I love the history you share.

Another excellent lesson. Thank you Pat and Deb for doing what you do.

Glad to hear someone who supports the native American people.

The things you teach I know of mostly, but listening to you explain in your way makes it all so much clearer. It's like I got the idea from others I've ridden with and people I've watched but never really "got" until now. Thank you so much.

Genuinely enjoy listening to him speak

Thank you for your respect and honesty regarding the native Americans..

When I turn eighteen I am moving to Nevada to work on a ranch and every time I watch your videos I learn something new and one day I want to take a horse to the bridle

People say I have a lot of patience with horses. I never see it that way. I love being with them so every minute is a blessing no matter what.

As always I am in awe of how a simple job can become such a great teaching and learning experience for both the horse and human. Looks as if Chinaco is growing into that head of his head and his ears too. When he matures he is going to be a superb gentleman.

Thank you for the videos keep them coming learning from a lot from you

Pat, Thank you for sharing, your knowledge. My Grandfather passed a year ago, he was 93 born in Eastern Idaho 1925. He Survived the Great Depression, WWII (Army Ranger in the South Pacific) the crash of the Sheep Business (New Zealand Act). He made his living Horseback, & as a Youth, when not in school I spent every day horseback with him. I miss His Stories, adventures, & lessons about Cowboys, Horses, Cattle, & Life. I'm great full that you are will to share your knowledge, & lifestyle with the world. You keep sharing, & I'll keep watching, & Supporting your content.

Eye opening perspective I agree with wholeheartedly enjoy the videos look forward to every video posted. Thank you for passing on your knowledge

This was such a great video in so many ways! Thank you!!

Gracias a usted por tan bonita explicacion

Love the little exhale trick. I wish more horse people understood this technique and used it.

As my grandpa would say, " He smarter than any 10 men you can find". Love the perspective and that he isn't afraid to share it as his opinion. And not that it means much from a "dink" like me but this man is one heck of a horseman! lol

I enjoyed the story and the perspective.

Another good video.

Great video! If you don't believe what Pat is saying, go visit some housing on a reservation. It doesn't matter which one. I see it everyday in Oklahoma. Thank you Pat and Deb!

I agree with your opinion Pat, thanks for sharing partner.

I've been looking each day for your 2nd video on this topic. It was worth the wait. Thank you for sharing your thoughts in such a unique manner.

Chinaco what a great name

As always, I enjoyed your video. My mare keeps throwing 16H horses and my knees are getting older and getting on a tall horse is harder. I started teaching my horse to move towards me when I stand a Rock, stump, log, sidehill to make it easier for me to get one. So I had a special interest in this video.

Super! Thanks!

Wyoming and Oregon has some beautiful stock.

You must be enjoying making him from day 1 through to a trained horse. It is my favorite thing to do.

Great thoughts and views, I always learn from you Pat and Deb ! I am working with my 6 month John mule , and applying techniques and practices I am picking up from all !

When I was young I thought that all horses had to be rode down hard and physically abused to BREAK them ! That thinking come from watching some of the westerns on the TV, and I'm sure it was done plenty that way otherwise! When I got to be about ten years old I had a chance to see my father working with horses and how he done it...... that changed my whole way of thinking ! It takes tons of PATIENCE and being able to observe ! You sir have those qualities and I applaud the way you are trying to pass that on ! 👏 Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍 👍

As one who had the honor of owning and ridden a spade trained cow horse. All respect.

I agree ! On the wild horses and the native peoples ! Either take the time it takes or take the time to heal up :)

Hello Pat, This is very helpful to me as I have a 17 hand mare. Please tell me about the metal block you are standing on and what is the metal pipes in the video with the chain attached? My mare paws the ground so much you could plant a crop where she stands. Thank you Pat, hope you are healing well after your accident.

Love your videos! I hope I get the chance to ride with you some day

Exelente !!!♥️🏇

Thanks for the training, You are one hell of a cowboy/Vaquero/Buckaroo. Deb is a good Videographer and you are both good dancers :) First I have to say the BLM was given the short end of the stick. They were not allowed to do what was needed. BUT When it comes to ANY government agency (and this is from a US Navy and National Guard veteran and former cop, So I have some experience with Bureaucrats) The government is NOT capable managing ANYTHING. Unfortunately all government agencies have ONE GOAL: That is to INCREASE that agencies power BY getting bigger. SO no matter who (what government agency) is in charge of the wild horse program they will seek to increase their budget and personal so the head of the agency will be more powerful at the determent of the horses. Sad but I have seen it happen so many times. JUST MY OPINION and you know what they say about opinions... Thanks for all you do. Don

You are correct in using the term " Wild horse" " Mustang" is a misnomer.

Thank you for the facts and the common sense perspective on the "wild horse" program and yes, BLM did get the short end of stick. My Brother worked for BLM and it was a dilemma. I wonder if the public was restricted on having a steak due to no grazing because the Wild Horse program took priority. I love my horses and horses in general, but not to the detriment of grazing land. v

If one is doin' like this it is time spent very well on your horse....

The vast majority of the Feral horses in the west and primarily in the Greater great basin,where the herds are most populated,, are remnants of domestic stock..After the Taylor Grazing act of 1934 was passed ending open range grazing,All livestock was to be removed and grazing allotments implemented and allocated,before any could be reintroduced to public land..A lot of these animals,came from ranches that went under and or the stock was never branded.Some were even Govt remount stock..So,,Technically,there shouldnt be a wild horse issue,to deal with,if the Govt had done their job properly,according to the laws they passed...Up until the Wild horse and Burro act was passed,all unbranded feral horses on public range,were free to whoever could gather them and contrary to common belief,the numbers were managed by the Govt as well.My grandfather did it for the Govt for many years,long before the "Wild horse Annie Act" was passed...I actually Heard Velma Johnson,say before she passed away,that her activism and consequent laws stemming from such,may have created a monster that was not as beneficial as she intended..As i said in the comments of a previous video,,These animals are feral livestock,not wildlife and many of these activist that call for the removal of livestock from the public lands,should be careful what they wish for..Of course,they have come up with Pseudo scientific excuses to say they are not and are indigenous to the continent,in the evolved form they are now,and even have recruited some Native people,to speak on that behalf to convince the uneducated of this..Native History and scientific evidence does not support this claim however..I like to see some of them on the range as much as anybody,but their numbers have to be managed,but how that management is implemented is what drives a wedge between people and creates conflict....As Pat said,,People let emotion rule their belief and opinions rather than common sense and scientific fact..

I think it was in the military historical account called "Our Wild Indians", Dodge, who stated that someone from Mexico could ride a used up horse for two more months and an Indian could ride it for at least two more weeks after that. The War bridle might be a bit rough on the horse.

And we appreciate it!!!:) I love that COWBOYS watch....not 12 yr old girls who've never even ridden.

Mr.pat.you.are.

:29 the colt is standing quiet...not reaching, smelling the ground, fussing, etc. Is that rare for a young horse or do I just need firmer hands?

Living in Alaska I know so many Alaska native people & some are my friends. People think they all get money from the governments. They do have health care through the Alaska Native Tribal Heath Care Consortiom.. Some get money from their native corporation formed during the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. Some do not. I agree that the indigenous people of the US are the symbpl of the west.

What is a cow puncher ?

Sorry for all the comments...

We natives are far from the romance side of the west or any other part of the continent. We've suffered and still continue to suffer.

I like your "mustang" plan for Yellowstone, plus it will help feed all those "endangered" wolves, maybe take some pressure off the elk herd

17 H!? Who's his daddy? I missed that vlog.

At about 11:18 I see pat swinging rope at horse while chatting. Is that just desensitizing the horse? Must be I guess as horse not doing anything. Linda in OKC. trying to learn not criticizing.

The mare I asked about in the other video comments will do all this for me, but no one else (anyone else she rears up and strikes at). She still shows white eyes, and won't relax, but she tolerates it from me, even 3 years of working on things like this. Is there anything else I can do to get her to relax and be calm?

So if I'm reading between the lines correctly, we're spending expeditiously more money on equine habitat an well being, than humans( Native Americans). It's a little shameful where we focus our priorities... I lived next to reservations in Washington and Oregon.... Also have hauled Semi loads of "three strike" mustangs to pretty nice life time grazing, financed by tax payers.... The Indigenous horses are living better than our Indigenous Native Americans...

If you will read the book of mormon you will find that the native americans came here in three groups. One from Badgad and 2 from the MIddle east. It is a tragedy that I can't ride into the cedar trees without being attacked by a wild stallion and that the cow range is being ruined
