He also posesses a flair for re-training and believes that all horses have the potential to be excellent. Dave also teaches driving lessons in partnership with CK Performance Horses, taking over instruction after the driving basics are learned. He enjoys challenging the students and introducing them to advanced driving techniques. He currently owns and works three teams (a light hitch and a medium-heavy hitch and a pony hitch) and can be seen in and around the community doing public events such as pulling crowds of eager tourists at local Heritage Day celebrations, many weddings and parades. He also competes his medium-heavy team in chore team competitions. 
Cheryl has had a lifelong passion for horses, but only recently returned to the saddle following time away to pursue her academic studies. Cheryl, along with her talented horse Double Time, have been training with Chantelle in the refined methods of classical dressage with the hopes of making their show ring debut in 2011. Cheryl has quickly become an active participant in the day to day activities of CK Performance Horses and Davlin Farms.
