Phil starts with a simple, common sense approach of training horses to understand people and teaching people to understand horses. Over the past twenty-five years, Phil has competed in over 1,000 rodeos, qualifying for both the Badlands Circuit Finals and the Prairie Circuit Finals. Winning at both ends of the arena-rough stock and timed events-led to Phil winning the coveted Linderman Award in 1989. In addition to providing the training and discipline to get both horse and rider ready for top-level competition, Phil has developed his own unique colt starting program that consists of developing a horse/rider relationship based on trust and respect, which establishes a strong set of fundamentals. He has had over 1500 horses in training with an Equistat earnings of over $1,000,000. Phil and his family currently reside at the Haugen Training Facility in Weatherford, Oklahoma. Whether at home, in the rodeo arena, or at a clinic near you, each of Phil's experiences contribute to and reinforce his philosophy of "Training through understanding".

In this week's episode, I sit down with Merck Animal Health’s ⁠Dr. Chrissie Pariseau⁠ to discuss what we learned from last fall’s EHV-1 outbreak and how it reinforces the importance of maintaining regular vaccination and booster schedules.

Join us as Dr. Pariseau breaks down common vaccine programs and the importance of minimizing the spread of infectious diseases and maintaining strong biosecurity practices both at home and on the road. This is a must-listen for any horse owner heading into the spring season, when increased hauling and exposure can elevate disease risk.

Tune into Episode 331 as I get into the basics of starting rope horses and some of the things to watch for that early on that can create bad habits down the road. I also touch on the tie-down vs. no tie-down conversation and what to consider when integrating this tool into your training routine.

Catch up on the latest episode of the podcast as I talk about the importance of sharpening your edge.

Every response we get from our horses comes back to us—our thoughts, our body position, and the signals we give. And if we’re not careful, that edge can get a little dull.

Join me as I share some things to focus on to keep your training techniques sharp and effective, creating more clear, consistent signals for your horse.
