March, 2006 - Liz, Thank you so very much for letting me borrow your saddle, it was very kind of you. You and Stuart have both helped me so much. From training my horse to helping me become a much better rider. You have given me many wonderful memories. I look forward to many more great times. Thank you so much! Sincerely, Heather - Fosterdale, NY

- Dear Stuart and Elizabeth: I can't thank you enough for the time and effort you put into the September
11th Horse Training Clinic that you held at Schauber Hill Farm in Ballston
Lake, NY. Dean is a great salesman but seeing is believing. You were amazing
with the horses and the difference in the horses (and handlers) from the
beginning of the clinic until the end was.... unbelievable. We are looking
forward to your next clinic with us this October 14th & 15th! Could
you please send me a schedule so that I can post it? You really do need
to give yourself a few breaks through out the day. 9am-5pm is too long
of a shift to go without breaks. Think of the spectators, they need breaks
but are too afraid that they will miss something so they won't leave their
seats to use the restroom! Thank you again for everything. We are looking forward to seeing you again.
Sincerely, Pam Machado - Schauber Hill Farm
very SWEET....a little lonesome but I will get her in with another four month old soon, now she can only see a broodmare and her 1 1/2 mo. old foal....will see you soon....the clinic in N.Y. at Balston Spa sounds good.

Aug 21, 2005 - Stuart, I didn't get to thank you Saturday for the training session with Joy (the paint filly that Dean has been keeping for me). I can see where I'm the one that needs the training more than the horse and what I know about horses you can put in a tea cup, but I learned so much just watching on Saturday.
I ended up selling Joy to the other gentleman that was there with the big 3 year old. I have some health issues right now that prevent me from being able to take care of her - which breaks my heart. But he will give her a good home and that's all that matters to me.
Anyway, the real reason for the email other than to
say thank you is that I was wondering if you could tell me how you like to have
your training sessions set up because we have a farm store here in Schoharie
which I am quite sure would put one on for you. But before I talked with
them I wanted to be able to tell them how you charge, what you would charge
them, how many horses you would want in the session, etc. Maybe sometime in
late Sept or early Oct would work since I know you are doing the auction with
Dean in Vermont.

July 2005 - Hey, tried to call this afternoon but the line was busy. Wanted to let you guys know that we saddle broke Orion today!! We thought he was too young at coming 17 months but since he’s already 15.2h figured his frame could take it. We knew his mind was ready since he begs for human companionship like his sire does. I was completely amazed at how easy he took the girth pressure and Kevin’s 190 lb frame on his back as Kevin asked him to move forward. I also can’t tell you how happy we are using your positive training techniques with our young stock in our breeding program. The foal rope halter we bought from you earlier this spring has paid dividends in halter breaking our two weanlings this season. The patient ‘gentling’ you teach proves that the natural horsemanship philosophy is essential as a training technique from cradle to grave for horse stock in order to keep them in touch and content in their relationship with a ‘friendly predator’ Kudos to Terrace Green Horsemanship!!! Happy Fourth of July! All the Best, Andrea and Kevin - SkyDog Farm in NY
April 2005 - I am so excited. When I rode Rocky today I did what you showed me. He was giving me his head. Actually dropping it. I gave him the quick release. I have worked on this for 8 months. You got him to respond in an hr. As I trot around on a loose rein and apply some pressure, his head dropped. I am so excited about this!!! You both are incredible. Buying a young horse doesn't scare me, especially one coming from your farm. Paints are my favorite, however, I'm open to any nice horse. Well thanks again. Just had to let you both know about my ride with Rocky today. Thanks again, Janice Ridge - NY

July 2004 - Thank you so much for training shadow and giving us lessons. You did a great job on Shadow and I think He'll be a great riding horse. I really enjoy learning how to ride better, but I wish I could of had more lessons. The thing I enjoyed most about lessons was the trail ride, we learned while having fun. Thank you so much for the training! Michelle Livingston - Manor, NY
Sept 2003 - Just wanted you to see how "Bailey" has grown. Heather did a showmanship class with her last month and she was great. Heather also saddle broke her this summer. She still needs work but she is an excellent baby. Hope all is going well with you! Enjoy the photo and thank you for selling us such an excellent horse! Penny + Heather - Jeffersonville, NY
