I've posted this before, but am reposting because the mare I purchased is actually here and needs more work than was disclosed. 15.3, 3 year old Hano mare. Hunter prospect. Needs work on her ground manners, *especially* for the farrier, tying, will NOT lunge to the left (bolts instead, is fine to the right), and would like her started under saddle. I am not sure if sending her to a busy show trainer would get all those bases covered or not, but if they would, fantastic! Names/contact info. for show trainers, cowboy type trainers, any type of trainer as long as they take good care of the horses is highly appreciated! I was originally planning on sending her to Junior Johnson to be started U/S but I after discovering all of her handling issues I am unsure as to whether those would be addressed since he is such a busy man. Mare is located in Fredericksburg and I am willing to travel up to an hour and a half to see her frequently while she is in training. |

I wouldn't count out Jr's program just because he's on the road...his staff is wonderful. The woman who owns the barn I board at has 2 lovely youngsters, a witchy mare and a stud colt, who came through Jr's program with lovely manners and ground attitudes...and they were both TOUGH cookies! His rider is wonderful, Lori is great and whoever else is there does an awesome job. |
