Thank you for the explanation of how the horses think, and love all the stories.

This Man is very Wise .

Thank you Pat for your kind words about Rick. Like you he was one of the last real ones. Love to you and Deb.

Sorry for the loss of your friend. The good ones always go too soon.

All well said!!! Much wisdom!!!

Thanks for your teaching. I look forward to your next video with this horse.

He definitely reacted differently to you and Gabby!

My condolences on the loss of your friend.

Deb, your music selections for each video are great! I always have to shazam them so I can see who it is. I have found some new music to listen to through you!! Keep it up. Sometime the more non mainstream the better!! Keep up the great work! You to Pat!! ;)

Excellent. Been waiting. Thanks y'all

❤love the video...GOD BLESS 🙏

Top shelf ! Thank You.

Great instruction, thanks

Enjoy learning from you thank you

Oh that horse, very demonstrative subject and because of his color and physique, an interesting watch. There appears to be some real intelligence behind those eyes, so-to-say. Only guessing, he’ll attach to one rider and be very loyal but hand him off to another rider and always in the back of your mind, “rider be aware” ?? Can he react around other riders and be calm/relaxed ? What do you think…

I wish I had his wisdom with my lunit mare 😅

Adorable horse!❤ and you're doing this because??!!??

Thank you again

❤

Lol, 5:00 those armchair "equestrians" who had a few pony rides at the county fair think they know enough to tell Pat that a horse in his care is looking skinny. Wow, just wow.

Thanks for sharing. If I was to do this by myself, would I just work a while on the left eye & then on the right eye & keep doing this exercise until my horse didn't react?

I adopted a 8 year old Devils Garden Forest Service mustang mare over 2 years ago and she is still wild (can not be approached or haltered). We have 11 other mustangs, but this mare is different. We did rope her and with that neck pressure I was able to kind of sneak a halter on her last December. I have been working with her about an hour a day to get her to let me touch her and extend that touch. I can never get her to just let me approach her, I have to give her a tug on a long lead line attached to her halter to get close. In May, she bolted into me when her off eye caught my little finger cross her topline as I was scratching her back, standing just behind her front right leg, close to her. She clobbered me, knocking me hard to the ground and kicking me as she passed over me. The thing is that she could have gone forward, but instead went right into me. That was two months ago and I am still hurting from the fall, my tailbone, my back, my neck...she has taken away a lot of my confidence. I cut her halter off after a few brief sessions, and have not worked with her since. She has become more wild again. We can not get anywhere near her in her 24 by 24 foot pen, although she will come up for a handful of grass, but we can not walk up to her. Sometimes her approach will turn into a spook and she leaves instead of taking the grass. Other times she just refuses to come to you. She will never let you go up to her without that rope pressure. I have no idea why. If we rope her, we can pull her around, but not tie her or usually halter her. I have used a cane pole, done some rope tossing at her like you were doing, and moved her around her small paddock. Nothing seems to get her over her fear. I have an opportunity to send her to a wild horse sanctuary. Should I give up and take the offer? TR

Would it be detrimental to do this exercise in a round pen with the horse able to move off as opposed to tying him.? Would you get the same result eventually ? I guess what i am asking is, does the tying make a difference in the outcome of this step in nis training? Thanks if you can explain. I have never done well with fearful horses.

Is Gabby a novice horse owner?

At what point in training shoould a horse be relaxed about being caught? I find they can be a little standoffish when they know I want to work with them.

Is Gabby left handed? She is coiling left handed and throwing left handed? Throwing right handed might be easier.

WHY ?

Flag work is your friend

Anybody that has raise a lot of horses knows that horses often get their temperament from their genetics, not from abuse. I get pretty tired of fools that think every horse with a touch me not attitude has been abused . It’s always people that have worked with a small handful of horses and think that somehow makes them an expert . Why don’t you people listen to someone who has started hundreds or even thousands of colts and try to learn what the teacher has to say for once and maybe there’d be a chance of a snowball in hell of you getting past your ignorance .

I prefer Ryan Rose.

Old fashioned style ,a human predator dominating a confined prey animal, aggravating all its natural instincts until the exhausted animal submits. Just because he can. This horse may eventually become inured to this, and put up a wall for protection. It will obey you,, but it will never bond to you, never try it's best for you, never be glad to be around you. Never give it's trust to you, willingly and gladly. And you will never be able to fully trust it. It will remember every time you made it flinch, forever. Prey animals understand predators completely. Their lives have always depended on it.

This should be called. How NOT to rehabilitate a fearful horse. Poor horse.

Would you trust somone who approaches you silently not one word with a rope making eye contact but not trying to communicate with you. NO people forcs animals to read them with no help THATS THE HATD AND LONG WAY.

Interesting y'all, would like to know his backstory on what made him so fearful? Keep going to Group, its taking the tarnish off. Might just turn you into a woke cowboy some day y'all?

Sorry for the loss of your friend.
