Groundwork Guys Mini-Series Ep#5: How to Help a Horse...

Dear Horse World ·

2025/11/18

Some horses come with a few challenges. This one came with a list. In this episode of Ground Work Guys, Nick and Tik meet a mare who pulls back when tied, rushes off the trailer, fidgets for the farrier, and gets jumpy around the saddle. Instead of diving straight into solutions, they do what they do best: take a step back and look at the bigger picture. What unfolds is an honest, funny, and surprisingly tender conversation about trust, patience, and why most training problems are really just

Meg writes in about her daughter's experienced 1.25m jumper who's suddenly backing off liverpools (water jumps), and the Groundwork Guys, Tik Maynard and Nick Rivera, dig in to help rebuild his confidence from the ground up. They start where all good training starts: ruling out pain. From there, they look at what the horse is telling them through his reactions, his body, and the way he thinks about the task. They unpack how fear can look like enthusiasm, why overjumping isn't confidence, and how the

Some horses just do not do spray bottles. One sound, one mist, and it is all over. In this episode of Ground Work Guys, Nick and Tik meet an 18-hand draft mare who panics at the very idea of being sprayed. Even hearing a bottle on the other side of the trailer is enough to send her sky-high. Instead of fighting through fear, they talk about how to rebuild trust one sense at a time. You will hear them unpack why spray bottles can feel like predators to horses, how to take the mystery out of the

If your horse likes to stand a little too close for comfort, you know how fast "friendly" can turn into "please step back." In this episode of Groundwork Guys, Tik Maynard and Nick Rivera unpack what's really going on when a horse ignores your space and why calling it bad manners might be missing the point. They dig into the difference between respect and fear, and how to build a boundary that feels fair, not forceful. The conversation moves from the science of horse behavior to the art of staying

Season One of Dear Horse World changed the way so many of us think about riding and about ourselves. But there was no way to fit all the mic-drop moments into one episode, so here is Part Two. This is an honest look at what it truly takes to grow with your horse, not just to train harder. We’re talking about the uncomfortable but transformative shifts that distinguish simply "riding" from genuine partnership. You’ll hear: Josh Nichol on why leadership isn’t control. It’s learning to be calm when

Matt Brown has ridden at the top of the sport. But when he watched a replay of one of his proudest rounds, he didn’t see a confident partnership—he saw a horse responding to pressure, not trust. That moment changed everything. In this episode, Matt joins us to talk about why he stopped carrying a whip in eventing competitions—and how that decision opened the door to something deeper: leadership, vulnerability, and the quiet reckoning that happens when tradition no longer aligns with who you want to

Now consider this—what if the future of healing wasn’t in prescriptions and routine protocols, but in something far more powerful? For decades, groundbreaking therapies like stem cells, ozone therapy, and PRP have been transforming human medicine. But in the horse world?

Every horse owner knows the feeling: walking through the field, chasing after a horse that won’t come, sensing that disconnect not just with the horse, but with life. It’s more than just a training issue—it’s a reflection of something deeper, a desire for connection and harmony that feels out of reach. Being around horses is about more than riding—it’s about finding peace, balance, and a deeper bond. Many people long for that connection, not only with their horses but also with themselves,
