Slowest way is the fastest way. If you treat it like you got all day it will only take a couple hours if you treat it like it's going to take a couple hours it's going to take all day.

Awesome video. When I teach my Rottweiler dogs to drive(carting), the first time I add weight, it is with a person pulling some even pressure on the traces. If panic happens the person can adjust the tension on the traces.I also teach my dogs the gee and haw thing. It does help. My dog show friends are amazed at how easily my dogs learned to drive. In my younger years I jogged Standardbred race horses at the Saratoga, N.Y. racetrace. Great video.

When I start Standardbred colts in a cart, I always have one person at the head & one person line driving. For the first couple of (short) lessons the colt is led much more than actually driven. Then the person @ the head gradually drops back and gives control to the driver. Works well, and it helps to prevent wrecks.

It's funny that, that colt was being a butt until you turned the camera on. Glad no one got hurt haha

Horse was just having a bad hair day and did NOT want to be on camera.. until the camera was on then he was like Fine! I'll be fabulous then! Great episode hope you put out some new ones soon you sir and living the dream.

Look like you didn't like that thought of the Mother-in-law moving in LOL

I love love love using ground driving on my colts. Far before they take on a rider. It helps build up their confedence and makes riding easier and let's you feel them out. How their work attitude will be like for under saddle as well.

What is funny is it seems like every place has a name for the sled they pull lol ours is old blue lol use it lots gettin cows up with calf problems I just tie off on my horn hog tie the calf in the sled and holler load up to my old paint and he heads for the trailer and I can bring up the rear on foot if the cow is unsure

Another great show. I hope y'll ste happy Easter. Miss more shows. Great job y'll

Excellent video. You show the mistakes as well as the successes! I have been driving, mostly Morgan horses in all divisions. I have driven all of our horses and love to see people doing that with their horses! Good for you! If you want to contact me I would be glad to give you some tips that could make your process easier and safer.

If you had used 2 ropes, one on either side tied with quick release knots to the breast collar it would have simulated what was to come. In addition when you work with the lines off to the side and you in the center it is called long lining. When you are working from behind it is ground driving. I do hour and hours of long lining. When I "hitch" them for the first few times I use a rubber tire. If they get to bouncing around, no one gets hurt. I also work in my round pen for the first few times they pull anything. Your having a lunge line on her with someone else there was a master stroke. I always do that outside the round pen!

Absolutely love the channel

Draft breeds are so much easier to train for driving! They built the world before vehicles! The thousands of years of using horses, dating back even before the Romans and the Draft breeds being specifically used for driving, just have this bred into them! Like a great cow horse has cattle sense! It's great seeing you doing this, regardless of breed! I think you should buy some great Percherons! We could help you with that!

You helper was blocking her at 9:45 saying stop with his body. She got confused. In europe we start with dragging a tyre so if they step back they don't hurt themselves.

I like ol snort👍👍 those go pros sure put a whole new perspective on teaching, good job better than most any I’ve seen!

I like to see that you don't have blinkers/blinders on her.

Great video Mr. Richard. I agree with you on showing affection. I think they learn alot quicker when they are offered affection immediately after the release of pressure. I have found that if only a release of pressure is offered and you assume they figured out what you wanted, it may be easily overlooked a few minutes later because the were never assured by me that they really had done something correctly. That is a very nice colt and a very nice facility you are working at.

Hello! Thanks for watching!!

When you first started to drive her if you had started out with a halter or a plain bridle without the blinders on she wouldn’t have been so confused if she could have seen you then added the harness bridle after she understood what was going on. Also when you were driving her before you hooked her to the log it would have been better for her if you had dropped the trace chains down n just drove her around dragging the trace chains. I know that u had ropes around her feet n her butt but its different when you have the trace chains dragging behind her slapping her sides n back feet. The chains can make a lot of noise. After she got use to the chains dragging behind her, then hook her to the log.

You really provide quality content, thank you! ---I just have one question: Why do you start the filly so young? If I got it right, she was saddle broke at two years old getting ready to pull a wagon as a three year old. I'm wondering cause I'm used to starting horses when they're between four and five years old.

mule skinner - yes, Yes, YES! You are so right. prep., Prep., PREP.

Nearly all horses can be a saddle horse, but a good harness horse is far more rare. When riding, you're up-close with the horse, But a driving horse must be both docile and brave. A single driving horse is up front and all alone, with it's head 10 or 12 feet in front of you in the buggy. So, a good forward-moving driving horse must have courage and confidence, but still be docile.

Do you have any info on the wade at your right shoulder ?

Be a great way to start QH break to driving like a SB and have an extra 6to12 months work on them make an awesome horse.

Hi there! I am from SA and i am also 13 now. I just want to know ho w can I learn my horse not to be scared of the hose when I want to wash her? She is very gentle but does not like to be washed. Would appreciate it very much. Like your show by the way!

Have you tried rubbing the hose against her while its turned off? you will need to ease her into it and do it for a few minutes each day and then build her confidence up and into being hosed down. When she's comfortable with the hose being rubbed against her then you can turn it on a bit and start at her hooves and make your way up. If you see she's getting tense then you should turn it off / take it off her and talk to her and calm her down, that way you are reassuring her that this isn't gonna hurt her... don't know if that made any sense but good luck :)

I second l of what Rachel said, along with turning the hose to a very slow trickle, horses really don't like the hissing sound of a hose. Looks like a snake, which is a big deal to a horse

@baypeppard2565

Also once you get get used to the hose and get it on start at the feet and slowly go up

would have started he r in a breast-strap harness (light harness) first to get her going well first. Breeching isn't necessary unless you are going downhill or backing up. I wouldn't stand behind her, either - you can drive her from the center (like longeing) with the outside line over her back. This way you can easily start, stop, or change directions without moving around so much and tiring yourself out.

My apologies for doubling up the comment. I looked at this film again a day ago and my comment was missing, so I re-posted it. Blow my down.....there are two posts up there today. Oops!

For anyone who is not very horse oriented. What happened when he first hooked the log up was when he asked her to move forward she was slightly confused and turned. Horses are not use to us being behind them. She then felt trapped because of the strap pushing into her. That in turned caused a reaction to get away. The only thing I have to say. I felt she was a little rushed. It looked like she rode nice and moved fluidly. She was confused on the ground and I personally would of spent all the time in the world on the ground. It gives horses a better foundation.

I agree, more line driving before hitching to weight. Also we always have more contact with the lines and use a driving whip as an aid.
