I cannot speak for others, but my friend and I found
this trainer gave us most constructive lesson we have
had to date...regardless of breed. I am just looking
to be taught proper equtation skills. Now, I must
admit my experience is somewhat limited, but relative
to other lessons I have had, he was the best. It was
really a bonus that we were getting lessons on the
Icelandic Horse. But I am going to make sure the
horses are treated humanely. I will also try to get
recommendations for other trainers, If I could find a
decent trainer anywhere near me, I would go even if
they taught on camels.:-) I have been looking for a
couple of years now with little success. Kind of
frustrating. The trainer I have now is fabulous with
horses but he is not really an instructor.
Thanks again for your input. I appreciate your point
of view and you make a lot of valid points.
