one at that. His condition is perfect for what he does. Horse people are the most opinionated people going around 🙄
Cattle and goats are pretty good at nibbling off tails. If your horse is pastured where they can reach your horse, they may be the culprits.
First off. That picture you posted of his tale, looked like he was resting his hind leg, so naturally it will look bad.
Second off. He is not even remotely undersweight from what i can see on this video, yes he lacks muscles, but like considering he isnt being ridden, its actually pretty well in the muscle department. Also how are you supposed to get muscles on him when it hurts him when training.
He looks great. His coat looks great and his condition is great. People have gotten so used to horses being to fat and taken its as the normal, but if you look at top horses in eventing you wont see the chunky horses that you see home in Caroles yard.
He looks great. I had the police and humane people after me because I had a yearling gaited, mustang, in a field of aged quarter horses. They were halter breds and chubby. Navada was tiny and straight from the BLM pens( Bureau of Land Management). He was very sick and took two years to fill out all he would. Later he was used at a festival to teach people about thin horses. It was discovered he was overweight and needed work to develop muscle. I had him 24 years. His last year he go fat!
Great video 😻 luv it
We’ve unfortunately all been there before in the horse world. 🙄
Despite Ms Karen Carol, you are doing a great job with him and he’s looking GOOD. 😌
My thoroughbred has just had the ligament snip due to kissing spine. It is so common with them, heartbreaking
I'm so scared my thoroughbred. I had no idea the chances of them having it was so high. He hasn't shown any of the signs Hannah mentioned but what was your girl like?
Dr. Pol had a good episode of a man who brought in his TB and was concerned cause he looked “underweight” The guy also only owned quarter horses. Dr. Pol was basically like, well duh. Some people just don’t know but that obviously doesn’t justify them to be hateful.
I bet flume the baby horse ate his tail.......And maybe he kicks flume because he is a tail stealer LOL
Think he want a hug :)
Not trying to make u worry, but normally when a youngster chews the tail…A-they usually won’t do it in one night and B- it’s generally very ragged with long strands and short chunks.
Someone I know his horses tail was cut/stolen maybe that happened
So annoyed for you, so hard not to take those comments to heart or to brush them off 🙄 He looks fabulous, shiny and happy and you're doing so well and don't need justification!!!!
that is NOT a skinny TB. People think if horses arent fat they're starved sometimes.
you should get a mic
Dont you want him to have a surgery for ks?
People should probably look at your profile before commenting 😂 all your horses are well looked after and he his in good condition considering his kissing spine and retired… he doesn’t look ribby what do they expect from a retired horse lol .. that page is stupid I was blocked for sticking up for a girl on it 😂 they all thrive off drama and being rude!
Do you still have Jericho
26 minutes in she explains where he is x
He is out on lease
First
Maybe someone stole his tale:(
Привет🌜👼🌛🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠💯🐎🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
7 isnt that old sucks hes lame and unsound kinda not worth it if unuseable , given tbs are really hard keepers seems like a lot of $ wasted for feeed etc
Why do people get so mad about mud tho
I liked this but next time maybe try to get to a point a lil quicker, it was a bit hard to stick it out ... but I am sorry about his tail, that's horrible!
