I Visited Candy Mountain and All I Got Was This Lousy Incision Posts: 79 Group: Members Member #1,030 Joined: May 8, 2007	Any suggestions? Mare just came home from full training board but has been off for 30+ days due to a popped splint. Ready to go back to work however she is big, strong, and has an attitude/respect problem and frankly I don't want to be the first one on her back after her time off. Looking for someone in/near/around the Fredericksburg area who would be willing to travel to my barn 2-3 times a week.

I remember his name (don't ask me how) and googled it. He has had ads in the VA Horse Journal. Maybe someone else here will know more about him. ********** Rocking T Ranch 549 Deer Haven Ln Orange, VA 22960 [View Map] (540) 672-2986 rocking-t-ranch@earthlink.net The folks at Rocking T Ranch are here for the horse to help him get a better deal. They educate the human on how to create a willing partnership with the horse through training and clinics. It's how horsemanship should be. Have saddle will travel!

I like his training methods however I don't think they'd work well for this particular mare. I think I have found someone who will work out that's local for me and if not I'll scout around a bit more!

He is in Rixeyville so it may be a bit far, but he does do farm calls or you can send horses to him for training. He has a website: www.cornerstonehorsemanship.com
