| WD Ranch offers training to outside horses and riders. We start horses, work with problem horses and help educate the riders so that they can work well with their own horse and achieve the same results we do. We believe a solid foundation is paramount to developing a willing partner and spend the time to do things the right way- no quick fixes or gadget training. |

Our horses learn in smooth snaffle bridles or bosals and are brought along with a strong Dressage basis even if they are Western type horses. This gives them a solid starting place to develop into the future athletes they will become whether they will be used for Equestrian sport, Western Performance, trail, pleasure, games or cow horses. |

| Austin and Nicole will start horses as well as prepare them for the show ring. We offer proven results for both the average pleasure rider to the competitor looking for show ring success. We will customize a program to fit your goals, your budget and your horse’s ability. |
| Prices vary depending on board and frequency of training and lessons. Sorry, our schedules are too full to allow us to travel but we will take the horses in training at our facilities in Ventura, California. We will travel for clinics with a minimum participation requirement. |
