Gratitude and Commitment

To Our Current & Future Clients;

"I created Sage and Spur as a way to keep the traditional cowboy and native ways of horsemanship continuing through generations. I was raised on the ideology that your horse should be your partner; you should have the confidence that your horse will carry you willingly through thick and thin."

The training program at Sage and Spur believes no equine or rider should be pressured to a timeline. You can feel secure in knowing that your horse will gain a strong and dependable foundation and skill set without rushing the process, ensuring we are discussing and monitoring progress every step of the way.

Sage and Spur believes that every horse should have a strong equalization between their mind and their body.

At Sage and Spur, clear communication is non-negotiable. Every training ride and lesson includes honest feedback, progress updates, and clearly defined goals so there are no surprises. Owners are kept informed about what is being worked on, why it matters, and how it supports their horse’s long-term success. Written documentation is maintained and always accessible to ensure full clarity throughout the training process.

Every horse and rider is approached with patience, respect, and an unwavering commitment to doing things the right way. Sage and Spur does not believe in rushed timelines or one-size-fits-all programs—progress is built at the pace each horse needs to succeed confidently. This commitment ensures strong foundations, prevents future training gaps, and supports soundness both mentally and physically. The goal is lasting results, not quick fixes.

Embracing the Cowboy Way of Life

True horsemanship is built on trust, not force. Sage and Spur trains with the belief that a horse should be a willing partner—balanced in both mind and body—while still retaining their personality and heart. Training methods focus on creating dependable, hardworking horses that enjoy their job and remain confident in new or challenging situations. This partnership-first approach carries through every ride, lesson, and interaction.

No two horses—or riders—are the same, and Sage and Spur embraces that fully. Each client receives a customized training or lesson plan designed around their specific goals, experience level, and the horse’s needs. Whether working with young horses, seniors, beginners, or seasoned riders, programs are adapted to support steady, meaningful progress. If a standard package doesn’t fit, a specialized plan is created to ensure the best outcome for both horse and rider.
