About Quinton & Danielle Des Fountain

Horses and riders often require help in finding common ground. We accomplish this by creating a strong foundation in the horse and move forward one step at a time. We work creatively and encourage both the rider and the horse to adjust to each other. We consider all the needs of the horse - physical, mental, and emotional - and develop a work environment that is enjoyable as well as effective.

We actively develop horsemanship in all our riders as well as showmanship. Quinton Des Fountain specializes in starting colts and retraining problem horses.

Quinton has shown in regional, national, and international competition, and uses a blend of natural and classical techniques as a foundation for his training program. The other part of the team is nationally accredited trainer Danielle Des Fountain. Her dedication, hard work, and commitment to success have allowed each client and horse to achieve their goals.
