I'm not a bridal horse guy, just a rancher that has and has good ranch broke horses, I've taken in outside horses, and sent some home... I've haven't watched a more real and honest horseman that offers his insight, thoughts via social media than you... Larry was a nuckelhead that just wanted to fight( I observe the tail as much as the ears as indicators) and yes ranch... ( cutting is much different that NCHA... I appreciate you insight and teaching ( Peyton, Colo)

[@cristinacarrillo2857]

There are lots of horse trainer and good trainers ,but not all of them explain and say the truth of how things really are, thank you for being honest that speaks highly of you. saludos from Sonora

[@maliawilson756]

My favorite thing about you and this channel is the "I have all day." mentality. "when's it over? when its over."

[@tomhofer8996]

Love your additude on Larry to many good horses to wast your time on one that has been spoiled for years Thanks for all you show us learning from all the videos

[@3turnznhome]

I sure appreciate y’all putting these videos out. I was started by good horsemen I was younger but they are in very short supply these days and being able to watch and listen to good horsemen like you two, helps to keep my mind sharp and understanding for my critters. To many clinicians that try to teach you a “method” or sell you on a gimmick. What I have picked up from Pat is communication. I’ve always been complimented on my ability to read a horse but in the performance world that’s not real hard. But what these videos have done for me is Sharpen my ability to read my horses more thoroughly and helped me to be able to explain myself more clearly back to them. I’m a farrier, and my last master always told me 1/8 inch makes all the difference in the world, and these videos are giving me that 1/8 inch difference in my horsemanship. So thank y’all

[@mozelle1234]

It's been like Christmas getting so many of these videos. So much respect for what you do. I'd give anything to go to your clinics. Happy Thanksgiving soon. 💖

[@MALKooTH]

Those videos you made with Larry, especially the 'Roping Larry' series, were particularly impressive imo. So, in hindsight, he may have played his part in it all. He was a very good looking horse imo.

I like that, "never get in a pissin contest w a skunk."

[@ernestdarquea6378]

You are treasure chest of cowboy knowledge Pat. Thank you for sharing. Ernie D

[@kengamble8595]

Prieto is one of those that will only get better as time goes by when he's on the job. He's one that is willing to learn,...... Larry..... not so much ! I've worked the pens for a large feedlot and you sure don't want a horse with a bit of an attitude, it could get you hurt, or worse ! Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍

[@chelackie]

Glad Larry is home and that the lady is learning how to take him on from you and your immense knowledge.

[@codyandbarbarakillingswort5546]

I was given the advice of taking them down the fence to really get em setting back. Glad I heard you say the same as I thought

[@kimnenninger7226]

Great video as always. After years of riding I am just now learning this stuff. I can tell where the back feet are but I can't get the timing right for the front feet. When you say what seat bone you are sitting on, how to move your shoulder, and when and where to move your feet it is really helping me to learn this stuff. None of this stuff looked very complicated until I tried to learn it on my own horses. I suspect that some of them may already know what I am trying to do but unfortunately they do not suffer fools gladly. I may be working on this stuff for a while.

[@myearthlytreasures3]

Thank you once again! You video's make my day!

[@joelhamilton6720]

Timeless Sir

[@polopony2010]

..she’s going to be taking over the training.😂😂 done talking about that. 😂😂😂

[@colleenclem7337]

Thank you for step by step instructions.

[@Matt-gc6rg]

Thanks Pat

[@rs-bi8yf]

Thank you for another great video !

[@jebediahnightlinger6357]

Sharp horse! When he gets his topline muscles built up he's really going to be a looker!

[@silky2204]

Great video. Never saw this stuff presented this way.

[@joelhamilton6720]

Excellent

[@randolphlearning5255]

Right on Pat

[@joseduarte7281]

Fine looking horse

[@patrickroach7289]

Thanks for the video. I sure like the look and sound of that snaffle bit Pat. Could you share a bit on that?

[@PatnDebPuckett]

It’s a Missing Links Snaffle. Pat invented it a few years back and it’s available on our website www.thedisciplinedride.com/store . Thank you...

[@payntpot7623]

If they often switch off and become a bit dull after a month or so, and given an ideal world; would that be a good time to turn them out for a short break, or do you think it better to work through it? Or, does it depend on the horse? I ask because, I have found sometimes they come in from a break when learning with an new enthusiasm for what you have taught them prior to the break. I would value your thoughts on this. Thanks for posting. He really does have the makings of a nice handy horse for someone to partner up with in the future.

[@gabrielbello9715]

Excellent video as always! Just out of curiosity, does doing this with a cow help the horse understand what you’re asking better?

[@PatnDebPuckett]

Yes. It makes more sense when there’s a job to do.

[@iriscarrillo2572]

When you speak of collection is that when they lift their back or give into their face or what exactly is ir i'm new at this

[@ethanmcnary9119]

In a sense yes, but it is so much more complicated than that. Pat and Deb made a video about it a few months ago - I highly recommend you check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJnEdpmXapx0ibc

[@sacmunch]

I was really looking forward to a big transformation for Larry. I know you have a customer to think of and I agree with your decision. Are you still working with the bay mayor? Haven't seen her in a while

[@PatnDebPuckett]

We just got her back from her owner.

[@johnmccaughan4195]

LARRY Always sad to see a horse that has been ruined. Clinton Anderson my ___.

[@charlesfloyd107]

Can you give measurements of your roping dummy please

[@PatnDebPuckett]

The one we’ve been using in recent videos is a sawhorse from Home Depot with a board nailed on the top. The other one was made specifically to fit on our flatbed for going down the road so that one wouldn’t be anything you would need to copy. We’ll try to remember to go over ideal dimensions in a future video. As a separate suggestion, you can also use a folding chair to practice heel shots. Pat went to a Joe Wolter clinic many years ago and Joe said that if you can set a heel trap in between the legs of a folding chair, you were really doing something. It meant you could control the tip of your loop. You can also utilize children and dogs. Cats are tricky!

[@williecosgrove]

Still have that feeling about the dog food factory and Larry Could be sooner than i thought

[@jacobjudd9603]

Let's see some mule videos.

[@billswenson1435]

pretty horse. Could eat the oats out of the bottom of a 5 gallon bucket and still see the coyotes coming

[@AndersonCattleCo]

If the lady that will take over Larry's training was any good with him you would've never had him. Oh well the canners need horses to feed people in Europe.

[@chelackie]

Larry got spoiled and resentful because she was following an aussie trainer who is super harsh, but has a lot of followers (don;t know why) I think ,from what I have understood is that she will now be following Pat and his wise videos and hopefully will be able to turn him around. Not going to the kill pen. Yey!

[@conniekempf4050]

Am I the only one who thinks that horse looks...noble? (Trans: ugly😆) very nice color on him tho.

[@edwarnock4534]

I like him! After years of riding chunky quarter horses that could not go all day, I found that horses like Prieto, would be just as useful at the end of the day as he was fresh out of the corral. (Assuming the horse is accustomed and conditioned for that kind of work.) I used to gather on large grazing permits, where you often had to use what ever horse you had with you when you found cows. We tried to get into camp and change horses but some days that was not always possible. Prieto is an old school cow horse, what ever his breeding might be.

[@rafterL78]

Noble, lol. Nice way of saying it. I'd be curious to know his breeding . Looks quiet & willing but im used to the quarter type build myself. I can see those flat muscles holding out for all day's work tho.
