I need a Stewy in my life again. I had a Paint mare that was fearless and calm. In the 10 years that I had her I never had any drama. Now that I’m retired and older, that is just the type of horse that I feel like I need again. You are one of my favorites to watch on UA-cam, because of your patience and your thoughtful way you go about your training. ♥️👍😎
I was walking around my local supermarket. Coming towards me was a lady wearing a hoodie. On the hoodie were the words "I know I smell of Horse. I do not consider it an issue"!!
I did chuckle when Stewy turned his neck right round to see what the dickens was going on on his back, each time you climbed on, sometimes nibbling your jeans. He was so curious to find you up on him. It almost turned into a little joke for him.
I am really glad that you let the horses be comfortably themselves! It is also cute when you mention her ‘little wild horsey brain.” I have not had much exposure to horses, but have learned to really like them by watching your videos. Like cats and dogs, or even mice, etc., each one has their own unique personality which we need to respect.
Unfortunately there are a lot of horsey people who think horses have no purpose unless they're able to work. It's really lovely watching these videos and seeing someone appreciate horses simply for who they are and not making riding them the top priority.
I like that Stewy is given time to slowly experience new small steps that build his confidence. Reviewing what he already knows is reintroduced him to the familiar before moving on to a new step. He is allowed to absorb each new thing slowly. There is no pressure to push quick results because of an owner-trainer timetableable. Expectations of progress x Can ruin a timid horse. When trainers overbook their client's horses often the trainer as in a situation In AZ, the horse will be trained by an apprentice. This type of dishonesty does leave a reputation tarnished. The client will move on to another trainer trainer who is committed to living up to the contract agreement. Equally as i.portant is a trainer who is willing not to sacrifice a horse to push beyond what the horse is ready to learn. I am not in favor of breaking down horses whose knees have not closed. The Thoroughbred is still growing bone, ligaments, origins & insertions of muscle onto bone. Horses are sentient beings. Their brains read behavior of other living animals and humans. To treat the spirit of horses as an endless commodity replaceable by a foal crop in the next year, is a crime. Building trust and giving the horses brain the chance to mature as well as the body & skeletal system is humane and respectful to who they are individually. My time working the back side of the track educated my lack of awareness quickly. I never bet on the horses. A book of anatomy and locomotion of the thoroughbred horse was given to me as a gift. " The Points of the Horse" ;written by Captain Horace M. Hayes helped me learn the anatomy bone by bone. Learned by 7th grade how to recognize a correctly made horse. Also examples of skeletal weak points were demonstrated by the photos and precise drawings of correct and incorrect anatomy. Breeding, diet, stress training all were covered in this teriffic book.. My first horse was a retired track horse. His lip tattoo could still be read from his upper lip. I think he was 17 h. He was gentle and so loved. I named him "Amigo". My heart horse.❤
I love how you say each horse's name and lay hands of love and reassurance on them each and every time you see them. It makes them so bonded to you and you bonded to them.
Phyllis Hamilton here: I have been thinking deeply about your program, and your wonderful management and goals for your horses. I hope you don't mind my thoughts, because you deserve to achieve solid success as you reach your long-term goals. First of all, I sincerely hope you and your husband can find a suitable property which will enable you to achieve your goals. I developed two horse properties in PA and VA; my PA farm with a 13 stall show barn, an indoor, a large outdoor, and 8 paddocks. It was quite an adventure; I sold it to a boarding client in 2009. I'm hoping you can find a property on which you can build an indoor -- even a 60 x 100 -- and then most of all, find a great horse-obsessed teenager who can relieve you of all the mundane daily tasks, just for an affordable salary, riding privileges, or a boarding/share/lease arrangement. This will allow you to use your truly superior behavior modification skills to achieve so much more potential with your marvelous horses. Please forgive me for all this input, but having been there, and done that (now age 78) I'm just trying to pass on some thoughts from my life with horses! 🥰
I have to confess that I still miss the horses I owned. They were such a source of comfort for me. Admittedly, a lot of work but helped to keep me grounded. So nice to watch n be a part of yr world centered around those magnificent creatures!
How can any person not miss truly wonderful friends you don't see anymore??? Horses can be and are some of the best friends a smart person will ever have. Mourning their loss to time or sale SHOULD happen. At 70+ I still miss the mean old cutting horse mare who taught me how to fall off when she dropped or turned when I was 12. And I weep for her and all the others who blessed me with their trust and are long gone. I miss and mourn humans and dogs and cats and parrots. Maybe you need to repress your feelings of loss, but I ask why anyone would.
You speak of "fabulous horse training" which actually IS what you do! I was around horses for a lot of years and never saw such complete, horse centered training, as what you do! Its fascinating to watch you teach your horses, with practically "0" stress on them, which seems to result in faster learning!
Stewy is such a confident chill guy. Love that Whiplash has made friends with him. To me they look so different but I grew up with fields of plain bays, browns and chestnuts. Was forced to get good at picking out the right plain brown horse pretty fast! 😅 Thanks for pointing out their differences! ❤
Little Nigel 😂 What a cool little dude. I'm so glad he's living out his days with you. He gets to just relax. Stewy did so great! What a sweet smart boy. He's solid minded and calm. Just perfect 🫶 Scarlet moving her food to avoid coming in the stall was genius 😂 She's so stubborn and silly. Progress is progress though. She's doing things on her own schedule.
Your horses truly benefit from your vast experience and kindness (&patience!)! I really enjoy watching you work with your horses. I learn so much! I would hope younger horse owners would watch your videos and learn.
Yup, Stewy could use a bit of exercise and he is such a gentleman to teach. Hooray for Stewy! You might work Scarlet on walking an old wood plank, or something that makes that hollow wood sound? (assuming she doesn't like the sound)
Your "Flailing Training" is brilliant! And very important to a well trained, safe horse. Scarlet is just trying to hang on to that wild horse mystique of living outdoors and not coming in thru the door to a stall! All in that little horse brain!
Well, CC, you took me through making spinach muffins and cleaning up the kitchen. I just really look forward to your videos. I am learning so much about horses that I never knew!! Your commentary is always so engaging and I find that I think of you as a dear friend. Thanks for all you do to bring compassion, caring, and heart to the world. All of your animal companions are so fortunate to be with you and I feel fortunate to have found your channel. Much love and Namaste' from Humboldt County in California.❤🙏💚
Another good video! I always learn something new and interesting. Stewie is such a good boy and Scarlet is getting more and more gorgeous! Great job CC!
It's great that you get these easy horse reprieve 's once in a while too; like Stewy and Ziggy. They should be easy to find great new loving home's for when the time comes.
I really, really like the way you approach starting a horse! Letting the horse making its own decisions, using its brain and only nudging it now and then is such a relief to witness amidst all the terrible abuse documentation we see in the dressage world these days.
Too bad your boots don’t last as long as your lunge lines! 15 years is a pretty long time! I have been thinking about your problems with turning your ankles ( because for many years I also turned my ankles easily ). I know you are very frugal, but since your ankles are bothering you and when you turn one, it has a big impact on your day to day activities, May I suggest that you splurge and get your self the best quality pair of boots that support your ankles… they will more than pay for themselves in the long run, imo. ❤ Love to see you working Stewy, teaching him foundation manners and explaining to us how he is so different from your other ‘students’. Miss Scarlet is a little diva… and quite cute how she manages to get what she wants by stretching her pretty neck into the stall without actually going into the stall! Interesting to realize just how much you do rely on radar to prep for big storms… when it looks perfectly to us outside! 👍🐴😎💕🐴❤️
Back in my day I had White lace up Packers with a riding heel to help protect my ankles. ‘White’s Boots’ in Spokane Washington and ‘The Original Handmade Packer From 1936’ are still being made but at a steep price for many. Mine cost half of the price being shown today.🫤
I love how you train. Staying in the middle and letting them figure out how to carry themselves vs. using the ring as a support/guide sets them up wonderfully as a riding horse. YOU ARE SO SMART! I love Stewy, too. Have a great day!
That threshold thing! Cats sit in it, dogs sit outside it then bowl through it. Even humans treat them with a degree of recognition. The territorial boundary between two places a threshold poses sparks something of a primal fear in us all.
Stewy is such a chill, good boy! I love his curious little nibbles at your legs. Like, "What are you doing back there human? Are you okay?" I use to go to horse camp every summer (sometimes multiple times a year) and because of my horse experience I ended up always riding the most spirited troublemaker, Traveler. Traveler was a big dappled grey boy, nearly 17 hands and for a twelve year old that's huge! His favorite prank was any time we had stand he'd turn his head back, just a bit at a time so I wouldn't notice ...and then bite my leg. The first couple times I squeal in pain and suprise and the little bastard knickered and pawed like he was laughing. After a couple times I stopped reacting ... and he stopped biting. He did once somehow managed to sneak close enough while tied to bite my butt when I bent to pick up a brush. He thought that was hilarious. Gosh I miss that horse. Every other little girl was terrified of him, but Traveler was my boy. Thank you for bringing back great memories
I love getting a glimpse into all the horses' daily lives. Your breadth of knowledge always astounds me. I've learned so much. Thank you for everything you do, and for sharing!
Love your patient demeanor around your horses. I always did this to mine, none of my horses but one bucked with me. Patience is always the best way. Good for you!
I think his "Fabulous horse training" was right for the reason Stewy did so perfectly. Love that you let them learn at their own pace. I wait anxiously for each new video from you. Thanks for making my day!❤❤❤
Stewy's plan is take over the world (like Stewie from Family Guy). I think Stewy is my favorite horse on your channel. He seems so smart but gentle. I like Skelitor too, and I hope he can fully recover. He has such a great attitude.
I really enjoy when you share your training Technics, the first rides are the most important rides. Don't give up on him growing just yet. My little Arab/QH grew almost two inches in his 5th year.
G'day from Australia CC.! The back braiding as you called it, is more commonly referred to as "splicing", i wish i could do it, but i just can't get my head around it..🤣
I liked how you train your horses, patience and understanding, you are a great mothering your young ones, must be wonderful to know your helping ppl in the real world, patience is the key, ❤
With the way you brought him along, with patience and kindness, someone will be very lucky to get him! Scarlett keeps lifting her foot like she wants to come in but she just isn't quite sure.
Easy peasy, Stewy....you're a natural. He looked at CC at one point as if to say...what are you doing woman!! Love the way CC interacts with her horses. Natural, considerate, respectful and both becoming one together. Totally cool 😎
This is amazing to see: how much skill and thought goes into just getting on the horse and making sure he is ok with it before mounting is so beautiful,
Watching while a giant thunderstorm bears down me, what a coincidence. Stewy is remarkably smart and loves his human curry comb, he practically purred! Nice to see Scarlet coming out of her shell a bit.
Stewy is a sweety. I have seen his playful personality in other videos, but he also seems to know when it is time to get serious. I love the patience you have with all your horses and I know you built that relationship with trust and your patience. Thanks for sharing
When you were on Stewy and leaning on your belly and love patting him he seemed to REALLY like that. I thought that was just a wonderful thing to do for him. Great video, thank you CC. : )
Can’t wait to watch Stewy come along. It was interesting to hear you say that you start your horses in the center rather than on the edges of a pen. I never thought of that but it makes perfect sense - and makes it easier for a horse to learn/understand - rather than just follow along a wall. Scarlet is coming along with her bridle training. So nice that you are giving her the time she needs. It shows.
This pace and technique is what makes for a truly finished horse over time. I think one downside of placing a horse with a trainer comes from expecting certain results by a certain time, which is hard to get away from when it's costing you money. But horses need time for both their bodies and minds to mature and that can't be rushed, only supported. I've attended 3 of Buck Brannaman's clinics in the last 10 yrs. and this year he said something about himself that touched on this subject. His practice has been to train his 3 yr. olds under saddle every winter while he's home with his family and a few years ago he decided to experiment by only riding them at the walk and trot. He decided to only ask them to canter at the very end of the winter before he went out on the road again and when he did, they were balanced and self carrying with no fuss. It was the best progression he'd ever experienced with young horses and he adopted that practice ever since. I see you doing the same thing by taking each of your horses at the pace most appropriate for them. I'm really looking forward to seeing Scarlet under saddle but you're timing with her training is perfect for her body and mind. She'll be an interesting and talented horse to own.
Love how Stewy and Scarlet react differently with you and how you are with them 😂❤❤ Love everything about this, which is something that I never believed until I found you, am enjoying everything about your life work❤❤❤
I like your approach to beginning training for getting ready for riding. Patience and praise for success works great. Trying both sides of the brain some horse owners don’t get it. We were well trained to horses by a great trainer. Different from training dogs!🐴😂❤️
Long lines ! Back braiding. I did try to follow you 🤪. Nope. 😊 scarlet was a riot to watch. She is demonstrating her independence. 😅😅. Loved this video. Thank you so much. 😊💕🇨🇦
Aww Stewie is so sweet! You are so gentle and understanding with all the horses. And then there's Nigel! He's just like a little kid has to get a dirty face one way or another! Scarlet is beautiful!! I really wished there were more beautiful people in this world with love and respect that you have for your beautiful horses! Keep up the amazing outstanding work that you do with those 4 legged children! You're a great horse Mom!!!😂 Xtra kisses and hugs to Nigel 😘
Actually Scarlett is a genius at getting more treats from you by pretending she doesn't understand the door 😂
I need a Stewy in my life again. I had a Paint mare that was fearless and calm. In the 10 years that I had her I never had any drama.
Now that I’m retired and older, that is just the type of horse that I feel like I need again. You are one of my favorites to watch on UA-cam, because of your patience and your thoughtful way you go about your training.
♥️👍😎
Stewy is such a sweet gentle boy! Scarlet is getting more beautiful everyday. ❤️🐎❤️🐎❤️Lots of love to all the horses!
I just love your narratives. You are the best story teller. Love all the gang. It makes my day when you post a video. You are my favorite channel.
Me too ❤
@@dawnwesterbeck346me too!
I was walking around my local supermarket. Coming towards me was a lady wearing a hoodie. On the hoodie were the words "I know I smell of Horse. I do not consider it an issue"!!
Love it! Nothing smells better than horse cologne....😅
@@sleepinglioness5754 true
Great words on that hoodie!
I used to love the smell of my car when I kept my saddles in the back ………ripe horse !
I did chuckle when Stewy turned his neck right round to see what the dickens was going on on his back, each time you climbed on, sometimes nibbling your jeans. He was so curious to find you up on him. It almost turned into a little joke for him.

Scarlet grabbing her grain bucket! Brains and beauty! 😊
Wonderful to see Stewy being such a good boy ❤ All credit to you CC for his grounded upbringing and training so far 🥰

YES! In most cases, "let the horse figure it outbon their own." ❤❤❤
In every video, that horse becomes my favorite!! Good little Stewy!
Little Nigel 😂 What a cool little dude. I'm so glad he's living out his days with you. He gets to just relax.
Stewy did so great! What a sweet smart boy. He's solid minded and calm. Just perfect 🫶
Scarlet moving her food to avoid coming in the stall was genius 😂 She's so stubborn and silly. Progress is progress though. She's doing things on her own schedule.
Stewy and Scarlet are really coming along. I love how patient and kind you are! And that Nigel…well, he couldn’t have landed anywhere better. ❤
I love Stewy, he is such a sweet heart ❤❤❤

Stewy has a great story. ❤❤I'm so glad he got saved 🎉😊
I love watching your videos it is always nice to learn new things
My dyslexia kicked in again! I thought the title said Good Bye Stewy! 😮🤪
I read that, too! 😳
Me too!
Gasp! Panic! oh . . . relief! 😯😲 😌
Me too and not dyslexic, lol.
So did I! So glad I was wrong!
Love seeing you flop around. I’m getting an appreciation for kind horse care.
Stewy did so good and Scarlet looks GORGEOUS! I can't believe that scruffy little thing turned into SUCH a beauty!! Great job, CC!
really love seeing how you do the training xoxo thank you!
Such a nice video to have with my morning coffee. Stewie is so sweet.
Your "Flailing Training" is brilliant! And very important to a well trained, safe horse. Scarlet is just trying to hang on to that wild horse mystique of living outdoors and not coming in thru the door to a stall! All in that little horse brain!
Stewie looks great, and he is very well behaved. All of your horses look sleek and healthy. I loved seeing Nigel lying in his cool spot.
Well, CC, you took me through making spinach muffins and cleaning up the kitchen. I just really look forward to your videos. I am learning so much about horses that I never knew!! Your commentary is always so engaging and I find that I think of you as a dear friend. Thanks for all you do to bring compassion, caring, and heart to the world.

Stewy is 14-handedly bringing me around to "small is beautiful" when it comes to horses. Great episode!
Exactly 95k subscribers, congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉
I can’t believe how much little Scarlet has taken off !! ❤❤
She is HUGE!
Another good video! I always learn something new and interesting. Stewie is such a good boy and Scarlet is getting more and more gorgeous! Great job CC!
❤❤❤
95K Subscribers!!!! Congratulations :o))))
🎉
Even with his dad bod Stewy is a great looking horse.
Stewy did great! Nice to see him settle into a human on his back.
It's great that you get these easy horse reprieve 's once in a while too; like Stewy and Ziggy. They should be easy to find great new loving home's for when the time comes.
Lol, little Nigel, cool wee dude 🤣
I really, really like the way you approach starting a horse! Letting the horse making its own decisions, using its brain and only nudging it now and then is such a relief to witness amidst all the terrible abuse documentation we see in the dressage world these days.
Aww, sweet Stewy. All the work you do wore your boots out like I used to wear my horses shoes out after eight weeks from all the trail riding!
Too bad your boots don’t last as long as your lunge lines! 15 years is a pretty long time!
I have been thinking about your problems with turning your ankles ( because for many years I also turned my ankles easily ). I know you are very frugal, but since your ankles are bothering you and when you turn one, it has a big impact on your day to day activities, May I suggest that you splurge and get your self the best quality pair of boots that support your ankles… they will more than pay for themselves in the long run, imo. ❤
Love to see you working Stewy, teaching him foundation manners and explaining to us how he is so different from your other ‘students’.
Miss Scarlet is a little diva… and quite cute how she manages to get what she wants by stretching her pretty neck into the stall without actually going into the stall!
Interesting to realize just how much you do rely on radar to prep for big storms… when it looks perfectly to us outside!

That threshold thing! Cats sit in it, dogs sit outside it then bowl through it. Even humans treat them with a degree of recognition. The territorial boundary between two places a threshold poses sparks something of a primal fear in us all.
Its a liminal space and it causes a brain reset in humans. That's why you can walk into a room and forget why you walked in there.
Scarlett is so energetic and smart 😍.
Stewy did great in the training, he has such a sweet character ❤.
Stewy is such a chill, good boy! I love his curious little nibbles at your legs. Like, "What are you doing back there human? Are you okay?"

So good to see how calm Stewy is. He is an absolute sweetheart! And more videos of you working the horses will be great.
Good job Stewie!! I think Nigel needs some patio lanterns for his little copa cabanna!
I love getting a glimpse into all the horses' daily lives.
Your breadth of knowledge always astounds me. I've learned so much. Thank you for everything you do, and for sharing!
❤❤❤
Thank you!
“Fabulous horse training” 😊❤
Stewy is such a good boy, Scarlet is such a clever girl and Nigel is well, Nigel is Nigel, cute as a button🐎😊
Seems like a really sensible practice that considers the horse’s absence of full domestication. Very smart!😀
Stewy and whiplash would make an awesome driving team ❤
Thanks!
Thank you!
Love your patient demeanor around your horses. I always did this to mine, none of my horses but one bucked with me. Patience is always the best way. Good for you!
I love Stewy!
I just want to wrap my arms around him and say, “I Love You!”
I just love Stewie. He has such an awesome personality and Scarlet is growing so much, all thanks to you CC. I LOVE watching your videos♥️♥️♥️
Just Love Stew Man. ❤
Thanks CC, neat to see these guys learning and growing.
I think his "Fabulous horse training" was right for the reason Stewy did so perfectly. Love that you let them learn at their own pace. I wait anxiously for each new video from you. Thanks for making my day!❤❤❤

Totally cool 😎
Nice video. Informative & entertaining, beginning to end! ❤
This is amazing to see: how much skill and thought goes into just getting on the horse and making sure he is ok with it before mounting is so beautiful,
I love how you know so much about their personalities and train them using their strengths. Also, so exciting to see you are so close to 100K!
The human curry comb had me laughing so much! What a good boy!
Loved watching and hearing you explain the ride! He did so well! I love how relaxed he stayed throughout.
I love all of this!😂 Human Noodle!❤
Stewey, I love that name : )
Fabulous horse training huh😅cute cc. You are good at all aspects of horses
I love Stewy - he’s such a love chunk.
Watching while a giant thunderstorm bears down me, what a coincidence.
Stewy is remarkably smart and loves his human curry comb, he practically purred! Nice to see Scarlet coming out of her shell a bit.
He is a nice little guy CC.
Great job on Stewy. He is a sweety pie! And rotund indeed! Love your patience and slow pace work with him and all of them.
Stewy did awesome! I love chill little dudes like him. Scarlet's blondish mane looks stunning against her sorrel coat.
Stewy is a sweety. I have seen his playful personality in other videos, but he also seems to know when it is time to get serious. I love the patience you have with all your horses and I know you built that relationship with trust and your patience. Thanks for sharing
When you were on Stewy and leaning on your belly and love patting him he seemed to REALLY like that. I thought that was just a wonderful thing to do for him. Great video, thank you CC. : )
Can’t wait to watch Stewy come along. It was interesting to hear you say that you start your horses in the center rather than on the edges of a pen. I never thought of that but it makes perfect sense - and makes it easier for a horse to learn/understand - rather than just follow along a wall.
Scarlet is coming along with her bridle training. So nice that you are giving her the time she needs. It shows.
This pace and technique is what makes for a truly finished horse over time. I think one downside of placing a horse with a trainer comes from expecting certain results by a certain time, which is hard to get away from when it's costing you money. But horses need time for both their bodies and minds to mature and that can't be rushed, only supported.
I've attended 3 of Buck Brannaman's clinics in the last 10 yrs. and this year he said something about himself that touched on this subject. His practice has been to train his 3 yr. olds under saddle every winter while he's home with his family and a few years ago he decided to experiment by only riding them at the walk and trot. He decided to only ask them to canter at the very end of the winter before he went out on the road again and when he did, they were balanced and self carrying with no fuss. It was the best progression he'd ever experienced with young horses and he adopted that practice ever since.
I see you doing the same thing by taking each of your horses at the pace most appropriate for them. I'm really looking forward to seeing Scarlet under saddle but you're timing with her training is perfect for her body and mind. She'll be an interesting and talented horse to own.
Excellent work CC! ❤❤❤❤
Love how Stewy and Scarlet react differently with you and how you are with them 😂❤❤
Love everything about this, which is something that I never believed until I found you, am enjoying everything about your life work❤❤❤
Your horses are all so beautiful and look very healthy and happy!
How is Huckleberry?
He has been more of a home body lately, The coyotes are out and about!
I like your approach to beginning training for getting ready for riding. Patience and praise for success works great. Trying both sides of the brain some horse owners don’t get it. We were well trained to horses by a great trainer. Different from training dogs!🐴😂❤️
This is great !!! Just love seeing Stewy using his smarts to figure things out. Very cool about Scarlet too. She has such a strong personality
Long lines ! Back braiding. I did try to follow you 🤪. Nope. 😊 scarlet was a riot to watch. She is demonstrating her independence. 😅😅. Loved this video. Thank you so much. 😊💕🇨🇦
Aww Stewie is so sweet! You are so gentle and understanding with all the horses. And then there's Nigel! He's just like a little kid has to get a dirty face one way or another! Scarlet is beautiful!! I really wished there were more beautiful people in this world with love and respect that you have for your beautiful horses! Keep up the amazing outstanding work that you do with those 4 legged children! You're a great horse Mom!!!😂 Xtra kisses and hugs to Nigel 😘
Hi from Orange County, CALif. Just love Stewy and your calm approach of teaching. Great video. Thanks!!
