Horse Training Services

Chris working with coltChris believes that the way a young horse is started under saddle has a lot to do with how he performs as a finished horse.   No matter what goals you have for your horse, from a competent trail riding companion to Olympic level dressage horse, a strong foundation is the key to your horse's success.  Chris uses natural horsemanship principles and techniques he learned from masters of the natural horsemanship movement, such as Ray Hunt, Lee Smith and Pat Parelli. 

At C&C Colt Company, we expose the horses in our training program to a wide range of desensitizing stimuli to build confidence. Through our quiet and gentle training methods, we build communication, trust and respect, the building blocks of a solid foundation.  Our goal is always to turn out a confident horse that knows and can do whatever job it is given well.
