Testimonials

Thanks for your help the other day. With your assistance my horse now remembers where his manners are and behaved impeccably at the vet!

Lorna Jackson

Really impressed with Chris, came out to start re-education of my naughty Mavis, who bites, kicks and rears. Generous with his time and knowledge, gently but firm with Mavis who currently lacks the concept of personal space. Confidence giving for me. Looking forward to future sessions
