Hello, my name is Nelson Troyer. I grew up on Amish so I was always around horses. At the age of 15 I started training horses professionally to ride and drive at my brothers ranch. About a year later I got introduced to John Lyons and my training method changed dramatically, from the old cowboy way to actually getting the horse to communicate with me, or rather me communicating with the horse. Now this made a PARTNER not a machine! And I found out that the horses and mules would look for ways to please me, rather then me trying to beat them into submission as there leader.
    Over time I studied Pat Parreli, John Lyons, Clinton Anderson, and Ray Hunt. With a lot of trial and error I figured out what works for me and what doesn't, or rather what comes natural for me and the horse!

      I also over the years have done team roping, showed western pleasure, went through a couple reigning classes. Not only do I ride western but I do hunter jumper, and novice dressage.

donkeys have taught me, is that if I take the time to listen read, love and understand them, they will teach me what I need to teach them. And that is CONSIDERATION.
     And also I need to build a "lingo" with my horse with consistency. ( making the right thing easy and the wrong thing hard) and that is COMMUNICATION. 
     Finally, staying on the same level your horse is on not running ahead or lagging behind, but always the leader. And that is CONNECTION. 
     Through experience I have learned this philosophy works with every equine. (horse, mule, donkey)
