I love it that you chose to keep the horses together!

Let’s all take a moment to appreciate the expertise in this video COMBINED with the ability to simultaneously teach both humans and horses. There is great patience in taking an audience/ students through this knowledge. Good stuff here!

Definitely my favourite horsey guy… Good to see green horses being used to “ how to” not an “here’s one I prepared earlier! Great work,keep it up. Thanks.

Great job Ryan!!! As a farrier myself, I have done all this with green or unhandled horses. Only extra step i do sometimes is to just take a long soft lead rope, put a half knot in it (there's a way to do it without your head being near the feet)... then just pick up, put down, pick up, put down... over and over and over until they relax and get bored and no longer fight. It's really a feel per animal to see what they need. But i have been using all those steps you just showed plus the extra i mentioned, for a good 20+ years as a farrier. Great video!!!

You were very calm and direct with him, very professional!

I really like that you're working with a green horse - it's a real life situation

I don't even own a horse! Why am I watching this? Because, many times when a trainer approaches an animal with kindness, firmness and patience, it's a useful lesson for other aspects of life.

I would love to express how strongly I appreciate this amazing tutorial🤍 I followed your step-by-step guide and it worked out!!! A few days later, I came to the stall, my 2 y.o mare was easy to approach and she allowed me to pick up her hind leg with almost no effort, even though she is extremely prone to kicking. Thanks for your horsemanship knowledge and experience 🙏🏼

I really like Ryan's techniques and methods he's developed. He also has a very nice presentation and ability to convey his message. Always a gift when a horseman has the ability to share his skills. And his opportunity to work with Martin Black, one of my favorite horsemen, from childhood in Nevada, solidifies my faith in Ryan. Thank you Ryan for your time and work to share your skills.

I like how you use a green horse to show/teach. Reality - visually see what could and does happen/how horse may react and how to deal with that situation. Thanks for the video.

It's about changing that horse's mind from "it's his idea to leave" to he thinks it was YOUR idea.

There should be a way to require every horse owner to watch this video before their farrier shows up at the barn !!!

I would just groom him and pick up feet and brush them out and use hoof pick...do it two three times a day. I've done this on crisis horses...always worked for me. You've got two weeks....it will work😊

Wow! those two are sooooo beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for actually showing us this on a horse that is green. So many people show tutorials on push-button horses.

nice that little guy has you to start him out

This is going to be a big help with my green broke mare.

This is soooo important. (This is years ago) A friend of a friend of mine bought a horse. The sellers drugged the horse so he would take under saddle. After she brought it, she and the farrier unpleasantly discovered that the green gelding could NOT have his feet done. Because he was "dangerous", she gave up trying to work with him and allowed the horse's hooves to split. It took me less than 10 minutes to just touch his feet. Sadly, they moved away, and I never got to finish (or take legal actionbecause that is straight up neglect). This is so important for everyone's safety.

Ooooh.... I want that horse so muuuuch....

Thank you! I have a new young horse that I need to prepare for the farrier and this video is quite helpful in fine tuning my game plan.

Hi Ryan, wanted to thank you for making this video. I got a 2 year old filly who did not like her legs being touched and would yank her leg around or just start walking off if your tried to pick her hooves. I used your advice from this video and now she's wonderful! I can pick her hooves without a halter on her...if you would've told me that when I got her I would've thought you were insane. Thanks again! Love your videos!

Wow is so true. Brother I just want to hug you. I worked on race track and the farrier doesn't want to fight a horse to do his feet. They've got so many horses to do and don't need the extra work 🎠🦄😜🤗

He needs a trim, and I am dreading calling the farrier with him the way he is now. I don't know what the previous owners did with him, poor guy. I am going to try your methods and see if we can get a breakthrough.

There seems to me that few women can gain such trust and leadership, in such a short time ,as easily as men can. I think horses can sense the strength of the human male's confidence. BTW those are indeed beautiful horses.

My horses and I have many things in common. I only change or learn new and better habits when the "pain" (discomfort) of change is less than the discomfort of staying the same.Horsemanship is your gift of gently and consistently communicating this to the horse. Communication is both giving and receiving understanding. I enjoy your videos! In my life the "speed of life" is my greatest hinderance to becoming a better horseman.

This is exactly the video I needed. Thank you. my horse really moves his feet when anyone picks them up which makes it difficult for me to even pick his feet. We'll be doing this every day I see him now.

Nice horse and good class keep it up, grettings from Venezuela

Very good video

Hey Ryan, subscribed a few days ago and am really enjoying your technique. I owned horses for years and always started handling foals right away ... as soon as the mare and foal did their initial bonding, I would be running my hands all over that baby and talking to him and mama so that to him, I was just one of the family. I continued the 'hands on' treatment daily after that so when it was time for a halter he wasn't afraid. He would be so used to my kids and I that he just thought everything we did with him was so much fun! With my first foal, my oldest son would winnie at him from across the paddock and baby would winnie back! It was so cute 😄 Anyway, after watching this clip on 'farrier prep on a green horse' (which was great by the way), I have to ask why you don't put your shoulder to the horse? Whether green or an ol' timer, they always seemed to know this was their signal to give me their hoof. You know, like putting the lead rope around the foal's butt when teaching him to lead - it's kinda the same idea. Of course, I don't mean anything aggressive, but just a bit of my weight leaning on them as I bent over and reached for their hoof. I had one cranky old mare that liked to do things like pin me against the wall of her stall and then stand on my foot! Lol! I was only a kid when my mom gave me her and her 2 yr old filly for my 11th birthday - I was on my own with them, no one I knew had any experience with horses. That mare taught me a few things really quickly! When she would get into a mood and wouldn't want to give me her foot, I would just put more weight against her shoulder (I always started at the front of course) or if necessary give her a bit of a push with my shoulder to kind of make her have to shift to keep her balance and while her weight was off that hoof I would pick it up! I don't know if this was right or wrong since I was self taught, but I continued my 'technique' for all the years I had horses and it never failed me. Looking forward to hearing from you 🙂

Enjoyed and helpful.

hi ryan, i have a 16 year mare (qh- pleasure hi-bred type) who use to be no problem to shoe in the past ,but ive had a couple blacksmiths who have gotten after her for moving or pulling her foot away ,a couple kicks in the gut , and now she goes into panic mode the minute one walks into the barn, they are barley able to trim let alone shoeing her. she's good with me as im now the one to trim her.

New to your channel and I an really glad I found you!!!! I train puppies and so much is similar with our students; like building confidence & trust. I like the way your horse looks at you with confusion but respect. So many things we ask of our students must seem very strange to their nature; but if taught with love and patience they are so willing to learn. Great Job!

Beautifully done ! In the process of installing this on a super hot, overreactive yearling filly here, it sure is a process ;)

Really loving these videos! Getting a 9 month old colt on Tuesday, looking forward to trying these tricks.

Excellent video, thank you!! Just got an untouched yearling and this video is going to greatly help us out!

I tried this with my fairly green Quarter Pony filly this afternoon, and it was a catastrophe. She caught on to being led by two ropes right away, but then had a meltdown and went into nervous pacing, head tossing, throwing her head in the air, etc. She will give her feet if I use a soft rope or a boat hook, but I have barely enough time to clean them out before she starts struggling. My idea is now to pick up her feet and then immediately put them down, before she slams them into the ground. Again and again and again. Otherwise, I'll have to ask the vet for some kind of sedation before the farrier comes again. I had one farrier out (my usual guy had a knee replacement) and he really ruined a lot by being rough and impatient. Now I have to go back to square one. Any other good ideas???

Thank you Ryan 😊 love your channel God Bless 🙌 🙏 ❤️

First of all, loved your information, explanation, and demonstration for preparing your horse for the farrier. Now my question: my horses are used to having their hooves trimmed by a farrier. It seems like the time it takes with the horse's hoof up causes them to be more uncooperative. How do you build up the horse's stamina for keeping each hoof up? Or does that just come with maintenance before you know the farrier is coming soon?

This is great, I was just with my farrier this morning to trim a yearling and a 2 year old. We used a thinline busybuddy to distract. I don't have a lariat rope to lift the foot, can I use a lead rope or a lunge line? True story I hurt my back in December trying to pick up the yearlings foot. I'm so glad you explained this all out here.

Nice technique. I'll give a try on a green horse. Thanks a bunch.

What if it appears your horse is having trouble balancing themselves?

Are you saying you are “bringing your ‘LIFE’ up” when you put more pressure on the horse? What do you mean exactly?

My horse is okay with me holding his legs but once the farrier pulls out the tools he goes crazy what can I do

This was so helpful! My very green mustang is getting her feet done in a week and a half - now I have a solid game plan! Thanks so much for sharing this!

I don't know what to do about my horse. He used to stand & even fall asleep while trimming but now he's 23 & last few years he's gotten to where he pulls away & even kicks the Farrier! He never used to do that! He does have arthritis & I give him Bute before hand & he still does it. What can I do? I need help.

How do you teach him to accept the front feet between the legs

What happened to his coat around the withers?

This video is extremely helpful! I have a 2 yr old I got about a month ago and she has had her feet trimmed before but is still hesitant with picking up her feet. She has also started to bite when I try to lift up her front. Any advice on best way to deter her from biting?

Do we know he’s not resisting the bend BECAUSE of the knee finally buckling?

Ryan, could we expose Cody to this approach at your Spring clinic? Once in awhile Cody has a “sticky” left hind and I’d like YOUR eyes on it for some feedback.

Is the pat on the hoof… do they receive that like a pat on the shoulder or..

Any chance you can show us how to handle a horse that pulls back when the feet are roped to lift and when you physically lift a hoof and the horse buckles under/falls in to you?

Also. Should I introduce the rope differently before doing this if the horse is not already desensitized to it or is this horse in the video not ever had a rope on him like that either?

Hey Ryan! Have you done a video when a horse anticipates? I have a horse that I’ve started working with and I mostly walk and trot him. Every time I bring him back down to a walk, within 10 steps he starts trotting again when I haven’t asked him too. It’s winter time so we just do some patterns indoor until it’s warmer for the trails.

I don't want to put a farrier under a horse who is unprepared. It's not only inconsiderate but unsafe. My farrier, Rick, is a horseman as well as an excellent farrier. When I got Midnite Star he had never had his feet handled or his feet trimmed. It wasn't long before it was safe and easy to handle his feet. I probably should have used a rope but I didn't.

What do you do when the house keeps moving?

My girl allows me to do pick her front feet up. But once I go for the back,she is kicking out.

Hey Ryan, I've been working with a yearling on picking up her feet to be cleaned/farrier etc. I'm making a routine of picking up her front foot then her back foot (on each side.) Well, she has started lifting her back foot as I go to pick it up...she's not kicking, but it doesn't feel like she's giving me her foot either. I've caught her foot and place it down each time she does that, and only praised and continued when I can pick it up from the ground...do you have any suggestions other than what I'm doing? I saw your 'teach your horse to pick you up' video and I'm thinking move her off when she does it and make lifting her leg nicely a relief?

I think what he meant was when the colt was weaned from its mother the other gelding became his first companion. Therefore, he has a strong attachment to the other gelding that will eventually relax with age and confidence.

After weaning from mare, they place foal with an older buddy gelding who acts as their baby sitter/mentor. It socializing them better and really helps with their behavior later because they will watch the older one to learn and the older one can be used as a “sitter” in the background when teaching new behaviors or introducing stressful things and it gives them confidence

Hi good video, BuT.. It's very important to give horses verbal ques.. if you start by saying "foot" when teaching the pick up, eventually they learn to pick up their foot with just a verbal command. I really don't understand why we don't teach verbal commands more often. Back, Walk On, Trot, Canter, etc.. most horses will learn these ques! Also please show more direct positive reinforcement, everytime they do good and not just a quick pat with no verbal communication at the end. Take a moment to show them how well they do when they get it. Also very important to do some prep bonding and positive communications before starting training, like walking with them around a bit and get them relaxed. Preparing a horse for a training session is just as important and helps greatly to get the horse more engaged. Its so annoying when trainers make the horse figure out what it is you want or expect from them by waving a flag or moving them around multiple times.... tell them, talk to them and show them. It helps to really talk to your horse and show lots of positive reinforcement by petting and treats! I know it sounds like I'm a big softy.. I'm not! Let your horse know they are in classroom before trying to teach them! You are very good and have the physical moves, now pair it with the emotional and sensory moves 😀 Very nice to see you loading more videos.

You can tell that Ryan is being effective with his communication because the horse made huge progress in a short amount of time and was much softer at the end. Ryan's timing and releases are so spot on that horses appreciate his style more than they would someone who fed a lot of cookies and didn't have his finesse, feel, and timing. There are a thousand ways to teach and many of them are "right". If the horse is doing well then NO WORRIES!

One funny thing/problem with verbal cues is when your horse is so well trained to them other people can control the animal you are working with. My old horse was verbal trained walk, trot, canter and whoa and would respond when other trainers in arena yelled it or people lunging did, and in my lessons my trainer had to spell everything so he wouldn’t do it for we wanted him to ....was annoying and funny
