| “Our first encounter with Cal Middleton and his expertise regarding horsemanship and training was about 4 years ago when my husband surprised me with a horse he bought from Cal for my birthday. She was one of his saddlebred’s and the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. She was 2 years old and sorrel with a flaxen mane and tail. I was ready to get on her and ride the next day, even though I had not been on a horse since I was very young. Cal had his work cut out for him, trying to explain to me my horse needed “training”, and not only did she need training, but I needed training. It was evident that my safety (and the horse’s) was the most important thing to Cal. He had a very difficult job trying to get me to understand that this young horse was NOT the horse for me. He began his personalized plan to meet my specific needs and challenged to make me understand that she was not the horse for me. He is a very honest person, and his brutal honesty might have hurt my feelings initially but quite possibly probably saved my life in the long run. If Cal says it, I believe it. That is one of Cal’s greatest strengths in dealing with anyone, whether it is a client, a friend, an employer or employee. He has the amazing and uncanny ability to analyze each situation and assess what is the best approach for everyone. With great ease he knows his client’s potential and immediately begins making a training plan or agenda for the client and horse. This ability allows him to teach the client and horse at their highest learning potential, and all the time challenging them and the horse to learn but again keeping safety number one. Cal has the unique ability to communicate on many levels, he can teach the very young to the older clients, and those who have never ridden a horse to those who have been riding all their lives. His ability to educate, train or assist anyone on any level is an unbelievable talent. Cal will do the same with his sponsor’s. He will familiarize himself with your company/business and use his expertise to serve you in the maximum way possible to assist you in meeting your goals and potential. This is his goal and promise. “ |
