When looking for that one horse Don knows how important it is to define your needs as thorough as you can.  The right horse-rider-combination is key, Don states. Making it an important factor for being successful in reining: A lazy horse with a timid rider is not a good match, neither is a hotter horse with an aggressive rider. Personality traits are very important while looking for „the right“ horse. After finding the perfect match patience is the name of the game, meaning the new horse-rider-combination may take a season or two to grow into a team.

When talking good horses Dons eyes light up when speaking about the old bloodlines such as Hollywood Jac, Great Pine or Be Aech Enterprise. Still, there is no such thing as a favorite with him where bloodlines are concerned,  he emphasizes that there a good and bad ones in every bloodline. He makes an unusual comment though, noting that a stallions popularity is more about promotion then anything else! Consequently he pays very close attention to the choice of mares.

 

For further information on how to find the right horse for you, or the right stallion for your mare please contact us via the website or call to discuss things in detail, as this is a decision to consider carefully and the clients wants and needs are the basis of finding the right match. Don maintains long standing relationships with breeders, coaches and barns worldwide.

 

When taking a horse from one end of the world to another Dons preference firmly lies with "Equiflight" from Collinville, Texas and their founder Katie Forest Schroeder, where your horse will be treated as if it was their own.
