Thank you very much for this video and part 1, they are the most helpful 'learn to bow' videos i've come across, and ive been looking for a long time! Thank you x
O oops, I asked a question on the bow 101 (the first video...) I really need youre help Red is really impatient and doesn't get it, im trying to teach him its been two months and is it ok to do it in a small box? and he doesn't understand
That is okay, I recieved both. :) Would you be able to video your efforts and send it to me? From what you describe he feels uncomfortable with what you are asking. If you train him in a small box this will make him feel more pressure. Giving up two legs and planting your face in the dirt is a big trust thing that our horses do when they bow. So I would try to establish more trust and video tape him so I can give you help custom to Red's behavior. :-)
Wow! This is so great. Thank you so much for sharing this.
I have an eight-years-old gelding Friesian and I would love to teach him this.
The only problem with him is that when I tried to teach him new tricks, he's being so impatient with me, like he will try to get my treat from my hand and his ears fall backward.
He knows how to do Spamish greeting now but I'll definitely try this trick! :)
well, probably i could ask my mom (she has a video camera) i could do that part but i dont know how to send it to u or to pull it up on the computer... :(
Thanks to you I am confident in trying the bow with my horse Hunter. You have answered all my questions,except one:
What stains or mucules are the horses using, it must not be that bad cause the horses that have never done it before don't seem to struggle to much. Just woundering if you have had any physical problems happen, to the back or knees of the horses/or pony? (People are starting to ask me when they see me doing it!)
I hope I have as much fun bowing as you do with Patch!

It all vairies depending on the horse. Some horses have issues getting full extention which means they must be stretched before expected to have a full bow. Other's can go right down with no issue. :) They use their back/neck muscles (stretching them), their legs for support and extension and finally their core to keep locked and still in that position. :) does that answer your question?
yeah I'll have to just work on stretching his legs I guess, when I put the treat between his legs and just make him reach for it he bends his legs or backs up! lol
lol. yeah stretching is definately the key to bowing. Kinda like splits for us. We need to stretch before doing it. Not unless we are five years old and can roll ourselves up in a duffle bag and be shipped to peru. ;]
