I have some openings middle of next week and some the following week. Let's fix trailering issues when you have time and not worry when you don't have time! I travel to you, work with your situation and your trailer. Step up or ramp, straight load or slant, young horse or oldie. Trailer training is $85 plus mileage from Locust Grove.

Let's talk!

Hehe I see this often. Then I fix it.

This is scarier than I would have thought.

Happy Halloween season!

I have a client tentatively looking for a new mount. There is no hurry but if the perfect one shows up, that meets all the requirements, great! Here are the specifics (please only respond if you have a horse that fits all the boxes)

16 plus hands (rider is 6 foot with long legs)
Draft or draft cross or thick gaited
No younger than 8
Can sit for months and be the same horse (this is vital)
No healtb issues, weaving or cribbing
No spook
Trail broke with lots of exposure
Walk/trot/canter
NO GREENIES
Solid and sane with an easy going personality
Neck reining prefered
Ideally, within 4 hours of Locust Grove.
Prefer buying from someone that has a few years history of the horse

Budget to match the wants.

Won't be a quick purchase. Will have PPE done and will want to work with the horse a few times before committing.

Bonus points for black or roan horses

Even my husband knows this...

See! You aren't that bad. And if you are, let's talk!

While this is sound logic, let me help change the loading experience.

I am a travelling trainer that covers a good chunk of the state.

Starting the 1st if May, I will be running a month long price reduction of trailer loading training! I am starting to book up the month so don't wait to get on the schedule.

All trailer loading sessions will be reduced to $75 plus mileage. This is for your horse and your trailer. And I teach you the whys behind tough loaders!

Horse won't go on? Horse shoots off? Can't get within 20 feet of the trailer? Went to a 2 horse and now he says no way?

I have a high success rate of getting even the toughest case to load calmly and quietly without gimmicks, tricks or treats.

If you get on any of the following schedules, mileage is shared by all to reduce costs. All additions can be anywhere from Locust Grove to the listed area.

Sunday and Monday: emergency loads only
Tuesday: every other is open to any location
Wednesday: Richmond area
Thursday: Culpeper area (Rixyville, Orange and so on)
Friday: open to any location as of now.
Saturday: Nokesville, Aldie, Wi******er, Deplane, Clifton areas.

Feel free to ask any questions.
