Noya’s Journey: The Accidental Hippophile’s Mustang Dream Day 2 – Desensitization and Saddling

Noya's Journey

In the second day of training Noya, Shapour’s wild Mustang, the host of The Accidental Hippophile channel, starts by working on desensitizing the mustang with all over her body. This is an important step in training any horse, as it helps them become accustomed to being touched and handled in different areas, making it easier to work with them in the future.

After completing the desensitization process, Shapour moves on to saddling Noya. This is another important step, as it helps the horse to become accustomed to the weight and feel of a rider on their back. Shapour starts by putting the saddle on Noya, but not fastening the cinch too tight, to ensure that Noya is comfortable with the saddle. Once she is comfortable, Shapour fastens the cinch for the second time, but this time a bit tighter.

Next, Shapour moves on to the round penning exercise. This exercise is essential for training a Mustang as it helps them to learn the basic commands of walk, trot, and canter. Shapour uses the lariat and soft leg pressure to get Noya to move in the direction he wants her to go. This exercise is also important in helping the Mustang understand that cantering is part of their job, and that they should not get into the habit of bucking every time they are asked to canter.

Shapour also works on flexing the head and neck of Noya, which is important in helping the Mustang to understand that they should not resist when their head and neck are being moved. By the end of the day, Shapour is able to get Noya to give him “two eyes,” a sign of respect in horse language.

By the end of the day, Shapour has accomplished a lot with Noya, and she is showing signs of progress and understanding. However, Shapour knows that training a Mustang is a long and difficult process, and that consistency and patience are key to success. He will continue to share his journey and tips with his followers, providing valuable insights and advice for those who are also training a Mustang.
