55 years of my life have included Arabs - No other horse has the sensitivity, brains and ability to bond with his human like the arab does.
True
I have 5 they r very nices.
I think that goes to Arabian people as well 😂🤣
A camel does . But he isn’t a horse
Maybe u should meet a kathiawari horse breed a little bit like arabian but more sensitive and expressive but have rare ear genetic traits that make ears curved .
Thank you so much for this video. 80 percent of horse trainers don't have a clue about Arabs. I was told to move the horse until he tires. LOL. Works real well with an endurance bred Arab. I finally gave up on all the training videos and just trained the horse. I started watching the horse and learning from her. She went from being crazy because my methods were wrong for that breed, to being an incredible horse. I could work her on cattle like a border collie. I could be on my 4-wheeler and point and she would go gather the cows I was pointing to. Taught her clicker training and she'd retrieve her bridle. She's a truly great horse and all because I started training the horse in front of me and learning from her.
Congratulations! So delightful to hear someone who followed their own gut instincts about what that horse needed. Always a student of the horse in front of me. Blessed be.
I love that .
They are the most loyal and eager horse I've ever had the pleasure to train.
They are extremely intelligent, and they need a lot more contact than a lot of horses get today. The Bedouins would even keep them in their tents with the family; they're not meant to be without you the majority of the time like they are at, say, boarding stables. They want someone to attach to, and absolutely require a solid, levelheaded leader, but they can be amazing when worked with properly.
That's true, that's their heritage and it's in their nature.
My Arab is literally the best horse I've ever had. Love him to pieces and have always loved the breed. Wouldn't choose any other breed over them.

They really are the best haha. Quite a hassle though, I know my filly is too smart for me to handle at times. When she was 8 months old she learned how to unhook her own leadrope and got loose on me one day!
Trust me he loves you more than you can imagine.
those hotbloods are wild af to ride tho!!
like sittin on a rcket. My horse (Revilion) is a stud and iliterally have to hold himback whileim on him. hes alwayspeda to the metal, i love it
I have owned, ridden and shown Arabians for over 17 years. They are definitely not crazy. A beautiful breed. They are just as trainable and willing as any breed. There are a lot of misconceptions out there about Arabians. Most of which are completely untrue.

One of the easiest horses I have trained was a twenty year old arabian named Byron. He was sensitive enough to be extremely soft but smart enough to be trusting. I have never owned an arab but he definitely taught me that they are capable and willing animals with a lot of personality.
They are a bit like mules...have a bad reputation mainly because they have a tendency to be more intelligent than the people who own them and call them either crazy or stupid
My two favorite breeds along with mustangs of course! I like there wary nature
mulas are some of my ranching buddies favrite mounts for the rocky hills.
very smart and sure footed, plus they are so gangster they say "fuck shoes"
my friend is always crackin wise about his "huge white spotted ass"
Thank you
Nothing more stupid than you bastard
@@AHMED-iy5sg Their temprement is def not for people who dont have patience haha. But they are good race horses. I think horses that "Atleast from my knowledge has best temprement is fjord horses, also good work horses.
arabian people used to treat their horses as a treasures
Yeah, they wrote a lot of poems about them. I know the Arabs have a saying, "The breeze of heaven blows between a horse's ears"... or something along that line.
Norm Kid goodness tied to forelocks of horses
Definitely treasures. But then, I tend to think horses are treasures period. :D
They are Daughters of The Wind .
look at tartarian golden horde mounted knights. pretty sure this is where the "unicorn" and dragon myths came from
the horsed are fully blanketed head to hoof, with shields on the face, and their bangs(?) of the mane tied in a"ponytail" that sticks straight up
but yes, only the best of the horses were bred. the kingfhorses, thearabian
Most definitely NOT crazy. Amazingly intelligent, very quick to learn and then very quick to find ways for not having to do things when asked. As a handler and rider you need to be as aware and intelligent as they are to get the best from them and when you do - WOW - you won't ever want to ride anything less again.
Love it.
I've owned Arabs for 60 years now, and they are always willing to do what you ask. Not lazy or obstinate. Easy to train unless you're a bully.
I was a teenager racing barrels on a polish mare that had only been a trail horse. She loved to run soo much, her trot was terrible and rough tho it was beautiful to watch. We smoked every expensive quarter horse or other trained barrels horses. We beat them everytime. And she was never like the other horses pacing and trotting in place at the gate.
She was a good horse, very independent and smart and sassy. I love that about them I could just watch them run in a field for the rest of my life and be happy.
Thanks for this video. I always had my heart set on owning an Arabian horse. A well-known dressage teacher in the Uk told me not to bother, that they are crazy, you cannot do a thing with them. He ended up getting me an Andalusian. Great horse, but my heart is still set on an Arab. Now I see you know a lot more than he did :)
The softer my cues are the better my arabian responds. He follows my around like a puppy while I work but expects me to stop and give him some attention from time to time. He is always eager to go out and do something. He's sure every trail will be a great adventure where he will get to see all sorts of interesting things. The arena? Great place. He's sure he can excel at any athletic feat or obstacle I present for him and it will be fun. No other horse breed is as keen on relationship or is as eager to participate as a partner with a human as an arabian. It's something that has been bred into them for thousands of years. If you are looking for a real partner they have no equal. Not even close.
I know this is such an old video but I just had to stop and give a like and say what amazing animals Arabians are. We wouldn't have a lot of breeds today if it weren't for Arabians, they are a very old breed. As said in the video very sensitive, they were bred to be very close to the people who worked with them. Before I was born, my mother used to work with and breed Arabian horses. Now, my first horse is an Arabian mix who was a rescue. The woman who had her before me, who could not keep her as she was moving out of state and not in good enough health to really ride, got her from the pound and took very good care of her but only rode her once in the year and a half she owned her. She is so spoiled to not wanting to take the saddle, but very smart and not a flighty horse at all. Has not offered to kick, bite nor attempt to dislodge me from the saddle even though I know she'd rather be back in her old field being asked to do nothing. 😂 When handled with respect and good leadership they are a very versatile breed.
I grew up with QH's then went to TB's and TB crosses as I got older..now in my 50's an arab/saddlebred mare (abused mentally and emotionally) came into my life. She was such a wreck I couldn't even brush her, she was very dangerous. She was also a severe bitter. Never having this breed before I instinctively knew I had to approach her much differently. Today she is the best horse I ever had. She has taught me... yes me, a lot. She learns tricks, well I think she teaches me the tricks she knows.We can communicate telepathically, I'm sure of it. I love that she is super sensitive. She is my best friend.
No there not u just have no fucking idea about them
K Mac lmao re read it. Its a muslim joke dude
Denice Garrou
🌷💞😁😘 they do communicate telepathically!!! Without a doubt!
i'm a arab and in our history the man always treats his horse like a part of him people went to war beceause someone killed their horse. in arabs history there was a famous warrior that never lost a battle in his life he was feared by romans persians and abyssinias he had a female horse named Elnaama he wrote poems about her and she was his horse in battle even though he had hundreds of other horses his foe had a horse that was special to him too the horse name was Elmochahar the two of them were arab turants means no one could stand against them in battle they were very strong and in the end the owner of Elnaama killed the owner of Elmochahar and the horse went to his nephew's palace and as soon as she mounted him he took her stright to her uncles's body and the horse wouldn't let anybody else ride him but her. there are many stories about horses in our culture and we always treated them with respecte and honor as they are the arabs closest companian.
I had an arabian stallion named Mio El Toro, Toro for short, and a mare named Alcala. Alcala was special because as a little filly she was bottle fed, since her mother rejected her. As she grew older 14 years old, I decided to breed her with my stallion to get an offspring. She deserved that, because she was a great extra mom to other mare's foals. She played with them like they where her own foals. So I knew she loved foals and she deserved to become a mother too. She was an absolutely AMAZING mother. My guess is, she did not want her filly to experience the same abandonment like she did as a foal. I named the filly Torina It was really a joy to see the love she had for her daughter. She was SUCH a fantastic mom. I was very close to my mare and stallion. As Alcala got older she started getting symptoms of hey allergy and asthma. I had to let the hey soak in water before even giving it to her. She also got very easily exhausted when working out, because of it! I wanted to ride carefully, but the poor mare just wanted to please me. She knew I liked to ride fast and also get a proper workout. So in the end I gave up riding her and let her retire. I remember one particular day when i went to the mare barn to give hey to the mares . Torina gave me a powerful bite on my boob. I gave her a a strict scold and went to have a serious discussion with my stallion about his daughters bad manners. A month later when walking next to the pasture where the mares where to reach Toro's pasture which was next to theirs, to refill his water, Torina saw me and started to follow me with her ears down. She was ready to bite me again to show her dominance. But Toro, her father saw this what she was about to do, and he got literally FURIOUS! I have never seen my stallion that pissed off before! He snorted stomped with his front hoof, reared and stomped his front hoof again and snorted furiously as a warning to his daughter. But she did not give a crap about dad's warning and when she was close enough he bend his head over the fence and gave her a powerful bite on her bum. She screamed and rant to her mother for comfort. But her mother did not give her any sympathy for her bad behavior! After Toro gave Torina a powerful bite on her bum he came walking to me to see so i was ok, snorted softly and lovingly and put his head on my shoulder to give me a hug, to tell me "Do not worry mom, you are ok, she wont do it again" I hugged my stallion and gave him a loving kiss on his muzzle. And believe it or not, but Torina did not try to bite me again after that incident! Anyone who thinks arabian horses are crazy can not bee in their right mind. They are the most loyal and smartest horse breed I have ever seen. And I have been around many different horse breeds. I would NOT choose any other breed before an Arabian horse! I love this breed to bits... I too had a telepathic connection to my horses as well...Not so much Torina, but Toro and Alcala...
In high school I had an Arabian stallion. He had to be weaned very early and I cherish the memories of running next to him leading by his halter everyday. He was beautiful, affectionate and very smart.
I had one too. Best friend ever. He always had my back too.
People I know who don't like Arabs, tend to not like horses, they really don't. Their idea of a perfect horse is one that doesn't think. We've had 8 pure bred Arabs and two half Arabs. No meanness, no bad behavior. When they were young, we made our biggest investment in their training because 1200 pounds of pissed off at the end of a lead rope is exactly what you don't want. It's hard, the young ones can be way more dangerous than adults. We taught them manners and respect and all the things they had to know (loading for one). We finally found an excellent trainer (we went through a bad one - we didn't know better). She is fair and that's all I've ever thought our horses wanted - to be treated fairly with consistency and kindness.

My Arabian is crazy smart, very sensitive, affectionate and funny. I really do love that horse. He's great.
I love Arabian wicked smart and willing to learn
I adore my little rescue Arab..He was badly abused before I got him and had 13 owners in 9 years and was classed as a very difficult horse. He wasn't..he was just frightened of people (understandably) and would not allow himself to be caught.. I understand him and we have a lovely bond. He is gentle..highly sensitive..intelligent..quick to learn, polite and loyal :)
mo neill That's sad. I'm glad he's got a good home now.
I have two Arabians.I do Parelli Natural Horsemanship with them.My grandma & grandpa used to raise arabians.They are a wonderful breed!!!
+Megan Wingate very cool
He's beautiful! Arabians are my favourites, I appreciate their sensitivity and intelligence :)
I am so glad you made this video. I ride an Arab at a typical dude ranch and people are always making stupid remarks about my horse.
Hi am from Saudi Arabia and I have Arabian horses they are very easy to train and clam so yea
Arabians have character. Treat them like family and they will be your best friend until the end and go through fire for you. Treat them disrespectful and you can say byebye to their cooperation. Love Arabians, most loyal and elegant breed there is !
literally will run full speed into a tree if they trust you.
ppl are just assholes and forgot we need nature in our life.
thes HOt blooded horses can sense bad vibes from a mile away(literally lol)

My mare still had love and trust towards people, even after the abuse by the stable owner at the stable i rented a place for her, before i found out about the abuse and changed stable, until we had our own place. If you ask me, she trusted people perhaps a little to much. How ever i think the reason to that probably is for the fact that she was bottle fed as a little filly, as well as being to kindhearted. She was truly a very special mare indeed. She passed away at the age of 23. And I miss her to bits...
My lifelong AQHA horse husband had a stroke when I brought home my first Arab. I think there was conversation about not keeping it in HIS barn to which I replied no problem it was going in my barn. Now he loves and wants his own Arab. He is in his late 70's and got hung up in the saddle. Little girl stood there with him trying to figure things out. Finally she went to her knees allowing him to free his foot. Love her.
I have three and they are super smart and willing. All three of these horses were given to me as they were 'problem' horses, they are my best buddies.
And needless to say, Warwick, watching your videos ALWAYS gives me new, kind, intelligent ways to approach them. (And my Mustang)
I appreciate your wisdom and the generosity of sharing your knowledge. Bless you!
my arab gelding was smart and funny he had a great personality....i could ask anything of him and he would do it... he was gentle and calm if a child was on his back or full of life if i just wanted to go
Been riding my first Arabian, named Peaches..she was left out in pasture but we are giving
her a "tune up" and she is responding well..!
One of my favorite horses was an arabian. He always put his head up when I went to halter him. Found out a little later that his previous owner punched him in the face everytime he didn't take his meds. Then on I would offer him the halter but give him the option if he wanted it on. First time I did that he refused 5 times, then put his head in himself. All the next times he needed one moment to refuse then put his nose in. Since then he always looked to me whenever I was around. Man I miss that sweet boy. I was a volunteer so he was never mine, but I so wished I could take him home.
Are Arabians crazy? I am completely comfortable with small children running in to visit with my Arabian stallion even if unsupervised because he is comfortable with it and is always aware of where that child is. Can you say the same for your stallion? Or even your gelding?
When you say "look like a Quarter Horse," do you actually mean "looks content and relaxed?"
Definitely not crazy. Alot of handlers encourage high antics to display their attributes and spirit, but they don't behave like that normally. At least I've not known them to.
Arabian and saddlebreds both seem to be very people oriented and arabians are sensitive but i also think that and same for thoroughbreds i think thats what makes them such wonderful partners.
I love all horses and started with quarter horses and love them. I fell in love with Arabs natural beauty and got one. I absolutely love them ! So sensitive and loving. I never had any trouble with them.
My friend who raised and would show her Overo paint horses said my Reg. Arab was crazy and she was going to tell me to move him until she figured out how to connect with him. Then she said he was one of the best horses she ever worked with. Maybe because the energy level of her Paints and my Arab were at different ends of the spectrum!!!
I am currently working with a kill pen rescue that is 1/2 Arab, he's kind and smart, but reactive...very different than my laid back QH...I just subscribed to your online program specifically due to this video...thank you WS!
Good luck with her.
@@WarwickSchiller Thank you! I believe your program is going to help us immensely!
Omfg, I already thought you were a good trainer but you just sealed the deal with this video. I own 4 Arabians and the first thing most people say/think when they hear me say "I own arabians" is "Arabs? Why? Aren't those crazy/mean/flighty?!" No, they're just sensitive. I love you.
they are all of those things, but only with ppl thatare assholes. like you said, very sensitive.
can judge a man by his vibes. lack of purity means a sketvhed out arabian
No they're not crazy. Smart and spirited but not crazy. Plus you hafta take in individual personality and how they've been treated by people.
I actually hear alot of people say arabs are crazy, and i ride a school horse that is an arab,and he is actually one of the nicest horses ive ever met, even though hes bolted with me two times
People are crazy and they do not know about horses they think they do but they
Don't Arabians are great horses with a longer history than any other breed 3.000 years plus!!!..inteligente,loyal,
Real athletes mean to be outside not in
Prison stall!!! If they keep you 24/365 on a stall any one goes crazy!!!!
I've shocked people when they realize that my horse is an Arabian.
I've barely done anything with her, let alone ride for the last 4 years due to taking care of first my Dad, then my husband. They're both gone now and I've started to ride again.
In spite of that, I've encountered very few problems with her under saddle. She's quickly becoming the horse I remember.
i’ve been working with a mustang who has arabian in him, and he is awesome. i enjoy the wanting to learn aspect and the curiosity he has. he isn’t broke yet but he’s definitely learning quick and on his way to being broken in
Loved that horse.. "I can talk for half an hour to you guys and.." Big yawn from the horse.lol
Elsie Ptacek
I know right!! He's like, I'm getting bored here, already. Let's do something fun...
@@seasands9644 Yawning does not mean, in many animals, what you think.
Absolutely not...they are wonderful, sensitive and intelligent!!!! They require the right kind of human....
Did you watch the video, or just read the title ?
@@WarwickSchiller - Yes, I did...just stating my opinion of Arabs...I run into quite a few people that dislike them intensely and prefer not to work with them....Arabian horses are amazingly easy to connect with and are willing partners in everything they are asked to do...
I raised and train Arabians for 30 years. Easiest horse to train...I trained other breeds, but Arabians are the easiest. The one thing most trainers don't get is how to correct them without hitting them or being rough with them.
My Mom always said: The relief of "pressure" is the reward. We never had to be rough with our Arabs.
It's people that are crazy
Thank you for helping to dispel this misconception. I think horses like people tend to give you what you expect, maybe because of what you're 'putting out there.'
i think they were bred to be watch dogs to be vigilant ...they are vigilant rather than spooky and very fiery
You can't have a smart horses with people that are dump and like robot, they believe every thing they hear. That just remember me with the drama that happen after some media use the word 'Habob' the describe the sand storm in Arizona, because it's an Arabic word. They forgot hundred of words that are Arabic word like Alcohol,...
hotbloodsare crazy, trump is god, CNNis my favrite network
I have an arab:) he's amazing and i love him do much..i personally like spunky horses..;)
Arabians aren't crazy, Thoroughbreds are tbh. I get so annoyed how people assume things like this
ErikaPaul AO I've ridden a tb too. He wasn't crazy. Your no better for stereotyping. Not every horse is right for every person.
I have Arabians and none of mine are crazy.
I have a quarter horse and keep him in an Arabian barn and I have learned so much about Arabian horses that I am absolutely in love with them. I will likely always own a quarter horse but when money allows, I will also buy an Arabian. They are simply gorgeous, expressive, incredibly smart, and so so loving. Yes they can be spooky but are also so innocent. Thanks for this video!
The straight Egyptian Arabian is the world's most beautiful horse. I've spent a lot of time around them and found them to be very smart as well as curious. Would love to own one
Arabians are like the pit bull of the horse world. Everybody calls them crazy, impossible to ride, and what not. It just takes time to gain their trust and respect. In order for the Arabian to respect you, you must respect it. I learned this with my first horse who is an Arabian. Have had her for 7 years now and she is retired. She taught me so much as a rider and taught me patience. Many people told me I needed to send her to slaughter but I never gave up on her, we both are very stubborn. I think she trained me more than I had her.
True respect is a must with this breed,, and compassion and care will add more positively and never underestimate how sensitive and smart with details they are..
The horse aint crazy its the owners
Interesting - I think Arabians are the opposite of crazy.. They are super intelligent & notice everything around them, as they should. People who 'think' Arabians are crazy...are themselves crazy & not in tune with their horse. They are SUPER SMART & kind. You just have to be aware & totally focused on your horse, as you should be with any breed of horse. They are indeed sensitive, but if you're paying attention - you will see & feel what they're thinking simultaneously. I mostly rode TB, TB-X & OTTB but ♥️♥️♥️ the Arabian in the herd. Sweet, loyal and so gentle with me.... and he could run like the wind! Plus, great to ride bareback! Can't really say that about Thoroughbreds 😁
They are so smart!!
People think Arabians are crazy because an Arabian makes you have to be a better horse person. They are more AWARE of things. You, your mood, their surroundings and cues. People have to have a lighter touch with an Arabian. The best horses I have seen out riding are Arabians. One place I boarded at there was a rider in her early 80's with her 28 year Arabian. You would never know that horse was not 5 years old. But it was adorable how gentle, careful and obviously proud that Arabian was to take care if it's owner. That horse would frequent look back at it's owner to be sure she was ok during rides. Arabians are given a bad rep from people who are used to riding heavy handedly. That does not always work well with an Arabian. Also depending on what kind of Arabian you are dealing with you can have a calmer or more flighty horse. Those that were used as a show/halter horse when younger and often act more flighty. They were trained to act like a dingbat to appear more "firey" in the show ring. It is a hard habit for them to break and some of them are traumatized by it. Blood lines that descend from Crabbet and the earlier Varian bred horses are amazing. As are some of the Polish lines. I tend to lean away from the Egyptian Arabians and certainly stay away from anything with inbreeding or line breeding. If I was a petite person all I would ever have is Arabians. But I need a bigger horse.
I am a Saudi,
Here in Saudi Arabia, there is Arabian and English horses. However, regarding the price, one original Arabian horse will cost as much as 3 English horses. It is not always affordable for everyone to have Arabian horse. English horses are still good.
I have a part bred and he's only as crazy as I let him be. He does spook but only stays crazy if I tense. Never has even bucked or reared mounted!
Hayley
You said a mouthful, "but only stays crazy if I tense" 🌷💞
Crazy. Lol. They're SMART. And handled badly, they're dangerous. Handled well, they cannot be bested. They'll burst their heart for someone they care about.
Most are handled by Idjits. The horse realizes this and takes advantage of it. So- CRAZY!
As with other breeds, how they are handled and their bloodlines matter. They are one of the few "hot" blooded breeds. They must be trained accordingly. Some are naturally more sensitive and more reactive genetically. People need to see whether they are the right fit for the individual equine - in all breeds.
dang that horse is so crazy! LOL. Stands there content as can be, no bit, no drama.
While yawning... 🥰🥰🥰
I understand what you were saying and support you but unfortunately there are ao many people out their through their own ignorance the horses falls victim to their inexperience and lack of knowledge. As you know sadly through no fault of their own the horses are put into circumstances that lead to further mistreatment or even death and this is why I get so extremely frustrated knowing that so many good horses meet their demise because of this .We are the voices for the horses people need to understand how horses think and communicate on their level and in doing that improve horses and their owners quailty of life because their is nothing more frustrating seeing a horse suffering and an owner at their witts end because they have just no idea what to do fix a problem that they have created unbeknownst to them in most cases .
I believe thats what I said in the video.
@@WarwickSchiller I know you said that its the other dumbies who can't get it through their thick skulls and this is the reason why so many good horses end up in bad situations or even sent off to the sale yards to be brought by the knackeries because of their ignorance, . It just frustrates the hell out of me because its so unfair that the horses suffer but with people like you ,I and others who have the sense and the understanding of how horses think and communicate hopefully their is light at the end of the tunnel for the horses .
Arabian are the most misunderstood breed. It’s hard for some people to accept that not only can their horse be their intellectual equal it might even be their superior.
Arabian owners know they have a way of expressing their feelings clearly. Mine mostly said “Oh dummy, you’re lucky I love you” which is exactly how I talk to my cat. Which means, my horses look at me like I got my head stuck in a can for 25 minutes, got free and immediately stuck my head in the can again.
My dad said you have to be smarter than the animal to train it…with Arabs so few qualify 🤣 only breed I’ve ever owned ..my current gelding is a joy and has taught this lifer more about myself than I’ve taught him… he is my best friend …
Thank you, I bought a 7 year old Arab 2 months ago.
I don't think they're "crazy" I just don't think I'm ready for one personally. My skill level needs to improve first.
Hate to bring up the abuse topic but Arabians have a very small paper thin perception of abuse, most people aren't even aware that they are abusing horses, therefore the description of Arabians being crazy. There are a very intelligent breed and very sensitive, I do think that some horses can have the brains bred out of them though, I'm mostly a thoroughbred person but there are some lines of TBs that can be difficult, genetics definitely do count for some parts of personalities.
i'll never have one but i will always love em
Best ride I EVER HAD...was on an Arabian👍
He made me yawn 2x... What-a-good-boy! Our Arabs were like this one. When people decided to ignore an Arab's needs and let them be "crazy" is about the time we decided we weren't going to show at the Arab shows anymore. I used to take one of our stallions to local little shows, and competed Western against quarter horses. By then people thought ALL Arabs were crazy. We quietly disavowed folks of that notion just by having ME do all his handling and showing. I was 14 at the time. It helped that hi kinda fit in with the QHs as his breeding was 5th generation Desert Bred Egyptian on both sides, and he was rather short, sturdily built, and he had big feet. The big feet made him SUPER graceful on the sugar-sand in Florida. The QHs with their tiny feet would sink in the sand, while our little Arab stallion could RUN on top of the sand without spraining anything.
He was trained by my Mother and I. Mom directed me how to train him, and I did EVERYTHING with him. We rode hundreds of miles together. She taught how to teach him cadence, collection, a normal and natural headset, lead changes, side passing, backing, ALL trail type obstacles and scary things, correct neck reining, and we were working on "at-liberty" riding when we got a really good offer for him. I LOVED that little stallion. He was gentle, affectionate, cooperative, level headed, and had a "kind-eye" like his Sire did. I still miss him.
Wow, what a costume!
I refuse to ride anything else. I have twelve of them and they are beautiful to work with.
They have huge egos they know they are beautiful and run around saying look at me. To me they are high strung.
Especially male horses they have so much pride
They aren't "high strung" they are "full of themselves"...
They have dignity plus what's wrong in appreciation of beauty
My horse is not Arabian but I am Arabian
السلام عليكم
عُــمـَر إِبنُ الإِماراتْ get an arabian so you can be twins lol
so you are a horse?
you are an Arab moron not Arabian
heathcliffcuckoo the word Arabian isn't just for horses, u could call a person an arab arabic arabian
@@mohdebrahim4572
lol.. check it first before you comment
@@heathcliffcuckoo *I suggest you take your own advice.* The original poster and Mohd Ebrahim know the usage of the word in English better than you do.
The FIRST definition of "Arabian" in the Merriam-Webster online dictionary is a "native or inhabitant of Arabia." Same thing in my big Webster's New Twentieth Century Dictionary Unabridged. That is the *primary* meaning of the word as a noun, the equine definition being secondary. In the online dictionary.com and Free Dictionary by Farlex, the equine meaning of the word is likewise secondary to the definition referring to humans. The same thing is true in the various dictionaries for "Arabian" used as an adjective rather than a noun. Just because 'Arab" is more frequently used to refer to people than "Arabian" does not mean "Arabian" is incorrect.
And even if the usage were incorrect applied to a human (and as I have pointed out, it is technically correct), why are you insulting a person who is presumably not a native speaker of English, for what would have been a very minor lexical error? You could have made the correction without insulting the person. Can you do as well in a foreign language?
They to smart for most people
In 8 years I moved my Arab horse 16 times. He went crazy because of that. If you're going to get an Arab horse, you should have your own stable. People say it's just a horse, no, it's an Arab horse
best horse I ever owned is a Arab.
My Arabian is more well behaved than some of the paints and quarter horses at my barn, and he’s three and a half. Even before he got gelded he was more chill than a mare or gelding.
Arab horses walking as dancing
I a from Arabia, we buy feed additives /supplements for our horses from the States ….. Omar
Horse yawned and then I did. :| Gah.
I yawned twice.... SMH...
Arabians are not Quarter Horses. So not train them like that. They are reactive and attentive which is opposite of the lazy, low head placement of quarter horses
no your wrong they aren't fully crazy but if it's a purebred and if u wanna jump it , it gallops at the jump
Why do you always want the horse's attention on you? Isn't it fine to let a relaxed horse like that look around a bit?
الكاوبوي هم الوحيدين الذين استخدمو الخيل العربي واستفادو منه وحافظو عليه بعد العرب
Nice horse
I always call my arab crazy and a lot of ppl I know do too... but that's cuz we al ride arabs and we're like "look at this wild crazy stallion" as he stands there doing tricks because he wants a treat lol
Appaloosas get the same treatment as well. :/
Phox Do they? I haven't heard that one.
bezoticallyyours83
me either
I get a bit worried about them because ive seen videos where they've played up alot and it makes me kind off anxious
This is not a straight Egyptian arabian (purest)
No sound
To bad this horse isn't a pure Arabian.
And why is that ?
so arabs are wealthy, invented maths and have crazy fast horses. i didn’t know arabians are in australia
This is the best arabian horse black with 3 white legs and in the head the name of this arabian horse its al.adaham
Wow my left earbud really liked this 😑
Pastel Unicorn What happened to your right earbud? XD
🇸🇦🇸🇦❤️💪🏼🐴
I like andalusia breed more, ,at first i had problem with arabian breed but later it was fun, ,once you get use too it ;-)
They're just extra sensitive and intelligent,, and respect is a must with this breed or it I'll backfire to be very stubborn, good luck with your horse.
Interesting. There was a recent discussion on why horses yawn. 1. they are expressing happiness, 2 they are coming down from a stressful experience From your experience, do Arabians yawn more than other types horses? Maybe from being more high strung? Maybe this one was just happy you didn't work him too hard. ;-)
Arabians aren't high strung. That's a myth and that myth is very annoying.
They're also tired.

I thought all that yawning a little strange. Especially with his head down, as if exhausted!!!😕 Have owned a few pure breds and never experienced this with them!
@@seasands9644 Horses, during training, do not yawn out of sleepiness/boredom. It's a "calming signal" (see Anna Blake). It means, just like licking and chewing, "Lay off, I get it." But studies have documented that horses most often yawn in anticipation of meal times. Again, self-calming.
My very spoiled Arab yawns when he's bored or relaxed.
