My goal is to make a quiet, safe, willing partner for you. My training style is natural horsemanship using a lot of techniques like Clinton Anderson’s method. I work on the horse’s time not my own. I do not skip any steps in the process. For example if it takes 3 days to get the horse to cross the horse eating tarp then that is how long it will take. I want the horse to “want” to do right thing. M
y training order goes like this, round penning, lunging, getting individual parts moving, ground work, introducing saddle, ground driving, introducing rider, slowly working up gaits, moving individual parts under saddle, and then trail riding. Desensitizing and obstacles will be mixed in the whole process. If you are expecting a dead broke horse in 30 days, I am not the trainer for you. I work on the horse in mind not a timeline. Cost

Reports
• I will keep a summarized log of what I worked on each day with your horse. Visits

So you can practice to continue a successful relationship with your horse. I request the lessons are made in advance to make sure your horse hasn’t already been worked that day. Miscellaneous

• Any other questions don’t hesitate to ask
