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 safe for both the adopters and mustangs. We also promote the mustang as a great contributor in the equine world.
Be sure to visit with them when they attend events and clinics.

Lanny Leach Horsemanship

Lanny Leach's great grandfather, grandfather and father homesteaded and managed cattle ranches in the Sandhills of Nebraska. He started riding when he was 2, broke his first horse when he was 12 and owned and managed his own cattle ranch in his early 20's. In High School he was a 4-H member, an FFA member and was on the FFA Horse Judging and Demonstration team when his team won the State championship. He competed in high school rodeo and qualified for the National Finals Rodeo in 1973 and was a five-time winner of All Around Cowboy. From 1976 to 1992 he worked cattle on his own ranch or did custom cattle work. He started and trained horses for cattle work and for hay wagon team work. Ranches Lanny worked or managed ranged from 2,800 acres to 20,000 acres. This included taking care of his own ranch and managing other ranches. When Lanny and Kathy moved to Arizona in 2003, Lanny worked as a horse trainer and wrangler at the Tanque Verde Guest Ranch, the Manor Farms and the Amado Ranch before managing the Tanque Verde Stables and running his training business from there in 2005. Lanny conducts horsemanship clinics, starts colts and trains horses for clients. Lanny trains and starts all breeds of horses including wild and gentled mustangs. He does community service in the form of conducting seminars for University of Arizona veterinarian students demonstrating how to handle a horse while administering medical care. Lanny is now located in Tucson, Arizona. If interested in attending lessons, personal training and clinics:
