Miniature Horse Training Program
At KM Miniatures, we offer a thoughtful, consistent training program designed specifically for miniature horses. Our focus is on developing confident, willing partners—whether your goal is the show ring, driving, or a well-mannered horse at home.
With years of hands-on experience working with breeding stock, young prospects, and seasoned show horses, we understand that miniature horses require patience, clear communication, and individualized attention. Every horse in our program is treated as an individual, with training tailored to their experience, and future goals.
Our Training Philosophy
We believe that solid foundations create successful horses. Our program emphasizes:
Correct basics done properly from the start
Calm, consistent handling
