Curiosity in the Young Horse by Alternative Horsemanship with Samantha H...


Meet Blackie He's a two-year-old colt who was born in the wild on a private land reserve designated for this particular group of horses in the early 1900s. His owner went and adopted him after being up here at a clinic and meeting Chloe, (remember the horse I rode the bicycle with?,) a filly born in the same band. Do you remember the video of the colt Montana playing in the water? He's also from the same band. The minds on these horses are pretty incredible... No, he's not a mustang... In the background is not mist or clouds, but rather smoke. Can you see the 6,000' mountains behind the trees? No? Neither can I for the last few weeks. The wildfires are still raging around us...

First time leading the young horse- BLM Mustang Filly Alternative Horsemanship


Intro to leading Calamity Jane a filly BLM mustang. It took several weeks before I could touch her. Then after finding all her itchy spots multiple times, having her start to pick up her feet while loose, learn to be called off her feed, having her follow me around loose as I did chores in her pen, having her yield her head and follow the pressure of my fingerprints and take steps with me, I introduced haltering. I started filming right after I attached the lead rope for the first time. Most people watching would find this boring. Uneventful. Not exciting. That is exactly the point. Anything new with the horse shouldn't be big, dramatic, "or a story to tell later." But too often the human "thrives" on the scary moments they survive with the horse... for what? Bragging rights? Ego? And where does that leave the horse mentally, emotionally, and physically in their future interactions with people? Quality Conversations with the horse that he can retain, are based on thoughtful, specific, and clear Communication.

Horse Communication and Behavior: Offering to be Caught and Haltered


Pippin is a Haflinger that was in a rescue scenario. Not knowing his past, it was clear he was defensive about humans. Part of his re-education has been reignited his curiosity which diminishes his fear. Here is what I look for in a horse willing to participate before I halter them.

Pasture Conversations with Tulip Helping the Fearful and Defensive Horse...


So many daily Opportunities can arise to help re-educate the fearful and defensive horse if the human puts value to them. This isn't about "making" her stay, but rather creating a "new" human experience without imposing spatially or physically, but still communicating with the distrustful horse. This brief clip of a moment with Tulip along her journey of learning to trust and participate with people.
