We met and started working with Mike Brennan a couple of years ago. He started by doing a colt starting demo at our Family Fun Day which people still talk about. The next time we saw his amazing talent, he came and conducted a Colt Starting Clinic last fall for a very fortunate four horse and rider teams. Once we got to see Mike in action, Lee and I wanted to send our horse Tatanka to train with Mike. Tatanka is a 3 year old gelding and has been the practice horse around here when we need a green horse to demonstrate with. What a great experience! Mike worked patiently with our guy, leading him to put his energy to a purpose and now that the green has been kindly but firmly worked out of our favorite gelding, Lee can now get to work cowboying with his "Tonka" (lovingly nicknamed by Mike and his crew over at Unity Ranch). We highly recommend Mike Brennan to get your young horse started and backed so that you can feel safe in the saddle working with your horse on to the next level. Jewel and Lee Bandy
