Buyer Success Porgram
We think one of the biggest issues horse buyers’ face is limited information on the horses they are considering. There are so many little things as well as big things that new owners should know to be successful. Our goal is to give you sufficient information that our horses perform as well for you as they do for us. We will customize our coaching and support to suit your individual needs and be there to answer your questions no matter how big or small.

The Stables at South Molton - Horse Training Methodology
We believe training should be fun for both the trainer and the horse. Using principles of natural horsemanship, our own experiences, and creativity we incorporate many tools and methods of communication into our everyday training. We strongly believe there are no good shortcuts to training a safe, reliable horse.
We begin training each horse committed to the time it will take to achieve our goals. We focus a great deal of time and energy in all phases of our training program on developing the horse's mind. For we believe that no matter what the rider's goals are in owning a horse, the rider's experience is always enhanced when the horse is able to maintain a positive attitude in the company of humans.
There are three key elements in our training methodology at South Molton:
- Gentling the horses and developing trust
- Teaching tangible skills essential for their use as a pleasure horse
- Developing desirable habits and transferable training exercises
