Dave's method of training, using his patented Pinchless Bits and positive reinforcement have provided training solutions for horses that other trainers have labeled problem horses. His passion for horses began at 11 years old, exercising race horses in California, and continued through his teen years when he began breaking horses with his father, a trainer of Roy Rogers’ horses.
Del Shields, Western musician/song writer and poet (“the cowboy with the velvet voice”) will round out this impressive line-up. This is a once in a life time event one you will not want to miss.
