Training a horse can be a challenge. Follow along as I train Jessie using Natural Horsemanship principles. Jessie is a Foundation Quarter Horse born in 2000. Most of the what I learned about horses and horsemanship has come from studying Clinton Anderson's Downunder Horsemanship although I've taken several clinics, studied other trainers, and worked with other horses. Follow along and share our experiences.

My Year-end Tribute To Jessie
Each year I try to compile some of the unused video and photos we've shot to put together a montage of our year. This year I put the video to a mashup of my favorite "Downunder Horsemanship" songs. (My audio editing still leaves much to be desired) Some of these clips where from our ill-fated movie, "The Method is Bogus", a sarcastic look at the training technique. Yes, we had a script and everything. Unfortunately, we were well into production when we learned that I cannot act, and the project was put on hold.
Other than that there was not a whole lot to choose from as 2011 was a year where I worked more on my photography than my videography. Looking back I didn't realize how many times I stood up on her. Jessie is such a good horse and continues to be a shining light in my life.

That was THE BEST!!! I LOVED it! We need to do a video like this! I agree with you about a horse being the shining light of your life...we often say that about our two :) we like them much more than most people we know! ha!
anyways, You and Ranae really inspire me to try more and more with Cadet and Speedy.
Today, Speedy FINALLY *GOT* it in the round pen,just an exercise, but he finally got it! I really felt quite successful and he made me look like I know what I am doing, he makes me shine and I only hope that I make him as happy as he makes me!
Happy New Year to you both! good riding!
Great video John!
