*Colt Starting
We will work with any age horse from the ground up, starting with halter breaking, teaching ground manners, bending, flexing, driving, accepting the bridle and saddle, and learning respect for rider. We ride with a rope halter for the first week. We work horses in the round pen and indoor arena and then go to the outdoor arena and trail. We then work on trail riding, show training, or games, etc. depending on which direction the horse owner wants their horse to go.

PERFORMANCE HORSES WITH ATHLETIC ABILITY AND GREAT DISPOSITION
*General Training & Trail Riding
General training consists of stopping, backing, turning, and standing for mounting. Putting the miles on is important. If you are looking to get your horse ready for the trail, we can get it done. Trail riding in our area consists of riding your horse through ditches and open fields, across water, and bridges, through trails with lots of trees, down the side roads, along a highway with steady traffic, and sometimes into town. We have dogs, tractors with drags and mowers, and a steady amount of foot traffic for your horse to become accustomed to.
*Tune Ups ~ Refreshers ~ General Exercising
We also offer tuning up and exercising for those who don't have time to get their horses back in shape for competition, trail riding, cattle work, games, etc. If you don’t have time for those first few rides after a long sit in the pasture and don’t feel comfortable, bring your horse to us for that “Spring Refresher”. We can get them back in shape or take the kinks out before you go on that first ride in the spring or anytime of the year. Or maybe you want to use your horse on cattle and don’t know how he will react. We can do the first few steps for you. With general exercising, we get your horse back to that excellent shape he or she was once in.
*Problem Horses
We take in problem or sour horses. We work with the horse and owner on how to correct any issues the horse may be having. This includes problems with saddling, bridling, standing still for owner mounting, respecting owner, gate issues with barrel or game horses, spookiness on trail, reluctances leaving the yard, rearing, loading and unloading into trailers, and much more.
