Did not take her long to realize she is not boss. I just enjoy how you take the anger or emotion out of your correction. Just consistency.

[octoberjubilee]

Loved how she reconsidered when you dropped the mounting block around the 3:10 mark but then onto the next strategy, not paying attention. By the videos end, Cupcake's attitude is much improved and since you've first started working with her, she's moving so much better in the hind. Can't wait to see her finished product!

I commend the owners for asking for help and not giving up so easily. With a bit of retraining, I bet she’ll be a willing partner, although she’ll probably need consistency and reprimanding with any negative actions.
Thank you for sharing. 💖💕

Disciplining a broke horse at the right time is definitely not abuse. Glad you are helping tge owners with Cupcake. First time owners can get upside down with a horse, even a well trained one real quick. You will be able to guide them thru the steps and hopefully they will be able to pickup on reading their mares behavior from the ground and in the saddle. It will also help them with the young are on a journey....but in the right direction!

Once they learn they can boss you around and they feel like the boss it can be scary. It is the little things we let go or ignore that turn into big things. This will make the horse better and give the owners the knowledge to deal with this girl effectively. Thanks for sharing a video that shows how to be firm but fair for a safe respectful horse

She acts as every single Haflinger we have here in the north of Germany. Pretty good horses as long as you are very straight with them. And very dangerous if you try the I love my pony way.

[jackien]

A bit of discomfort is better than dead. You are indeed saving her life. I'm glad her owners recognized they needed help and reached out. That mare is lucky they care enough about her to try to solve the problem.

[catherinebryant]

i have seen this scenario before and the mare is in a different mellow state when she is pregnant, than when they aren't in foal they are a whole different horse

[emilyspalding]

I have an Australian shepherd & have learned a lot about how to deal with her undesirable behaviors from watching your videos. Thank you for explaining the 'why' of you being so hard on this horse & also pointing out that you are going to be just as nice as you are demanding. It's all about balance.

I’m trying to watch every video you have on pushy behavior … this is our 3rd horse but I still feel
Like a new owner/ we have a Horse that seemed very sweet. He’s unbelievably confident, but that’s not a good thing. It’s because he just doesn’t care about anybody else lol but he does a lot of these behaviors in the videos and I thought maybe he was hurting but now I realize he’s just trying to push us around. I have worked with him. I haven’t let him get away with things, but he definitely continues to push in every area and he does so many of the things that you’ve shown in these different videos of pushy horses thank you for these. I’m praying I’ll be able to solve his issues so it doesn’t get worse

Purchased haflinger few months ago after she rode perfectly on trail ride. Got her home she was a pushy nightmare on the ground and in the saddle she bucked, bolted, spooked and was anything but pleasant to ride. She was in her late teens but not settled but very smart. Farrier had a hard time with back feet had to use a war bridle. The final straw vet came over to give vaccinations and the mare body slammed her against the stall wall although she was not hurt. Vet said return her and I did. Owners took her back and sent me video of her behaving nicely on trail ride. I won’t ever own a haflinger again and thankful she didn’t hurt anyone. This mares initial behavior in video exactly like mine. Good job straightening her out

[annieoakslee]

When my horse had her foal she wouldnt let us ride her anymore...had my vet check her and he said from pushing so hard during labor she put her body out of alignment..Had our local chiropractor adjust her and after a few weeks she was back to normal

[lazygardens]

At 3:30 it's the horse version of covering your ears and chanting "I can't hearrr yooouuuu!"

[arribaficationwineho]

My father called her taking advantage of inexperienced owners as being “buffaloed”. She knows how to be ridden but knows she can control the owner.

[Alex-horsman]

I did the same with some of my horses and they became better, they changed, but still I was thinking that I did something wrong, now I see that I did all correct!! Thanks!

[zareena]

Brilliant, clear training. Thank you for making these videos for us!

[amymcewen]

I’m a new horse owner and my older gal is trying to have her way with me. Gotten worse over time. These videos have helped me learn how to handle her.

[KK-mmms]

"What i am doing will save her life"
I completely agree.

[DoubleDogDare]

Like with kids, if you try to be their best friend they will take advantage of the situation, forcing you to go backwards and start all over again as a parent and as a horse owner. You cannot be EQUAL to a horse. You must be the leader or they will make (darn) sure they are the boss over you. That is how horses operate and you either operate under the same set of rules or they'll put you in the hospital.

[danielalawrence]

Haflingers can sometimes be stubborn but once they undestand they cannot have things the way they like, they become good companions.
