    Thank you for wearing a helmet, thank you for addressing the rope around the hand thing, thank you for coming right out and talking about how transferable your work is to someone else -- in this case not really. I know you've said numerous times that the owner has a history, whereas you don't, so the owner can't do what you do and expect the same results. But in this case, Charlotte doesn't have a history with the horse either, and yet she still had big problems. ALWAYS learn so much from your videos. Thank you! Btw, if it's possible to keep us updated on this horse, that would be wonderful. ❤

    Brilliant video ... yes he is a beautiful gelding and so unfortunate Charlotte was frightened of him. As you demonstrated, the gelding's unruly behaviour is clearly connected to the lack a leadership ... he hasn't had the proper leadership needed for a long time, if ever. Some people are very competent at handling and riding horses, when the horse is trained and behaviours are predictable and respectful in nature ... but not everyone is comfortable with their own skills to handle outside of that box. He's just a work in progress and given time he'd become manageable. Mindset is also important for people, as horses pick up on that ... and fear will trigger any mammal, when they mammal considers itself on the lower end of the food chain. I think it's amazing what you were able to do with him in such a short period of time ... as you say you rush things a lot faster than you'd normally do, due to time constraints and the purpose for these videos. Can you imagine this gelding when living day in and day out on a environment with leadership, where time is taken to work on the basic ground training!?! Very sad ... a missed opportunity for that horse. It seems in most cases it's the handler/owner that needs to be worked on ... not the horse.

    I always think people buy horses without really knowing what to do with them. some let ship them over hundreds of km not guiding them and overview the transport. and the don't watch the quarantine which especially for GB is needed - and good so. I hope this nice horse can get a place where he is save. thanks for showing again what can be possible if the owner would recognize he/she is the problem not the horse.

    Learned tons! The discipline to remain clear headed and calm while not lowering your standard. (Thinking here of the work with the mounting block, if the hindquarters swung even just a bit, you asked again.) Also watching this horse work through the sound of the applause. Wanting to use you as a foal would it’s mom, remembering (&being reminded) that is not allowed anymore. To eventually, politely and respectfully reaching out to muzzle you. Getting some reassurance in an acceptable manner. He even began to be curious about the applause. Wonderful horse revealed by your abilities. Thanks.

    He's just like my last horse whose behaviour, however, was a result of being sistematically tortured. It took a year to get him to not be so defensive but the partnership we had was unique. If I hadn't bought him he was going to the butchers as he literally attacked people especially in the stable. Seeing this feisty beauty made me very emotional. I just wanted him. Sadly I live in Italy, need to re-do ALL my fencing etc so logistically I know it's a dream but I'm so worried as to how/where he'll end up that I feel quite broken hearted.

    Steve your authenticity, including your family's (Charlotte & Tanya,) has a calming effect on your audience too! I must admit, I was sweating through this one, and you demonstrate how different we are as leaders & how that affects our relationship with our animals. The fact that Charlotte had to struggle to return this horse to barn, shows how even lifelong, experienced horse folk aren't always accepted as leader. There are horses (folk & animals,) who just aren't willing to trust & it takes a certain rare personality, sheer courage (or perhaps foolhardiness) to be a match for such a creature. It's just as important to know our own limitations as our strengths & I admire Charlotte's willingness to openly express her self-doubt! Kudos to you all!

    It was amazing what you accomplished with this horse in such a short time.. But the fact that it didn't transfer to his behavior walking back to the stable means that the horse needs hours and hours more work to become safe to be around.

    I agree - but think it poses a different dilemma: should people own horses who don't understand this way of relating to them. The way that ensures they're happy and understood rather than available to comply regardless of how unsure, nervous or potentially scared they are. This sounds radical but there are too many horses for too many owners who just can't keep them in what I believe are base humane conditions. Sadly the same goes for dogs. An owner could actually learn a vast amount of knowledge to help on a practical daily level from attending just a day's course in natural horsemanship. If there are huge problems then maybe a specialist is needed - in the same way that some dog owners need to visit an animal behaviourist (who often is really an human behaviourist!) I personally feel that if we're going to keep animals for pleasure or work then it's our responsibility to make sure they don't suffer psychologically. Sadly many of our "traditional" teachings are based on domination with no or minimal attempt at working with the psychology and organic nature of the animal we're working with.

It gives the animal such quality of life! I am so grateful people like you that use your talent to help the animal. Humans need to be trained before they get a horse, so the poor horse doesn’t feel like walking on egg shells around inept owners, thank you. Fantastic video like all others.

    I had a Connemara when I was training for my BHS exams. Some idiot roared up beside me in a red sports car on the road, during a hack. The pony was splashed under the belly and jumped right over the car bonnet! How stupid can you be? The guy followed me back to the stables. He tried to get me to pay for a dent to his car. I Whilst he was ranting and shouting at me I wrote an invoice for my professional time in putting right the damage he had caused to my well trained pony. He backed down when he realised how much putting the pony right would cost him. She eventually took 6months to recover. I reported the driver. He had abused the pony and broken the law by driving dangerously. Respect to the work with this pretty pony, Steve. Such a challenge but patience and persistence does work so well. Brilliant result. Thank you so much. Love your videos

When Charlotte told her dad how scary it was leading this horse back to the stable it really hit home how dangerous he is as Charlotte has the equivalent of a PHD (doctorate in America not sure about UK equivalent) in horsemanship having her dad as a teacher all her years. When she doesn’t want to take on a horse it puts in perspective how amazing Steve is as he made this horse seem like just a “green” horse (American term I haven’t heard Steve use). I was rooting for her to say yes, but immediately understood when she said no. This video is a year old that I’m watching for the first time. I hope this horse is one of the “lucky” ones who can find a person willing to take the time it takes, so it takes less time (Pat Parelli quote) if he finds anyone at all.😞 Steve and family you have taught me so much in just 4 weeks of discovering your videos.

    Steve I really gained knowledge from your work with this horse. As my German Hanoverian Mare is becoming quite a pushy teeth biting nasty Mare. I have now gained understanding how to stop these bad manners from my Mare. I would really like to train her as she is now 10 and due to my physical problems she wasn't trained at a younger age. If you have a video in this type situation I'd love to see it. Your videos are great and thank you sincerely.

    Brilliant transformation. Regarding this horse wanting to lie down, I follow Warwick Schiller as well, who has very similar background and method to you and he does clinics all over the world. He has demonstrated that in more severe cases that the really difficult equines have so much tension and rigidity in their bodies and have held these self-protective postures for so long that when someone helps them relax they become exhausted and will lie down and sleep for hours while the clinic carries on running. I’ll bet this horse spent the next couple of days sleeping. Always so interesting - thank you.

    Yes, I think this an interesting thing that almost happened - in the horse wanting to lie or roll at least get off its feet. Seems a kind of expression of trust/release maybe ??

    I saw the same Warwick Schiller video that you mention. It was truly amazing. After Warwick had worked with a tense, very nervous clinic horse for some time, that horse lay down flat in the middle of the arena, while the other clinic students and their horses worked all around him and he stayed there and slept for hours. And Warwick let him. At that point, he realized that the horse had trusted him with leadership. The horse was exhausted by his tension, mentally and physically. He had come to the end of his tether. So he was finally able to take the chance of being eat, and lay down and trusted his existence to Warwick. By contrast, I don’t think that this gray horse that Steve worked with had reached that same point. Perhaps he was even more fearful than a horse in Warwick’s clinic? It’s hard to compare apples to oranges, but I really loved that video because I had never seen anything like it before.

He doesn't try to run me over but he does like to take you where he wants to go, super valuable video for me. Love his color and spirit, too bad his owner doesn't have the time to invest in such a beautiful animal, he would be so worth it in the end. I would love to transport him across the "pond", but do not have the funds to do that. Hope he finds the right home and new owner! 🤠 Renee and Brewster in Colorado!

    It's so true that the horses that needs the most work often turns out the best ones. I think that working with the easy ones, It's also easy to slip up and let them do more what they want to because we tend to get a bit lazy around them. A horse like this hammers the rules in with you as you know the concequences of slipping up can be so dangerous. Too bad for the horse that You couldn't take him on, but I understand it would not be possible with Charlotte feeling so unsafe around him.

    What a little superstar. He's such a lovely gelding who has so much potential... if things don't work for him and his owner, please take him on ❤ I'm sorry to hear he frightened Charlotte. It kind of sounds like he needs to keep repeating this sort of thing daily for quite some time with different people to build his trust in humans properly. He reminds me quite a lot of my little pony who was sadly beaten when younger. But with the right leadership, he grew to be pretty much bombproof (unless a bird flew out of a tree in front of him 😂), and he ended up giving numerous young riders the confidence they so desperately needed.
