Colt Starting Demo Horse Needed

0713_02

At the Dripping Springs, Texas Walkabout Tour presented by Ritchie Industries, Clinton will work with one of his Professional Clinicians to demonstrate how he prepares a horse to be ridden for the first time. An unstarted horse from the area will be brought to the tour for Clinton and his clinician to work with. During the training session, they’ll explain how to earn the horse’s respect and trust through a series of groundwork exercises and then how to introduce the saddle and build the horse’s confidence wearing it. If the horse is ready, they’ll put the first ride on him.

The horse used in the demonstration will be between the ages of 2 and 10 and will not have been saddled or ridden prior to the event. Fill out an application on our website to submit your horse for consideration. Please note that the selection process takes place a few weeks before the November 13 and 14 event and only applicants whose horses are being considered for the demonstration will be contacted.

Learn more about the Walkabout Tour, including the full lineup of training demonstrations set to take place, on our website.
