Brandon has spent his
lifetime perfecting his philosophy and approach to horse
training. It is Brandon's opinion that a horse will
perform and respond to his training because the training
is based on natural horse behavior. His approach to
training is based on bonding and trust between himself
and the horse. He considers training and working
closely with a horse as being a herd of two, (herd
horsemanship) and that is why his approach to horse
training is so successful. |

Brandon's
training techniques are gentle and quiet. Most horses
want to please their handler, so capitalizing on that
natural desire enables the training to become deeply
engrained into the mind of the horse. The results yield
a quiet, relaxed horse that is willing to work for the
rider and is responsive to a light rein. We do not
follow current fad training, since our techniques were
used and proven generations before today's "horse
whispering" movement. |
Brandon considers himself a
life-long student of equine behavior and training. He
continually seeks to increase his knowledge and sharpen
his skills to be an even more effective trainer and
clinician. Brandon works with other horsemen,
exchanging their ideas and methods for training and
teaching. He assimilates and uses only the most
effective and gentle methods to incorporate into an
already outstanding program. Only the best and most
effective training methods are used to create a
"Hashknife Horse."
Brandon has authored
articles and given training advice in publications such
as The Gaited Horse, Equestrian Network Magazine, The
Journal of Equine Veterinary Science and others.
He is also featured in the books Be The Pack Leader by
best selling author Cesar Millan (The Dog Whisperer)
and Walking With Friends. |
