treasure in the Ozark hills of our

horse enthusiasts interested in
gaining hands-on experience at a
working ranch. Lodging at the ranch,
guests have the opportunity to participate
in day-to-day operations as a part
of the vacation adventure. For some,
the stay is a serious learning experience,
they come to Bucks & Spurs to
fine tune their horsemanship skills

horses using positive reinforcement.

- James and Laura Martinez
- http://wardancefarm.com
- What is unique about our program is that we strive to create respect and communication between the horse and the handler or rider. When working with horses you must remember that steps cannot be skipped because these "holes" will show up in your horse's training. That's why we always hear, "My horse is really awesome, except when he ..." When you take your time to do things correctly and simplify and clarify each step before moving on, you and your horse will be more well-rounded, better partners in respect and communication. That is, you will better communicate your message and your horse will really respect you for it! Our goal is to achieve this kind of relationship with each horse and rider combination and to share our deep passion with each new student. This overwhelming passion is the difference between good and great! We are currently accepting new horses for training at Timberline Stables in New Bloomfield, Missouri. We use a combination of many trainer's techniques that have been adapted to each of our personalities and preferences. We offer colt starting, work with problem horses, and work to mold and refine the relationship between horse and rider. See our web site for more information.

- Terry & Dollene Tryon
- www.leanintranch.com
- In the early 80's Terry
began to seek out people who seemed to get along
with their horse and started to study the ways
they were using. In the mid 80's Terry began
to attend clinics and study video tapes and
books from everyone he could manage to see.
He began with some John Lyons Symposiums and
then studied with Pat Parelli's Corral structure.
Terry became a Parelli Corral leader for 4 years.
He attended clinics as an auditor or rider,
with Ray Hunt, Buck Brannaman, Bryan Nuebert,
Larry Mahan, Craig Cameron, Dave Seay, Clinton
Anderson, Lyn Palm, Martha and R. E. Josey,
Barbara Schulte, Don West and Gawani Pony Boy.
Terry was an instructor for various courses
for the Bureau of Prisons during a 21 year career
with that agency. He has attended several courses
on public speaking and teaching through his
former employment. Terry has taken his retirement
and his wife Dollene has taken an early retirement
from the public school system to devote their
time to training horses and people to form a
relationship that will benefit the horse and
rider.
