COLT STARTING FROM THE GROUND UP 

HERES WHAT CLINTON ANDERSON SAYS ABOUT PROPERLY STARTING COLTS:
"The first 6 weeks of riding in a two year old lay the foundation for the rest of his life" .
 The good AND the BAD experiences never leave him. 
You have a huge investment in a 2 yr old prospect....WHY  WOULD  YOU  SELL  HIS  FUTURE  OUT  TO THE  LOWEST  BIDDER ??


This is not your average "hobble him and saddle him" deal.  In 60 to 90 days your colt will be able to do the following:
  • Saddle, while standing quietly ground tied
  • Ride quiet and relaxed
  • Break at the poll and give laterally
  • Back up, side pass and stop easily
  • Lope correct circles in or out of the arena
  • Open gates off of him
  • Throw a rope off of him and be "rope safe"

PATTERNING/SEASONING ON BARRELS AND POLES

Liana focuses on getting a strong foundation on the horse before the patterning begins.  Good body control is a must, along with a soft mouth, mind and body.  Horses are encouraged to work at only the speed that they can work correctly and on their own.  This means going a little slower, but you end up with a lot more solid and willing horse instead of one that is frustrated and inconsistant from being "rammed and jammed" on.  Keeping the horse's mind quiet and letting him enjoy his job is top priority.
