When you say the word horses a few places come to mind, Montana, Wyoming, but none as much as Texas. Texas and its horses have quite a history. In this article we will introduce you to a little Texas history and the horses that are involved.
First, we have to go into a little Mexican and Spanish History. Texas was, for a long time, under Spanish rule. Spain ruled Mexico and Mexico ruled Texas you might say.
Spain’s introduction of warfare on horseback is very well known. The horse helped the Conquistadors conquer more and more territory throughout South America. Their territory once extended from Peru and Argentina all the way up into Texas and Louisiana.
Most of the groups the warriors from Spain encountered had no horses and were at a huge disadvantage in battle. The image we always see of the Spanish Soldier is one of him in armor and on horseback.
Another image that is conjured up when mentioning horses and Texas is Indians on horseback. What many do not know is that the Indians in Texas had no horses until they were brought in during Spanish rule of the area. Most hoses the Indians rode were ones stolen from settlers and soldiers after seeing the advantage the soldiers had over them.
When Mexicans first began to settle in Texas around where the Friars built their missions to bring religion to the Indians, most of them didn’t bring horses either. People walked hundreds of miles to get to where they would eventually settle and build their homes. Many had mules or donkeys, but few had horses.
It was the same for those who came from various places within the new United States. They came by boat to New Orleans many times, but then had a long walk to get to their new Texas home where the Mexican government was giving land away for free.
The settlers soon discovered there were wild horses in Texas. What we now call Mustangs were abundant and were free if you could catch them and train them. These horses were not as big as other horses, but they were very sturdy and strong animals that became a huge part of Texas history.
You have to see it how it was then. There was not that much actual cash money to be had anywhere in Texas. There was free land if you were willing to go there and claim it. There were free horses if you were willing to catch and train them. There were even free cattle if you were willing to round them up, the Texas Longhorn.
So many settlers made the long trek to Texas, converted to Catholicism, which was required by the Mexican government if you wanted free land, then captured and trained free Mustangs, which they then used to round up the free cattle.
It sounds great, huh? Just go grab some free land, free horses, and free cattle and you were on your way! Not exactly. It was a very rough life. One that not many people today could even fathom. There was not many people in Texas, some Indian tribes did not want settlers there and showed it through violent attacks, and the work was hard.
To make money from the cattle or horses that were collected they had to be driven all the way to New Orleans for sale. This drive took months to accomplish. The travel we do today spoils our ability to understand the way it was for these settlers.
Some of them spent more than a year traveling to find where they and their families would settle. They then spent at least another year building their house and gathering the horses and cattle that might make up their rancho. Then figure at least a 6 month round trip to sell cattle or horses just to make enough money to buy supplies that were not available free on the Texas range.
The Mustang Horse proved to be one of the best horses for soldiers. It was sturdy enough to handle the rough terrain that larger horses could not handle. They could go without water longer than other horses. They were not skittish when it came to gunfire and battle.
The Texas Rangers rode Mustangs while roaming Texas in search of Banditos and Outlaws. Many men riding Mustangs fought the Battle of San Jacinto. The Apache Indians used them somewhat, but the fierce Comanche Indians had many Mustangs and were some of the greatest horsemen to ever live anywhere. But that is another story.
I hope this short article gave you at least a glimpse into where horses in Texas came from and how they were used. Look in your favorite search engine for more about the Mustangs that still run free today and for more about Texas history and horses. You’ll find the topic interesting and entertaining.

Avoid Lamborghinis When Buying Horses For Sale

Would you visit a vehicle auction and, let’s presume that money isn’t any problem, get a Ferrari for your 17-year-old who’s recently passed her or his driving licence examination? If you haven’t taken leave of one’s own senses, the response could be, obviously, in the negative. Of course it seems a silly question to those people who fully understand the fact that the automobile is really a high-performance supercar, not really suited to an individual with minimum practical experience.

Advantage Flea For Dogs: How To Control Fleas

Once a dog has been invaded by fleas, it is extremely difficult to get rid of the infestation. This is because flea larvae can survive in a dormant state for years till they find a conducive environment in which to mature. This means that even if your dog is free of adult fleas, there might be flea eggs and larvae still present not only on the dog but also in your home.

With the advent of betting exchanges getting recognition for a more modular system for horse betting, more and more people are trying to make dividends by betting on horses which are tempted to lose. What ever the proposition of winning money on losing horse, it is always best to bet against the horse that’s favorite to win the race.

This can be understood this way too, generally, a horse with lots of money on stake over is considered favorite, in some instances, there could be a horse with lower prices but better chances of winning the game. And from on the edge of that particular rate a punter starts making profit after betting on that horse.

So a punter makes profit by betting on favorite that are often priced very low. Sometimes betting on the exchanges proves very crucial as they are very efficient barometer to judge probability. But a wrong probability and slightest error on decision let you to watch your money draining away like water down a plug hole. Therefore distinction between favorite and true favorites is a must for a strong winning probability.

By following a certain criteria one can easily judge the positive aspect of a horse’s form with strong probability to win the race. The horse should have strong probability and strong contender ship to win the race with ability to run on the track where race is about to be organized. Analysis of general form of the horse races over a period of last few weeks conducted on the track.

Track record of trainer on a specific track on a horse including second position or one winning during the period of previous 14 days is a very good sign for betting. There are many other better ways to know about a better trainer as he can be adjudged by reading daily racing forms or information can be received through the tracks. A better trainer can be known from the victories, earnings and excellent track records as it force a punter to bet on a horse trained by them.

A good horse trainer always remains stiffer on his horse; the relation between a trainer and a horse is quite strained as it never been easy for a horse trainer to teach. There is times when a trainer has to test limit of his horses to the expectation of race. A good trainer never leaves an effort unturned to make his horse to win a race at any cost. Meanwhile, there are some trainers, who, feel the task is too hard be achieved by a horse and become lax, as this attachment with horse results into failure on the track, so be wary of these emotional sort of trainers to get your desired result while betting on a horse.

After trainer, it is the turn of the jockey that knows very well all the trade secrets of horse racing, especially, veteran ones. They know well how to steer horses according to a track’s nooks and crannies. Jockey should also have winning track record of 10 percent.

When you are considering buying and training a wild horse you have to take into consideration all the requirements to successfully tame your horse. This can be a very difficult task if your horse is not used to humans or physical contact. Many of them will not let you go near them or touch them until they are familiar with you and completely trust you.My uncle recently purchased a wild horse to put on his 2 acres of land. He wanted to give his new horse the ability to run free and enjoy all the open space but he always wanted to eventually ride him. The problem was that the horse was very wild and whenever any person would come near him he would immediately run away. This was very difficult since he had tons of open space to run and get away from us.We made many attempts to gently get him to come to us so we could get to know each other but he would rather keep to himself and keep his space from us. We looked into a Wild Horse Training Book it let us train him within reasonable time and now he is very tame.

Dogs And Horses

The size difference between dogs and horses is usually that the horse is very much larger than the dog. Nevertheless, most horses are much more frightened of dogs than the reverse. This creates unique problems – for dogs and horses, and for the person who has to control them both.

When introducing dogs and horses, unlike other animal training areas, it helps very little to start the interaction out when both animals are young. Young horses are at least as skittish as older ones, and are often accompanied by a mare. Neither is naturally fond of nor curious about puppies. To a horse, nearly everything but their owners and a few other horses are threats – at least until they’re mature. But when mixing dogs and horses it can be very useful to introduce your young puppy to older horses at a very early age, as this will help to avoid the barking problem.

But there are many circumstances where dogs and horses interact successfully. Whether the dog owner is a regular visitor to stables or riding schools, or whether the dog lives on the premises both can get along well.

In the early stages of dog and horse interaction. always keep puppies and dogs restrained around horses until they’ve learned what to do and what to avoid. A lead, for at least the first several weeks of training, is a must. And ensure that the horse is not in a position to rear or run where the dog can be injured.

Training dog and horses to interact involves a series of separate, but easily learned behaviours.

To start your dogs and horses training, first, the dog has to learn to respect a boundary, a dog can easily slip through a paddock with metal bars, or a series of stalls, or other enclosures. Begin by using a leash and collar and make the boundary training part of a more general walk where you train the dog to follow you. Be sure your dog follows you, not leads you.

When mixing dogs and horses, the dog, will sense of smell the horse and be naturally curious about the horse, as it approaches the boundary. Allow the dog to approach – but not move beyond – the boundary. If it tries to breach the boundary, tug on the leash and give a sharp ‘No!’ or ‘Stop’. (‘Stay’ is a different behaviour, requiring a different – and unique – command.)

When dogs and horses first meet your dog will have a tendency to bark, this needs to be suppressed. Barking frequency varies with breed and individual temperament, but horses aren’t discriminating. When seemingly threatened, they react – and a horse’s reaction to barking is not usually something pleasant.

Dogs and horses are both pack animals and will usually follow the lead of the alpha (leader), unless, they’re trying to be the alpha. This drive for dominance, coupled sometimes with fear or simply the desire to warn of a threat, can lead to barking.

During your dog and horse training you need to reinforce your ‘top dog’ status, by a sharp jerk sideways on the leash, accompanied by a sharp verbal ‘No bark!’. Jerk sideways, not back, in order to get the dog’s attention without risking injury to the throat. Dogs have very strong neck muscles, but throats can still be too easily bruised by excessive force.

If the dog insists on barking, remove him from the area and try again another day. Don’t give up too easily, though. You don’t want to train the dog that every time he barks ‘Danger’, you obey by fleeing.

As with any dog training regiment, patience and consistency are the keys to success. Be firm, but not abusive, and execute the same unique command and physical movement regularly for each associated behaviour taught. Teaching dogs and horses to be comfortable with each others company you need to be sure that your commands to your dog do not frighten your horse.

A Problem Horse can cause its owner and trainer great despair and loss. Aside from harming people due to erratic and rude behaviors, horses that do not accomplish horse training (including the learning of buck rearing stops) could easily harm themselves and other horses, and may even cause other horses to misbehave as well. When horses which have bad habits are not re trained properly, their real value could dramatically decrease in a short while.Without proper and careful horse training, a problem horse can go on biting, kicking, rearing, cribbing and bucking. Sometimes it could simply just ignore its trainer and do the opposite of what is being expected of it – just like stopping at a fence instead of jumping over it. It may run when asked to stop, or gallop when asked to trot. Not only does this cause great distress; it could also result into injuries later on – both to the horse and its rider.Bucking Rearing Stops do not happen automatically. In trying to retrain a horse, it is primarily important to understand that a number of factors may be causing a horse to behave negatively. One possibility is that when a horse does not realize that its trainer is the leader of the herd, it becomes stubborn and difficult to manage. In this case, the trainer must establish his identity as the alpha or the leader, so that the he can command respect from the horse. Another possibility is when a horse imitates problematic behaviors from other horses, or when a horse just happens to be too energetic or too strong.The exciting thing about problem horses is that they end up having very good qualities and abilities. They may be particularly difficult, aggressive and stubborn at first, but once they are trained correctly, they prove to be wonderful assets to their trainers and owners.There are instances when individual trainers, through their perseverance, successfully retrain their horses, but this does not happen all the time. Often, individuals need to seek the help of more experienced people who do not only have the knowledge but also the experience, equipment, skills and environment which fit the seemingly unyielding horse.In Stal Amani for example, a horse is trained from 3-6 months within a facility where the breeding, boarding and training of many other horses are done. In the process, a professional who understands difficult horses analyzes, trains and evaluates the progress of the horse and reports it to its owner or trainer who can also learn how the training of his or her horse is done. By using videos to capture the horse’s training sessions, the trainer is likely to further understand the temperament of his horse and the steps he could take to make it a better horse. When horse trainers have done everything they could to retrain their horses yet find no significant results, then it is high time that they seek professional help as soon as possible. Otherwise, they may cause harm to their own horses. The advantage of getting a professional facility into the picture is that the trainer can become more aware of the choices or opportunities available for him and his problem horse, especially when the desired horse training, including buck rearing stops, does not seem to have an immediate effect.

Cheetahs, Horses And How They Gain And Maintain Balance

]]>

Have you ever watched a Cheetah run? A Cheetah has been known to run up to 70 mph, and uses his tail in a whipping motion behind him in to maintain his balance. Whilst some horses are capable to speeds up to 50 mph, they do not use their tails to maintain balance, instead, they use their head and neck for balance.
As we ride a horse and try to get him collected and balanced, we are working to break him free of the habit of using his head and neck for balance. We’re trying to transfer his center of balance from up over his withers to back under our seat. Many riding instructors will emphasize the importance of keeping your shoulders over the balls of your feet in order to maintain a riding position that assists the horse in transferring this centre of balance.
As a rider, your balance assists the horse’s balance and you are aiming for perfect balance on your horse. In order to achieve this you would ideally being sitting on your horse in such as fashion that you are giving him the impression you’re not really on him, and he can move any way he wishes with great freedom.
If you move from a perfectly balanced position on your horse by leaning slightly forward this places more weight on the front end of the horse, making it heavier and out of balance. In order to compensate for this he will have to transfer his own weight to offset it so he can do his job. The same issues occurs when you lean backwards or from side to side. This is one of the reasons that instructors insist on you looking straight ahead and not down when you ride, as looking down changes your centre of balance, and moves it forward. If you are out of balnce then you are actually in your horse’s way and interfering with his ability to carry out the tasks you are asking of him.

Horse Breaking Part 2

In part 1 I cover some horse breaking techniques that are used in natural horsemanship training when working in a round pen. Now it’s time to ride. That’s right – you ride before you fit the bridle. All you need is a halter and lead, or you can attach two leads to the halter if you prefer (like reins). This time, bring a mounting block into the round pen, and introduce your horse to it. Saddle up, lean over your horse’s back, swing your leg over, and sit up.

It is important to take your riding conditions, experience level, and passion into consideration when browsing the market for saddles and horse tack.

Why Horse Rug Washing Is Important for Horse and Rider

Horse rug washing is essential to maintain both the horse’s skin health and the long life of a horse rug. A horse rug is a piece of material which is positioned in-between the saddle and the horse’s back and sides to protect it from the harsh material on the underside of the saddle as it may scratch or cause the horse or pony irritation or even a skin disorder.

Cause and Effect in Horse Training

We all know that if you cause a horse to do something then you will get a certain effect. What a lot of people don’t understand is how much effect they actually have on a horse. The reality is that every second that you are with your horse you are training him even if you’re unaware of it. It is not uncommon for people to try to do something with their horse and actually teach it something completely different, or something they do not want him to do.

May 21, 2010

Teaching a horse to counter arc takes a long time, patience and some knowledge and so it is not a skill that can be immediately picked up by your horse. There are a number of methods to teach your horse this skill and below I have outlined one of the most popular and simplest methods.

Horse have an attention span similar to that of men when they are distracted by something, that is they get distracted very easily. This propensity to short attention spans can be a problem for those of us who work with horses, as you always want your horse to be paying attention to you, especially if you are trying to teach the horse something new.

Although there are many ways to teach a horse to stop, teaching them from the ground should be an essential part of any ground work. Simple methods are often best especially when based on the philosophy of less is more.

Overused Words and Confusion in Horse Training

May 12, 2010

According to an expert of the English language, the most frequently used English noun is the word ‘way’. However, in horse training the most frequently used word is ‘whoa’. It is important to be aware of the words we use in training our horses and what meaning we attach to them. We must be careful not to teach our horse to do something based on a verbal command that is not what we want them to do.

Move Your Horse with Your Pinky, Teaching Your Horse to Square Up

May 05, 2010

When you lead your horse and stop him, try squaring him up. This means his two front feet are directly across from each other and his two back feet are directly across from each other. Squaring up a horse isn’t as easy as it may sound. You keep moving them around until you get a foot where you want it, but once you do they move another foot. Then, they’re still not squared up.

Awareness: The most important Tool in Horse Training

Horses are not determined creatures, that is they only do what works for them. They are not creatures like humans who can show determination and patience to persevere with an idea that has previously failed over rand over again. With that in mind horses could never have invented the light bulb, as it took Edison more than 10,000 attempts to get the light bulb right, horses do not have that many attempts in them.

I have trained and bred Arabian horses for over twenty years and have developed my skills through the guidance and philosophies of some of the greatest ‘natural horseman’ of their day. I have been influenced by such greats as Monty Roberts, Tom Dorrance and Ray Hunt. I only endorse techniques in horse training that comply with the philosophy that ‘violence is never the answer’. http://everythingbutthehorse.nethttp://horselibrary.blogspot.com/

Horses And Computers. Love And Frustrations

I am sure we have all had the experience of a computer that has crashed or even smoked and failed to work at the most inconvenient time. Unfortunately this is a fact of life with computers and machinery, sometimes the just fail to work. Theses experiences with computer are usually followed by the dreaded thought of what happened to my work or data, ‘Did I back it up?.
Sometimes there is a need to replace all the software. Imagine if that happened for your horse. Just as software is the brains and operating system for your computer, basic ground work and halter training are the operating software for your horse. Without the basic operating system your horse will lock up just like a computer.
So in order to install your horse’s operating system you need to imagine your horse divided into four parts; head and neck, shoulders, barrel (ribs) and the hindquarters. Now the installation of the operating system is all about communicating with your horse as to how you want him to move each of these parts.
We often communicate with ourselves sub-consciously, by moving various fingers or limbs from time to time. This is because our operating system has been installed, tested and refined over a period of time through consistent repetition. In order to install an operating system in your horse you require a basic understanding of the use of reins, their effect upon the snaffle bit and how they guide your horse.
Take for example the ‘direct rein’ (leading rein), as the name implies it is directly connected to the horse and is used to teach lateral flexion. During the initial stages of teaching your horse to flex you take the ‘direct rein’ mid way between the horse’s eye and your hip. This allows the horse t see the rein. Within a short period of time your horse will see your hand coming and will know what to do, this is called pre-cueing or pre-teaching. However, be careful not to allow your horse to anticipate the movement required. You can use similar techniques when teaching your horse other rein effects especially the ‘indirect rein’ or neck rein.
As with teaching leg cues, the key to teaching rein cues is consistency, always use the cues in a consistent manner so as not to confuse the horse. When teaching leg aids, you begin at the walk on a 5 meter circle and use your inside leg touches and releases to propel the horse forward and provide and aid to turn around, the outside leg is off the horse. You gauge the correct bend by seeing your horse’s inside eye. Once the walk is good you can move onto the trot, lope and canter.

Why Horse Rug Washing Is Important for Horse and Rider

Horse rug washing is essential to maintain both the horse’s skin health and the long life of a horse rug. A horse rug is a piece of material which is positioned in-between the saddle and the horse’s back and sides to protect it from the harsh material on the underside of the saddle as it may scratch or cause the horse or pony irritation or even a skin disorder.

Cause and Effect in Horse Training

We all know that if you cause a horse to do something then you will get a certain effect. What a lot of people don’t understand is how much effect they actually have on a horse. The reality is that every second that you are with your horse you are training him even if you’re unaware of it. It is not uncommon for people to try to do something with their horse and actually teach it something completely different, or something they do not want him to do.

Overused Words and Confusion in Horse Training

May 12, 2010

According to an expert of the English language, the most frequently used English noun is the word ‘way’. However, in horse training the most frequently used word is ‘whoa’. It is important to be aware of the words we use in training our horses and what meaning we attach to them. We must be careful not to teach our horse to do something based on a verbal command that is not what we want them to do.

Move Your Horse with Your Pinky, Teaching Your Horse to Square Up

May 05, 2010

When you lead your horse and stop him, try squaring him up. This means his two front feet are directly across from each other and his two back feet are directly across from each other. Squaring up a horse isn’t as easy as it may sound. You keep moving them around until you get a foot where you want it, but once you do they move another foot. Then, they’re still not squared up.

Awareness: The most important Tool in Horse Training

Horses are not determined creatures, that is they only do what works for them. They are not creatures like humans who can show determination and patience to persevere with an idea that has previously failed over rand over again. With that in mind horses could never have invented the light bulb, as it took Edison more than 10,000 attempts to get the light bulb right, horses do not have that many attempts in them.

A healthy balance of authority and kindness as well as trust and confidence are the key factors in training horses, because the fact is these animals are considered to be gentle species. When teaching this gentle animal to follow your commands, it is very important not to break its spirit or abuse it in any way. Here are some tips on how to train horses. Click Here For Gentle Horse Training Instant Access Now!The best thing to do for one year old or younger horses is to work with a halter and lead line. It will be ideal to train your horse in ten to fifteen minute sessions daily, at the same time if possible. And keep in mind that animals train best if they are taught things the same time everyday. Reward it with pats and treats like grains, carrots or apples immediately when it walks or trots with you, lifts its feet or turns according to your directions. For two year old horses, a blanket, saddle and girth can now be introduced. Again, treats and rewards are very important as progress is made. If possible, drive the horse from behind, asking it to walk, trot, stop, or slow down. Get on the saddle fully when the horse is able to adjust with your weight. Gently slip both thighs around the saddle and put your feet in the stirrups. Ask another person to lead the horse on a lead line connected to a halter while you are sitting on the animal’s back. Say the verbal commands to walk, turn and stop. Then twist your legs slightly in the appropriate direction and work the reins to make horse turn. Make sure to work in short straight line patterns, curves or wide circles.Finally on how to train horses, have it trot in brief spurts after the horse starts obeying your commands to walk and turn. You may stay on a level surface or go uphill. However, it is not a good idea to go downhill until the gait is mastered. Once the trot is mastered, go to a lope. Again do not go uphill until the lope is mastered.

Finding For Horses In Your Price Range

Lots of people want horses, but they often times stop before they get started looking for one because they think horses are incredibly expensive.
It seems as if horses must be expensive because probably the only ones you’ve heard about are the famous ones – race horses or champion show horses whose prices commonly run into many thousands of dollars. But there is a vast selection within the range of average-income families. These are the horses, which give fun and friendship to thousands of children and to grownups, are all over the country.
For only $50 you can get your own horse. He’ll be a skinny, unkempt-looking animal, but you can feed and curry him back to health and turn him into a perfectly suitable family mount. And there’s always the chance that he may turn into a champion. Every now and again a weary-looking animal is rescued from misfortune by some keen-eyed horse or man – and soon that very horse is discovered to be a fabulous jumper who secures triumphs and trophies for his owner.
For $100-$150, you can get a quiet, sound animal which would probably be outclassed at bigger shows but which would do well enough for you in small country shows – in ‘hack’ (trail horse) and horsemanship classes.
If your family can afford it, about $300 is a good amount to count on spending. At that price, you can shop around a little and find yourself a horse with plenty of promise – one that will do well in shows but will not be too high-strung or frisky for a youngster to handle.
However, if you don’t think you can afford any outlay for buying a horse but you can afford to keep him (that is, feed and stable him), and if you have paddock space for him, there’s another possible solution. Don’t buy a horse at all; instead, get in touch with a large summer camp or riding academy and offer to take care of one of their horses after the camp season is over. Many camps realize how much young people love horses – and they would much rather have their animals given the attentive care of a loving child than send them off to public stables during the winter. For 10 months of the year you’ll have your own horse – and you won’t have to pay a cent beyond his keep to get him.
Naturally it’s helpful if you know your way around on a horse a bit because then you can see for yourself whether or not you like the gaits of the horse you are considering. You are in a position to rely on your own feelings for the horse’s possibilities rather than on the opinion of a friend. Still, it isn’t absolutely necessary for you to know how to ride before you buy. In fact, a quiet horse of your own – one that becomes used to you and fond of you – will help you improve your ability faster than practice on the sluggish, indifferent creatures you often come across at stables.

Good Western Racing Horses

Whenever the term “Western horse” is used, most people picture a rough-and-tumble rodeo – an event full of color but so full of danger, too, that no youngster would be permitted to enter the regular events. What few people realize is that many small, country horse shows have classes open to Western horses.

5 Tips To Properly Crate Train Your Dog

Crate training helps with housebreaking, helps with separation anxiety, and helps reduce destructive behaviors such as chewing, and it keeps your dog safe while you’re away.

Strong bounds between cats and humans

There are a lot of experts out there who say that cats are strictly independent animals. These very same experts state that cats have chosen to associate with humans due to their strategy of survival. Although many argue with this statement, there are many who agree as well — although those that agree are normally those in the percentile who don’t agree with cats.
