"If your birthday cake looks like a brush fire", HAHAHA Pat's vernacular is priceless, as is his wisdom concerning horses.

Absolutely stunning that grey horse.

Precisely what a person needs for a job like this. That horse is perfect for this... strong, strong, strong. Solid as a rock!

Great work. Having another horse as calm as that lovely grey helps youngsters understand giving to pressure and not panicking. I see so many people just terrorize young horses, sometimes unintentionally, by overloading them or trying to teach them things when they're too scared of humans to do anything but fight to escape. Those are the horses that appear to learn, but have flashbacks and pull back or flip out all their lives. A good start like this is so important

Thank you Pat! Actually raised on a ranch! Not for fun, But for keeping food on the table, A way of survival! Thank you for telling us the truth about horse nature and such! No money frills ever intended by you Pat, and Bride!

Just beautiful! The music is soothing, and the way Pat works with horses relaxes me so much. I love listening to the way he explains things; always so calm and with great humility and sense of humour. His calmness is rubbing off on me and is helping me with my new PRE gelding enormously. Thanks to Deb too for filming it all, and her good-humoured comments from behind the camera.

I just Love watching these Techniques Mr. Puckett uses. I dont have my horse yet , But Ill sure know how to handle it when I do get it. I can watch these video uploads all day and never get tired. I want to learn everything he teaches . I might just get the pencil n paper out to make sure I have every word he says. He is what I call a Master Horse Whisperer. God Bless Him and His Family. Thanks for sharing these Treasures.

That's one way to accomplish halter breaking. I prefer a less traumatic method. I wish there weren't so much choking down involved. But you got the job done.

What a treat this morning, many thanks!

I admire , enjoy and respect you more each day Sir.

Great to watch Pat being his expert, professor self training people for that long. Am partial to a dun or buckskin, so the scenery and horse were bonus eye candy.

What horse is Pat on? He is amazing to look at!

I sure don't know how I found your channel, but I am really glad that I did. I have watched a few videos I subscribed to your channel and look forward for ever post. God bless you both ❤

Pat Puckett...I have been enjoying your training methods for two years now! I purchased a horse in 2020 that had no back up or leg response. I barrel race and need that. Your videos helped me apply those to my horse and we HV been very successful. Thank you for all you do.

Chinaco has matured so beautifully cannot take my eyes off him. Much to my shagrin , I cannot have a horse and at 79, that’s likely a good thing. Your Chinaco was a joy to watch grow up on his way to becoming a Californio. Really enjoy your babbling and all the wisdom they convey. Deb, you do a wonderful job of filming, editing and music selection.

I start colts for a living. I am from nw missouri, basically iowa Kansas. I tend to always come back to this video for an idea or refresher on something I already knew. If Pat could ever go more in depth about areas he finds real important in the halter breaking and early stages I would much appreciate that. Have a great new year!

So brilliant

Obviously what you're doing is working. I'm assuming you have limited time with this colt and that's why you're moving him along so quickly, and with the strength of your saddle horse. I've seen guys use the same approach you're demonstrating here with less finesse which caused colts to rear up and flip over, some didn't survive. But the amount of sweat on that colt and where he's sweating from, from the start of the video to 10 minutes in is saying a lot. You are pushing him to the limit without pushing him over the limit, but that's very hard for most people to read. I halter start colts from the ground in a smaller space over about 3-5 one hour session and I get the same results with less stress. The colt will still get the release when they rebound off the panels. They come forward and get the reward without me having to pull that hard on the neck rope. And with a flag for support I get the front and rear to yeild to pressure as well. I like using the "here...it..comes" approach further into the training when I have a little more communication and trust built into the relationship. I guess what I'm trying to say is, while what you're doing is simple to seasoned horseman, it's definitely not easy to the student horseman. That's a big learning curve, and without guidance from someone like you present, the outcome could be disastrous. Love your youtube videos. The knowledge you share is gold.

I am currently halter breaking (trying to) a yearling Andalusian colt. The impression I was given was that he had been handled much more than he has, which is basically none. I’ve worked with him for a total of 5 hours and have been able to stand beside him on left and right and touch his head some but he is not relaxed. Initially whenever I even raised the halter and leadrope above my waist he went directly into flight brain. That’s pretty much the case as it stands though yesterday I was finally able to touch him on the head with the halter. He’s a big boy and I don’t rope so here I am. Some of the comments here are annoying because people don’t understand that it isn’t as easy as nice groundwork. I’ve been at this all my life and have seen it happen a thousand different ways. I broke yearlings at the farm to go to the track for years and there was no roping involved all “groundwork” and let me tell you it certainly wasn’t always kind. I don’t rope either from another horse or from the ground and I’ve got this big ol colt who will just barely let me up next to him after 3 days of working him from the ground. I’ve been around and seen it all not new to this so it’s not as easy as putting on a nice halter and lead and everything is good to go. What Pat is doing here is a masterful job the colt is perfectly fine and will be all the better in his life for it.

Love watching your videos and this is what I’m looking for join up and etc. 👍🐴 from the Bronx, NY. 👍🐴

I sure like that corner of Or. My place in W Ky is to flat to drain.

You're a great man, I wish you were my friend..

Very informative video for me.

Title should be “Pat gets cosmic”😁

Oh...my heart broke when I saw you were in our area and I did not know (even allowing that might have been a private invite)!!! Great work with the colt and he is a nice one. It's been hot here for us and soon to get hotter. Glad you came before the heat wave that will melt us and probably leave you all unfazed. Do come again and happy that you are finally home safely. Nothing like your own bed....

He is an absolute beauty both of them.

Excellent..and make it look like second nature so easy.. I would have liked to see the first time he was haltered and watched his left and right front hooves lassood and unlassood..enjoy all yer videos..tried yer recipe on venison with the board..very chewy but delicious..didnt quite finish it..

That was the first time he was haltered. The owners had just been driving him around on foot.

This is interesting, When I have an older colt or horse of any age to halter break I basically use the exact same method to halter break him that you used on Chinaco when you put him in the round pen and used the lariat to "rope him" I believe is the term you used. I do the same thing except just place the emphasis on yielding to pressure. Works with no pony horse if you don't have access to one.

I like your grey horse.

Nice

When I broke colts to lead I would put on a halter on the colt run a rope there the ring on the halter make a loop and put around colts but pull on rope and the colt will fallow you that is way I Brock a colt to lead .

Back in younger days,i I would bteak

I hope you just bought that colt. Been around horses my whole life. Much better to put a halter on the colt from day 1 and lead him around by hand. Looks like your cutting off his air supply which panics the colt. Not a positive experience for the colt in my opinion. Everybody has their own way, just wanted to share.

What a great halter breaking Video.. didn’t see him put the halter on the horse.. Another “so called horse trainer”. What a joke! This guy is! Terrible display of what ever this was suppose to be..

I am not sure why this young horse was started so late! Giving to pressure needs to start in the first weeks and months of their lives! The pulling on the neck leads to problems down the road on some horses!

We don’t believe in handling young horses until the day after they are weaned because that is the time that the mare gets to teach the colt how to be a horse. That said, this horse is a yearling so that is why this took longer. After starting literally hundreds of young horses, Pat has never had a problem as a result of roping them because he knows how to slide rope.

Hard to watch you scaring this horse. Ground work and you wouldn't have to choke him. You could've introduced the rope with good ground work techniques and later ponied him without the trauma.

@@PatnDebPuckett Not to take away from your knowledge and experience because I learn a lot from your videos. The problem with the public is that they want instant results; they have no patience. They put pressure on trainers to give them instant results. Natural Horsemanship evolved to counter it, with emphasis on the animal's psychology, pain & fear free. Here's one of trainers on KZread who uses it with great results. She rescues untouched wild mustangs from BLM and gentles them.

@@artemisiagentileschi2400 We prefer to take our horse through the tunnel and out the other side rather than allowing them to remain scared and on the defensive for days or weeks.Also, that colt was in a position to kick that young lady right in the guts on more than one occasion. As the saying goes, God takes care of fools and little children. You should also be aware that horse got the ID tags around his neck somehow so he had been handled. We rope horses because we find it the best way to teach horses pressure and release safely for both horse and rider. If our horses get hung up in a fence, they stand and wait for us to help them rather than tearing themselves apart. If you never put pressure on a horse and teach him how to respond, someday that will come back to haunt you. You see a horse that we “scared.” I see a horse that learned how to handle pressure.
