Terry has been showing horses for almost 40 years.  She has been teaching and training for over 25 years.  Terry judged open shows for 10 years, fox hunted for 15 years and has been working with Richard Shrake for the past 8 years.  You could say she has been there and done that.

Terry grew up on a small farm in Baltimore, Maryland where her parents raised and showed Appaloosas. In addition to showing Appaloosas at local, national and world levels; Terry has shown at 4-H, Quarter Horse and Paint Breed shows, side-saddle, dressage, barrel races and rodeo, fox hunts and hunter paces.  She has shown at the prestigious Upperville Horse Show, Washington International Horse Show and Pennsylvania National Horse shows.   In 1989, Terry was certified to judge open horse shows, in 2005 Terry was accredited by Richard Shrake as a Resistance Free Trainer and Instructor and in 2006 she became an American Riding Instructors Association Level II certified Western Riding Instructor as well as a Level I Recreational Riding Instructor.
 
Now Terry concentrates on teaching and helping others reach their goals with horses.  She is helping her husband Larry realize his dream of racing Thoroughbreds.  The goal is to breed, raise and race Thoroughbreds keeping the well being and soundness of the horses first and foremost. 

Terry's lesson and clinic program specializes in developing good basic horsemanship skills, emphasing safety for the rider and the well being of the horse. She teaches horses and their owners together. Most of her students have their own horses and bring them to Buck N Horse Hollow for private and group lessons. Some students ride her retired barrel horses. Her students ride English and Western.  Some students show their horses but most ride for pleasure

One of Terry's passions is to help young barrel racers and their horses. Every summer she has Pony Club for young riders and their horses or ponies. She says a good barrel horse first needs to be a good broke horse. She uses basic dressage and reining maneuvers, bringing the barrel horses along slow and steady. Her barrel horses will perform a low level dressage test, go fox hunting, trail riding and are quiet enough to safely carry a small child for a riding lesson. 

Terry and Larry Peiper are constantly upgrading and improving their 60 acre Buck N Horse Hollow farm near Carlisle, PA to provide an excellent environment for training horses.   It is obvious that Terry truly loves helping horses with their people.
