I'm Underacheiving

This has to be one of the most extensive sale videos in the history of sales videos.  I can't even get my horse to stop spooking at raindrops, and then there's this guy.

I laughed through most of this video. Maybe you should send Connor to this guy?

Jen said...

Right?!

Jen said...

Me too! He's so deadpan, I don't think it's meant to be funny, but it's hilarious. Connor would benefit from his methods for sure.

Walter and his owner/trainer are awesome, love it!! In all seriousness though, I'm starting to think a lot of this might be picking the appropriate horse. I've done nothing different with Bridget than Ginger, but Bridget pretty much is Walter, where Ginger is...not, even with more and better training/world exposure. And I'm OK with that :)

Jen said...

Oh for sure, I absolutely agree. They are individuals with different personalities and he won't be able to turn every horse into a kayak-dragging champion. But it's still fun to watch!

T said...

It's so fun! I want to take Walter home :)

Walter is amazing. Four years old and knows so much! Sold for 50k too. I also feel like an underachiever.

Kelly said...

Wow - I want to send Fergie to this guy!

Thanks for posting. What a lovely horse. :D Apparently Walter sold for 50k!

Karen said...

Well now I feel like a total slacker.

Lola said...

Those two are so chill :)

I really love that when he has the horse lay down it goes in for snacks. These are all super impressive if also somewhat hilarious. I don't think I could get Val to be ok with any of those things except laying down to be closer to snacks.
