Join us at the ResqRanch for an immersive equine experience every Thursday at 430pm!
Become a ResqRanch Trailblazer: Forge a New Path for Horses and Their People (that includes You too!)
Do you feel a deep connection to horses? Are you searching for a way to turn your passion into a powerful force for good? Here in the U.S., thousands of horses, including majestic wild mustangs and retired racehorses, are in desperate need of a safe landing and a gentle, understanding hand. The truth is, the world needs more people who truly care for them.
That’s why the ResqRanch created the ResqRanch Trailblazers.
This isn’t just another riding lesson. This is a movement. The Trailblazers is a weekly community gathering for compassionate horse lovers of all ages, dedicated to creating a better future for equines. Together, we are embarking on a mission to dramatically increase the number of people skilled in the art and science of Positive Reinforcement (R+) training. By joining, you become a vital part of the solution, helping to prepare the world to welcome and care for every horse in need.
For anyone age 5 and up. Adults, kids, everybody can do this!
Kids ages 5 through 11 must have one adult with them. This adult does NOT have to pay.
A Journey of Discovery: The Four Pillars of the Trailblazer Program
Every Thursday, we’ll dive deep into the four essential pillars that create truly exceptional horse people. This holistic approach ensures you grow not just as a trainer, but as a partner and advocate for the animals you love.
Horse Health: With expert guidance from our founding veterinarian, we’ll help you understand equine wellness from nose to tail. We’ll cover everything from basic care and nutrition to the holistic options used every day at our affiliated veterinary hospital, like acupuncture and laser therapy, to help horses thrive.
Horse Training with Positive Reinforcement (R+): Discover the science-backed, trust-based methods to communicate effectively and build an unbreakable bond. You’ll learn how to create a willing partnership where your horse is an enthusiastic participant in their own learning.
Health of the Horse Trainer: A successful partnership requires a healthy, centered human. We'll explore mindfulness, physical awareness, and the self-care strategies that allow you to be the calm, confident, and present leader your horse deserves.
Horse Advocacy: Find your voice and learn how to make a tangible difference. We’ll empower you with the knowledge to educate your community, support rescue efforts, and become an influential advocate for equine welfare.
Your Guide on the Trail: Dr. Q
Your guide on this journey is Dr. Jena Questen (Dr. Q), the founder of ResqRanch. As a holistic veterinarian, a Certified Professional Animal Trainer, and a mom, her entire life is dedicated to the well-being of animals and the people who love them.
