To everyone that is picking on her: she did EXACTLY the right thing. Horses get in "panic" mode and there is nothing you can do. Her leaving him be was the only solution. And you can see he would sit and think about what he was doing a few times before trying another tactic. Eventually he will learn when he's tied, he's tied. Letting him loose would teach him that it's ok to panic because it would mean a way to escape, which is what he wanted.

you did the right thing Every horse needs to learn to tie no excueses. you did the right thing by staying out of the way and not letting him get away with it good job!

@Leadhorse123wolfy *like* Thank you...I swere some peoples kids. :P

Are you guys both okay? There is not alot you can do when they go mad like that, so I think you did all you could to stop him/her hurting him/herself and others. Wel done!!
-
@JasperIsaLittleHorse Yeah, its realy scary when that stuff happens :P

I ride horse and this in NOT abuse, trust me. She did what was safest for the horse. Horses spook for silly reasons because they are prey animals and you just have to let them work it out. If she let him off the cross ties he would learn that that kind of behavior is okay and that it means he can be untied. My horse spooks a lot and you just have to keep going and they'll calm down it see that it's okay. You CANNOT condone bad behavior, a horse is not a toy, it's dangerous for the horse andrider

Personally, I wouldn't call this abuse. She was trying to change the horse's halter to a more comfortable one and he was acting up probably cuz he didn't take the moment to stop and think about what she was trying to do.

@hillmaranda40 That's not slappin dear. Thats pattin. BTW its cross ties, not croce ties, and if she took it off,well thast pretty dangerous or it could be, a lose horse is as bad as this, and she did have a reason to do this, TO CALM HIM.She did the right thing and your maybe some 8 year old girl who got on their parents account, Now please, Go run off and rant somewhere's else and leave her alone. Bye.

Horse abuse?! Really..Really? >.>
This is NOT horse abuse,let me tell you, This horse does NOT look hurt or shows no sign of 'abuse.' If you call this abuse,READ SOME BOOKS. He looks scared,He miht have been too,But she stayed away witch was a good thing. And at least she tried to calm him down! And it appears she did.
(Sorry btw,I am horrible at explainin things.. lol)
I thought you were very brave to go up there and calm the horse and try to change his halter. I've seen horses freak, and sometimes you just need to let themselves (safely) wear themselves out. I hope that I do as well as you if ever in this situation! I want to be a horse trainer, so I think its interesting to watch videos like this. I had a mini horse wrap his head up in a lead rope once (while he was tied up) and he freaked out, I had to calm him down, not get kicked, and untie him.Its hard!

@RideReadWrite Thank you, And I had that happen to my very own pony, My friend tied him up and left WAy o much rope, he was tied to a tree and it wrapped around one of his feet and he struggled and somehow got it wrapped around his but and hocks and it almost hung him, He was sitting on the ground tied tight to the tree. You could hear him weezing for breath. thankfully I happend to look up just has it happend and I ran to him and the only reason i was able to unclip him was pure adrenaline.
