BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN BREEDER, BUYERS & TRAINERS
Often times Breeders don’t know what to do with their babies from the time they are weaned to the time they are started under saddle so they don’t do anything. Trainers tell them to leave them alone so they don’t create problems that have to be fixed later. However the stress created by throwing a youngster straight from the pasture into a training environment can be very overwhelming both mentally and physically…plus they have to play catch-up with the ones that have begun an earlier education.

For Breeders and Owners who have an interest in showing in longe line or marketing their horse as a yearling, our YEARLING HEAD START PROGRAM™ is the place to begin. This program has become instrumental in preparing young horses for their show career. It’s easy for both horses and owners to understand giving them a step up. It takes the guess work out of evaluating future potential…chasing them around the pasture with a golf cart is a thing of the past! With more and more futurities and slot classes requiring early nomination fees it’s necessary to start conditioning them while teaching manners and movement at an early age. This program is kindergarten for young horses giving them the confidence they’ll need to make great show horses without taking a toll on their mind, body or legs. It’s not about overworking them going round and round in circles. There’s a lot more to teaching movement and self carriage on the longe line just as there is more to western pleasure than riding around on the rail! As Breeders, all of us want to protect our young horses insuring they are strong and sound both physically and mentally helping them to reach their full genetic potential. Whether they are aimed at showing in yearling longe line or are just preparing for life under saddle, this step by step building block program gives them the confidence they’ll need to make great show horses.

Our YEARLING HEAD START PROGRAM™ is adding to the Pleasure Horse Industry in several ways. The interest in longe line is growing so the demand for young horses is increasing. We’re giving the Breeder an opportunity to get more involved with showing and promoting their young horses. The market is expanded because we are giving less experienced owners the tools to confidently enter the show ring in an area in which they can be competitive. And we are helping to protect young pleasure prospects by creating a smoother transition between weanling age and riding age which results in fewer dropouts mentally and physically.

WE CAN HELP IN TWO WAYS…
We can do the work for you in our Training Program or we can give you the tools to do it yourself though private lessons or through our clinics. We are looking forward to our instructional DVD series to be available in the future.
