Starting under saddle the first 60 days

Foundation Training

Problem Solving 

Trail/ Pleasure

 I specialize in starting horses under saddle which is a 60 day minimum. I do all breeds, genders  and disciplines. My foundation training program is for horses who may not have gotten the proper start or just need to be retrained. I also work with horses that might have one or more of these problems but not limited to, such as tying, loading, rearing, biting, bucking, kicking etc. I take all horses on trail rides. I believe this helps reinforce my training strategy and builds their confidence.

I only take three to four horses a month for training so that each horse gets the proper attention it needs. If you are interested in getting your horse started under saddle or retrained then please CONTACT ME and reserve your spot, stalls fill quickly.

"As always it was a pleasure working with Dan Crist. What else can I say? We think that our HORSES experiences speak volumes about you and your training talent and abilities. We're very fortunate to have Dan. Thanks again for helping us with our issues with an unruly mare. Dan is truly amazing, professionally and personally, and does such terrific work for us. This is the second mare he's worked with and we will use his expertise on a new purchase."
