Whether you have a green horse or an old campaigner, we
want you to have the safest, most enjoyable relationship possible. We can
work with you to improve your horse�s manners. A polite horse will:
Stand
quietly for the Ferrier, veterinarian and floater
Lift
its feet for picking
Drop
its head to accept the halter or bridle
Stand
quietly for saddling and mounting
Load
into a trailer
Walk
quietly beside you
Yield
to bit or hackamore (jaquima) pressure
Respond
immediately to leg cues
We have extensive experience with
handling young horses
Our staff has raised countless foals and started dozens
of young horses under saddle. Whether you just want your horse to learn
the basics, or you want a finished trail or show horse, we take a patient,
methodical approach designed to increase your horse�s strength and
suppleness while building trust, confidence and skill.
