Caniambo Clinic Part 1

[@lisag378]

Please, Please, PLEASE. Don't retire on us. Ever. Your knowledge is so vital that it should be regarded as an international treasure. Thank you so much for helping us be better, for the sake of the horses. God bless you both.

Love the very first part of this. I have people ask me all the time to teach them to ride all the time and I tell them all the same thing. Whenever you are serious. You are serious when you get over wanting to snuggle with your pretty pony and decide you want to teach your horse something. You have to be prepared to set some expectations and hold your horse to them.

[@kevinmccabe1423]

I have been watching these videos for a few evenings now. I have been off my horse for 2 days now and can hardly wait to get back on. Thank you.

[@mattheighman7210]

I wish there were more Ol’ Timers around like you my friend. When men like this talk, you best shut your mouth and listen. Appreciate you and the videos.

[@lorituttle4473]

Yes! This

[@janiespurrier1555]

Awesome. Love Pat and his humor. What a horseman! Thanks for sharing Deb.

[@lilboltz1271]

I never thought to salt my bit will definitely do this in the summer. Since I'm in Buffalo Ny not sure about the winter since they will freeze and I warm by bit with my hands before I bridle...Thank you! I truly enjoy your videos and pick up something new with every one. Please, keep them coming

[@barbedstar6480]

What a wonderful way to spend a half hour of my life on a beautiful Sunday morning! The humor, the skill, the directness and compassion for the horses in correcting past training calmly....was almost in tears of appreciation as this video ended. Thanks for this great video Pat and Deb!

[@StuckInNy]

Thank you for uploading this video. I watched it twice. I'm going back to one of your related videos on the 3 hand positions. Many thanks.

[@mrsgiddyup]

Seriously you have such and Aussie dry humour just love it

[@BBurt775]

This is an amazing video and I am excited for part 2-100+. Thank you from Lovelock Nevada.

[@troybarbare9191]

Pat I really enjoy your videos, you tell it like it is and I get lot out of watching them

[@Shandougla]

Many thanks, for all your words of experience and wisdom. Top job, Sir.

[@phoebesmith5081]

From watching this channel for a while Ive learned some mind blowing things it's almost 2 am here and I think I've watched so many videos I think I may have to restart my horse 😂

[@AndyTheCornbread]

Really beautiful horses at these clinics.

[@skyrocketcoast219]

Fabulous session! Fascinating actually. Thanks

[@cheryl5992]

Excellent, thanks. Please come back again soon

[@janmutchler7355]

This was fabulous! Bring on Part 2!

[@suzanneyorkville]

I am so looking forward to part 2. Not sure if it was just my imagination but the second horse sure looks tight in the back end to start and it was interesting to see how it loosened up as you rode it. Just love you.

[@lisathewhitewolf]

Thank you for sharing this with us. Love a little old-cowboy wisdom. :) And believe me, I'll be applying it. I did learn one trick elsewhere to fix that trying to lope. You wait till they make the mistake, then shut them down by bending to a stop. That way you're not having to fight them with the reins so much. :) Just thought that was something you might want to know about. Also...if you can give us any uncut video versions I'd adore that, because then I can watch what you do through the whole thing. Not everyone's going to have the patience for that, but I intend to become a true horseman and I am getting a LOT of help from you. On a side note, my Grandpa would have loved you and I have a lot of respect for you both.

[@randolphlearning5255]

Good clinic very clear. Thanks Deb and Pat.

[@kengamble8595]

Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍

[@Dunolly3472]

Was a delight to meet you both in person Pat and Deb. I still have the score sheet :-)

[@valeriehudson7276]

that 2nd horse never stopped its tail from swishing . . very annoyed good lesson Pat thanks . . watching while my new knee is healing - v

[@jonathanberrong8522]

Glad to hear from y'all. Take care.

[@alejandrosanchez6683]

Your videos are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with everyone through here. I appreciate it a lot A big thanks to both of you. On minute 22:10 approx. Pat mentioned a comment related to Dressage and about a king telling soldiers to never back up. I’m serious to know more about it, can you say what king was ? Or where can I find more info about it. Pat also mentioned that Because of all the revolutions Mexico has had they never surrender so they never back up ? So horses in Mexico don’t back up or was he talking about the king ? Thanks

[@danemoore9277]

First like and comment. Thanks for the vid Deb!

[@johnmcfadden9732]

"Puss-gutted" and "stump-headed dink", and that about a horse you seem to like... Too funny Pat, and the waltz was amazing. Well done... (are you still in the land of Oz or headed home??)

[@ridendurance]

When Pat talked about spreading your hand and touching the orbits he was turned away from the camera..., can you explain this again at some point. So much value in this one comment but I was unable to see what he was sharing with us. Thank you so much.

[@naturalhorse2]

At 16:25, you talk about putting your fingers on the orbit of the eye...it's hard to see what you're doing. Could you elaborate on that technique? Thanks!

[@PatnDebPuckett]

When Pat centers a horse, he places his hand on the horse’s forehead with his little finger on the orbit of the horse’s left eye and his thumb on the orbit of the horse’s right eye. Hope this clarifies.

[@Fd-gk5hc]

Beatiful horse

[@snsranchcoltstarter]

I think it's great. You can get away with saying the things you say I've talked like you for. Many years in boy I could be the hardest. Meanest don't bring it across and understanding political correct way, and of course they get mad like you said, they'll cry they'll leave and I'll say you're no good SOB. But at the end of the day the horse is always telling on them. And then shows what you're doing is right and I appreciate that. That's great. Love it. Keep it coming.

[@danielfields7704]

So true, they can kill you... I took on "clients" at one time... I told a gal her horse and her was not a good fit, she was unwilling to be the boss.... Long story short she went a group trail ride in Wyoming (the horse had a problem in a crowd) she was flown out by flight for life.... You need this honest communicator in the business...

[@MrSanteeclaus]

Horse seem to turn back nicely

[@michaelmccaffrey2731]

Is that PDM stables in Bakersfield California?

[@PatnDebPuckett]

No. It’s in Caniambo, Victoria, Australia.

[@michaelmccaffrey2731]

@@PatnDebPuckett oh wow, good for you all. God bless you in these last days. I used to live in Bakersfield and now I live in Oklahoma

[@julieroberts1604]

Im trying to figure out what you mean by, "ride a horse over here, not over here. That means you re only riding half of a horse.". I was trying to see what you were doing but couldnt figure it out.

[@julieroberts1604]

You mean close to the rail?

[@PatnDebPuckett]

Yes. When you ride on the rail, you use the fence as a crutch. By riding off the rail by 6-8 feet, you have to ride both sides of the horse.

[@lindatruitt7858]

At about 25 in not clear why Pat corrected horse. Please explain. Linda in okc.

[@PatnDebPuckett]

The horse was dull to Pat’s leg and did not respond to his request to move laterally. So he turned up the heat until the horse yielded. Then he was able to be more subtle with the subsequent cues. We find this is a problem with some people just laying their heel against the horse’s side and hoping to get a response. Also, the owner of this particular horse rides in those rubber heeled lace up riding boots, the kind that look like athletic shoes, and no spurs. So this horse had learned to ignore her.

[@eldenbegay7219]

This side of your attitude is never seen before but it is kind of disappointing of your attitude. Having smart remarks we viewers never seen before

[@PatnDebPuckett]

I’m sorry you misinterpreted Pat’s remarks. He is well known for his humor and sarcasm and his students all understand that it’s all in good fun and meant to encourage people to laugh at themselves and each other.
