Colt Starting

$1,200.00

Colt Starting is the first step in preparing a young horse for a lifetime of partnership. At Whispering Oaks Horsemanship, we focus on gentle, structured training to help colts develop trust, confidence, and respect from the very beginning.

Our Colt Starting program includes:

  • Haltering and leading to teach the colt to respond safely and calmly.

  • Basic grooming and handling to build comfort with human touch.

  • Introduction to ground manners and cues, including yielding, stopping, and backing.

  • Desensitization exercises to reduce fear and increase confidence in new environments or situations.

  • Short, consistent training sessions tailored to the colt’s age, personality, and learning pace.

The goal is to lay a strong foundation for all future training, whether riding, groundwork, or advanced performance. Every colt progresses at its own pace, ensuring a willing, confident, and well-mannered horse.

Price: $1,200/month (minimum 60 days)
