These customers recently sent Sandy high praise for the videos they purchased:

Sandy,
I ordered your herd work dvd last week, and I am still amazed at the amount of information that is in it. I have every cutting video I could find, been to trainers for lessons, and have not heard many of the things that you are saying. How to get your horse cowed up was worth the whole cost. I am looking forward to viewing the rest of the series.
THANK YOU!

Sandy,
Thank you for the Troubleshooting dvds. The herd work was worth the whole price. I heard things in that dvd that no one has ever told me. Some of the things were things I was already doing (maybe Im not so stupid).
Thank you for the valuable service you provide.
Leonard

Sandy,
I just wanted to write and tell you how much I enjoyed your latest video set "Troubleshooting Reined Work".  I am a Prime Time Non Pro Reiner and live 2+ hours from the nearest trainer. For the first 3 years I made the drive weekly for training.
Now I have a great little mare who is very accomplished, and I find I must work on my own a lot more.  Your video gave me a lot of great information on how to deal with things when they go wrong in the show pen. It reinforces what my trainer has been telling me for years. It is easy to review in the comfort of my den. 

These videos are extremely helpful. I am glad I ordered them and will recommend them to my friends. In fact I recently ordered your two Bag of Tricks videos.

Thanks for putting a good product out there.

Sandy,
I was at Dom's in PA watching your clinic a couple months ago because it was full I did not bring a horse. He was kind enough to let me watch. I just want to tell you that 35 years of trainers and lessons (they have been good--they made me who I am this far) but, those two days watching you and the people you where helping--seeing it work through them was the biggest boost I have had in my life. I came home and my program didn't change but was improved ten fold.

When I get up at least four of my mornings start out with me eating breakfast to one of your DVD's before I go up to the barn to start my day. I am not a trainer; I am an amateur who trains my own horses. My western pleasure horses are going better with your DVD's My young  have such a better feel, and the one's I am starting understand it quicker because I know how to communicate it better. Thanks you so much for taking the time to spend with me. If you are ever within a 200 mile drive giving a clinic please let me know I would love to bring a horse.
