  • "The COBIT has been incredibly valuable! It takes the "guesswork" out & provides practical real world knowledge that directly translates to better outcomes for the horse. I've seen it help our own horses drastically. Without question, Ross is an excellent teacher - patient, thorough, and very willing to explain things in a way that actually make sense. He takes the time to answer questions, encourages learning, and genuinely cares about improving both the horse and the horse owner's understanding. His willingness to help & share knowledge has made a huge difference for me."

  • "I attended a demonstration a couple of years ago. I have one particular horse I still use the COBIT on all the time, so he's not stumbling or dragging his toe. Everyone thought he had navicular. He just needed to be trimmed differently."
