What do I get in a month's
training?
• TRAINING: 22-25 rides per month if ground work is
completed.
• We will build a young horse's foundation or improve an older horse's
foundation
• Exercises: Circles, Flexes and Counter Flexes, Half pass, lead changes to
advanced: Slide,
stop and turn around: Travel on a light
rein, soft in the face, responsive, flexible and broke
at the poll.
• Some arena work: Plenty of outside riding, some rough terrain
• Cows, if requested
• Shoeing training - will be able to pick up their feet
• In the event a horse may be mean about picking up his feet, we may take
longer on this issue.
• Trailer - Horse will load
• Rider will be able to lunge their horse on the end of the bridle
reins.
• Horse will learn to stand quietly - for rider to mount and dismount
Horse will experience rough terrain -
will help him become handy and calm, through
rocks, boulders, etc. Horse will travel relaxed - he will
get miles, experience, exposure to livestock,
traveling through the brush, dogs and critters and ditches. He will
be exposed to swinging a rope. We really want to know from the
customer what he or she wants and will individually customize the
training. For instance, if a customer wants a rope horse, we will accentuate swinging ropes and exposure to cattle.
We will accept a
horse for a 30 day training period, but 90 days are usually best to build a firm
foundation.
