I will train horses for others on an individual quote basis. Generally speaking the price will range from $750-$2,000 per month depending on what the owner would like to accomplish with the horse.
Age, sex, and whether a horse has emotional or behavioral problems are all factors taken into consideration. All horses deserve a good foundation and where my training principles apply to every horse, adaptations in my approach are made to suit each horse individually.
Once a horse has a good foundation, the horse is developed towards meeting the needs of the owner, while fulfilling the needs of the horse. The subjects I teach at clinics are the same material I draw from in dealing with horses brought in for training under my care:
- Building a foundation of ground play
- Dealing with biting. kicking, trailering, tying, etc.
- Foundation preparations for various disciplines - halter, riding, driving, longreining & classical.
- Leadership while maintaining friendship - In the Way of the Horse
- Modifying behavior with natural horsemanship and operant conditioning techniques
- Training for Courage - Equine & Human
- Training for lightness & impulsion, pressure without contact
- Liberty, Freestyle, Dressage, Jumping, Eventing, Cattle-Penning, Pleasure, Circensic Dressage, Classical riding - any discipline
