Complaint / Review
Erin McElmurry and Hawthorne Sterling Farms
Stay away dangerous training techniques and crazy person

Please stay away from this horseback riding trainer and barn owner.
She is a irate person that will yell and scream at each student whether is the a young rider to an adult. The screaming will continue from the lessons at the barn all the way to horse shows in front of anyone surrounding you. She goes off on unrelatable tangents about the barn, your horse, money, and personal affairs. She has no problem talking behind everyones back. She will tear your horse apart to others and say what a piece of crap you have, but will gloat about them to your face.
She will pressure you into buys things for your horse you do not need. If you refuse she will tell you, you are horrible horse owner and begin uncontrollably screaming in your face (and might throw things). Please have your guard up and blockers intact.
Do NOT become an employee. She will over work you and not pay you for all of the work. You will have to do things for no payment becuase she feels its not pay worthy. Paychecks never come on time becuase apparently her personal affairs and boyfriends come first. Plus she has no money to pay anyone. WARNING: She has been to cout numerous time for failure to pay employees and others in contracts.
She has an abusive personality toward people, horses, and dogs. She will verbally and mentally abuse clients, lessoners, and boarders. She will physically abuse her horses will over whipping and spurring to the point they have welts. She has no problem doing this at home or at shows. Complaints at USDF shows have been made by other riders and judges. She is also quite abusive to her dog and boyfriend. Poor guys!
The people defending this messages have been asked by Erin to rebutal in her defense, because she is down to less than a handful of clients. I am sure they have been pressured into commenting or she has made the comments herself. (Hint: They all have the same title)
All of these comment that have been made are true and not enhanced by any means. They have all been on an experience basis!
Please steer clear of her, especially when there are so many other great barns and trainers in the area. Save yourself your time, money, and animals (plus yourself's) welfare.
