Thanks for watching. Have you wondered how to tie a rope halter on a horse? I remember doing it wrong so many times in the beginning. Once I had it straight in my head though I never had a problem.
Im a native Texan and have been around horses all my life. Your videos are very well done and i keep learning little things i didnt know before. Thanks much!
That was exactly what I needed to see, thank you 👍👍👍 I'm so glad you included the nostril depth and why the halter shouldn't be low. I did not know that, as an older and new rider. You explained everything perfectly. I will be trying the halter knot tmrw. Thank you, from a beginner 🙏🙏
I know this comment is several years past your original post but I wanted to say “Great video”!!! Love that you have addressed proper fit. I hope you don’t mind if I point out that rope halters are also fully adjustable. That green halter that you said was too big just needs to be adjusted. Since you have one that is already fitted to Spider in all ways but the crown being short, you have a marvelous template to work from!
At 60 yrs old I bought my last baby he is soon to be 2 yrs old. I'm going to use all your videos to start him properly. He is my 3rd baby. I don't know everything, and these videos will keep me on track with his training. Thank you so much I love everything about how you teach.
Absolutely love your videos. I am new to serious riding at 55 (started learning dressage last summer) Just purchased my first horse , a 9 year old dutch warmblood. He is settling in here in Maine very well after a transport from North Carolina. My original work was in a dressage centric barn with no natural horsemanship work. Now I am boarding in a barn that really emphasizes building a relationship thru ground work, natural horsemanship and lunging. This is so helpful as I also learn dressage with my gelding. I was only introduced to the amazing benefits of the rope halter when I came to my new barn. I love how your videos are building and emphasizing the new things my horse and I are learning together. Thankyou so much
You are such a lovely lady! Thank you for this great video! Spider is such a cutie pie! Yes I have been using rope halters since 2000 (wow did I say that? Time sure fly's when we are having fun!)
Terrific videos! At the age of 47 I retired from my former job and started doing what I've always wanted to do... work with horses. Now I'm 48 and a bit behind "schedule". Your videos are a perfect compliment to what I'm being taught. I specifically want to become the best I can with groundwork and identifying potential health issues. We have 13 horses where I work varying from a highly trained Lippizan, a retired Thoroughbred, a high strung Tennessee Walker, a few Quarter Horses and a Hanoverian who likes my singing. While I knew the proper way to tie a rope halter, I never paid enough attention to proper fit. I'll definitely be coming back regularly. Thank you!
This was a great refresher on how to properly tie the halter and placement so very important. Now I know what I need to correct with halter size. You have a new subscriber, Me. Take care and thank you again
Very good demonstration on how to make sure the halter isn't too big! Thank you very much for the demonstration, I really like your way of training with your horses.
Thank you for this very helpful video. I just purchased a horse who is well-trained, but needs acclimating to his new home. I, too, need re-acclimating to the world of horses after being away most of my adult life. Just subscribed and looking forward to more helpful tips.
Thank you for this video! Everything was so well explained, subscribed right away so I can see more of your knowledge and your lovely, visibly very well trained horse(s)😍
Great explanation, thank you! Obviously halter training comes first, but what age would you advise to start training with a rope halter? We have a yearling and don't want to rush her!

Well, I was doing it wrong. Thanks for correcting me. I was totally tying it above the loop not around it. Thanks!

Thank you 😊
This is so helpful! I like how you explain the why behind everything you do.
That was exactly what I needed to see, thank you 👍👍👍

You are welcome Dawn. Thank you for such a lovely comment 😊
Could you please make a video about working on getting them easier to catch in the field?
This is very good learning :) thank you for that, i will try that on my youngster :D
You are such a lovely lady! Thank you for this great video! Spider is such a cutie pie! Yes I have been using rope halters since 2000 (wow did I say that? Time sure fly's when we are having fun!)
Showed this very well, I’ve always tied them wrong, will have a practice.
Thank you 😊.

You're very welcome! Thank you for watching 🙂
Great video
Thank you for this! My mare gets impatient being tied and I have changed her to a rope halter from a Weber Breakaway one.
Glad it helped!
Thanks, as always, for the excellent instruction!
🙏🏻 😊
Love your training style, Josie!
Thank you Nancy 😊
Fair to say.... He is my Favorite 🥰
Fair to say ... you have good taste 😆

You're welcome

SUPER helpful! What a good boy letting you handle his nostril like that! Ill have to test Duke and see if he's so easy going!
I’m so glad it was helpful ... do you think Duke will have a problem with you handing his nostril? I bet he doesn’t. Come back and let me know 😊
Thankyou
Your welcome 🙂
His beard😂 this horse is such a character
He truly is Kings Mom831. 😁
If you go round the neck then over the nose you avoid the flicking over the head near the eye. Good demo though
Agree also better when handling young horses
I like. Many, many likes 😁
Thank you 😊
If it doesn’t fit right how do I get it to fit right?
Finally someone knows how a halter should fit…..
So much for “pony” 😂😂
😂😂
Rough and intrusive
