Precision Training Testimonials
| Nedra & Wyatt |
This is
something that is definitely way over due!! Wyatt (Montana Silverado)
and I just celebrated our second year Anniversary!! For not having a
better cliché…time sure flies when you’re having fun!! Who would think…
that I could get along so well with a four year old? When Christine saw
us ride for the first time…she knew we would make a great team. I was
just on the back side of a horrible life threatening horse accident…so
choosing a new horse was very hard. I have a wonderful loving and
supportive husband!!
J
Instead of not wanting me to ride anymore…he encouraged me to hunt for
the perfect horse. Wyatt has been that and more…thanks to Christine’s
caring heart and wisdom. Having him home only two weeks… we went on a long
trail ride with our friends and new 5 month old puppy running along. Now
our Golden Retriever puppy (Chase) is 2 ½ and leading Wyatt around the
pasture. He has been on lots of Trail Challenges (even won a few),
working cattle and is now one of the official turn back horses for my
husband’s “2” Cutting Clubs. If I’m in need of a break… there is always
one or two of my friends ready and waiting to jump on his back. Wyatt is
a horse that “ALL” my friends dream about having!! Everyone always
compliments what a kind and sweet horse Wyatt is. They also want to know
if I would ever consider …selling him?
NOT!!! Who would
think… a four year old could help to bring my confidence back??
Thanks
Christine for bringing Wyatt from Montana and doing such an awesome
job getting him ready for me!
Christine
and her family have been a great encouragement to us and we truly value
their friendship and also consider it a huge blessing to have found
them. This is definitely one huge and positive use of the Internet!! If I live long enough to wear out Wyatt…I will
definitely be coming back to Precision Training for another horse!! I
can’t think of anyone else that could even come close to their honesty
and integrity!! |

I just had to write and say “thank you”. We have had B2 for almost
a month now and I can’t tell you how much we love him already. He
is such a sweet horse and so much fun to ride. Nothing bothers
him…even when the chicken ran into his stall he barely budged. He
stands nice and quiet to be saddled and I can jump on his back and
just go. I feel so fortunate to have him. He has bonded with my
other gelding and I am so happy that they have each other as
companions now. I can’t wait to get him working cows…just waiting
for better weather.
Again, thank you for such a wonderful horse. I have had bad
experiences purchasing from other people and I am just thrilled that
you guys are the real deal. If I decide to increase the family in
the future, I’ll give you a call!

| Cia, Hallie , Romy and "Cami" | After over a year of searching for a novice youth horse for my daughters I accidentally stumbled upon a little APHA mare and took a chance and called Christine about her. I must admit it was a little scary to think about buying a horse that I'd never seen in person from people that I had never met personally. Christine was absolutely 100% honest and helped me through the process sending me constant updates, and completely set my mind at ease. This was absolutely one of the greatest decision I have ever made. My girls just got home from their first APHA show and their new horse "Cami" was a rock star. She navigated an 8 year old through a very crowded warm up pen and took such good care of both of them. She is worth her weight in gold and I really have Christine to thank for doing such an amazing job training her and helping me ensure I found the right horse for my girls. I would recommend Precision Horse Training to anyone. Christine goes above and beyond and it is obvious how much she cares about her horses and her clients. Hopefully someday we will make it down to Oregon!! |
| Noel Sweet | After 10 months of looking for my perfect horse, traveling from Vancouver WA to Santa Rosa CA and many points between, I came upon an ad from Precision Training on a 10 year old all around horse. After speaking with Christine at great length she fully understood my specific needs and exactly the horse I was looking for. Having had a horrible horse accident with limitations to my riding she had 3 horses for me to look at. I was planning on a seasoned well behaved older horse to suit my needs, but she had a 3 year old she just knew I would love. I wasn't planning on buying a baby I would have to work with, but Christine in less than 30 days had Kenny started and assured me that he is exactly what I was needing. Kenny was everything she said he was and more. Just a baby, his personality and trusting demeanor fit my long list of expectations. If it would not have been for Christine and her excellent judgment and the time she took talking to me about my needs I would not have the best horse I have ever owned. Legally Approved aka "Kenny" has been to the Idaho wilderness on extreme trails and has packed out Elk from the treacherous mountains, in the show ring winning high point English horse, worked cows moving over 300 head into and out of the mountains, been an excellent babysitter and lesson horse and has now started competing in barrel racing. Kenny is everything I wanted and needed, and I would never have found my Kenny if it weren't for Christine and Precision Training. |
| Kaylah Gilkey | I can not thank Christine and Precision Training enough for all that they have done for me. They are absolutely number one in my book and I will continue to go back to them time and time again for ANYTHING I may need, be it sale horses, breeding, lessons, you name it! They treat every horse in their barn like their own, and only provide the best of care, while always keeping you informed. I highly recommend Precision to ANYONE looking for the best! They are it hands down! |
| Kayla Mainwaring | In 2008 my grandmas Paint mare had a foal and from the time she fell asleep in my lap I knew I wanted to keep her. So I trained her myself and I knew I wanted to do western pleasure with her. I took Windancer to Christine and she made it so easy for me and my horse to understand! Christine made me feel completely comfortable to ride a green horse and take control. I would recommend her to anyone, she is a wonderful trainer! :) |
| Tori Russel | My relationship with Christine started when I bred my mare to her stallion Secret Class, Christine kept me up to date with everything going on during my mares time with her and she took excellent care of my mare and treated her as one of her own. When my mare foaled and there where complications Christine was there every step of the way to offer help and support. I then sent that foal to Christine as a 2 year old for training and she once again treated him as one of her own. Christine did an incredible job with my colt and he is a joy to ride each and every day. Christine is always available for questions and is a true Professional Horsewoman. My story with Christine started as a business relationship and has turned into a friendship that I value and treasure each and everyday. Thanks Christine for all that you have done over the years. |
| Donna, Bend, OR |
All i can say is 'WOW" when i was doing my search for my next horse, i
read the testimonials on your website (which i will be adding to) but
they were absolutely true, you are a standout in your profession, I have
never met a trainer (and there have been many) that was so genuine and
honest. I truly want to extend to you and Katrina my heartfelt
gratitude. I am truly blessed to have met you. I promise to give Tilly
my heart and the best care possible. Thanks again Donna |

I asked Christine if I
could write a testimonial for her website. Normally I have found it is
the other way around, the client is asked to provide one….Please.
Our relationship with Christine began over a phone call regarding a lovely Palomino Mare that we were interested in. We drove 9 hours to meet with Christine and spent an hour with her. Thus began what I consider a wonderful friendship and mentorship for me. Not only has Christine worked tirelessly to help us find our forever horses ( my husband and I ) but she has worked with both of these young horses and trained them to the point where we as novices can enjoy them for many years to come. Everyone associated with Precision Training personifies the term “We are happy to help with any questions or concerns you may have” most people say that but don’t follow thru. I personally experienced the most amazing acts of patience, kindness and knowledge from everyone working at Precision Training. I spent 10 days shadowing each and every member of Christine’s team, while my horse was in training. I was in training too and I Loved It! I learned so much, I thought the best way to learn is to jump in with both feet and work beside these wonderful people. That’s what I did and I can’t thank them enough for everything they taught me…. Rachel, Zack, Hannah, Carissa and of course, Christine. No book in the world is going to replace hands on efforts and teachings by quality people such as this. I look forward to many years of enjoying my beautiful Friesen!... yes a Friesen! (Which is another story altogether) that has been lovingly trained by Christine. I know that if I have a question, the answer is only an email away to the best trainer I had the good fortune to meet. Christine Boehle. With sincerest thanks for your honesty, hard work and wonderful help. |
| Audra Estramado in Gold Hill, OR | About 2 years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to breed my mare for a 2011 foal. That filly arrived just in time as my husband and I endured heartbreak when we lost a child. I spent everyday with that filly and she was my world and I thought she would be forever. However I soon became pregnant again and my husband and I welcomed a baby boy into our lives. Although I loved my filly deeply she was constantly being put as some would say "on the back burner". She went from being an "ahead of the game" weanling to a filly that needed a job quickly. So I contacted Christine at Precision Horse Training and she made me feel like a priority and made me feel like I had some options with my filly. My filly spent not a day more then 30 days in training with Christine and she was a new girl. At that point I had to choose between bringing her home and potentially loosing some of what she had gained or face the option of selling her. That had never been an option until this point. But then, Christine assured me that the filly would be placed appropriately and in a good home and Christine would have it no other way. After all that we had gone thru I couldn't face another heartbreak...but it turned out to be a blessing, not just for my family but for a very deserving family up north who ended up purchasing my filly who now responds to "Buttons". Till this day I am in close contact personally with them, we share photos and videos as well as notes here and there. I couldn't be more happy with the way I was treated by Christine and her family and friends at Precision Horse Training and I would recommend them to not just anybody but everybody! Thank you sooo much Christine, I hope to need your services in the future again. |

Although I worked for Precision
Training, Christine also started my mustang mare under saddle for me.
She did a fabulous job giving my mare a solid foundation in those all
important first rides. She always made sure my mare understood and
was ready before moving on, and returned to me a responsive, safe and
happy horse. My first ride was so wonderful. I can't thank Christine
enough!!!
Christine also started, and sold, my
very bold, energetic Friesian Sporthorse mare under saddle, giving her
the same great foundation that would make her ready to go any
direction her new owners might wish to go. I have seen her work with
a wide variety of horses with different temperaments, and different
goals for their owners. I would never hesitate to send any of my
horses to her for training. I only wish I still lived closer!

I have had my two Stallions and young filly in training with Precision Training spanning the last three years. Christine Boehle is one of the most upstanding, honest, and good hearted people I have ever met. I have entrusted her with the care of my mares for breeding as well as the foals at their sides. Christine has always gone above and beyond to give my horses the best care possible. I wouldn't trust any other trainer on the face of the Earth to care for my horses as well as shape their young minds. Precision Training is a top notch facility and Christine Boehle is one of the best horse trainers to come along in my life time. |

My
testimonial is going to be a little different, I have known
Christine for a LONG time, one thing that I can say without a doubt
is that Christine is a rarity in the industry, first and foremost
she puts the safety and welfare of the horses before anything.
Christine is honest and is truly concerned about finding the perfect
partnership between horse and rider. I have had the privilege to
work with her as well as know her on a personal level. Christine
sold a breeding stock paint gelding for me about 7 years ago. I had
the horse at another trainers and had made arrangements to go and
pick the horse up to deliver it to Christine. We had discussed what
had been done with this horse over the phone as well as what I
needed to get out of him financially when he sold. I let Christine
know the price that I was asking for this gelding and by the time
that I got the horse up to her place she had seven buyers lined up
to look at him. The first lady that came to look at him bought him,
the only complaint that Christine had was she said "if I knew that
he was THIS nice I would have had you ask more for him, he is worth
much more than you told me that he is". I will continue to do
business with Precision Training as I am always impressed with the
character that of the Precision Training Staff possesses.

Precision
Training has been an amazing experience for us! We took a young horse
there to be evaluated, as we thought he wouldn't be good "show horse"
material. Christine soon showed us the error of our ways! Not only
did our 13 year old daughter win a few Championships in her age group
in both English and Western performance classes, she took just about
every Reserve Championship you can think of in both the 13 & under and
Novice Youth categories - in his first year of showing! Reserve
champion junior horse for both English and Western performance -
driven by a 13 year old? How often do you see that happen? He's
being finished in the bridle this year, and we anticipate great
things. Thanks to Christine for helping to build Casey's confidence,
and showing her the positive results of dedication, attitude and hard
work. We've always known she was a winner, and with Christine's help,
soon everyone else will know that too!
Thanks Christine and Heath! |

I can't really explain all the good times I've had with Precision Training. I've been through a few trainers but Christine's been the best. I've NEVER felt like I couldn't ask her a question. If I had a question and she was doing something she would stop and listen to what I had to say. It doesn't feel like she's our trainer, it feels more like she's a part of our family. At every show we've gone to it's always been fun, and coming from a kid, that's really important. she's more of a show mom. My parents usually work the shows, so I'm usually on my own. Heath is always there to lend a hand, hold a horse, or just offer encouragement. So all I can say is there the best trainer and encourager there is. |

Ok, Here goes...I met Christine and her staff last year when bringing my mare to her facility in Placerville for breeding. My husband and I were treated very special, I was amazed at their well maintained, and organized facility. I was also very happy how well they all took care of my mare "Mindy" she was groomed to perfection every day that she stayed there she was bedded down in clean shavings, and her stall was always cleaned out regular. Their facility was excellent and very clean, every one was so polite, and made us feel so comfortable. Christine always updated me on my mare during her stay. This is the best facility I have ever taken a mare to for breeding. I never worried about Mindy's care, she looked beautiful and well groomed when I picked her up.We were more than satisfied with everything about the facility, and especially Christine, she is an amazing person, and an excellent trainer. We had a wonderful positive experience dealing with Precision Training. I would refer any one to their new facility in Oregon for breeding and/or training. |

I have known Christine Boehle for over seven years. When I first met her I was looking for a trainer for both me and my horse. Christine is the “go to” person when I have questions about anything horse related. She is just a phone call or email away – and is very prompt about getting back to you. When my horse injured himself and needed to be rehabilitated, I turned to Christine and her staff at Precision Training. He received excellent care and lots of attention, and is doing great. It is very reassuring to me to know a person like Christine – no matter what, she will be there to help me if I ever need help. |

I had the pleasure of meeting Christine several years ago when I was looking to breed my mare to a paint stallion that was standing at her facility. When we arrived, she showed us the stallion we were interested in but then introduced us to another one who was living right next to a mare and she told us that he had a wonderful disposition, was athletic and smart. We chose that one and were delighted with the foal we got, who carried that sire’s disposition. When she moved to her next place, we were lucky enough to be literally five minutes away and when we decided to start our Arabian gelding, we took him up to her. She did a wonderful job with him and when we were having trouble loading him in our trailer, she popped right over and loaded him up and took him back to her place to teach him to load more easily. Christine was there for us when we were leaving on vacation but had a mare that was due to foal. We took our very pregnant mare up to her place, where she monitored her 24/7 and helped her foal out. When my mare was having difficulties after foaling, she called her vet who came right out to help. She has been there for us when we have any questions, problems or need advice. She is always readily available and happy to help. She also made a video of my Arabian gelding and put him on a website for us. Her help on the ranch were also super nice and helpful and we looked forward to their annual Christmas parties. Now that she has packed up and moved to Rogue River , we are devastated! It makes us want to move up there as well. I highly recommend her facility and staff to anyone, whether it be to stand a stallion, train a young horse or learn to show, she can do it all! We really miss her! |
