Testimonials

“Kim has an extreme ability to care about what she is doing more than most people.  She is very passionate about horses and likes to get it right. Kim cares about the horses and her clients.  She also has more education than most trainers will ever have.  So I can find no reason what so ever why anyone would not want to work with her. They are wasting their time with other trainers! Better to just start with the best.  Kim takes very good care of the horses and gives them the best education possible.   I am now endorsing Kim as an Instructor of my methods. She does know it inside and out. With her knowledge and insight she can help many.”

“Kim is very kind and trustworthy and that is a rare asset in the horse training world.  I know I could trust Kim to be honest about a horse and his suitability for what I was looking for him to do.  She is kind to her animals.  I know I could expect them to be loved and cared for and get a lot of one-on-one time with her…not her helper or assistant.   I value the most her training of kids horses…because I know if she says a 2-year-old child can easily handle a particular horse…I can take that statement to the bank.  There are too make “Kids” horses floating around out there that are in no way safe mounts…not the horses or kids fault at all.  Kim is always 100% honest about her horses.”

“Kim’s horses are friendly, happy and well adjusted. You can walk up to anyone of them and they want to come and visit with humans.  Her animals are well cared for, fed well, and she offers a full desensitizing program that is methodical and safe.”

“Kim has a keen observation of each animal to assess what they need, as far as where to begin their training in life-skills to work in partnership with people.  I also like her holistic approach to finding out why a particular animal may be having a problem or behavior issue.”

“Kim offers hands on training for you and your horse, meaning she just doesn’t take over but rather she shows you how to do it and walks you through the program. I like the ground work and having my horse respect me as it does transfer to being ridden. She will work with you on overcoming your fears by learning how to work with your horse in a safe manner.”

“She puts excellent ground manners on them and it makes a good foundation for everything else in their lives, like getting them started under saddle.  Kim trained a mare of mine that was over reactive on everything but after she had her, she was respectful and all I had to do was point my finger and she would move! Some other trainers are rough and bully the horse to do what they want but Kim is patient and she truly enjoys working with the horses and seeing the “light bulb” go on and the progress that they make. I would not change a thing about your program and will always recommend you to anyone. You have the patience of a saint and you make it easy for them to understand what you want from them.”

“I chose Kim as a trainer because of the gentle Horsemanship methods she uses.  The fact that she handles each horse according to it’s personality, and doesn’t try to train them all with the same technique, as all horses are different.  Some are aggressive, some are timid.  The training method should fit the horses personality.”
