  • Prieto is a 7 year old ranch horse from Baja that we got recently. In this video, Pat begins teaching him the basis of collection and self carriage. Later on, he'll refine his lateral work. I think you'll enjoy watching the transformation of this young horse. As always, please subscribe to our channel and don't forget to hit the like button. Visit us at www.thedisciplinedride.com . Thank you for watching! Stay tuned...

    My birthday cake looks like a brush fire. I am 5'6"" and my Hancock blue roan gelding is nearly 16 hands. I usually get on him from a fence, pile of rocks, or park him in a ditch or on the lower side of a hill from me. On flat ground it's a feat for me to get on him, but I still can. I appreciate the stretching tip and I'm going to work on that! Thanks for your great videos! Keep up the good work!

    When you posted that video "three horses and a mule," Prieto was the one who caught my eye! I could s he was a "diamond in the rough!" He was the sort of horse I tended to pick out when I was a youngster. The other two 52 and Chavela are nice too, but Prieto, has what it takes to make a really nice horse! I used to ride a buckskin paint mare who was alot like that, she loved to travel yet, she could stand still when needed.

    • @PatnDebPuckett
      @PatnDebPuckett  Před 4 lety +1

      Over bridling is when the horse’s nose is behind the vertical. It’s very common in today’s show ring and dressage ring. We want our horses’ noses to be slight in in front of the vertical. If you look at old dressage footage of some of the masters like Nuno Oliveira, you’ll see the correct head position.

    Excellent video! I am in AZ and bought a gelding from the O RO Ranch in Prescott. Rojo and Prieto are built the same with the plank neck. I have gone back to doing snaffle work with Rojo but was considering doing bosal work instead. Can I ask why you did not put Prieto into a bosal before doing the snaffle work? Thank you. Keep the videos coming!

    • @PatnDebPuckett
      @PatnDebPuckett  Před 4 lety +2

      It’s too late for the bosal. Prieto has been ridden in a bit for 4 years. We don’t believe in fixing a horse with a bosal that has been ridden in a bit already. We save the bosal for colts. It’s an art form with a particular purpose.

    • @PatnDebPuckett
      @PatnDebPuckett  Před 4 lety +2

      We salt the bit to encourage a horse to reach for the bit when bridling. After a ride, we dunk the bit in water and sprinkle salt on the mouthpiece. It crystallizes overnight.

    Deb, is there any way Pat could give us some tips and tricks for handling large horses for those of us who are shorter in stature (and a little older)?
    My boy doesn't like to put his head down for grooming, haltering and especially bridling. He does stand quite well for saddling but I'm having difficulties getting him to 'stretch' as I'm a little short for pulling and pushing on the saddle AND bumping the back of his hooves.
    Any and all ideas are welcome and thank you in advance.
