Are you new to owning a horse? Give me a call. I will teach you everything so you and your horse will trust each other and enjoy each others company. I will teach you how to interact with your horse in a safe manner. How to put a bridle on and saddle up your horse. Horses will test you in the beginning and I will teach you how to always be in control and confident when interacting with your horse. I have had horses for the last 25 years. I also rode professionally for 15 years, traveling and competing in barrel racing events through out the U.S. My first horse was a registered Paint horse named Thunder. I was 11 years old and my dad bought me "Thunder" from a horse broker who drugged him to make him appear to be a calm and well mannered horse. When he was trailered to the barn I was keeping him at and the drug wore off and the owner was gone I had a terrified, skittish 4000 lb horse that was scared of everything. I think he kicked me at least 10 times the first week I had him. It was obvious he had been abused but with patience and love he turned out to be an awesome horse. We had a connection and he learned I would never hurt him and that we could trust each other. I won a lot of ribbons on him. I will teach you how to have the same relationship with your horse and how you and your horse can enjoy each other. If you are interested or might be interested in helping your child learn how to be safe around their horse and enjoy their horse feel free to call me. 925-727-6956.
