Heather trains Whimsy |
Whether Heather is instilling trust and manners in a foal or fine tuning an older horse under saddle, she considers the horse as an individual and provides training sessions according to their needs as well as yours.
Heather’s intention when working with a horse is to:
- Listen to the horse
- Instill confidence
- Promote relaxation and a feeling of safety
- Increase responsiveness to the lightest request
- Build trust
- Set clear guidelines for behavior
- Earn respect
 |
She will assess and work with horses that exhibit problems such as aggressive or timid behavior, biting, bucking, rearing, bolting and head tossing. However, she recommends that owners have their horse checked out by a vet to ensure the problem is not physical before they try training as an option. |
