Our internet activities are not intended to promote business at the ranch. In reality we stay pretty busy and don't need to take on additional projects, so we direct most of our efforts as volunteers helping other people become successful with their horses through their own efforts and labors. If we are unable to help them locate a suitable trainer, we will take in a limited number of private horses for gentling.
Most horses come in for one month of work.
If the horse has overgrown hooves, we will trim them. If he needs worming, we will do that too. We can handle the horse for the veterinarian to vaccinate. Horses that have been mishandled or are particularly troubled may require more than one month's work, however these instances have typically been rare, usually only occurring when the affected horse needed additional time to recover from some prior severe emotional or physical trauma. If the horse is physically fit and is progressing normally, we will likely sit on the horse a couple of times under saddle during the gentling process.
