No matter what kind or level of training the horse needs, we always train them using a natural approach, with no artificial aids. Extensive use of flat work and jumping gymnastics, as well as lots of outside riding, exposes our horses to a variety of environments and prepares them to face most situations. So when you buy a horse from Ruffian Stables, you are acquiring a quality horse, and you can be sure that he was trained to give you an incredible riding experience, for pleasure and competitive riders.
