ny named Rubenz. His sister's name is Rhodao. They are American Warmbloods. The style of carriage I drive is a Phaeton Wagonette, designed and built by my father and I in 1999. It seats two adults and/ or two adults and two small children with a rear entrance. I also drive a Marathon Carriage and a Knockabout Cart, both used for training and recreation. I incorporate the French Dressage style of "Riding In Lightness" with my Carriage horses. It also fits well when I use my horses to work cattle, etc. Having a soft hand and mouth is paramount to sensitive communication in all disciplines. A solid foundation of Groundwork is of utmost importance as well. The "Relationship" part of riding and driving is what thrills me most. I adore all horses and ponies, etc. This page is not just about driving though... I train saddle horses as well.

Yes, we really did sell Ice Cream around town, sprayed kids with mist on their bikes and they loved it. Ransom loved it when I sprayed him on those really hot afternoons too!

People were always smiling and waving as we clipped clopped around, playing classic Ice Cream Truck music.

Made me feel like a kid again. :^)

See y'all downtown with bells on.

Happy Saturday and Merry Christmas!!

Thanks for the little video Mirjam!! Glad y'all could swing by and say Hi.

Ready for a wedding.

Sienna- 4th lesson on Rosie. Learning to post trot.

Annie. First session using a feed bag. Preparing for the first ride with good desensitization work. (Aka: Killing two birds with one stone.) I've already done other preliminary foundation work with her. :^)

Groundwork with Rocky.

Even though Dusty was unsure of it at first, he dealt with it and didn't try to run. Even if he had, I would have worked to build his confidence. By the end of the session, I had it flapping around him and over his back. Then I saddled him and had him drag it all over the pasture for a good while. He's a brave, sensible boy.

Dusty. Introduction to the dreaded horse-eating tarp. :^) Taking time to build confidence.

Sometimes it's nice to take a break from training, just hop on bareback and enjoy the ride with an old friend. I think Ransom enjoyed it too.

Day 2. Trenton.

Day 2. Working Trenton on the double longe line. Also rode him for a little bit, working on yielding his jaw. Good improvement from yesterday.

I asked alot of Trenton today but I knew he could handle the challenge. What an improvement from beginning to end. It will get easier from here.

My first time to ride Dusty. (He hasn't been ridden in almost 2 years.) Quiet, sensible and fun!

Cody- Backing exercise

Backing always seems to be the hardest thing for some horses. I just kept at it, being consistent and persistent with Cody. He eventually understand and it's easier now. One thing for sure, there is never a breakthrough without follow-through.

Cody- Lunging lesson

Dusty/Annie- Home

Dusty and Annie arrived at my place this afternoon. Getting acquainted with all the horses.

Cody- Longeing

Good improvements this past week. More responsive and sensitive. Cody is a very mellow and very light even when working in the open pasture. For him, the goal is to teach him to move with more purpose since he is so laid back.

Our Story

I started Driving and training Driving horses 30 years ago. There was a Driving Club in Powell, Wyoming where we lived at the time. My Quarter Horse mare, Casey, was a good candidate with her calm temperment and basic Dressage background. Since I had use of a friend's cross country cart, I trained her to drive. I bred and raised two siblings out of her and an Oldenburg stallion imported from Germany named Rubenz. My gelding's name is Ransom. His sister's name is Rhodao. They are American Warmbloods. The style of carriage I drive is a Phaeton Wagonette, designed and built by my father and I in 1999. It seats two adults and/or two adults and two small children with a rear entrance. I also drive a Marathon Carriage and a Knockabout Cart, both used for training and recreation. I incorporate the French Dressage style of "Riding In Lightness" with my Carriage horses. It also fits well when I use my horses to work cattle, etc. Having a soft hand and mouth is paramount to sensitive communication in all disciplines... It is a lifelong quest and something to always strive for! A solid foundation of Groundwork is of utmost importance as well. The "Relationship" part of riding and driving is what thrills me most. I adore all horses and ponies, etc.

As you can see, this page is not just about driving though... I train saddle horses and rehabilitate problem horses as well. I have a few for sale occasionally so send me a message if interested. As my dear friend used to say, “Ride Well.” :^)
