You get that horse to really operate as if he’s your legs and you can take that anywhere you want. You can dress up in any kind of clothes you like. You can be a jumper, dressage rider, trail rider, cowboy, anything.

The road may bend out of sight at times, but I know what lies ahead: the faraway horses.

Whether one was going to have a horse, or a dog, or a child, with that comes a great responsibility to raise them.

My work is my play. I found a way to make my passion to be the same as how I make a living.

A lot of times, rather than helping people with horse problems, I'm helping horses with people problems.

I take the horsemanship very seriously and I treat it with the same integrity that one would any of the fine arts.

You're trying to figure out a way to meet a horse to where he can understand. And to me, it's not to train a horse, it's to try to get the horse with you where it's one mind and one body. You may spend your whole life chasing that, but it's a good thing to chase.
