Clare is a born horse lover... and is motivated by that simple, true and honest love of horses. She is dedicated to improving the lives of horses worldwide... one horse handler at a time.
Clare brings to the table 35 years of equine experience; gained from: Pony Club & eventing; jumpers; starting youngsters; ground driving;specializing in Friesans and adult amateurs; dressage: (competition, instruction & training through Grand Prix); reining; and basic training.
Clare has... amongst her other many accomplishments...been awarded her USDF Silver & Bronze Medal; and has competed successfully through Prix St. Georges.
Clare has extensive knowledge of just about 'anything equine'; ranging from: halter training a foal to first 'backing' a Thoroughbred to Training-Grand Prix dressage to handling difficult horses to trailer loading... and including: sales; purchasing; nutrition & suppliments; equipment & tack; saddle fit & bits; retirement; arena footing; managing a barn; help with diagnosing and treating lameness & soundness issues; habits (good & bad); proper wrapping; breeds; and referrals to local vets, farriers, trainers and bodyworkers.
Learn how to take care of and work with your horse properly, safely, and successfully... in the most comfortable, enjoyable, and least stressful manner for yourself and your equine partner.
No question too big: (use of aids in the half halt; training piaffe, passage, and pirouettes)... no question too small: (putting on and taking off the blanket properly; knowing what kind of hay to feed).
Go ahead...pick Clare's brain with a free 1/2 hour phone consultation...she's more than happy to help.
