Constructive feedback here. B1 has immensely helped my training on my horses. 

However, when my horse has a specific issue, the search function is rarely useful. I usually give up and find the equivalent free video B1 has posted on youtube and even then I cant search the main site to find the extended version of the same video I found on youtube (even when I now i know the title of the video!) 

Very frustrating, and limits the utility of the service for me.

Have a great 7 year old gelding part Hancock QH.  Smart, curious, all the things you'd want except one.  He already has arthritis in right hock. Nothing in a PPE and no real issue for nearly a year but now it's a clear issue.  He can walk all day up and down small hills but with a rider anything more is painful...he'll do it if I push after extended warm up but it doesn't go far.  

I'm asking for some recommendations.  

1. He is protective of that side(his right) so I've been doing more from that side to help him get more comfortable with it. On his left he is great with sidepass...but his right is just sticky.  Any recommendations with that?

2. Since he has arthritis, I've focused on making him the best at what he can do and that's led to obstacles. I don't have access to much land and we're usually riding alone. Would love recommendations beyond the standard obstacles and any other activities to engage his feet and mind.  

Thanks very much.

Hi there from Germany where THINGS are really very different concerning horselife..so maybe this question seems weird to you since your horses might be used to travel and change barns and buddies regularly...Ok. After a longer time and a bad last experience (going to hospital) my 2 horses didn't want to go on trailer anymore..now i unexpectedly have to change the stable next week and managed to have some good training sessions for trailer loading this week so we can actually travel to the new barn on monday. I wonder if i should go on with trailer training right away next day there regardless of all the changes or better let them 'arrive' a couple of days that will be emotionally quite messy anyway (new stable, new buddies, etc ect..) Hope you get what i mean 🤪

I met a client with a 4 year old mare that is shaped like a snake, nose to tail, at a resting position. 

right hind goes out, left in, right front goes out, and left front goes in. Her neck curves out to the left and her head tilts in I  would just like some advice on how to tell if this horse should be riden like this or not

Brad here from Wyoming.  Just bought the membership today.  I have a colt that has just turned 3 in June.  He has been used by a cowboy in the sale barn/sorting pens for the last year.  He has also drug some calves and doctored a couple cows.  He is very calm and my 11 year old daughter has been riding him.  He has been ridden in a snaffle with some shanks but he isn’t doing great in that for us.  I plan on going back to an o-ring snaffle to start working with him. My daughter is starting with a great cow horse trainer for lessons in a couple weeks on him.  My question is what ES20 series should I start with this horse?  All the way back to “colt starting” or start with “snaffle bit”?  Thank you for any help!

How's you summer going?   Too hot and dry or just right?  Are you spending more time mowing grass or riding?😂

What are some things you do for your horse if they don’t sweat in the extreme heat, but behave as normal?  Anything other than cold hosing, lots of fresh cool water & electrolytes, shady trees & fans? Just concerned with heat indexes up to 110 degrees. Thanks!
