Trainers and Clinicians

The Mustangs of America Foundation is partnering with professional trainers/clinicians to provide adopters with training information and resources. The intent is to provide adopters with sound advice and training practices. Our goal is for adoptions to be successful and safe for both the adopters and mustangs. We also promote the mustang as a great contributor in the equine world.

Logan Leach

Logan grew up on a cattle ranch in the sand hills of Nebraska. His best memories as a young child are sorting cattle on the family ranch and roping calves for brandings. Throughout his childhood, Logan was an active member in 4-H horse shows and junior rodeo. While working with his dad, Logan learned from a young age the importance of a good work ethic, and more importantly a well broke horse. Riding an assortment of horses, Logan also learned the importance of practice when increasing your knowledge of how horses learn and react. Logan continued to stay active with horses through his youth, but it wasn’t until he transferred from Mid-America Nazarene College in Kansas City, Kansas, to Grand Canyon University in Glendale, Arizona, that he started to gain an interest in training horses with his dad. Logan, when not doing school activities, would travel to Tucson and ride horses for his dad, learning the skills to become a horse trainer. After graduating college with a Business Administration Degree, Logan then was accepted to go to the United States Border Patrol Academy in Artesia, New Mexico. While becoming and being a Border Patrol Agent, Logan always thought of what it would be like to work full time with his dad. After nine months serving with the Border Patrol, Logan accepted the opportunity to work full-time alongside his dad being a horse trainer. Logan truly feels blessed he’s able to share such a strong bond with his dad through the training of the horse.
