LRTC Wild Horse Mentors'
WILD HORSE WORKSHOP 2000
Part Nine

Robert Denlinger

Robert is one of the more interesting members of the program. He is the one to which folks on the east coast bring their "hopeless cases." Having worked for years out in the Nevada range, he's all natural horseman and has a whole repertoire of mannerisms and techniques for gaining a horse's attention in a non-threatening manner.

Robert focuses primarily on troubled horses including a those that have been mishandled and exhibit significant behavioral problems.
