Passing Loose Mares with a Driving Stallion

  • Passing loose horses with any driven or ridden horse can sometimes be an issue, but especially so if the ones in the field are mares and yours is a stallion! In order to keep everyone safe, any horse should know how to behave when they are at work or being handled - regardless of breeding status or experience.
    Watch how we begin to train a young Part-Bred Arab stallion Nuri, to remember his manners when he meets other horses whilst working.

    It’s difficult since the mare is flirting with him. She couldn’t let such a handsome fellow pass by without a close look!

      May be. May be not and the reason is that she was bored.
      Her people gave her no higher purpose,
      no task, no duty except to eat grassand look around,
      like pulling a carriage or training a young horse.
      The larger thoughts and duties
      defeat the smaller ones.
      Hopefully.
      They're missing a preacher like Berry Hook.

    I’m surprised by how many people don’t understand that working horses love to work as long as they are well taken care of and in good health. They will stand and wait to go to work. they think it’s fun as long as their driver knows what they are doing and giving the horse a positive experience.

      Animals need enrichment, and work is often that enrichment! It only becomes an issue when the animal is overworked. But this doesn't look like one of those crappy city carriages where the horses work for too long in terrible conditions.

      Stallions are not dangerous themselves. They are made dangerous by people treating them like they're dangerous from the day they're born. As long as you know what you're doing, which should always be the case around horses, they won't be any more dangerous than other horses

Without meaning to I trained my dog to move out of the way by saying toot toooot.

      My young stallion does fine in arenas with mares and stalled across from them as well. He’s even been trailered with one and never had a problem. He’s grew up in pastures with a herd of old geldings and currently has a stall where he can play with another gelding through the paddock fence and he’s never had problems. He’s always a happy boy! Everyone who’s had him at their facility or worked with him always says he’s quiet and polite and like a big gelding. If they have boundaries and rules especially starting young they tend to do better as they get older.

They are big animals and especially when a coach is involved, a horse acting up can be very dangerous or even fatal. He never once used physical force, only his voice. A stallion responding to voice commands only while standing right next to mares is a testament to the skill of the trainer/driver.

    My neighbor had a stallion when I was growing up. The previous owner had allowed the stallion to cover any old mare while he was saddled and bridled. This led to the stallion hopping on a mare while my neighbor AND the owner of said mare were both ON their horses!!!
    He worked on that stallion for ages after that and by the time he was done his little grandson could ride the stallion through the mare barn with every mare in heat and the stallion wouldn’t even look at them. The trade being as SOON as the saddle and bridle were off he was allowed to go to each stall and “speak” to each mare over the door.
    My own mare-broodmare, retired-would get endlessly pissy at him because he ignored her flirting. My second mare-maiden, never had a foal-would get pissed if he even glanced at her when she was in season. Both reactions were mortifying as a teenaged girl, lol.

    It's much the same with intact working dogs. People were SO shocked to find out that our service dogs (mine and my trainer's) were both intact males because they "didn't act like it." But both were raised from puppies to behave themselves, and once the vest was on they were laser focused on their handler and their job. Even during downtime, the two of them would share crates and dog bowls without a fuss. All it takes is good training!

      Everyone in this neighborhood could tell you yeah my dogs run free but they don't bite we don't allow biters to run free they mostly avoid ppl unless you throw out food I stay on top of their no biting for that reason most of the outside ones don't go near ppl but everyone in the neighborhood also knows to let them come to them as they run away we don't get ones that will all of a sudden bite you for no reason we did have one that bit men but she gave warnings and tended to avoid men period she was abused by a man before we got her the lady gave Oreo to her father but her father was in bad shape and called us to see if we would take the aunt of the dog we got just a few months before from him by the last few years of her life you wouldn't believe she was afraid of men took dad a year for her to fully warm up to him she didn't mind kids and we knew warning signs to know when to tell a man to back away she would tense and start to move her lip and give a little growl that growl was the sign we looked for as the tensing meant she was still safe to rub a little longer but the growl meant enough we just warned the man about the signs her last year of life? You never would have believed she was once a growler but boy was she protective of her pups she wouldn't let strangers or cats near the pen she was alright on the outside of the pen but not on the inside we always said something when at the door so she know who it was when one of my cats went near I never saw a dog come tearing out of the doghouse so fast as her before which never been around protective mamas before either

      Yup, I remember asking for advice on reddit about humping between my males dogs cause all of them are intact but they aren't aggressive humping more like play humping and I got sooooo much sh*t for
      A) having three dogs
      B) having three INTACT male dogs.
      rather than actual help in the end I got help from youtube randomly linking me to dog trainers. I explicitly said multiple times non of them are aggressive. I just thought they were over stimulated and was asking for advice.
      More over I often tell people my dogs are good but not well trained. They are nice but I still work on them jumping on people and recall, I don't and won't consider my dogs well trained until I have both of those commands down packed. Non of my dogs have bit any hell my dogs have escaped for trying to play with kids and other dogs. They are super friendly and that's why I want perfect recall.

      As all good stallions should be behaving.
      All males are born with balls in the horse world.
      Only the best who've worked hard and earned them get to keep and make use of those balls at the right time. And only when you allow it. Not when he insists like it or not.
      Breeding has to be earned it's not just a given.
      Especially in wild in real life.
      No stallion gets a mare or a breeding he didn't work extreamelly hard for.
      I have 2 stallions both quiet enough my 15 and 18 yr old son's have been riding them since they were 11 and 14.
      They know the difference between a bridle for riding.
      And the Bridle for breeding.
      Their both ridden bitless.
      My wife rides both of them even on her woman's time no issue.
      This rubbish about can't have a woman ride my stallion.... He'd never do a thing she says.... Well then why is he still a stallion. He wouldn't be at my stud.
      That would be delt with real quick.
      And this acting up on their toes screaming and carrying on.... No mares in sight.
      Just acting the damn fool to be a damn fool.
      IT ISNT CUTE.
      IT ISN'T FANCY.
      IT'S NOT DOSENT THAT STALLION LOOK AWESOME.
      IT'S HOPE YOU CAN DUCK QUICKER THAN HE CAN KICK IF YOU KEEP IGNORING THAT DEPLORABLE BEHAVIOUR.
      AND SAY HE SEES A MARE SHES IN HEAT.
      SHES SEEN HIM.
      YOUR TRYING TO CONTROL HIM.
      YELLING NO NO NO NO NO DOSENT MEAN SHIT TO THEM IF YOU HAVENT WORKED AT ALL ON HOW THEY BEHAVE MARE OR NO MARE AROUND.
      IVE SEEN STALLIONS DRAG THEIR OWNERS THROUGH FIELDS OVER HEDGES INTO TRAFFIC TILL THE IDIOT LET GO OF THE REINS THAT WERE YANKING AWAY AT THE HORSES MOUTH THE WHOLE TIME.
      OWNER HOLLERING STOP AND NO THE WHOLE TIME.
      STALLION PAID ZERO ATTENTION AND BRED THE MARE ANYWAY.

      @@therealcoltstonewolfe I so agree,
      At a driving rally, I went with a friend who owned a young horse who had just been broken to harness.
      An older couple, who had taken up driving as a hobby, had been lent an older pony to drive. They decided they wanted something with 'more spark' and had bought a Welsh A pony stud.
      At the first rally the pony was showing way more spark than was warranted! As they started to drive him around so he ducked his head down, shook and the bridle slipped over his ears, he then proceeded to try and cover a mare who was harnessed up!
      The stud came to me, labelled as dangerous.
      I harnessed him up, as I went to get into the cart so he reared vertical and took off. Two hours later he was dripping with sweat, willing to stand still and listening to me.
      Hard work, consistent discipline, in and out the stable, and he was a different pony.
      A girl (11) rode him, took him hunting, rode him in gymkhanas, respected he was a stud but didn’t treat him any differently to any horse.

    What an incredible way to train your horses. That’s a perfect way manage them. You want your animals, children, to follow you directions out of respect for you, not a fear of you! It was great to watch him mold to your voice instead of physical aggression. This was perfect way for training.

    It's a blessing
    to work
    with a horse like Cloud.
    That's why it was so callous
    to replace the workhorses
    with machines
    and them
    to be sold to the butcher early.

    The way you treat your horses is amazing! If I ever own horses one day, despite my disabilities, I’ll definitely give them a similar training plan! I don’t think horses should have fear be a training method, but it’s so hard for me to find reliable sources! This helps a lot!

    Wonderful to watch, to see the training in action. First time to your channel, very informative. Also I am from America and am amazed at the way the automobile drivers give you room to pass. Where I'm from most of our roads are two lanes, and am always surprised at how narrow a lot of your roads are. Everyone gives respect to auto or animal. Thank you.

    • @Nigolasy
      @Nigolasy Місяць тому +3

      Those narrow roads are very common all over europe.
      It's mainly why the first law in traffic is: "mutual consideration and attention" so that everyone can get home safe.

    My father would have loved this. He plowed fields in NW Ohio with workhorses. He spoke fondly about the power of their horses and mules. You can see the workhorses in action being used by the Amish in the area.
