Hello. I just wanted to express my gratitude towards you for sharing your knowledge with us. Since I've been watching your videos about "matching steps", I could catch my horse for the first time peacefully in his paddock and in the pasture. This was impossible before or at least very stressful. I also love how open you are about your own journey and about how your horsemanship has been evolving over the years. Keep up this beautiful work. Thank you. Greetings from Belgium! Manon
I love watching how fast the horse settles with Warrick, who seemingly did very little . I’ve seen this before with good horse trainers.
I really appreciate these videos, thank you for the work you are doing!
My horse tries to stick his head intge bucket when im over the fence and he doesnt leave me alone until he has his food, do i do what she did in this video or something different?
This is not an anxious horse，looking forward to see how he deal with anxious horses
I never went to get my horses, I stood at the gate called and they came and went into their stalls by themselves
Can’t wait to get another horse and help people like you do xx
Quite often, the person trying to train their horse creates the problem that they try to get rid of afterwards, so when they come to Warwick's clinics with a ''problem horse'' that needs training, they find out they themselves are the one that needs training XD I'm in love with this series! Keep up the good work :)
This is so interesting and it seems like when one is working on farms no one is patient enough for a horse to gather their thoughts and relax. Folks want to “chase”. Thanks for the “pause” with your method. In addition, love that square block and ball metaphor you used….you get further if you take the time.
Yes just like with humans, if you never let yourself eat cake and then find yourself at an all you can eat buffet of cake, its going to take a lot to just walk by it the whole time without eating any😅
Thank you for communicating this to us humans! We need to hear it. Also because of our nature, we assume that the animal knows we are going to give the foot back……why would they know that. 😞
Wish I had been there for that.
My horse wont let me touch his head or muzzle
Watch the horse’s ears. It had no idea the cat was coming.
So good! So many applications to life.
Yeah, you try that on a Shire horse, putting your arm over their neck is not really an option. Shires are super tall and have a relatively short neck.
but yet they can eat grass on the ground...Ive never seen a horse with a neck so short it couldn't reach the ground. You ahve to ask yourself, "why won't my head put his head down around me".
Very nice.
You gave him time. You let him process his environment, his ‘feelings’, the fact that no one was pressuring him. Everyone is always in a hurry and sometimes you have to slow down. “Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.” I love the example in the pic you saw. It’s what I always say and no one will even try - in some situations if you take a little longer to ‘re-do’ something right now it saves time and is more efficient from then on.
🤯🤯🤯
My boy take forever and hardly pause. He so greedy
Most stallions need to be gelded, but for the select few that have the breeding potential to remain intact, it's so important for them to be socialized and interact with other horses when they are young.
A horse's security is in his feet. Simple sentence that says a lot.
Extraordinary empathy for horses and people. Thank you for your wonderful videos.
❤
I'm happy you posted this. Sometimes this exercise really does feel like it's going no where, but the fact that you dedicated almost 2 hours to doing it just for the results you wanted prove that it's worth the long haul.
Can we see the whole session?
No, the clips you saw are the only ones I vieod, but as I said in this video, I have footage on the process here on KZread, and many full length sessions like this one, on my website
I love your teachings! Thank you for being here for us!
I'm bummed I didn't make it to this clinic! I drove 6 hours one way to see you last time at the MN horse expo in 2019 and was way worth it, my non horsey boyfriend was also very intrigued by Warwaick's ways! 😊
What if you can't catch them in the pasture with the herd? 3:52
You do the "Creating connection" exercise until they come to you. Doesn't matter where they are or who they are with. If you stick with it, it WILL work. Maybe not the first day or even the first week. But that is the point Warwick is making. Stick with the process, for as long as it takes, and the results will come.
I have 2 of 5 horses in a huge field. It DOES take a long time for my introverted mare to notice me. But now she only steps away a few steps. Such an exercise in patience. I have been working on this for two years. Of course, I am the one that is learning!
Thanks once again for sharing!
My god this video needs to be sent to all horse owners! Most people I know, including myself would have interpreted the backing up and pawing as evasion! I feel so bad now 😭😭😅 wish I’d seen this years ago.
Honestly I would watch the whole two hours of that! Would love to hear your commentary whilst working with her.
Op just noticed they’re all on the website! Good stuff
After an hour and fifteen minutes, the young foal eased on itself enough to start notice. Started to see the world beyond confinement of the tunnel vision. Infinite worth in investing the time and effort to go through this process. This builds up the confident and thinking horse. This way they learn to learn for themselves. Skipping this would leave a horse more prone to their inclination towards panic and acting impulsively.
Agree! If more trainers embraced this concept there would be a lot more confident horses staying in homes they get sold into instead of being passed around.
YES! I get that all the time…..the first hour I am the one that doesn’t work on the problem people brought their horses to me for, and they start pawing the ground and after I am some sort of miracle worker:)))
OH this ignorance drives me mad. THEY WERE BRED TO CONSTANTLY LOOK OUT FOR THE ENEMY. Get it? Yes they are skittish and sensitive as a result. They were also bred to socialize with people, having to sleep in the damn tent with them. To keep trying to get their attention is foreign to their frigging DNA. And cruel. If you want a spiritless ghost of a horse then get an overtrained broken quarter horse. That's a fine example of man's idea of a submissive and totally obedient working horse. Don't you just love how low they hold their heads? Real spirit there buddy. There's 2 kinds of horse people. Those who love horses.. And those who love what the horse can do for them. One is true love, the other is disgusting selfish narcissistic vanity and pride. I'm sick of this shit. Ignorance is not bliss, it's just frigging cruel to the horse. Now, have a nice day. 😀
I wanted to see her try to put it into practice. Other than that, awesome. I wonder if I can apply this to my dog.
😊
This is great. But what does one do when you want the horse to stand still on grass and not keep trying to get its head down to eat?
Great demo! Loved the whole weekend.
After the zoomies and dirt sniffing you were the only thing left to investigate.
I thought the same thing, but I think the idea is that even though this way is slower, and you could get the same result with pressure and release much faster, in the long run this method means you have a stronger bond with the horse because you didn’t pressure them to get the result.
@@Usnozulo12 The horse's demeanor was what a younger horse would show towards an older one. Approaching with respect and tagging along to see what's happening.
My good friend Dale said she met you at the Mn horse expo. Love her Masterson Method of body massage for horses and now I hope to follow you.
Haflingers don't pause very often when it comes to eating 😂
Yes!! Can everyone plz share this?! I cringe every time I see handlers pulling & jerking on their horses head. That’s so disrespectful to the horse AND painful. Thank you WS!
Great video IF the horse is generally allowed to eat grass... Otherwise (obese ponies with high laminitis risk or actual laminitis), one has to go into the power struggle... As I had to do with my own haflinger mare, but I did it the nicest way possible and it did not hurt our relationship... She simply knows: whenever the halter is on, she is only allowed to eat anything fillowing a signal...❤
To me it is strictly scandalous that people with such brainless impatience are even allowed to get a mustang
Listening to you in awe, realising how different, yet similar we horse lovers are - really helped me in current thought of mind situation. Will be working on suggestions and looking forward to positive inner thought results as well as working with my horses with new perspective.
This is a great example of how when training is done right, it should look like absolutely nothing is happening. No huge overreactions because you pushed them too far, no human temper tantrums, nothing drastic and flashy: instead just peaceful teaching and learning at the horse's pace. No matter if you're halter training or top of your sport, if the first time you do something it doesn't look like the hundredth time that horse has done it, you've gone too fast for their understanding
What if you’re riding and eats grass?
Then you do the same thing
They dont fight? I had an attack mustang that would violently disagree with that.
I said their first response is flight. Was this mustang in a pen where he couldn't run away? Or was he out on 100,000 acres of BLM land and choose to come toward you?
@WarwickSchiller he was in a 10 acre pasture, he was just insane. He was on sight with every human he saw. My guess is how he was captured, he was born wild. The mare I had, from the same herd, was his polar opposite and checked him every time or someone would have ended up underground.
Yes for any horse! This is especially true for rescues. My mustang was "simple" compared to the rescues I've adopted who had issues created by people. He had a natural progression, feet last!
