Starting Colts With The Clicker - 3 video set

This set shows you step by step how to start young horses under saddle easily using the clicker to promote a calm, willing attitude with no resistance. I take a young gelding who has had very little handling out of the pasture and start him under saddle. This set covers targeting, backing, head lowering, sacking out, flagging, sack of cans, teaching him to stop when something falls off, replacing the flight response with stop, getting a stop with the clicker, voice commands for all the gaits, working in the round pen, trotting over poles, stepping on plywood, targeting on scary objects, building a good whoa, standing still for saddling and mounting, round pen exercises, watching where he is going, giving to the bit, giving to legs, ground driving, first few rides, turning, stopping, neck reining and ends on backing under saddle. This is about 6 hours of actual footage starting young horses with no jerking or hitting. Learn how to do it the easy way and build a good relationship with a happy horse. This is a home video and my editing stinks. There is static in places where the tapes are put together and noise from the neighbors, airplanes and wind. But, it has a great deal of commonsense knowledge packed into it and comes with a free clicker. I believe it will show you how to put a good foundation on a horse that will allow you to continue on easily no matter what kind of riding or driving you do. Happy Trails, Karen

America - Reschooling a Rescue Horse Videos - 3 video set

America is a pinto mare 10+ years that was donated for tiger food about 1 1/2 yrs ago. The man that gave her to the tigers said she was crazy and wanted her killed. She was rescued by the Lori Wade family. She was roped and snubbed to remove a halter that had made sores in her head. She was roped and snubbed again one time to doctor her head. Lori's son attempted to brush her and she kicked him hard with both hind feet. She has learned to trust Lori's daughter Rachelle to the extent of allowing her to pet her head and neck occasionally. They have been unsuccessful at getting a rope or halter on her and are unable to do anything with her. Molly Ayres, local jumper trainer, backed her stock trailer up to America's pen and tied a gentle horse in the front of it. They managed to load America using several people carrying poles as a movable fence and brought her to me for training. She was unloaded directly into my round pen.
MY GOALS
1. To get America to trust and like me.
2. To get America to come when called, stick her nose into the halter and stand quietly while I fasten it.
3. To get America to lead quietly on either side with her head opposite my shoulder about 18" from it.
4. To get America to stop and stand quietly when asked.
5. To get America to stand quietly and allow me to touch her all over her body and handle her feet.
These videos are the actual footage of me working with America and meeting all of these goals. They clearly show the magic of the clicker method in overcoming behavior problems. America is now learning to be a riding horse and doing very well. I did these videos to help others in dealing with terrified ruined horses. Almost 6 hours of home video filmed by Justin Parker.

Trim Your Horse's Feet

I have been shoeing horses for about 30 years and have shod many winners in many disciplines including Energizer -- overall performance in the xp2001 endurance ride. Ridden by Carol Crawford, this little horse went 1650 miles in 33 days. In this video I show step by step the basics of how to trim your horses feet. This video covers tools, brands, costs and how to use them, how to hold the horse's hoof so you have hands free to work, conformation, foot angles, how to balance a foot to the leg, how much foot to remove, when to stop trimming, beveling the wall and rounding up the toe. I trim a front and hind hoof on Firestarter showing and explaining all the steps. This video will give you the basics to trim a normal horse with confidence.

Working With Feet

I have been shoeing horses for about 30 years and have seen all kinds of problems horses have with people trying to work with their feet. I did this video to try to help out some of these horses and their owners plus the horseshoers that have to deal with them. This video has the Klamath Falls clicker demo to show some of the fun things we do with clicker training. Then Tony and I demonstrate the first three steps of clicker training. Then I take a 16 month old colt that has never had his feet handled and show how to shape his behavior to pick his feet up and hold them up himself with no tack on him. Next step is desensitizing him to noise on his feet to prepare him for trimming and shoeing. I break this down into easy step by step training anyone can do. Next I go work with an 5 year old stallion that has decided he doesn't want his feet done anymore and a yearling filly that pulls back and rears when her owner tries to pick up her feet. I show how to use the clicker to expedite trimming both these horses with no hassles. Approximately 2 hours long.

Fun With Obstacles

In this video Francisco and I show you how to train your horse to negotiate calmly and confidently a wide variety of trail obstacles such as labyrinths, walking over poles, backing through the labyrinth, sidepassing over poles and around corners, teeter totters, bridges, tunnels, brush, logs, tapes, barrels, spooks in the woods, mailboxes, ground tying, and the dreaded mud puddle. This tape will give you some fun ideas for doing obstacles and show you how to make your horse a more obedient, maneuverable, calmer trail horse. Happy Trails, Karen

Teach Your Horse To Stand Tied

One of the biggest problems I have seen people have with horses is getting them to stand tied so I did this tape to try to help. This video has the Klamath Falls Clicker Demo With Karen, Sarah and Francisco showing some of the cool things they do with clicker training. Karen and Tony show the first steps in clicker training, the hi-line setup, how to teach young horses to tie, working with horses that pull back, paw and won't stand still. I also talk about teaching a horse to cross tie. I have taken many horses that wouldn't tie and taught them to using the steps in this video. I have never found one I couldn't teach to stand tied. This method is broken down into easy steps anyone can do. Horses really enjoy clicker training -- give it a try.

Safe and Easy Hobble Training Video

Why hobble train your horse? I do mostly for safety reasons. Hobble trained horses will stand still if they get a foot caught in a rope, fence, wire or anything else. I have been in several bad wrecks when a horse I was riding got a foot caught in brush or wire so I started hobble training everyone before I got on them. It is great basic training also because it helps teach a horse to think rather than react in a blind panic. It is also very handy for trail riders and packers to be able to hobble a horse to graze. I take a broodmare out of the pasture that has had no clicker training or hobble training and in 90 minutes spread out over 4 sessions have the beginnning steps of clicker training taught and the mare hobble trained front and rear. Justin filmed the entire process. It is broken down into small steps and is much, much safer than just putting hobbles on them and letting them fight it out. There is a short clicker training demo at the end of the tape to show some fun things to teach with this method. Happy Trails, Karen.

This was a big hit at the demo we did in Klamath Falls. Teach Your Horse To Line Dance shows you step by step how to teach your horse to circle with you, go back and forth, sidepass to and away, bow and how to put it all together in your own dance. Lots of fun and it really teaches your horse to focus on you.

Also on this tape is teaching your horse to fetch while being ridden and picking up your hat and giving it to you when it blows off.

Teach Your Horse to Sit Down

This video shows you how to teach your horse to sit down on bales of hay or a beanbag without any force. No foot ropes, whip, chains or wire brushes. By using the clicker and shaping small steps the horse learns to sit down willingly and easily. Clicker training is a food based positive reinforcement system. You should have some basic clicker knowledge before teaching this. If you don't my Groundwork video is an excellent one to watch first. I use three different horses in actual schooling in this video. Melody shows the beginning steps, Francisco the intermediate and Tony the ending. Happy Trails, Karen Parker and Clickin' On Ranch
