Horse Video
Great For Equine Education, Instruction, and Entertainment
A horse video can be placed in a couple different categories depending
on the content. The two big categories of horse videos we will be
looking at are those for training or instruction and entertainment.
Educational videos are those that include helpful training techniques
or instruction for basic care information. All are helpful to build the
knowledge of the horse owner.
Entertaining videos include movies that many of us horse lovers
remember watching as kids. Some of which may have inspired you to
become a lifetime horse addict.
This is a simple way to categorize the topic of horse videos though
there are a variety of videos available at your fingertips.
Educational Videos
Many horse owners and enthusiasts are on a constant search for more
information about their horse. An educational horse video can help you
with anything from the basics of grooming and feeding to advanced
training techniques to help in the show ring.
Here are a couple examples of some helpful educational videos.
Training Videos: Videos of
this nature are very
helpful for those looking for help in working with your horse. Training
videos cover the very basics of horse training such as ground work, up
to advanced finishing techniques to help you polish your horse for a
show.
Training videos with basic training instruction can include topics such
as:
- Lunging
- Leading
- Basic Ground work
- Basic Commands Under saddle
Training videos with more advanced topics for showing can include
topics such as:
- Showmanship
- Horsemanship
- Trail
- Western Pleasure
- Hunter Under Saddle
These are only a few ideas to get you thinking on what may suit your
current training needs. There are obviously many other topics that can
be covered in a horse video to help you and your horse.
Instructional Videos:
Instructional videos are those
that may be helpful in areas other than training your horse. These
videos may help to teach you basic grooming and horse care.
They may also offer information on choosing the right vet or farrier,
choosing the right horse, and even information on how you can keep
yourself in shape to ride and work with your horse.

Entertainment Videos
Many
of us can remember a favorite horse movie that we grew up loving.
These movies may have shaped us and hooked us into the wonderful world
of horse ownership.
These classic horse videos are typically stuck somewhere in our movie
collection and we get them out on those rainy days when we need a
little pick-me-up or walk down memory lane. Nothing else may help you
feel like a kid again than watching your favorite horse movie!
In fact, many of our favorite are being remade into higher quality
DVD's. Here are a few examples of some favorite equine movie title:
- Black Beauty
- Seabiscuit
- National Velvet
- The Silver Stallion
- The Horse Whisperer
- The Black Stallion
There are many more horse movies created every year, but the above list
encompasses some classic favorites!
There are other entertaining videos available for viewing thanks
to the internet. Many owners are posting videos of their own horses
doing something funny or interesting at home, or videos shot at a
recent show.
