TRAINING
Our
training program is based on a trusting
relationship. We work "with the horse", letting each
individual set the
pace. We have found that by working this way, our
horses are quiet, willing, and responsive. We use a
lot of techniques, some as old as the relationship
between man and horse itself, some as new as the
moment.
We handle our horses from birth, always teaching as
we love them. Even something as simple as leading
into a stall becomes a training session that is
geared towards the day when we will set foot into
the stirrup.
During their lives our horses are exposed to as many
different things as we can think of to help them to
relax and accept even the scariest of obstacles with
confidence. The objects we use and the manner we use
them allow the horse to use it's natural curiosity
to overcome it's fear. It is all done with Patience,
Acceptance and Trust. We "pat" our horses. You
should "pat" yours too.
