Sorry! PISS MY SELF LAUGHING!![]()
we are not stupid or thick or suffering with a mid life crisis where we are so hormonal that we are fantacising about cowboys!
You so called 'kick it on' conventional horse women are making it sound that anyone who has made an informed decision to try something other as bubble heads who don't have a brain cell to rub together with no horse knowledge what so ever.
I am an intelligent educated horse woman, I take acception to what your comments insinuate about anyone who takes a different approach. I would never treat my horse in such a way as to rope him and cut him to get him to the ground to bridle him. If Pat Parelli did this for demo purposes then that is his issue and not the people who follow the programme. I would suggest you stop being so discriminating against those who choose to work their horse in a different method than that of convention just because you don't believe in it. I do not birate you for the way you choose to lunge your horse tied down in side reins or ride with your horses mouth tied down, and ... how very patronising of you to suggest the only reason we follow PNH is because of Levis, Stetsons and spurs, I personally can't stand all that nonsense, I choose PNH to help my horse when other methods have made him exceptionally unhappy and we were getting no where, I am the bigger person for taking a less popular route and trying something different for the sake of my horse. Do not critisize EVERYONE for one persons misjudgement. I really do wonder about the nastiness of people in the horse world at times. It is nothing more than bullying. You should be ashamed of yourselves for using forums such as this to treat other horsey people like they are the lowest of the low because of the methods in horse training that they use. My horse loves parelli and if he didn't like it I would not do it. He loves his 7 games and the fun and the challenge of playing with a big ball, tarp cones and working on puzzles. All of this helps him and if it helps him then it is not a bad thing. SO PLEASE STOP CRITISIZING THE PEOPLE WHO PRACTICE PARELLI AND TREATING US LIKE WE ARE MORONS.take up the issues you have with the demo by all means, but do not treat anyone who chooses this training method as if they have some disease.... a great many of us have worked with horses and had horses for a long time, we are not stupid or thick or suffering with a mid life crisis where we are so hormonal that we are fantacising about cowboys!

Now then, I am very glad that parelli works for your horse and I am so glad he loves it.You so called 'kick it on' conventional horse women are making it sound that anyone who has made an informed decision to try something other as bubble heads who don't have a brain cell to rub together with no horse knowledge what so ever.
'Kick it on' horsewomen? This shows a basic misunderstanding of how we treat our horses in the UK. On the other hand, Pepperoni people over here tell us that we don't understand, love or know how to 'read' our horses and that their way is the only way. No need to put blinkers on the horses, these people are already wearing them. Practice and preach my dear.
I am an intelligent educated horse woman, I take acception to what your comments insinuate about anyone who takes a different approach. I would never treat my horse in such a way as to rope him and cut him to get him to the ground to bridle him.
I don't doubt your intelligence nor your taking 'Exception' see my paragraph above re practice and preach. You may never treat a horse that way, yet your esteemed leader DID choose to do so.
If Pat Parelli did this for demo purposes then that is his issue and not the people who follow the programme.
But surely, this is HIS programme, again practice and preach
I would suggest you stop being so discriminating against those who choose to work their horse in a different method than that of convention just because you don't believe in it.
Oh dear I do hate to repeat myself BUT Practice and Preach
I do not birate you for the way you choose to lunge your horse tied down in side reins or ride with your horses mouth tied down,
Thank for your not bErating us but again you are surmising that everyone who practices 'conventional' means does this - hate to tell you this but you are SO wrong on so many levels
and ... how very patronising of you to suggest the only reason we follow PNH is because of Levis, Stetsons and spurs, I personally can't stand all that nonsense, I choose PNH to help my horse when other methods have made him exceptionally unhappy and we were getting no where, I am the bigger person for taking a less popular route and trying something different for the sake of my horse. Do not critisize EVERYONE for one persons misjudgement.
This would make complete sense, however, repeating myself again, it was the head honcho who chose to use this very violent and non natural method, so yes it is entirely natural to blame the method HE started for his mistakes

Now then, I am very glad that parelli works for your horse and I am so glad he loves it.
I think people will stop treating parelli followers like morons when they stop treating us the same way. Sadly there ARE many many morons who follow this path and they look down on anyone who does not practice their way, these, in the main tend to be novice horse owners and this is what gets peoples' backs up tbh. I would be the first to admit that I do use some of the things PP preaches, some of them are very old fashioned horsesense and I am not for one moment insinuating that you are one of these sheep, one thing I would say though is that just like PP accuses others of, his followers need to be more open minded.
Regarding 'nastyness' this is actually in response to what we perceive to be horse abuse, people are very very upset and angry, there is no defence or perhaps you could offer some words in defence of the great man, other than 'you don't understand the concept' now THAT is patronizing

what i don't respect are the hoards of parelli devotees currently "praying" for me on facebook because i can't see the light
That is the funniest thing I've heard for ages - are they really 'praying' for the non-believers?!
Well to all those who have seen the light - don't bother praying for me - I don't believe in God either!

UN EDITED VIDEO OF CATWALK AND PAT PARELLI

Unedited?!!
The first session took in the region of 3 hours.

at least if they are praying for me they are not throwing a rope at their horses head in the name of horsemanship![]()
I meant they didn't cut out all the bad parts like in the previous video posted on youtube, sorry for the misunderstanding
There are quite a few taken by the same person, just split up.
Where? The only ones I can see are not of Catwalk and PP...
I was happy to accept that catwalk may have sustained a cut after someone said they saw it, now I wonder, did they see something they thought was a cut and put 2 and 2 together and came up with 5?
Some say they were there when the vet examined Catwalk, again I ponder with so many people saying they were there how did the vet squeeze in?
Here is a statement from a 3* Profesional who is highly recommended. I have attended his courses and he is 110% for the horse, cares about each horse as an individual and gives it to you straight. Here is his statement.
I was with catwalk straight after the demo on Friday night, with Rob, and although I appreciate the demo was upsetting for a lot of people, catwalk did not break into a sweat, and was not injured in any way. I also spent the whole day watching Pat play with catwalk, with Rob, and was present when the vet came to see him, and can quote that the vet said there were no lesions, cuts or any damage to the horse whatsover. A second demo was never planned, and the horse was certainly not unfit to be helped the next day, and even competed on the Sunday. By 6 o'clock on Saturday, myself and Rob were able to bridle catwalk. I have spoken to Rob several times since and progress is great. Rob is very pleased and very apreciative of what Pat has done, and we have now helped several horses that they were unable to. Rob will continue to use our help and is very grateful.
There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding what was said by the vets, and what has been done. If anyone is interested in hearing what was said and what was done on the Saturday, please feel free to call me.
Everyone is of course entitled to their opinion, which we should respect, but some facts seem to be fabricated. Apart from myself, Rob, linda, neil and Sue, and Pat, no one else was present, which is why it would be impossible for anyone to have heard the vets report, so it has been made up.
I will not get time to visit the forum again, so if you have any comments, questions or confusions, please call me.
Thanks for Reading,
James Roberts
I have James phone number and email address if you wish to call him.
