Behaviour Assessments
This initial consultation will give you immediate answers about your horse’s behaviour. Using only positive, practical, and effective scientific methods to provide long-term solutions.
After this consultation, you will have a thorough understanding of the root cause of your horse’s behaviours, an in-depth evaluation of your horse and their environment and a solution and plan to resolve these issues.
Included:
- In-depth history taking of known training, medical or behavioural problems.
- All aspects of your horse’s management, environment and training will be taken into consideration and documented.
- A thorough discussion of the behavioural problem(s) and possible causes.
- A comprehensive written behaviour modification/training plan. This will include detailed instructions about what is recommended to resolve these issues.
- Follow-up discussion of implementation with the information listed in the assessment.
- Email and messaging support for additional questions.
Please note: While some behaviour issues may be resolved with the behaviour assessment, others may require follow-up sessions. This will depend on the severity of the horse’s problem, how long it has been occurring and how easy the changes are to implement.

Virtual Lesson Programs
Virtual Lessons:
Traditional 30-minute- 1-hour long lessons via Zoom, Skype or Facetime.
Process:
Step 1: Intake form and goal planning
Step 2: Invoice is sent and lesson is scheduled!
Continuous Lessons:
Continous lessons are an ongoing and evolving lesson type. An hour deposit is paid upfront, clients send short videos for review, feedback for the videos are given and then follow-up lesson plans are given.
Process:
Step 1: Intake form and goal planning
Step 2: Invoice is sent!
Step 3: Starter basic videos are requested, I offer feedback and we build from there!
What are the benefits of continuous lessons?
Continuous lessons allow us to focus on specific training behaviours and get immediate feedback on that behaviour. An hour of continuous lessons goes a long way than an hour of virtual, as we can usually get 2-4 lesson plans done with one hour of continuous lessons.

Board and Train Program
Our Board and Train Program offers individualized, welfare-based training for horses staying at our facility. Designed to support both horses and their humans, this program focuses on developing calm, confident, and cooperative behaviour through evidence-based, Positive reinforcement-based methods.
Every Board and Train starts with a full off-property assessment to ensure this program is the right fit for both you and the horse. From there, we create a structured program built around achievable goals and clear communication.
Please note that because of the depth and individualization of this program, I only accept a very limited number of Board and Train horses per year. Each space is reserved for cases where this immersive approach will truly benefit both the horse and their person.
If you believe your horse may be a good fit, please reach out to discuss availability and suitability.

“I have been working remotely with Brie for awhile now. We started with an assessment that was incredibly thorough and informative. Brie gave many different ideas for enrichment and improving my horses environment. Brie has also been very encouraging and positive with our training. Brie is always sure to point out the good things we are doing in a feedback video and then gives pointers to try next time. The lesson plans are detailed and easy to understand and I always get a quick response if I have any questions. It is so heartening to know I have someone I can turn to for help with my horses training and I am guaranteed to get a kind compassionate response from Brie!”
