Owned and operated by Dorothy Wynne, one of the most experienced horse trainers
in the area. Dorothy started her horse education at the age of 12 years on Long Island,
New York, working for full service show barns before starting her career in the Thouroughbred
breeding and foaling arena. She was one of the first women to breed Kentucky Stallions
in New York. She was promoted to working the young horses and then moved on to grooming
on the New York racetrack circuit. She has held licenses in three states, including
New York, Kentucky and Louisiana. After relocating to Texas, Dorothy continued her
career working for several local trainers and continuing her education by participating
in John Lyons and Craig Cameron seminars. In May 2004, she relocated to Manvel and
opened Sundance Ranch, a 35 acre boarding, training, breeding and lesson facility.
She has competed in many events including western pleasure, barrels, trail and jumping
classes. Dorothy's specialty is horsemanship; teaching the amateur owner to ride
their horse, helping potential horse buyers make good purchasing decisions and participating
in local events. Trail riding is her personal favorite, however, she stresses that
the trail rider should have experience before taking on open country. Her students
have participated and won in several local parades, playdays, and horse shows. Dorothy's
experience, horse expertise and love for horses of all breeds and abilities has given
her the desire to educate the student with a basic solid foundation of riding technique
in order to become a good all-around rider.
