This is why I do what I do…
These 2… 🥰🥰🥰
He’s always been a bit of a ‘special’ boy! 🫣🤣 And I won’t lie, he’s a lot!! lol I take my hat off to his human 🧢 💪🏻💪🏻
He’s a whole lot of horse who decides what he does and when, he also knows he is strong enough to do so lol
Yes he had some anxiety, yes he had some bad habits… but no he’s not a ‘bad’ horse… he’s a horse that was never set up properly… and has been doing what he thinks he needs to to survive… and let’s be honest, kinda bluffing his way thru lol
Yes he threw himself on the float floor… (much to his owners panic/stress!)
No I didn’t create this lol he literally cracked the 💩 s went off and ended up slipping (yes it happens people! It’s NOT the end of the world) what is bad is not then continuing on with what is being asked…
So that he doesn’t think his over reaction is how he gets relief…
‘Just because its traumatic, doesn’t mean it’ll create trauma’
To say he was slightly annoyed at being asked back on was OMG 😧 in his mind was an understatement lol he actually went in a lot better!
Was he easy? Hell no!!
Was he spicy? You better believe it!! 😬😬
Once we worked thru it all did his mind completely change?? You better believe it!!!
It’s about building that confidence up to get the end result..
I had actually been called out because he was rushing out… but it’s amazing what happens when you ask horses things, like really ask them, one problem will go away completely and an entirely new one will show its face…
I don’t think he ever actually rushed off once when we worked with him… and this is why I say, ‘How they load, is how they will come off at the other end’ the rushing off was a symptom of the cause!!! The rushing was because he was not okay with loading!!!
But together, his human and I worked thru everything!! And to see the msgs of actually being able to go out to riding clubs etc and come home (on the same day lol 🤣😂) makes my heart singggg!!!!
Did we have to work out a way that ‘works’ for them? You better believe it!!! Most people would see it as being rushed, but for him and his owner it’s what they need to get it done, think organised chaos!! lol 😂 will it become better the more it’s done?? Bloody oath!!!
But this is why, this is why I love what I do, I know how crippling it can be, how devastating it is… to have a horse that won’t load/loads when it wants to!
(I’ve speed the videos up lol, but you get the idea lol misses all the really spicy stuff 😩🤣😂 )
***this is only a small snippet of the work I and his owner did!!!
But I honestly I take my hat off to people willing to open their minds and bite that bullet and ask for help!! You guys?! You guys are my people!!!
