The Old Dog on the Porch
There's an old story about a farmer sitting on his porch with his dog laying beside him, moaning and groaning like he's in pain. Neighbor walks up and asks, "What's wrong with your dog?"
Farmer says, "He's laying on a nail."
Neighbor looks confused. "Well why doesn't he get up?"
Farmer shrugs. "Doesn't hurt bad enough yet."
40 years in the saddle. 25 years training champions. Built for the weekend warrior, the small breeder, and the part-time pro who's tired of sitting on a nail.

FBC Consulting
The FBC 30-60 Day Business Transformation Pilot
Most Arabian horse professionals are exceptional horsemen — but running a profitable operation is a completely different skill set. The FBC Business Transformation Pilot is a hands-on consulting engagement designed to take your grassroots horse business from surviving to sustainable.
We start by digging into the numbers that actually matter — your break-even point, your real cost per horse, and where your time is making or costing you money. From there, we build a simple, executable business map tailored to your operation.
By the end of the pilot, you'll have a clear picture of your financial reality, a prioritized action plan, and the fundamentals to stop guessing and start growing.
Includes: Business assessment, two to three virtual consulting sessions, a customized business map with 30/60/90 day action steps, and direct email access between sessions.
This program is for grassroots professionals who are serious about making their horse business work — not just as a passion, but as a profession.
