  • WHat are they doing to the horse at 6:47. is it blindfolded?

  • @ZombieRant This mare was terrified of plastic bags when she came. We put one over her head to show that she now has the confidence in herself and the driver to walk forwards, and that she is therefore no longer scared of the plastic being around her head. When Barry worked at Youngs, a plastic bin liner did exactly this - blew in the air and caught on a horse's blinker, covering its head, so we train them to cope things like this without panicking.

  • Best videos EVER!!!!! Driving and the horsemanship required to do so is a practically lost art, and these people are ARTISTS, period!! I drive and I love these vids...everytime I hear "You can't make a driving horse or pony do that" I send people links to these vids! This is SO inspiring, and if I lived in the UK I would send all my horses and ponies to these people! Kudos!

see all

    I've never seen a gray/grey one before! I'm getting into the carting business! So, if I have any questions will you help me? Thanks for your time!

  • @TwilightRiverRanch Thank you - yes that's the one; he's also shown entering the river and being driven back along another stretch of road.

  • @barryhook2

    The grey/gray one? Anyways I love your work!

  • @TwilightRiverRanch He is a Gelderlander (imported from Holland).
