Clinton Anderson and Taz

This video was taken at the MA Equine Affaire 2008. A few seconds before I started filming, Taz, the horse Clinton was working with, grabbed the bit, ran to the gate, and started rearing and trying to jump the fence. This video shows Clinton succeeding in regaining control and calming down the horse, despite the fact that it does try to take of with him a few more times. Clinton was pretty funny when he told people to "use their damn heads and get off the fence" because the horse kept trying to go over it.

great horsemanship lets hit the hose on the neck with a whip

[Courtney11286]

Clinton handled that very well. And he's not "hitting the horse on the neck with a whip" for no reason. The horse took off with him and tried to jump out of the arena. He's simply using the crop to get the horse to focus on what he was asking him to do and oh look - it worked. If you have an issue with it, don't watch the video.

I like Clinton Anderson the best out of horse trainers like, Dennis Reis, Craig Cameron, Pat and Linda Parelli etc.

@ILoveDrimi sorry i just don't like when people spread rumors about breeds it all depends on how the person handles them. Training tip tie a carrot in front of your horse good motivation. lol

@Horsemanshprocks calm down haha just somthing ive heard. My horse is dumb, not that he is a bad horse but he is a slow learner. and dont go saying its me that makes him dumb because he has had a lot of professional trainers work with him and they all say the same thing. K bye (:

[Horsemanshprocks]

@ILoveDrimi that is not true. if you label a horse that is what it becomes. Horses are not dump nor stupid. They are horses. my friend has a paint and she is mostly white and she is has no problems. People make their horses bad.

[ILoveDrimi]

Just a comment about paints..haha ive heard the more white on a paint, the dumber they are. and so far i think its true XD

[ILoveDrimi]

@avshorse1234 Yea what a terrible horse person..getting a horse to respect him.. lets all just not hit horses and treat them like dogs! (: Ha its peopl like you that i love to watch their horses hurt them due to respect issues

[Asumandwesum1412]

I work with an 11 year old paint and he still acts like hes 3, lol. Hes just spoiled and a little boy at heart. Not all paint are at all crazy. Ive worked with good tempered and crazy ones. It just depends on the horse.

[BarebackRider13]

@painthorselover101 Of course. I'm not saying all paints are crazy. The ones I've worked with have been, and I have quite a few friends that are trainers that agree. However, there are some fantastic paints out there, as I'm sure yours are. Just gotta find the right ones!

[painthorselover101]

@BarebackRider13 seriously, i ride two paints, one is 10 the other is 6, and they both mellow and amazing riding horses.

[GlassEyedAlice]

@avshorse1234 u probably ride english lol XD

[MrSugar757]

Clinton Rocks! His training methods are common scense and NO his not violent! Do you think the horse gies a crap if he / she threw u off and hurt u....um NOPE! His not hitting the horse on the neck for absolutly no reason there is a method behind it! And people who think his a bad rider like to see you try and get on a green horse thats unbalanced ahs really no idea of what your asking and then we will see how nice you ride! IDIOTS!
