    I'm assuming that everyone below who made all the negative comments about the owner, has never had to start out with a horse or learn anything! the guy had previous riding experience but not previous owning experience, Natural horsemanship does not come 'naturally" to a human, we have to LEARN it. Doesn't mean the man is clueless or stupid. He's smart to come to Pat to get help and learn better methods.

      That idea is what gets people hurt! Especially when the horse thinks he is boss. Never trust a horse that thinks he is superior to you. It's the horses you trust that will hurt you the most. Always watch the demeanor if a horse and his ears are connected to his hooves. He pins them ears and you correct him immediately vocally by "Whoa"!and get out the aim of hooves by moving his head, towards you.

    Good for this owner for coming to get some help. He obviously loves his horse and knew he needed to do better. Everyone is a beginner at some point in their lives. If I were the horse, I'd take the loving, uncertain owner who was willing to learn, over the ignorant brute who already thought he knew it all. The latter is so much worse... This man is honest and observant enough to see and admit the problem, and noble enough to seek guidance on how to improve it, and that's a great, GREAT thing. Pat, thank you for your patience and knowledge. I found this video very enlightening.

    It’s not the easy way, it’s the right way. My father trained with Pat after rescuing a horse. His experience with Pate changed his entire life. I was a competition hunter jumper- meaning I treated horses like a steering wheel with ears out of sheer ignorance. We simply didn’t know any better or how brutal and cruel it was. When I learned the difference- I stopped riding and swore I’d never throw my leg over a horse again unless I did it as friend and partner- not a torturer. Meaning I went from expert hunter jumper to complete beginner in one moment. And I regret nothing. Bravo to this good hearted man for seeking a better way. Bless you Pat.

    The most amazing thing to me was how Pat understood Toby's mind. Or the mind of horses. The entire thing comes down to communication. But then, as always, the secret to conversation is listening. This is what makes Pat a horse whisperer. Mostly this video revolves around instilling trust in Toby's mind. This is the underlying base of the obedience, which is just the method to do so.
    For Steve? Just, Bravo! You had the courage to acknowledge you did not know enough to treat Toby properly and well. You are steps ahead of anyone else. Interestingly, this taught me something about human relations as well. A real eye opener to realize how much we live in an atmosphere of general distrust and cynicism.
    Funny thing though how this happened. I was busy with this exact subject on another level and getting to this video was by . . . sheer co-incidence? Checking e-mails for a completely different purpose.

    I admire this guy for getting help, I cant believe how little he knows after 2 years with this horse

      +Syd Thew I don't feel like the guy learned very well because his own bad habits were so en-grained. It is very admirable that he sought help and I truly hope he seeks much more of it later. Once he watches his own video he will see his own needs of items to work on. He definitely sought help from the right person too.

      The beginning of Wisdom (is the fear of the Lord) but that starts with the simple understanding how insignificant we are and what little we know. When someone is smart enough to admit they need some knowledge from others they are then able to learn what they needed to learn. We all need to learn and must admit what we don't know readily so we can then learn willingly that is how understanding comes. Society conditions use all to act so often ignorantly without Good Common Sense. Animals have God Given common sense to survive and try and thrive all on their own, our interacting with them without common sense is how these ignorant situations occur. The horse gets fed and watered by us so a bad relation can be developed outside common sense by the horse and mainly us! Pat Parelli does one outstanding job of resetting the common sense mutual respect relationship! He does one awesome job!! Mainly for us humans!!

      Syd Thew that’s because he just learned as he went with no help. Amazing that stubborn fat spoiled horse didn’t kill him. lol. Pats right. That horse is obese. But he’s cute and will be quite attractive once he’s lost some weight. Pat has so much patience it amazes me.

    I can’t believe what I learned from this video. This is the horse version of my German Shepherd. I feel so humbled by what I don’t know and how selfish I’ve been just wanting a dog to love and no clue what she needs. This horse must be saying “Thank God the horse whisperer showed up. Now I will have structure and
    understanding!” Thanks for what you do for all watching.
    This horse is soooo beautiful. I sure hope to see more.

    The only way I could get near horses was to take riding lessons. Over however many years, I kept asking the same question: "but what is the horse thinking?" Then I learned about and attended Pat Parelli's workshops. He's terrific. I miss the smell of hay, horse feed and beautiful horses.

    I have learned so much by listening to both Pat and his student. The responses are clear if you listen to your horse and take control so he understands your movements. Hope to be a rider in the spring, use what I've learned to become confident. An owner, observing from the ground at this point. Going to watch it again!

    Toby is one heck of a great horse! Parelli was able to show Stephen the basics of communication that will translate to all other lessons in communication...between human and horse. Toby's demeanor is wonderful! Strong, smart and a super trail horse!! Super trail horse! Toby is listening...Stephen has to practice his part and sorry, THAT is what takes work! I love love love Stephen and Toby's connection. Great PAIR! Stephen blew me away when he was taking orders from Parelli...learning new skills is tough. First one needs to UNLEARN what they've been doing that is wrong and then they will be able to do the NEW moves. That takes TIME. Stephen was very fast!
    What a great pair Stephen and Toby are!

    Excellent video! A very helpful demonstration of how to solve commumication problems between horse and rider,and correctly and confidently address them the right way. Also the many good examples/explanations of some behavioral cause and effect, and I appreciated the clear examples of how to solve the specific problems and why and what makes them happen.
    I liked how clearly it was specified, just how important and necessary it is, to establish your leadership by having the ability to always maintain control, and knowing when and how to use pressure (or lack of pressure) to communicate/motivate the desired action.
    Toby and Steve were really great examples to watch and learn from.
    On a personal note, and after decades of not having the means to keep or own a horse as I once did (or even really being able to ride much for a long while), I'm now finally able to have and own some horses, and reunite with my favorite, most enjoyable activity and ride once again.
    I began riding when I was 10yrs old. I'm now 54, and would also very much like to teach my teenage daughter to ride, so she and I have a way to spend some quality time together, exploring the mountains of Southern Central Oregon.
    One of the benefits of my learning to ride young, is tge feeling of natural confidence, less fear, and forming an exceptional bond. Regardless of that, I felt it'd be a good idea to get updated and see if there were anything new to learn about I hadn't been aware of, and to maximize knowledge and safety for she and I to have the best possible experience.
    I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my memory had retained everything I was taught and knew, but most importantly, this video with it's clear and thorough demonstration, was a big help in reconfirming the many things I (somewhat unknowingly) was doing right, and That I had lost none of what came natural to me. I can see, in addituon to other videos I'd observed, how I would easily be able to do some training myself as well.
    I'm very pleased and excited, to be able to use what had been so buried in me, only to uncover it as something I can excel at even more than I'd of known or guessed as an adult. I may even be able to enjoy competing in Western equ./pleasure shows as I once did, and this is super exciting to me!
    Aside from my carrying on about myself, I'd like to end by saying, once again, how excellent I think this video is/was, and I look forward to exploring more of what you may have to share on this channel, and as a new and added subscription...
    I Thank you, most sincerely!~

    The most I’ve ever learned about something was from this man and his wife and there 1st and 2nd release of their program. Hours and hours of instruction. 2nd release is outstanding and the best horse training aid out there. I did this for 8 years with a few different horses but my main horse who is still with me went the farthest. People say she’s the most polite nice horse and “tame as heck “.

    This was fantastic-learned so much. Would love to see Pat do the whole exercise himself from start to finish so I could take notes like 1. 2. 3., etc. It was a lot of information which was great but would love to have it done by just the instructor doing all of it. The lesson went well.

  • @tamaracuff2190

    I really enjoyed this video. Pat you are a wonderful instructor, so patient with the owner. I have practiced NH for many years as an amateur and haven't ridden as much as I'd like in the last 8 years, but refreshing videos like this help my motivation to dust off the old lady and get back riding! I love how the owner was trying so hard, the look on his face the whole time when Pat showed him something was wonderful to see....you did a great job and I hope you have continued training with Toby using Pat's techniques as I'm sure you realized in that lesson that it really works. I love Toby and I think you two are a good match, he's so gentle and smart....didn't take him long to understand the lessons, but I think you will need to keep it up with him as he seems too smart lol....he's been the leader for so long he may not give it up that easy unless you stay consistent with the practice. Congrats to you both, standing ovation for this video Pat!
