This week’s episode Lauren LaFleur talks with Dustin Rogers, a performance horse trainer based in Poolville, Texas. Dustin focuses on training rope horses and reined cow horses. Dustin shares knowledge and experiences from working for two industry legends—Todd Crawford and JD Yates. He shares how the foundation he gained under Todd’s program allows him to create rope horses that are more broke, and ultimately easier to rope on. Beyond training methods, Dustin dives into the values that guide his career—work ethic, building lasting relationships, and what it truly takes to succeed in the horse training business.
