Answers by Expert:
I am able to answer questions about Equine behavior and health issues. I can give educated advice about lameness and stallion management as well as tips on socializing and exhibiting a stallion in public competition. I have worked with Thoroughbreds and other Warmblood breeds for the last 20 years. I also own and manage a Sporthorse boarding facility.
I have been a stallion handler for the last 20 years and I have many years experience showing English and Western horses. I have started and finished some very successful showhorses and have taught students of all ages and levels of riding ability. I have spent all of my adult life working with animals, horses being my primary focus.
Organizations
Hooved Humane Rescue, IWRC, CCWR, Shasta Wildlife Rescue
Publications
Practical Pet Care Horse Forums (Moderator), Practical Pet Care Farm Animal Forums (Moderator)I have just Co-Authored a Basic Wildlife Evaluation and Care training book that all Team Leaders will have on hand to refer to in our local Wildlife Center.
Education/Credentials
Degree from UC Davis in Equine Physiology and management and large animal healthcare. Personaized instruction from Hilda Gurney in 1999 on Stallion handling/Kurring demonstrations with my stallion Gallant Summer. I have attended symposiums with Parelli and Lyons and I have found that my own philosophies are very similar to "Natural Horsemanship" methods of teaching a horse to understand what is being asked of it. Patience not force
