    I had some awful experiences back in the 80's as a 'working pupil' at a yard. I remember a young horse spooking backwards in a stable, and panicking himself into a sweat, simply shaking and pulling backwards swinging his quarters for what seemed like ages. The same horse later bolted as a result of insensitive 'lungeing' - he was so scared - and gallopped some five miles. I've seen horses beaten with broom handles, and have ropes tied round their loins to make them buck themselves into submission. Needless to say, I gave up on ideas being an equine professional. It seemed that people used horses as an outlet for their sadism. Thank you Warwick, for your wisdom and learning.

      I wish this kind of domination treatment and abuse of horses had fallen by the wayside. While it is better in the U.S. thanks to people like Warwick, Linda Tellington Jones, and earlier, Tom Dorrance, Ray Hunt, Buck Brennaman and John Richard Young. But there is still a lot of rough handling and “breaking” of horses going on out there. So many horses didn’t have the right chance from the beginning, as many horses are still started by bucking out with a saddle tightened on their backs and they buck to exhaustion. Many still think that after the horse stops bucking, their spirit is simmered down and the desire to buck has magically disappeared. However, a high percentage of those horses were taught to relate the saddle to bucking right at that point, as the horse will not remain exhausted forever. I explain to people that the horse relates this to being attacked on the back and stomach, areas where it is impossible for them to see unless they can turn their heads back to see. But still that would not likely help, as the horse thinks it is being attacked by a pack of dogs or a mountain lion. That is how they experience it. For 45 years I have understood that we get better long term horse partners when we make training easy for them, break lessons down to what they can master without undue stress, and try not to scare them into a panic. Tying and early saddling are two stages that can set a horse up for becoming a serious problem horse down the road, and there are so many of them. It can take 100 hours to retrain some horses, and some can’t be made trustworthy for riding. I wish people understood that horses have far better memories than people, especially for what has seriously scared or hurt them. To learn anything good they must be in the learning zone, neither too nervous nor too tired and exhausted. They need to be attentive, relatively calm and curious. Some trainers don’t believe in praising a horse - they will say that the horse is being rewarded when the trainer is not on their case. I still see a lot of this going on in the horse world, to the point that it is hard to find a trainer one can trust. If there is time to do it over, there is time to do it right.

      G NP - Wow. Edit part * First, I meant to start off with: I am so sorry you suffered those injuries & are better now. *
      So glad for you & your horse that you found Warwick's site. Hopefully you can watch a video before every re-training session. I think Warwick's videos, esp. from last 4 years or so are so dang smart, so insightful. The keys he stresses are: taking as much time as your horse needs, have patience, never display anger when training - if s/he does something wrong, just go back to the step before when s/he did it correctly & start from there & "work w/ the horse you have that day. It may not be the horse you worked with yesterday." Etc, etc. Good training takes a looong time - but done correctly, you will end up with a calm, centered horse who will be your buddy for life! PS: give your horse 2 days off per week & mix up your schooling so your horse doesn't get bored. My favorite for bonding - after a good ride or training session, take your horse for a walk (halter/ leadrope) to an area with great grass that he doesn't have access to - as a reward! No agenda, just a treat & practice matching steps w/ your horse! So happy for you.

      I noticed the pad and loved it too. But I hate the saddle itself. I will never get used to how huge, heavy, bulky, hot, and innefficient the western saddles are! And the horses hate them too.
      I prefer bareback, but I'm about 112 pounds. I know a horse can carry a bad rider or a big guy much more comfortably when the weight is spread over a saddle. But for krisake, why add another 40 pounds with a huge saddle? They're old fashioned, and IMHO they're dumb. Even the design of the individual parts is dumb. Like the horn, cantle, stirrups, and girth or girths.
      It's time to discard them except the places where it's really needed, if there even are any of those in existence anymore. I doubt there are any working riders on ranches, camping out overnight, except maybe by choice. And barrel racing and ALL the rodeo events are cruel anyway!
      I'm not saying there is no cruelty in English, because there definately is, especially in racing, where you find the smallest saddles of them all. And I'm very happy that the Western and English traditions are melding more all the time. They both have aspects which are better than the other. I'm only saying that the huge, heavy, hot, badly designed Western saddles need to go.

      Except that it doesn't protect you from covid.. the health officials lied. It's only good to stop messy sneezes or coughs.. not small viral particles. Being out in the sun and wind is not going to expose you to covid or the flu.. or even a cold. The studies were done but not used to follow the science.
      But you are correct in that one doesn't need to be triggered and go off on people for their choices. One can educate others, but only if they are open to being educated. I think most everyone here is. We tend to be very conscious of wanting a better way to be with our horses, other pets and for the most part, people in general.

      Not to mention how it helps with wildfire smoke and dust! I wear mine when alone outside mucking stalls, cleaning my coop because I have asthma and it helps immensely to keep dust, smoke and particulate out of my lungs and sinuses. Now when I do my neti pot at the end of a day, it’s clear and not chunks of mud. I’m also not coughing all day after being in a dusty arena. I’ve noticed a lot of the trainers are coughing less the last year too. There have been studies demonstrating the effects of dust on persons in the horse industry and it causing recurrent lung infections. A little cloth mask seems preferable to me.

    Absolutely. My rescue horse Ollie goes BALLISTIC when tied up. So I throw his leadrope over the fence and say "consider yourself tied up."
    If he pulls away that's fine.
    I call him back. I respect his opinion fully.
    I would love to ride Ollie but it depends on his cooperation.
    I am not much of a rider and my sense of balance is not good.
    Therefore he will have to look after me, which is impossible as long as he is panicky and fearful.
    Today his saddle arrived in the post and I asked him whether it is okay to put on.
    He sniffed it and flicked his ears forward.
    Saddle fits perfectly I think, and he was not bothered by it at all, although I am still not allowed to reach under his belly and fasten the girth.
    No problem, I have got all the time he wants.
    Thank you for your great help for my little horse, Warwick Schiller!

    Something DEFINITELY wanted me to see this today. I just got my horse back after not owning him for several years (long story) and Saturday night we had our first ride back together after getting his health back in order. While he was AMAZING in the cross ties for everything before the ride, was amazing under saddle, and was amazing un saddling...someone came around the corner behind him with a wheel barrow and he set back, breaking the cross ties. He is physically ok, but he has not done that in in a very very long time. This episode reminded me that I need to work on some things with him again and go back to square one.

The fact that every horse he trains or rides is so chill & totally wants to be with or near Warwick speaks volumes. I always cringe & get heartbroken when I see a horse disdain its owner. That's a big tell.

      Hello neighbor. 🇩🇰
      The extra rope works as lead rope if you need it, also as a ground tie if you’ve learned your horse how it works. In case you need to, you can tie your horse with it but wouldn’t recommend it unless it’s a safe environment.

    There seems to be a big divergence between practice in the US and U.K. in tying up in the U.K. we usually put a piece of string between the lead rope and the mounting point that is an easy point of failure if the horse spooks. The videos from the US I have seen mostly seem to say tie the lead rope directly to something that’s rock solid. In either case I think your recommendations would do well to be followed though.

    • @victoriawhite3662
      @victoriawhite3662 3 роки тому +3

      A lot of us in the US do that too, it’s for safety.
      But it should only be done after a horse does know how to tie and not panic, that the way to safety is to give to that pressure and come forward.
      If you just use the string method as restraint from the beginning, they learn to throw themselves backwards to break things and relieve the pressure that way.
      Just a note to someone who may be trying it for the first time👍

    • @pamelapeterson2987

      Yes, most everyone I know uses a string or thin plastic swift tie to tie to. I like to use the blocker tie rings at home and for horses tied to the trailer when away. The blocker tie rings are safer in that the horse is not likely to get loose in a pull back situation.

Such a stupid, out-dated rule that is so obviously manmade & nonsensical. I ♥️ that when he takes a break to talk to us - he lets his horse have a wee snack. Back in the day, if I had let a horse I was riding graze 😱😱people probably would have accused me of not having my horse under control! How draconian.

    Its unfortunate the number of horses you buy who come with tying up issues. If only we all had our horses since birth, we could make sure they learned without trauma. At nearly every horse event I've been to, someone's horse pulls back while tied to a float. I've had 2 horses in my life who were always capable of panicking suddenly and pulling back. They would be ok about 80% of the time, but there was always that unpredictable moment they'd flip out. So we just taught them to ground tie (lead rope dropped)

I'm considering getting a 1 year old as my next horse to try and avoid that and just spend the years to get them trained properly and fully grown with me. Even then it's still no guarantee, they've still had a year potentially in the wrong hands or just 1 or 2 mistakes that could take so long to correct. Sorry for the long reply to just say I agree but as you can see it has been a massive frustration for me recently 😂

      I do like to use tying for a morning or afternoon to teach patience. But only with horses who have accepted tying, and there are so many steps leading up to that that could take months. And I ALWAYS tie them with friends, it really reduces any chance of a panic response in case of the unexpected, or if they test the rope from boredom. And of course don’t leave them completely unattended.

    Adopted a horse many years ago that could not be tied without pulling back. He was fourteen at the time. As would be expected, he also had a lot of issues with giving to pressure. His pulling back was really scary. Even though I worked with him on giving to pressure with the halter and he became very light and responsive, and then also with the same ideas with the bridle, I have never had the courage to tie him for fear that he would pull back and really injure himself. He does ground tie. I've heard that pulling back is one of the more challenging issues with horses and very difficult to get a horse over. Wondering if anyone has had success with "curing" an older horse of a pull back issue.

      It's called opposition reflex. And like most every thing we ask of a horse, we are asking them to go against their very survival instincts. And if trauma is involved, as it nearly always is, it can be extremely hard to work through. There is another man, his teachings are very much like Warwick's. He just doesn't have as polite of people skills as Warwick does hehe. He does have a UA-cam channel, but he also has a website with hundreds of pages of info. I do recall an entire page dedicated to opposition reflex. I have no idea if it'll help. And I'm certainly NOT saying he's better than Warwick.

      A lot of Buckskin coloured horses (This one is a quarter horse) can be found to have 'guard hairs' or frosting along the top of the mane and sometimes top of the tails too. The difference between a buckskin (Or even a bay horse) with and with out 'guard hairs' is generally a chestnut or palomino parent (So a red gene) diluted by the crème gene. Changing red/chestnut to white like in palominos.

Red/chestnut hair + crème dilution= white hair.

    Just don't tie your horse perfectly tied up when you do it the first time ... If you like lay the rope over the post or something and he walks away or something then he is not ready to be tied up. Go through the basics to stand still and try again. Only tie up when you know the horse is ready.

    For the people who don't want to wear a mask - for whatever reason, I always say this: "So, you don't like wearing a mask? Wow, you're really going to hate wearing a ventiator!" 😉 Great video Warwick, such crucial advice, yet most people still do that backwards - tie up 1st & then throw new things at their poor horse. I did everything except Farrier, while he was loose in his stall. Plus, if riding that day - grooming, tacking up, etc., can give you a really good idea about where your horse is 'mentally' that day. Your statement & video about "Work with the horse you have today. It might not be the horse you had yesterday" is just etched in my brain. We know that, but somehow hearing you say it out loud really brought home the significance of that, so THANK YOU so very much. I have quoted & attributed it to you on other horse sites, as well as suggesting to watch your training videos. You're doing SO much goid for horses & humans, alike. I hope you "feel the love" & appreciation. BTW - I kept getting distracted by the horse you were on - he's absolutely stunning! ♥️🐴 Love, love, that mane!

      Only masks that prevent the contraction of any disease are a N95 fit or higher mask. The general rule is if you can smell while wearing the mask, it isn't stopping the particles that carry disease, as the are smaller than thise carrying odors. Your "science" is wrong. All those surgical masks you see people wearing do nothing to keep you safe. Sorry you're so gullible and just believe what you see on TV.

      Is sad that facts, like that covid carries significant risk, mostly to our elders, icu capacity and to health care workers' health and sanity, have become "political". Covid doesn't care how ppl voted. I am getting chemo right now. I worried the hospital won't be able to give me the best care when I have a bad reaction or that I will catch covid in the ER. I wished ppl would be willing to do something small like wear a mask to help protect ppl like me. Thankfully I am now fully vaccinated, but it was scary for me and I wished that it hadn't become a proof of loyalty to a political figure to be careless with covid. It didn't have to be that way.
