| Testimonials: |
| Barry's commitment and detection to horsemanship is remarkable. What impresses me the most about Barry is his ability to communicate his expertise to the average horseman. These concepts are hard to grasp but somehow Barry teaches in a way that most people leave the clinics with a clear picture of how a horse thinks and reacts. Barry is a true teacher: he teaches the horse and most importantly he teaches people how to teach their horses.

"There are some good horseman, but not all of them have the ability to teach and help the student learn how to do it themselves the way Barry does!
I admire the dedication Barry has to study horsemanship and horse training. He has been at it for so long but is always willing to learn more"
Scott McClaran
Rancher, Joseph, Oregon

| "Barry has the ability to work with all kinds of horse from wild un-broke horses to the abused and troubled horses. He has enough patience and a great sense of humor to work with all kinds of people from the beginner to the advanced horseman,"
Brent Jenson
Secretary and Treasurer of the National Foundation Quarter Horse Association and
owner/breeder at the Jazz Ranch of Foundation Quarter Horses in Joseph, Oregon

| "I became a student of Barry's over a year ago when I needed help with an unbroke problem horse. You can expect a 'change for the better' every time he helps you and your horse. Not only is Barry good at understanding the horses mind, he is also good at working with the human. If you want more than mediocre results, what he has to offer is very worth while for anyone willing to take the time to learn."
Sandy Twigg
Accountant & Horse Owner Enterprise, Oregon

| "No matter what horse Barry rides, he always makes that horse look good. When ever I need to have my horse checked out before I ride him, I take him to Barry."

| "Unlike some other trainers he doesn't treat you as though you are an idiot, doesn't patronize or get cross. He imbues you with the enthusiasm to do more when you get home."

Dressage Instructor, Wallowa, Oregon

| "What we like about a 'Barry Cox' Workshop is Barry's talent of teaching. Barry understands not only the horse, but also his students. Barry's style and training techniques are unique in meshing together his skills with that of Ray Hunt, Tom Dorrance, Pat Parrelli and many other masters of the trade. Barry has become his own master in teaching people of all ages and working with horses of all ages. If you own horses it's a must to attend one of his clinics. We raise Registered Morgan Horses and with the aid we acquired from Barry we are able to sell young horses that have a good start in life. "

| "With Barry’s natural horsemanship clinics, backcountry pack trips, registered Spanish Mustangs for sale, and kids loping' around learning to have fun with horses, Barry and Cheryl Cox's Grey Thunder Ranch is emerging as the center of horse life in Oregon's Wallowa County. "
Tom Hebert,

"Barry has found a way to communicate with horses and people on a level that is easy to understand and appreciate. Barry has developed a method of working people through rough spots that can happen in the training of young horses or a problem that comes along with an older broke horse. Barry's sense of timing and understanding of what is happening from the horse's prospective and whose ability to communicate his knowledge has been a great help to me.
As a 4-H horse leader working with young riders sometimes problems arise that are beyond what I want to deal with. I feel very confident in recommending Barry to these 4-H members. He has a natural talent for recognizing the source of the problem and helping find a solution. His gentle quite manner is easy for kids, horses, and parents. I appreciate having him as a resource in Wallowa County."
