Training
For more info
on our unique Training services visit the
Lesson & Boarding page
(click).
We train age appropriate,
specialized in Friesian horses, no rush jobs, no rocket science
but rather common sense with proper English riding, geared to
the individual horse with a unique program that includes: arena,
open spaces, trail, traffic, outings, obstacles, dairy visits,
events, show, desensitization, and more.
We have
trained a bunch of outside Friesians.
Contact us if you need your Friesian trained or refreshed.

Daily training includes leading
with only a lead rope around the neck and/or pointing to where
to go (Friesians are super smart and know the drill), the horses
circle around running farm equipment (like here with a running
tractor and squeezing through) to see what's going on,
collecting trash roadside, etc.
