Behavioral Modification Training

Safe and Sound offers effective, reliable solutions for a wide range of common behavioral issues, using the flexible and positive method of behavioral modification.  This approach is tailored to each horse as an individual, first pinpointing the cause of an unwanted behavior, then re-training the horse's responses accordingly. Each horse will be evaluated prior to training in order to estimate the length and type of program needed. Programs start at two weeks and continue in either two week or thirty day increments as needed.

• Pushiness
