Horses That Work

Every great working horse starts with a solid foundation.

Starting today, whether you’re looking to improve responsiveness, build confidence, or strengthen your partnership in the saddle, the Trevor Mertes Horses That Work Clinic is an incredible opportunity to invest in both you and your horse.

At DK Saddlery, we know that great horsemanship and properly fitted equipment go hand in hand. We love supporting opportunities that help horse and rider reach their full potential.

Who’s joining us in Summerland this July? 🤠

Just wrapped up a 3 day Horsemanship Clinic here in Cochrane with the Eagle Feather Riding Club! Was great to meet all the new riders and help advance their horsemanship journey. It’s always awesome to see riding groups catch on to the smallest details of their horse to gain more out of them and direct their intent.

Quick clip from the podcast 😊

Everyone thinks Extreme Cowboy Challenge is just about speed… but it’s not 👀 It’s precision. It’s smoothness. It’s horsemanship under pressure. In the newest episode on the Uncinched Podcast, we sit down with cowboy Trevor Mertes (@horsesthatwork ) to break down what this sport actually takes 🤠 If you have ever been interested in this incredible sport - this episode is for you! 🎧Listen to the episode now “Guest in the saddle - Trevor Mertes” on all of your favourite podcast streaming platforms. 👇🏻Link to Trevor’s website 👇🏻 https://www.horsesthatwork.ca/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio #uncinched #horsepodcast #equestrian #cowboychallenge #yearofthehorse

Had the pleasure of being on the Uncinched podcast and they’ve just dropped the episode here!! If you want to dive in behind the scenes of the horsemanship and obstacles in extreme cowboy as well as horsemanship in general, have a listen and drop your comments below here afterwards!!!

If you watched 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐋𝐋𝐂 or Horse Expo Canada while I was in the round pen starting a c**t and talking about horsemanship, here we dive a bit deeper into it again.

If you want to book a clinic, internationally or in Canada here, there are still a couple weekends available this year and we’re starting to take booking for 2027 as well.
