Was it a mistake to adopt him in the first place? His unpredictability quickly became so dangerous!

I'm so glad you kept trying to break through his aggression. Poor guy was just afraid and then realized he didn't have to be😊

I’ve known horses who wouldn’t be so calm when someone was behind them! He did look at you occasionally to check what you were doing, but he trusts you completely!

Glad that you kept him. My dad had a horse, Hard Rock to Handle. He had won the AQHA World Conference Championship as a Yerling. Boy did he live up to his name. As a stud, no one could go into his stables with him but my dad and my cousin, who had been his handler and showman. He would charge at you with teeth bared trying to bite. Finally, my dad had him gelded due to his constant foundering. Afterwards, all of my kids were able to ride him , put him in parades, etc.. He became the most gentle baby sitter for my little girls and my nieces.

Definitely not a good idea but if they’re trained to know how to behave, and in this instance he knows I’m braiding his tail and won’t react. But many people will stand being their horses to do tail braids etc with no issue.

@@maryr7256- Horse’s are inherently dangerous. They can pretty much kick 360 degrees - consider they scratch their ears with back feet much like a dog. Big risk of being behind a horse is startling them. They also so their most powerful kicks straight back where they can kick both feet at the same time. For this reason they’ll point back end toward a threat or if they’re planning to kick you. Basically let them know you are there and don’t let them swing their butt toward you - otherwise you’ll probably be safe. All that said, I always approach from front or forward half of side. Going around back I sometimes loop way out but usually put my hand on their back a inches from trear as I walk around. Just like punching, they need a little distance to get power into a kick.

Wow! I just joined your channel and have watched a few of your videos and I can't believe how far you came with Rudnik. Absolutely Amazing! Rudnik is so lucky to have you in his life! I've not been around horses much but I've always adopted my dogs and cats. I've had 1 dog that was that way for me. I was at the end of my rope, at the front door ready to take Asha back to the pound. When i reached for the door knob I looked down at her, made eye contact and i couldn't do it. I sat right down on the floor and we literally had a talk. I explained to her that i couldn't have her destroying my house and if it continued I would have to take her back. A miracle happened! From that moment on she became a perfect dog! The bond that comes from an experience like that is very special. Enjoy it, You both are lucky to have each other!

I cried while reading this 😢 reminds me of my 17 hand grey Arab Reese, it took me years to gain his trust, he was dangerous and a trench digger if i put him in a small stall, hours and hours to get him trailerd just to go 10 miles away 😔 he was definitely abused before i had him. The Lady who gave him to me had a very very abusive trainer and said that Reese had been green broke, this couldn't have been farther from the truth, what they actually did was reverse halter breaking, well maybe more on the broken side of that phrase. I thought i had made a huge mistake taking on such a crazy horse. I started with just sitting in the middle of the arena for hours and just allowing him to approach me without any pressure at all. Since he was so nervous about himans i figured this was where i needed to start. The funny thing is, i sat out there for hours and he never approached me, but when i went inside the house and looking out the kitchen window i see my 8 year old daughter getting his trust first ❤ you really can't stop a natural horse girl, they will connect with that horse!

After watching this video flick that is the right mom for the right horse. And yeah, I’ve been bit and stepped on a time or two. And kicked. My fault every time. Horses are so much smarter than you think and will out smart most people. They lure you in with cuteness for you to bring them apples and carrots. And then the ear scratches begin and brushing and then you are hooked forever more than any drug. When that happens they know they own you. I reckon that’s a pretty good deal for me too.

You should all follow Steve Young Horsemanship. He learnt from the best, an American. The original 'Horse Whisperer!!! Never do more than the basics at first, which is teaching them to choose, where to put their feet. Without that control, such a dangerous situation 🤔

Never owned a horse and have only been riding probably 20 times in my life and in that short riding career one tried to snuff me by galloping at full speed through an apple orchard and scrape me off on a low branch, luckily I was able to get my feet out of the stirrups and jump. Come to find out she wasn't fully broken/trained, I chose her because her name was "Kisses" and figured she had to be sweet, What a bunch of horse shit that was, no pun intended. I still can see her running incredibly fast down the dirt road after I jumped, stirrups flying erratically back and forth from the saddle to her sides, and the dust rising up as she got smaller and smaller on the horizon, never slowing down.

I don’t there there really was a ’breaking point’, which is one of the reasons I’d get so discouraged. It was a very slow process over a few years and as his trust slowly built he very slowly began to come out of his shell. I’m doing a series that shows our progress over the years but yeah to be honest, we never really had an ‘ah ha!’ moment. He really made me work for that trust 🥲😂

For Rudnik and his mom, if you still need answers to what Rudnik is thinking, you may think I’m weird and that’s fine, I’m cool with that! I encourage you to seek help, advice, answers from a lady named Karen A. Anderson, she has a website and you’ll find her on KZfaq, and has written books, the one I bought I’ve not read fully yet but her backstory is extremely interesting. The book, Hear All Creatures!: The Journey of an Animal Communicator If for no other reason than for you to know what Rudnik wants, needs, and he’ll hears you, I think he does. Angel Blessings to you all 🥰🥰
