  • For the 2010 year, on a monthly basis I will only be taking in training horses that are broke and maybe just need a refresher, conditioning or more time put on them in the arena or on the trail.
  • Training includes groundwork/round pen work, arena and trail riding according to the horses’ individual needs. Horses are ridden five hours/week, twenty hours/month minimum.
  • Training includes the care of your horse on my premises. This includes hay, grain (if required), ½ acre paddock and daily grooming and care. I will also include free of charge the application of fly spray during warmer months and to put on and take off a fly mask, fly sheet or winter blanket depending on the season (all the items will be provided by the owner prior to training).
  • Owners are required to send a saddle blanket and brush that will be used for their horse only and one bottle of fly spray for each month of training during warmer months. Horses are blanketed during winter months to save time during training; two waterproof winter blankets in good repair are required. These requirements are for the health and comfort of your horse during their stay.
  • Included free of charge is a one hour lesson with your horse near the end of training to understand how your horse has been trained and how to work with your horse when you both go back home together.
