Breaking Board: $1600
We only accept horses aged 3 or younger for breaking board, horses must be halter broke & know how to stand while tied. Each horse is an individual and as such, some progress faster/slower than others. Therefore we suggest a minimum stay of 90 days for breaking services. This minimum requirement will enable us to put a correct, consistent foundation on your horse. This core education will stay with your horse for life and prepare him for any discipline you choose to pursue. After the first 30 days, we will evaluate your horse’s training and offer you expectations of what can be expected when you are ready to bring your horse home. We recognize other trainers can do it faster, we prefer to break horses the right way to set the horse up for a lifetime of confidence and success. Breaking board includes the same services as our All-Inclusive board, with the added benefits of groundwork, lunging with tack as well as backing through actively being ridden on the flat with a rider aboard.Lessons with this package are available for an additional fee.

Horse Shopping:
As always, when a horse is found & paid for, the buyer pays 10% of the purchase price as a commission & finders fee. To keep from raising my fee to the current industry standard of 15% I will be charging for my time. This also is an incentive for me to take more trips and to look at as many horses as needed to find the proper horse.
Charges are as follows:
$40 per hour, not to exceed $320 per day from the time I leave home until I return.
If I take my vehicle there is an additional fee of .37 per mile.
Airfare, lodging & meal per diems are the responsibility of the buyer and are billed as needed.

Horse Show Paperwork:
You are responsible for your entries, feed & bedding orders for your horse(s), and ordering only for your stalls in a timely manner. The earlier we pay (not order) for our stalls the better stabling location we will receive. Please DO NOT tell the show secretary how many stalls others in the barn will need, this only creates confusion.
TIEC makes it easy for me to help with your paperwork, however, you are still responsible for your paperwork. Please call Kelly with any questions.

Tack, Grooming, and Equipment stall costs are split by the number of horses at each show.
