Casting Call for Horses to be Featured in Next Video

Published October 20th, 2009 in New Releases | No Comments »

Hi, folks.

I’ve been getting some great feedback from you on what you would like for me to teach you. Thanks for all your wonderful comments, suggestions and ideas.

The number one requested training is:
How to teach your horse to stop being pushy or aggressive… to teach them to respect your space and stop pushing into you or walking away with you.

Here are some of the comments subscribers like you have been making about what frustrates you the most about your horse…
“My horse pulls ahead of me while leading and won’t keep off me so to speak. If he spooks when walking him, he moves into me.”

“My horse took me into an apple tree. He wont go down the road and needs to learn respect.”

“My horse invades my space. My horse bites. My horse doesn’t follow ground commands.”

“My 4 yr old gelding is getting aggressive and trying to bite and kick. He’s always turning his back to me.”

“Wants to lead and won’t respect my boundaries.”

And that’s just a few of the common frustrations that horse owners all over the world are experiencing.

Since you have been asking for it… I’m going to create a special video training DVD just for YOU where I show you step by step exactly how to gently teach your horse to respect your space, stop biting and being aggressive or pushy, and I’m going to show you how to re-gain control so you can have a more pleasant, peaceful and fun riding experience with your horse. I’ll be shooting the video soon so stay tuned.

Your Horse Can Be a STAR!

Is your horse behaving badly and won’t respect your space? Is it biting, getting aggressive or pushy and won’t follow your lead? Then your horse can be the next Video Star featured in our new gentle horse training DVD.

We’re beginning video production on our newest DVD teaching horse owners how to change this bad behavior the gentle, natural way and we need a horse or two to star in the video. If you live in southwestern Virginia and have a horse or know somebody who has a horse that is behaving this way and would like to get it trained by me personally, then call me right away to schedule a time when we can do the training / video shoot: (434) 203-0232.

Turkeycock Mountain Wildlife Reserve

Published September 22nd, 2008 in New Releases | No Comments »

George up, Autumn Splendor mount We (Kathy and me) decided to check out the wildlife reserve on Turkeycock Mountain.  We only rode 1/2 the main forestry road and it took us about 2 hours.  It is a beautiful ride and should be even prettier when the colors change on the trees.  It is a good conditioning ride because of the steep inclines of the mountain.  We took it easy on our mounts, since it was their first ride there too!  It is very rocky there, so hoof protection is highly recommended.

Turkeycock Mountain Wildlife Reserve is on the line of Henry and Franklin Co.s.  If you take 57 W from Chatham, VA  turn right onto 651.  Follow that to Max Kendall Rd. and make a right.  Follow to the sign that says wildlife reserve and turn right into the dirt/gravel parking area.

If you know of any neat places to ride, please post them!
