Rescheduling/Cancellations:
Please remember that we have reserved a special time to work with you and your horse (usually well in advance). Though we will attempt to fill your horse's time in cases of cancellation / rescheduling on short notice, it is not always possible to do so. In cases where a substitute cannot be arranged and to avoid a $35.00 per session Cancellation Fee, please notify us by telephone (leaving a message) or by email, at least 48 hours in advance of your horse's scheduled appointment time.
