Starting Your Young Horse –Frequent Short Training Sessions is the road to success, for horse and rider.

Starting a young horse properly is critical to developing a safe, reliable, capable and willing partner for the life of that horse, and this training must be conducted by an experienced, capable and competent trainer, who is consistent, firm and fair.

Training Requirement Timeframe:  Two (2) months Minimum.  Three (3) month’s training puts the icing on the cake!

See Basic Handle for details on my colt-starting program.

Tune Up for the Broke Horse  aka  Overweight and Under-Ridden

A well-trained, physically fit and mentally focused horse is a pleasure to ride and handle.

Generally, the (supposedly) broke horse suffers from too much feed and too few rides, and that combination can be very unsafe for the rider, as well as the horse.
