J
ason Gifford has been involved with the horse industry as a rider,
trainer, showman and student of the horse for more than 14 years.
After high school, Jason was fortunate enough to have worked for a
few large cattle/horse ranches in Wyoming and Colorado, spending many
hours in the saddle. It didn’t take long for Jason to realize that starting

After leaving the cattle ranch life, Jason went to work as an assistant
