Teaching vs aggression ! Less is more. Don't interfere with the horse's thought ! Superb !!!
Thank you
This worked on my BLM mustang during the first session. He was following me around the pen after this with no rope. It felt great to see him make that decision.
I have trained six horses since 2012. I’ve watched a lot of videos. I have learned sooooooo much! I feel that I have not trained any horse very well. They are rideable but reactionary at times, they hold their heads up high, and have poor stop. But it’s amazing to me how you have a different perspective that is absolutely logical! I have a 15 year old Appaloosa that I got last fall that is full of fear. He’s reactive, flighty, pulls back, rears, and shows zero confidence. I cannot wait for the -40 temps to move up so I can put to use the tips I’ve learned from watching you.
Thanks for sharing, glad your enjoying these videos. Let me know if you end up needing any help with that Appaloosa.
I absolutely will. Thanks!
I recently hired a trainer to help me with my rescue mare. She's teaching me what to do as much as my mare. I just started watching your videos and you train exactly the same as her! It's so amazing to watch! Thank you.
I love that you share your mistakes so others can avoid them.
phew, at last. This is exactly what I was looking for. I want to move on with my 3 1/2 year old and unsure how to do this. Thankyou.
Really like this guys approach, always using a green horse . Now , we need to do a fundraiser for him a buy him better fitting jeans !
😂 thanks
Just watched this for probably the seventh time. So much good instruction here. Thanks.
Brilliant insight on really connecting with your horse.
I have used this video with our colts and they all come and follow us everywhere I don’t don’t use treats either they want to be with me because I changed my mind set and I lead them to safety and calmness
Horse sense instead of nonsense..well played sir
Thank you
You're welcome Mr. Rose, your time and effort are much appreciated by those of us who seek a deeper understanding. Good luck and God's peace to you.
My horse follows me around and won't stop. I figured it'd be easier to teach because he never chooses to leave my side in the round pen. But I can't get him to do the close circle he just thinks I'm sending him back to the outside like a normal lunge. I'm lost
great horsman and great teacher
Wow! This blows my mind! Whole new way of round pen work! Thank you for showing us this!
Wow I never liked watching Trainers working a Horse in a Round Pen . Until Now ! So timely in my life with my New Colt coming . This introduction is exactly what I needed . Thank you again Ryan ! 💜🐴💜Laura 🇺🇸
Every time I watch one of your videos, I can't wait to get off work and head to the barn!!! I got a pregnant mare and now her baby. Mama is NOT dead broke as I was told, but we are FINALLY making huge progress from all these little baby steps. I can't thank you enough for these videos!!! ❤️
Thanks Ryan. This is so awesome. I have a horse that has been difficult to get his respect and build a bond. This has made a HUGE difference and he is now following me around the big pasture.
One of my favorite videos Ryan I am highly interested in learning Liberty with my early 5 PRE mare.she is already such a on people pleasing girl. Very bright
This isn't the way I learned to train. It's so much better! Thank you !
I watched this video yesterday morning; went to work my challenging mare in the afternoon. Found per usual my mare ignoring me and watching her buddies in the “mare pasture”. I “took her spot” once and from then on she was paying attention and “connected”. THANK YOU! All those wasted days in the past😞Starting my patreon account with Ryan Rose now…
This is Everything! Well Played
Thanks 👍👌
Great information and you break it down so nicely as well so us novices can understand! Love it! Thank you!
Thanks
yes yes yes thank you so much. I have 3 two year olds and 9 mothonth old this will help greatly
Thank you for clearly saying what you are doing. I understand this!
I tried this today and it worked perfectly with my gelding. So happy, because we have struggled with him leaving the fence and wanting to be close to me.
Nicely done
I use your advice from this video with my horse and it is working . Thank you. I also used your technique to learn my horse how to park at the mounting block and he understood immediately. Amazing!
Awesome, great to hear
@@ryanrosehorsemanship I have watched a many videos from many horse trainers on internet. And I can say, you are really the best :-) Your techniques are the most effective and good for horses as well, they understand very well. I was almost frustratied, that my horse do not want to stand still at the mounting block. Your video showed me, how to do it in a better way. Thank you very very much!
Wow....how I wish I knew this years ago!!!
Love this. Thanks
Perfect! Cant wait to try this!
Love it ✨✨
Awesome!!
This was fantastic!
Love it!! Thanks for sharing
Thanks a lot for this information 🤠👍. It was working with a horse that I met at the first time!
Awesome stuff 😎
Thanks for a great demo!
Love your videos, I’m learning so much.👏👍
Excellent Ryan! Thank You! ❤
I really enjoy your videos. I appreciate your approach to training and relieving pressure and it makes sense. Thank you!
That is the best lesson
Yes, very effective, thanks for sharing love the connection :-)
Great info! Easy to understand.🤠 Thank you for sharing, Ryan!
Solid gold 😄
Excellent! Can’t wait to try this. We only have hillside paddocks for our two 3 1/2 - 4 year olds that we are starting.
Great stuff.
Hey!! THIS WORKS!!
Good job love it
Thanks
That as the best you real know your stuff 👍 fantastic
So glad that I found your videos . One of the best round pen videos I have seen . Is there any way of doing this in a square/ rectangular pen ?
Wow. Great. I learned something new❣️ Thanks
This is an underrated technique
Have not seen how to do this. I have some changes to make going out to play now!! Thanks!
Wow!!
Hi Ryan great great video thank you so much. You said she has been in training for a couple of weeks before this session, was all that training basic ground work sensitising/desensitise, move the hind quarter forequarter etc etc? Thank you.Ben
Mate! this was brilliant. do you have any follow up or training videos that I can purchase with the liberty training, I still think this is the ultimate in horsemanship.
Iv been watching video after video an final found one that i can agree with an makes sense to unexperienced(want to be ) young horse owner
My daughter just bought a warm blood 9mo old filly. I found you on KZhead and shared with her. We are both huge fans now. How large is your round pen. Thank you!
I know this exercise is to convince the horse that you are the herd leader and should be followed. Can two people be herd leaders? So if I do this successfully with my horse, could my husband then do it another day and get the same respect? and then would my horse still respect me as leader? And vice-versa for me and his horse? We both ride both horses.
Yeah definitely, should be even easier for the second person. 👍👌
@@ryanrosehorsemanship Thank you for responding Ryan!
Round pen reasoning, learned it from John Lyons decades ago
Hi Ryan, GREAT video. Could you explain your reference to 10%/not 5%?
That's a great video, thank you! I have a question: how do you creat personal space after that? Once again thanks from Israel 🤠
Hi. Is this the approach you'd do on the first day of gentling an unbroke horse and then start with roundpening? I ask because this is very different to what I know about estableshing leadership with a horse on the first day. I'm glad to have found your channel.
Yeah but this isn’t where I would start with a mustang.
She is absolutely gorgeous and very willing and smart. She’s very similar in colour, stature and personality to a snowflake appaloosa I owned 40 years ago 🙁🖤💔
Hi, I know I'm late to the party 😂 ..... but how would you go about doing this if you only had access to a full size arena, not a round pen?
Curious - who was the dog trainer you were working with?
Should I do this before any other trying
I'm trying to find your video on the three circle game, but am not seeing it. Would you comment a link to it?
This worked on my dumb mustang. If he can figure it out, any horse can. It took two swats on the ground in his space to make him figure out I was the safe spot. Spectacular stuff right here. I feel like my boy understands this much better than running him in circles. (disclaimer: of course I love my mustang lmao. He's not dumb. Just way too smart and dominant for his own good)
Lol i have a mustang too. And i laughed when u called yours dumb bc i know you know they are super smart 😂
What kind of “covered buildings” don’t you have in the background?.. I am looking for a covered building for a arena
Ryan, I tried this with a horse I have had for 4 years, a highly sensitive Andalusian, and he would turn and keep me within his field of vision, usually within 10-13ft away....does not come to me.... anything I should change or try?
I’ve tried this with my horse, but she tends to just look at me and really give me her attention but from a far. I don’t want her to think she can also rest away from me, but I don’t necessarily want to reward her while being away from me. How can I go about correcting this?
I offer video coaching through my patreon page. www.patreon.com/ryanrosehorsemanship if your interested
I really like this way of creating a connection. My new 3 year old is pretty left brain, and can appear dull and unresponsive. Of course, she isn't dull and unresponsive . This worked great, though I struggled with not giving her a rub or scratch. But making a program of it , so 3 or 4 days did you recommend?
👍👌
Curious to know if in a wild or natural herd, if a dominant (alpha) horse claimed a particular spot would the submissive horse then keep very close to the dominant horse in the way shown in the video? Wouldn’t they wander off elsewhere. So is it more a matter of this technique shows the horse there’s only one safe place where the human doesn’t come at you and it’s next to the human? I’m always interested to know what is really happening to fully understand training methods.
Following the dominant horse or facing it - at a respectful distance - is what you will see unless the horses are spread out.
I’m curious about how this works when we are always leaving and re joining the herd, how do we establish ourselves as the alpha as soon as we arrive in the field? Is this just through time and controlled work on the relationship to build respect so the horse will want to approach?
I don't think that's the point of this fundamental step. It's foundational to the next steps in training.
Horses in the wild establish leadership and sometimes reminders are needed just as with foals and mothers.
Hey Ryan. What would you do if horse was difficult to face or look at you. Took 4 days but now keeps looking at me constantly, won’t ever walk or turn away but won’t come to the middle. Put him online?
I have this issue too. My horse will run away and then face up never taking their eyes off me after I claim their spot. #RyanRose Recommendations?
Love me some balance, non p+ training
Thanks
What would you have done at 7:15 if she would have stayed defensive? Thanks!! for making this.
I tried this, and my horse wishes I was you.
Test: Once that horse if following you around all hooked up...SCREAM jump straight into the air and take off running...lol if they follow...you are alpha
These are interesting concepts...I'd like to know who Mr. Roses mentor is , from whom did he learn these ideas... and don't say i learned from the horse...LOL...assuming he did not invent these himself).
I created this particular technique with help from Debbie Adcock and Doug Jordan
@@ryanrosehorsemanshipThanks Mr. Rose.. It is very unique. I'll try that technique to get "JOIN-UP"...LOL...it was way cool.
Mr. Rose I ride a 16 y/o mustang gelding that I started at 2 y/o. We have a good deal going. I didn't know if he would ignore me or what...3 times taking the area and he was hooked on...I'll be darned...
@@johnalcorn2967 good work!
I get confused with this process compared to, own the space to keep them away and the “stay” not tied to a post.
Ryan can I ask, I have taken on a horse to retrain for a owner, the horse run her over has complete disrespect- he is not a genuine horse. The owner is now getting shitty with me as I have told her that even after training this horse with not be suitable for her. I don’t want to lie to her and say this horse (which has already been through three trainers) is going to be this loving pet she wants it to be. How would you approach this, would you stay with honesty what you assess this horse to be or tell her what she wants to hear, lying to her doesn’t sit well with me. I am not saying he is not trainable, he is is very over reactive, major drama queen over s things, nots scared just reactive , aggressive and she allows it. I would love to here your opinion.
Should it be a concern that her ears were pinned back that last time she went around you?
Do less first is so important. I worked for a handicapped gentleman as barn manager on his running horse breeding operation. He had absolutely no horse sense at all. Tried to keep him away from the barn. He was great at bloodlines and salesmanship. But he always wanted to start a fight first with a horse. I might be working with a head shy horse and he's yelling for me to just tie their nose right down to the fence and of course the horse would go ballistic. I had to fix several horses because his idea of controlling them was to grab their ear and ear them down.
We need to stop making ourselves a part of the herd ( a bunch of BS!!! ). We are owner’s and trainers not a part of the herd. Do i always want my horse in my space … HELL NO!!! Do my horse have to follow me around the yard … HELL NO!!! When horses get away from another they do one or two things they choose to come back to the herd for whatever reason or they’re called by another horse or horses. Teach your horse to come when called Use verbal communication ( a cluck , a whistle or a simple come on ) He also stated he didn’t want to show u guys with a horse that knows but on the contrary he’s been working with that horse 2 or 3 weeks
