Dr. Rob Kiltz

Breanne shares a fun fact about horses and their sleeping habits.

Lynn competed on Dr.Kiltz’s horse Geronimo in the Junior Hunter division at the LCH Master’s Hunter Trials in Cazenovia. They won a 4th place ribbon in the over fences class! Watch the video as they first do a warm up together with Claire riding Chance, then Lynn rides during her competition.

Breanne shows us how to do a horse riding exercise called “Around the world”.

On Sunday Geronimo and his handler, Claire Affleck, attended  Limestone Creek’s opening hunt.  The hunt began with the Parade of Hounds down Main Street in Cazenovia, NY.

Geronimo had a busy weekend. On Saturday he participated in the Limestone Creek Hunt Club Hunter Pace  in Cazenovia, NY, with Lynn as his rider. They had a lot of fun riding the 10 mile pace, with beautiful fields along the way and places to gallop and jump.

On Sunday Geronimo attended a horse show at Heritage Stables in Skaneateles, NY with Lily as his rider. Lily rode Geronimo in the Leadline competition and came away with 7th place. Leadline is where the handler of the horse – in the case Claire from Claire Affleck Training -  leads him around the area as the rider gracefully rides. Lily had to do a trot during the competition as well. Watch the video below as Geronimo’s handler Claire begins to warm up Geronimo initially and then Lily rides him around the ring and concludes with a trot.

Today Claire AffleckTraining took Dr. Rob’s horse Geronimo to a competition in Skaneateles, NY at Heritage Stables. Lily rode Geronimo in a leadline competition, it was the first time she rode him in this particular competition. They both did a wonderful job!

Breanne, one of the exceptional kids that rides and trains with Geronimo at Claire Affleck Training, talks about Geronimo, horse care and shows us how to ride. Thanks Breanne!

Geronimo and his handler Claire Affleck invite you to the farm to take him for a ride.

Dr. Rob purchased his horse Geronimo almost a year ago. As he has worked with him and his trainer, Claire Affleck of Claire Affleck Training, he discovered what a “Gentle Giant” he actually is. Geronimo is indeed a rare find. At first glance he seems so big, and some might say, almost intimidating but he is a true gentleman among horses. He is very well behaved and very good with kids.

Below is a photo gallery of Geronimo on the farm and the last photo is of Breanne, one of the kids that takes lessons and rides Geronimo.
