Her deep love and respect for all types of horses has served Kari well particularly while working with a wide variety of horses and ponies, including Thoroughbreds, Standardbreds, Shetlands, Welsh, Appaloosas, Quarter Horses, Percherons, Belgians, Clydesdales, Friesians, Morgans, Oldenburgs, Swedish Warmbloods, Duth Warmbloods, Arabians, Paints, Pintos, Hafflingers, Tennessee Walkers, and Mustangs, among others.
