Claiming space / Testing Boundaries

This horse is constantly pushing his boundaries and trying to claim my space. In this video I am showing you how I get that under control.

    The horses that are allowed to push and walk over their owners are the ones that become dangerous and end up in a kill pen . Getting his butt snapped a little with the lunge whip old school style is kinda like having a “come to Jesus meeting” with Grandad!! Love the informative videos.

Your way is simple, respectful of the horse and most important to me, you read body language. I’ve learned so much from you and now understand a horse’s little nuances. Thank you! Thoroughly enjoying your training approach and explanations.

    There's a 10yr thoroughbred lesson horse at my barn who's not quite this bad but he definitely has a space and attitude problem. At least he can lunge. But he's absolutely ridiculous in the cross ties, head shaking, bites, threatens, scratches on you, leans on you, ect. He'll throw a fit if you tell him something he doesnt want while riding and go after other horses and riders. He'll try to counterbend and bolt with you. I'm an adult rider who's been working with him a couple months with your methods and we're slowly getting an understanding. But the kids that ride him are usually terrified of him and let him get away with all his bad behavior. So until the barn decides he needs to shape up, I can really only work on my own expectations for him. Very frustrating.

    Thanks for sharing this video with us! I liked how you modeled standing your ground with this horse. Do you think the mouthy and pushy behavior is learned or part of his natural attitude or both?. He seemed like his is trying to intimidate but was not successful! I have learned many things from your videos and one of them is the step toward. Last fall, I noticed two of my horses trying this when I saddle. Thanks for bringing that to light for me. Addressing it has made this problem go away. Still watching for it though.

    Like humans, horses personalities from "the boss mare" to gentle and easy going and more towards the bottom of the pecking order is a natural part of who the horse is and some will test people more then others. Also, some behavior is learned because with certain humans and other horses this behavior gets them what they want. These tantrums make the human stop asking for something, go away because the horse may bite, not take him riding, have him worked with less, etc. and he may be just fine with that. I know people who will give these horses their grain as fast as possible and be gone so they don't feel intimidated by a large horse when that is literally rewarding bad behavior and it takes a trainer or barn manager to go everyday and have him back out of the humans space before they pour grain in and only allow him to come and eat when the human says. Some humans reward this behavior not understanding that they are or the fact they are actually training the horse to continue this behavior. I am currently dealing with a mare now who is the leader of the herd and the person feeding them would rush to give her the grain so they wouldn't feel so squeezed. Then she started eating faster so she would snarf up what she had and go start eating everyone else's grain because she was the boss mare. To fix this and give everyone more time the person feeding just started giving her more grain so it took her longer to eat and she wouldn't go steal other horse's grain. e had no idea that he was reinforcing her violating human boundaries and as the person who put ground manners on the mare a while before this all happened. . . . .when I went to get her from her paddock she was entirely in my space and would barely lead and we made circles to get where we were going. I wanted an easy straight line, but she disagreed and felt she needed to do circles over a dozen times in order to be led somewhere. I didn't want to walk the same distance over a dozen times. She was both a more dominant personality and then humans had unknowingly rewarded and/or not correctly behavior issues when they arose. I have seen it happen all of the time and people don't know that they are training the horse every second that they are around them and with everything the horse does or doesn't get away with and the humans response to it. The answer to your question is it's both and it can be varying degrees of either depending on the horse and the circumstance they are in.

    I really appreciate your comment about how it is an owners responsibility to correct bad behavior and how irresponsible it is to not deal with it. I have had friends who have bought good horses. The horse tests them a little and they let it slide. Within a month or two the horse is now dangerous. Why? Because those little things were not addressed because the owner didn't want to "hurt the horse's feelings". I had one friend go thru 3 horses before she finally started hearing what all of us were telling her. SHE was not the bad guy for setting boundaries. Setting boundaries is just a normal part of any healthy partnership.

    So, do you think that they can get too much "love and cuddles" or that plus he was not given reinforced boundaries? I've worked with small animals more. There is work and play time. During training, he learns boundaries and jobs. Boundaries are permanent, only broken on command. We will tug of war and he will get all fierce then roll over for belly rubs. When we are just chilling or playing he gets fussed over. I know horses can do damage because of size and power, but is there ever play time?

    Anybody look critically at these so-called “problem horse” training videos? First, you’re told the horse has this problem or that problem, or the owner is afraid of the horse. But these problems are never demonstrated for the viewer. Then, all you see is the author endlessly lunge the horse….but never get on the horse! Are we supposed to lunge our daily rider for 2 hours before mounting? Few people have that kind of time. I believe many viewers are too credulous.

    Any trainer who allows the horse to demonstrate the undesired behavior for the benefit of the video does not care about the heat interest of the horse. Allowing the bad behavior only encourages more bad behavior. Also anyone who does not have the time to do the groundwork correctly has no business owning a horse.
