Joyce worked with my OTTB Holdum and it was such a great experience. Holdum would buck, rear and not want to go forward. After exhausting all possible pain points, it was clear it was a behavioral problem. Joyce took him and - with a lot of work - turned him into a completely different horse! He was willing, forward, no bucking or rearing, way less spooking and fantastic ground manners.

I bought a horse from Joyce 2 years ago. She did a wonderful job putting solid ground work on him and getting him ready to be backed. He has an amazing brain and handles anything thrown at him.

I highly recommend her and would work with her again if I ever find myself in the market for another horse
