WHEN HORSES BITE PART I

This is first in a series of youtube videos about horses biting--throughout the videos I will go over reasons horses bite; what warnings horses give before they bite; how to help yourself be safer against biting. I am not a horse trainer. I am sharing what I've learned--mostly from my grandfather and Pepe growing up. Always be safe around horses and always use your own best judgement in each situation for nothing with horses is set in stone....be safe.... Part 2 will be out soon.... : )

@bobbob306 It would be quite helpful to know what you dislike about it--content, video quality etc? Have a nice day.

Wow this has really opened my eyes to why horses bite. My horse has the issue that eh will constantly nip at you. Before we bought him he was at a yard where he was next to a muck heap which everyone on the yard would walk very close past his stable. i assume this is where his biting habits started. Can you recommend how i can stop him being so aggressive. thanks

@lushlydz Hi, if you have a video of what the horse is doing it would be very helpful. Most of my videos are on topics related to biting, aggression and boundary issues--maybe look through them and see if something helps? You're issue seems to be when the horse is first approached? I can put one together on that if you think it might help---might take a couple weeks--its cold here and been very windy lately.

chappysmom87: Thank you for making this video, I, like a lot of other people here, learned to feed through the fence, and not over. I'm always brushing my horses out in the field, and sometimes while I'm grooming them, they try to return the favour, and start pulling at my clothes, or taking nips at me. I don't take offence or anything to it, but what would be a good way to tell them that I don't need them to groom me back? So far, I've just been gently pushing their heads away.

It's beautiful how you can play with your horse that way!! x

Love this, especially the part where you jump up and down waving the blue thing like crazy. That's exactly what I would do with my horse, hahaha!
