Rick "builds champions, One at a time"! The "Vaquero way".

By incorporating traditional or "Vaquero" training methods, Rick is able to build a superior product by subjecting each horse through the NRCHA required 4 discipline training program, e.g.,:
  • Snaffle Bit, Hackamore - Bosal, Two Rein - Double Bridle, Bridle.
These traditional Old Style or Vaquero training methods produces a horse that's confident, responsive as a whisper to the rider's subtle hand and leg cues, a willing partner that loves its work, an elite cow horse, and a great performer in the show pen.

Our horses and Customers Come First

Rick treats each horse and customer with the respect they deserve. Each training agreement is accompanied by a "Written Contract" and "Money Back Guarantee" delineating the exact required training along with specific charges for services rendered. Horse abuse and prohibited drug use is strictly prohibited at Rick's training facility.

Rick Promise's You the Best

Rick promises each customer that the horse they receive will meet or exceed the customers expectation or it doesn't leave the barn.  Rick had one goal in mind when he established Wind River Stock Horse, i.e., to provide Louisiana equestrians with alternative breeding stock, and an opportunity to ride the best horse they'll ever own!
