Doug Carpenter is a legend and if you’re too new to this industry to know who he is, I urge you to take the time to learn about the man who is one of the most influential people the pleasure horse industry has ever known. Carp literally wrote the book on western pleasure. He has raised, trained and shown some of the very best horses to ever step in the show pen. He has won World and Congress Champions, coached youth and amateurs, brokered some of the biggest horse deals ever done and gone on to be successful in both the reining and working cow world as well.
But to me, that doesn’t even begin to describe who he is or the man I know. The older I get, the more I acknowledge the significant people in my life, and Carp is one of them. He has been a mentor in so many different aspects of my life. He taught me how to trade horses, conduct my business, and to treat people ethically and with respect."  - Troy Compton
