About France Vanier

Pine Haven Quarter Horses is a business built out of childhood dreams. As far as I can remember, horses have been a great passion for me. I have always admired their strength and power. Working and training horses was my dream, and it's my determination and willpower that gave me the chance to study with the world's best instructors:

  • I studied with Tania and J.C. Daudelin to complete Level 1 Western Coach in 1998 at Ranch JC Daudelin.
  • I studied with Richard Shrake in 1999 to complete Level 1 of his Apprenticeship Program.
  • I completed the Western Intermediate Level with Lyne Laforme at Calixa Lavallé in 2001.
  • AND, in 2002, I studied with John & Josh Lyons in Parachute, Colorado to complete his certification program.
  • I am also a regular columnist writing articles on horse training for "Cowboy Magazine".

My husband Eric, my two daughters, Amélie (2 years old at the time ) and Laura (2 months old), and I embarked on a journey that would change our lives forever. We went to Parachute Colorado to study with John & Josh Lyons so that I could receive my certification. It took me 5 years to achieve my goals; hard work, determination and faith made me who I am today.
