  I could easily fall in love with this horse. &nbsp;She now has a good trainer, I hope she has a good home.

  Nate Eicher and Ryan Rose are my two favourite &nbsp;trainers on YouTube. &nbsp;I watch every video they put out. Their patience and empathy for the horse is outstanding.

  I can’t imagine her having a bad temperament given she’s a Clydesdale-Gypsy Vanner cross. I’m going to love seeing her come along. And I’m not gonna lie. Your grass does look pretty darn good.

  Things I check for in a new horse (or rather, things I usually have to teach a new horse!) by order of importance would be: Can they stand quietly next to me on a loose lead? Can they be touched all over while standing quietly? Do they face up to me if I move around at liberty? Those 3 things are the basis for catching, handling feet etc. Then after that: Do they understand and give to pressure on the lead? Flexing their head side to side. Yielding shoulders and hindquarters, respecting space. Lowering their head, backing. Desensitizing to scary objects, swinging ropes, fly spray, tarps. If you have a horse that does all that, nothing else will be too much of a problem

  100% agree on running them around. Getting the focus and having good communication is more effective than running them around until they are so tired they become compliant.

  As soon as I heard her first whinny at the intro during the interview, I adored Willow immediately. I would definitely want to own a horse like her. She is such a little sweetheart❤

  I dont have horses, but I love all animals, especially horses, and it just makes me happy to see humans really understand animals and work with them humanely. I hope to have a horse someday.

  I ran a TB breeding farm, growing young steeplechasers. I never sheltered the horses from anything. They were use to the ATV, tractors dogs and children. It was nothing for the dogs to chase a rat through the loose barn and the youngsters not move at all. <br>In the UK we frequently feed haulage which is wrapped in polythene. One day the youngsters pulled one of these large wraps into their pen. I went to pick it up and they were pulling on it. I just threw the whole thing over two yearlings with a weaner foal between them and none flinched at all. It surprised me that there wasn’t a reaction.

  Regarding the &quot;join-up&quot;, you ARE joining up with her....you can see how quickly she relaxes and starts being &quot;present&quot;.

  I’m pretty proud of this lady, she’s getting the help she needs and I think she chose the right guy. Ryan is doing a very nice job! I think this will be a nice horse when all is done - it’s learning quick.
