Like most horse crazy kids - Laura recieved her first stubborn
pony from Grandpa when she was three years old.  She began
showing horses competitively in 1973 with a local 4-H club.

Her first show prospect was a Canadian Pinto and the first pony
to recieve "Champion" status in Canada. By the time she was
 fourteen she was breeding and training her own projects which
were sucessfully shown in open and breed shows throughout
Alberta and Western Canada in the 70's, 80's & 90's.

Meanwhile, Bruce was also involved with horses as a young boy - spending most of his summers on his Grandpas farm in Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan. His Grandpa saw the "desire" to ride in the young boys eyes & was always keen to bring home those "bargain horses" from the local auction mart. If those boys wanted to ride a horse - they would have to train them first!

Bruce quickly learned by trial & error what worked & what didn't! Since that time - he has always been a "creative problem solver" when it come to a challanging horse or situation.

To the left is Bruce at approximately two years old - his first "Paint" love.

We have recently moved from Alberta to our
larger ranch in Edam, Saskatchewan. We are
conveniently located one hour east of the
Lloydminister Alberta/Saskatchewan border
and fifteen minutes North of the Yellowhead
Highway.

We are still only a mile or two from the North
Sasktachewan River  - where we love to
condition and train recreation horses.
