About Robin Desmond and what she does

I take great pride in my business and our horses.
We will help your horse find its way in life if it is driving or riding.
When asking a horse to learn it should have
consistent training with someone they will trust and respect.
Consistency is the key.
We will gain the respect of your horse as a friend and a teacher.
He or she will have a full time job.
We make their job interesting and fun so they are not bored and look forward to learning.

were as a child Robin's mother would buy horses and ponies from the auction and  turned Robin
