Darrell Gardner's Horsemanship Show

Darrell Gardner's Horsemanship was founded upon four principles: 

Showing Your Horse Love 
By expressing love to your horse it helps to build a good relationship and strong bond. This will lead to a better response from your horse. 

Gaining Respect 
If you don't have respect on the ground, you won't have it on the saddle. Respect is an essential part of horsemanship and it begins with good ground manners 

Teaching Obedience 
Obedience comes with consistent training. This teaches your horse what you expect and how to quickly respond to the cues given. 

Loyalty between the horse and trainer 
It all begins with gaining trust. Your initial approach is extremely important. It takes patience and time to get your horse to gain faith in you.
