Joe Webb (horse trainer)

[1] Webb first began training Tennessee Walking Horses after meeting Dr. Porter Rodgers while attending college.

Webb trained Tennessee Walking Horses exclusively out of a show stable at Searcy, Arkansas.

[3] Webb's second World Grand Champion, Carbon Copy, was trained to obey voice and whistle commands.

The virus caused a quarantine to be put in place, blocking horses from Arkansas and several other states from going into Tennessee, where the Celebration is held.

[7] Webb wrote a how-to book entitled The Care and Training of the Tennessee Walking Horse, which was first published in 1967.
