Testimonials

For nearly 10 years I tried to have someone teach me about horses, and it didn't work.  All the gurus were either charlatans or wanna-be's, or rip-offs. Then I met the Toomby's, and found a new world where horses were understood and communicated and, wonder of wonders, actually did what you wanted them to do!  No brutality or trickery, just the real deal where horses are communicated with and understood, and they could even teach me how to do the same.  They are (to use an Americanism) "true whisperers", and in fact, far ahead of the big names in their ability to communicate and teach.  If only I'd met them 10 years earlier life would have been a lot different.

I would recommend Geoff and Vicki to anyone wishing to gain a deeper understanding of their horses and therefore, greatly increase their safety in working with them.  At the Charleville Vet Surgery we sponsor all members of our Veterinary Team (vets and nurses) to attend at least one Toomby Horsemanship clinic.  Geoff is also a master with young horses, achieving impressive results through trust and a deep understanding of the horse.

I have been associated with the Toomby's for 35 years.  During this time I have seen Geoff and Vicki develop their horse and canine skills to a level which benefits the wider rural community of northern Australia.  Positive feedback from their past students suggests that all those interested in working with dogs and horses could profit from their experience.

Geoff & Vicki have been working with our staff & horses for many years.  They are unequalled in their dedication to passing on their knowledge and steering people in the right direction.  They seem to understand the individual needs of those they are teaching and are happy to put in the extra time sometimes required.   They manage to work one on one even in a group situation.  We are hoping to continue our relationship well into the future.
