She seems very responsive once she figures out what you want. Your patience, kindness and calmness allows her to 'understand' without getting too worried. She seems like a very gentle soul. And I love her butterscotch coloured coat, she is adorable.

She's so sweet! It's adorable seeing her move closer to you when you stopped scratching her. Very Lena like!

After rescuing and QTing many horses out of kill pens over the last 7 yrs here in Kansas - I love these unhandled babies the best!! Watching them transform from kindness and love shown them well, there isn't anything quite like it. I'm sidelined with pesky physical issues for the time being so I enjoy watching you work with your horses and especially this little girl - thank you for posting this video!

I love how quickly she learned to swing her butt round to you asking for scratches

Very interesting video. It's so helpful to see the whole process, like a real lesson (for us) to understand how to overcome her worries, get back her attention, calm her down, reassure her, the little ups and downs, working your way towards more consistant ups, slowly but surely, step by step. Great job !

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed this one.

I just love seeing you in action! Especially when I can see the entire picture. This reminds me of the relationship my dog has with her groomer of 7+ years; Claire is always so very glad to see Jackie but isn't too fond of what she does. 😂 You have a lot of draw with Annie but she's not too sure about the new things you ask of her. 😅 you are so attuned to her body language that you see subtle signs of worry that I miss entirely. Off to watch (& learn) one more time. tfs. ❤

Thanks Penny :) Yes, we have this all sorted out now and she's fully haltered and leading. Vet comes on Monday

Well done 👏👏She is really a good nature little filly. Her progress is amazing. This demonstrates that with respect and kindness, man can tame these animals. No need to be rough and break them mentally. What strikes me is her little mouth, her head so triangular and typical of wild horses who onces roamed the plains of central Asia or local herds of feral and wild horses all over the world. In yesterday's video we could see the long hair of her beard. Also, like Mr Wilde, she has thick solid legs built for running on all types of soils.

Thank you! Yes, it's going quite well. It's true, they have different heads and shapes

Amazing.....this little girl is a Wild Horse....You have only shown her kindness and patience.....The way I have seen Mustangs handled in the US is beyond cruelty......and here we see a quiet good natured little one learning trusting her human.......the process is so civilized and Annie is responding like the beautiful horse she is. Impressed. Bella 😊🐎😊

Thanks for this! I've just taken ownership of two wild Konik horses. My first horses so, I'm taking it slow but happy that I am able to brush them down and I'm getting attention and less spooking.

That's so interesting. You're very patient and slow going. That's going to pay off in the long run. Annie's so cute. Love her! 🐎❤️

Draw over drive, love it, Graeme! Thank you for posting this video! I don't know how feasible this would be for you to do, but I would be interested to see how your check for ticks and other parasites.

It's feasible, I took some video of all of that, just have to get organized and edit it

Good morning! Its so nice too see Baby Annie come close to you for scratching. She is trusting you. She is so calm and patient. She is such a good girl. Little big Baby Annie, what a sweetie 🐎🙂🧡

❤😊 She is a smarty.

Thank you for this. Your presence around her is so calming, a real treat to see it done this way and not flapping stuff around to make her move. Great video 👍

AGAIN, I Wish I would’ve found you 4 years ago!!! I went so backwards with my older mustang by following other techniques 😔 anyways thank you again!

You're very welcome, my pleasure :)

I am so happy to see you all again ☺️and your trail looks awesome.

She looks so much better in the short time you've had her.

Baby Annie is coming along really well. It's very helpful to see the process from the very start. I look forward to watching her journey, as I know it will be steady and totally natural without any nasty forceful behaviour. Just a quick question, is there any reason why Little Miss and Baby Annie aren't in together any more? I know Maia has gone home now, and there was an extra area left, and wondered if this was the reason. Keep up the amazing work Graeme :D

The two of them make such a massive mess of the paddock that it's very hard to maintain. Also, Little Miss is eating too much so I need to monitor her more while I give Annie an all-you-can-eat approach for weight gain.

Very, very interesting and good explanation so that I could understand the difference between drive & draw training.

Jeez she's really filling out fast! She's gonna be a big 'un this lovely girl 😍, must be all that quality hay! Special thanks to your hay supplier! ❤️

Yay! We get to see some more breaking the ice moments with baby Annie!

Oh how much easier your job would be if you could halter the back end 😂

She did so great. She's a smart little thing. ☺️. Saw the short so I know you were successful. Just wondering if it was any different with this process being that she's so young compared to an older horse? Any challenges you wouldn't normally see with a more mature horse? It didn't look a whole lot different but I know this was just a snippet of the full process.

I don't feel like the process is any different for age. The only difference is the amount of human interaction and possible backwards mileage. I didn't feel like I had any more or less trouble with Mr. Wilde or Little Miss. It's kind of a snippet of the process but it looks a lot like this the whole time. Quiet, quick.. subtle here and there.

This is fascinating to me since she's a wildie. I know there's pressure and release but is it any different with her than with a domesticated horse? I know you don't have the time to go into detail, just curious if it's there's a difference in how it's done. Thank you for showing us this update!

Baby steps for lucky baby Anne

She is so #mall and gorgeous 😎💙😇

You taught her if she walks off you take rope away hope you don't keep doing that. If u had a short rope just put it around her neck make a loose collar and leave on for five minutes. Then just put the halter and the lead you can let her walk draging rope then pick it up and she's broke . Never leave them alone with it on .cuz there goofy great job

I wasn't asking for advice, I'm giving it. Choose to take it or don't. Annie is very well educated and I didn't change a thing to match your needs. This video is a month old and everybody has been able to see how well she leads and is haltered. Maybe you could learn something instead of being critical?
