Hi Richard really enjoying your videos and gaining some new techniques. My wife just brought home a 4 year old Off Track Thoroughbred. I have got her in round pen a couple of times now, but she pays absolutely no attention to the flag. Am I wrong with starting her at zero as if she was a colt? Should I move on to on-line training? Any tips on working an OTB.


Mamaw and Marshall finally got outside. Starting off with a walk about.
I'd like to start some traditions on here starting with acknowledging birthdays. You guys game? Post your birthday and we'll send out a gift when it comes around. I'll start, December 2.
Just wanted to give some feedback Richard Boatwright on your weekly emails, I like to call them “Richard’s Ramblings” and that’s meant in a complimentary way, really useful incites and quite often thought provoking texts, I for one do appreciate them and I know how busy you are on the ranch and how much time and effort and thought you put into your horses, thanks for taking the time to send out these emails
Anybody here planing on or thinking about going to Richard's Colorado clinic?
So, I'd liken my little filly the most to Ike, with her visceral responses to things. When will you have more videos of jumpy Mr. Ike, and how you've worked with and through his nature of being jumpy and suspicious? Thank you!
I'll use this post to add a little brag though, I rode the filly on Sunday and other than her (pretty standard) initial "ahhh!" when you first sit up there, she did great - even with my neighbors hooting, hollerin', and blowing off fire extinguishers. Free desensitizing clinic! :)
Richard Boatwright It is almost spring here in Indiana. The horses are fresh and as we start riding again I am looking for groundwork exercises or exercises to just see where my horses minds are at before I get in the saddle.
I am watching your snaffle bit series currently and loving it but what exercises or checks do you do to help ensure your horse has gotten the fresh off before you get on?
I struggle with keeping things organized on this community page. If you guys have asked a question and didn't get an answer, it could be that I couldn't find it or you couldn't see the answer easily. Go ahead and shoot us an email at info@b1horsemanship.com if you don't get an answer within a day or two. Thanks for your patience!
