Вставка

- In this video, Pat works Larry on the ground and addresses problems that were created by the overuse of a stick. He compares the way Larry responds to groundwork exercises to the way Chinaco responds to the same exercises. Pat also talks about the type of flag he likes and how it's made. Then, he takes the opportunity to show how he likes to fit a bosal.

Long story,,,haven’t ridden in over 50yrs, I’m 73 now and I acquired a 25 yr old 17 hand Percheron 1650lbs (X calèche horse) I have not been doing very much other then feeding, brushing and turning him out to pasture during the summer mths. He prefers staying outside during the winterr but has access to the barns shelter. Oh yeah he has Wobblers , and has a difficult time getting up, but a lot better now that he is in my care. I am going to ride him and he is rideable But I am scarred just to be so high up..the saddle I will be buying is a Kent & Masters all purpose saddle.. I do intend on just walking maybe a trot if I feel brave. I do enjoy your videos, hope I can pull it off without breaking any bones. I retired 3 yrs ago and moved closer to my horse so I have a daily routine with him and his buddies..
I had to rewind.... couldn't hear a thing you said while I was laughing & snorting so hard at "this high grade....broom stick. They're $19.95 in case your wondering.... " throws stick out of corral. "String comes in 3 colors". Good grief that was hilarious. I have this problem with my mare because someone overused a whip on her back heels from the ground and the saddle. Her nose & front quarters are constantly in my space and she whips her hindquarters around like she just got stuck with cattle prod set on kill mode. She's been greeted with the flat of my hand numerous times. Will get to work with her on skills taught in this video. She's got to get past this whip mental block. 2 weeks ago she blew sky high when she thought I touched her rump with a whip when she felt a rope touch her. So thankful I wasn't in the saddle. This same person who used the whip also used a spade bit when I told him 'don't put a bit in her mouth'. You guessed it. He was on the ground in .01 seconds.
Never commented on a video, done a restaurant or hotel review in my entire life, but felt like I had to comment your video's. Absolutely love the common sense approach and dry sense of humor.
When told to do a task, one wants the horse to respond, not react.
Thank you for the great explanation of the bend and correct way of sending. You explain things because you want us to know and don’t talk down to folks.
Thanks so much for this video. I have a new horse( his name is Larry also) who I have tried to get away from the flag. Every time I have a lesson, they want me to use the flag because " he's lazy"'. I don't think he is, I agree with what you said about the flag making him move his hindquarters away. I have tried pointing the flag to his belly, so he would shape around it. I can see what I have to do now. I want him to move on a feel, but he doesn't pay attention. I see him so differently than everyone else who has known him, and his previous owner, who had him since birth until age 13. I've had him for 2 years and I feel like he started out good, but we are not connecting. I am used to using very little pressure, and he will ignore me. Everyone says I need to be harder, firmer on him. I have never done that, I'm 64, and I"m not going to start now. Well, he is getting used to light cues, but it's really taking time. My last horse was green broke and I worked with him doing a lot of groundwork, what I would call properly. And he would do anything on just a feel. I know my new horse knows this stuff, so this video has really encouraged me. (I didn't mean to write a book. lol)
What's not to like when a man teaches his student with honest love. Then he uses gentle coaxing so the horse know's that he can trust this human. A BEATING IS A BEATING. But love and patients will always win out and you will always end up with a better partner. Pat you are a very SAVVY gentleman. That is why you and your partner Deb are together so long. I like both of you people. I know you are easy to converse with. Take care i watch your videos cause i love the horse as well.
Like you? I thought it was love at first sight.
Another great video! Thanks Pat & Deb! Love all the high tech tools. Theres no reason to buy a $40 carrot stick if you can make one with stuff you already have. Laura
This is exactly what my 9 yo gelding does. After first viewing of this video I tried your method and got very frustrated at his lack of willingness to just go forward. Watching this video again, to learn how better to teach him the 'feel'. My horse DOES NOT go forward in a round pen. I now realize I used a weapon, not a tool. YIKES. I've tried the 'here it comes' (ask, ask again, here it comes!) with a lunge whip with extremely little positive results. He just moves his hindquarters away and becomes defiant. He will move better swinging a rope, though. He is a good horse under saddle; knows leg cues and all. But I need to go back to 'rebuild that connection'. Questions: 1. What do you mean by "all the humans time is spent on the left" and why does that make him hesitant on that side? 2. Do you think physical stature has any bearing on the horse? I'm 5'4, you are 6'4 and can look him in the eye when his head goes up. Thanks, Larry.
I'm in love with Larry. He's a looker and cool.
Thanks for the breakdown of fitting bosal to each horse.
Hello Pat and thank you for this video. It`s the first one that I have come across that shows how to work thru with an unco-operative horse. I am 82 yrs of age and still riding green horses. I have been a breeder of Arabian horses for 35 yrs. I don`t ever seem to stop working on and trying to improve my training techniqus with these horses. As an older trainer, you have given me a whole different background as where many of these ideas came from. Again, thank you and your wife for all of the hours that you give to helping all of us that are not as far along with our horses that we would like to be. You make us better for what we attenpt to do.
A number of yrs ago...I heard a gentleman say, “that man is a class act”, over the road of life I’ve come to understand his statement...and here is a fine example. Pat (and Deb), please excuse my use of informalities in using your first names without really knowing you folks, but you are a class act.
Look for the feel. I do not ever get tired of listening to your lessons. Thank You.
PAT,LOVE WHEN YOU SPEAK SPANISH, THE SOUND OF YOU VOICE AND YOUR ATTITUDE ,ADIOS VAQUERO AMIGO!!! GREETINGS FROM JALISCO,MEX.
