BLACKSBURG, VA (August 27, 2007) – The Virginia Natural Horsemanship Training Center today announced the release of the latest addition to its Whispering Way™ Foundation Training Series DVDs, called the Complete Guide to Horse Breeding, Foaling and Foal Training. The 3-DVD set includes a total of over four hours of video instruction featuring Natural Horsemanship trainer and horse breeding expert, Bob Claymier.
Over one and a half years in the making, the Complete Guide to Horse Breeding, Foaling and Foal Training is the first video series to show the entire horse breeding and early foal care process. Expert horse breeder, Bob Claymier, guides the viewer through every step in a successful horse breeding program -- from selection of the mare and stallion, to mare care and exams, to actual live cover and artificial insemination breeding procedures, to foal birth and imprinting, and finally on to early foal handling and training. Each step is documented with live video examples and is accompanied by expert commentary from Bob and the highly experienced veterinarians, farriers and others that help make his breeding program so successful.
According to Bob Claymier, “As a professional horse breeder and Natural Horsemanship trainer, I have received many requests over the years from horse owners needing information about the correct way to approach the whole breeding, early foal handling and foal training process. The steps to a successful breeding and foal training program sometimes seem complex and somewhat mysterious to people, since there has been very little information out there that demonstrates in a straightforward and easy-to-follow way exactly how responsible breeding should be done.” Claymier continued, “To help fill this information gap, I collected actual video footage here at my own horse breeding facility for well over a year and a half, detailing every step of this process, and the result is this unique new DVD set. By following along with this DVD journey into the exciting world of horse breeding, prospective horse breeders and new foal owners can finally take the mystery out of this process and make it safer, more successful and more enjoyable for both the horses and their owners.”
