Taylor Dockter & Lyric
Her ten hour trip began with the hauler saying
“we eventually got her on”.
Once home she immediately tried to scale the stall door
and broke the first of many halters.
Eight months later she remained terrified of her world,
combative to pressure, and genuinely unhappy.
The cycle of saddle fitting appointments, massage, Ulcer treatments,
And more seemed to barely scratch the surface and I was at the end of my rope.
For the first month at Cloud Nine her training looked like sitting,
sitting, and more sitting. Slowly, I stopped watching the clock or thinking about when we could go on to the next step.
She would not let me fake it. I had to be genuinely present and truly relaxed.
Through Cloud Nine I learned what it meant to work on a different timeline.
The milestones became smaller yet infinitely more rewarding.
Today, she comes up to me in the field, ground ties, seeks out the mounting block,
lunges at liberty, trail rides on a loose rein, self loads into the trailer, and can be ridden in a halter.
I am truly grateful for Cloud Nine Ranch
and the environment that has been carefully created to help anyone willing to learn how to truly listen to their horse and create a lasting connection.

Ginger Hipp & Honey
Cloud Nine 2018 I bought a mare that was impossible to catch in a pasture and
my anxiety toward riding was uncomfortable and uncontrollable.
Nancy talked me into coming to a clinic at
her farm to learn about liberty work!
I've been hooked ever since.
That mare is now my most trusted friend.
The confidence and trust I have in my horses have grown in leaps and bounds.
The monthly clinics they hold have become one of my most
favorite times to bond with other like minded people
to develop better communication and skills with our horses.
I recommend Cloud Nine Ranch to everyone I can.
