Born into it.Trained in it.Certified in it.
The credentials behind the advice.
When Montana recommends a change to your horse's nutrition program, it isn't a guess and it isn't a feed company talking point. It's the product of dual certification in equine and human nutrition, years of competitive experience at the highest levels of Quarter Horse sport, and a methodology built around measurable outcomes — not marketing claims.

The story behind the science.
Montana didn't discover horses. She was born into them — her mother Sheila rode while pregnant, and Montana grew up at Professional Farms in Missoula before she could have told you why she loved it. She just knew.
She competed. She qualified for the AQHA World Show four times in Equitation and Horsemanship. She won the Canadian Nationals. She understood what a horse needed to perform at its best long before she could put the science behind it.
Then came a career as a fashion model and entertainment TV host — a world that had its own ideas about how a body should look and feel. Montana went a different direction. She became a certified human nutritionist, applied science to her own health with discipline and intention, and built an active coaching practice helping real people work through real challenges with weight, energy, and wellbeing.
The thread running through all of it was the same: what you put into a body changes what comes out of it. For humans. For horses. The science is different. The truth is the same.
Pure Horse is not a pivot. It is a completion. A certified equine nutritionist who has lived the horse life, competed at the world level, applied nutritional science to humans for years, and is now bringing all of it back to where it started.
Your horse is in good hands.
There is no generic horse and there is no generic feeding program. Montana's process starts with understanding your specific horse — breed, age, workload, body condition, health history, forage quality, and current regimen — before a single recommendation is made.
What makes Pure Horse different is the next step. Using biometric data from wearable sensors, we track how your horse responds to nutrition changes over time. Heart rate recovery. HRV. Activity patterns. These aren't just numbers — they're objective evidence of whether your nutrition program is working.
Most nutrition consultants tell you what to feed. Pure Horse tells you whether it's working.
This isn't just a business. It's personal.
Montana's horses are her horses — not props, not stock photos. Professional Farms, operated by her mother Sheila in Missoula, is the proving ground where the Pure Horse model was first developed and is still being refined today. Every recommendation Montana makes to a client is grounded in the same science she applies to her own animals.
