First ride in the arena for this pretty Conman filly today.

If you are looking for a horse, check with us as we may have something!

We have everything from well performed campdraft geldings to an exceptionally bred cutting mare to sweet and naughty ponies…

I am headed to the US next month and need to lighten the load so I will keep what doesn’t sell.

A few are 🦄 and would perform for the whole family so they are priced as such.

Everything is for sale not on sale. 😉

Prices start low $x,### for ponies up to $66k.

It’s that time of year again…if you are looking for someone to start your horse, not just break it in, give us a shout.

It has moved beyond trolling to just plain bullying.

I know many people in the horse business that are facing pressures from every direction, entitled customers, pressure to perform and added attacks online just aren’t needed.

So I feel I speak for everyone when I say enough is enough and I will no longer be the bigger person and ignore it.

When you reach out with intent to harm a person’s business or reputation, it does not matter how small the claim maybe. It is the malicious intent behind the matter. Little things may not seem big to you, but you never know what someone is going through! ✌🏼

“Tricia, why do you acknowledge the haters? They don’t matter.”

Yes, you’re right. However, I HATE bullies, and frankly, people are WAY TOO COMFORTABLE behind these little screens. Used to be, you’d get popped in the mouth, and now, well, you get a response and I’m happy to share.

You don’t get to bully me or my friends and get a free pass. Now, I’m not going to tell you to “F*** off” even though I want to sometimes, 🙈 but I will respond with dignity and respect towards you, even though you don’t show me any in kind. I will respond with facts. If we don’t see eye to eye, that’s cool, I’m not going to change what I’m doing and I certainly don’t take advice from anyone who isn’t doing the things I want to do or living the way I want to live.

Now, a BIG PART of why I share, is because I’m not chained down, I run my own business, I make my own money, I don’t have sponsors and to be quite honest, if I don’t like someone, I don’t have to do business with them and that’s my choice. I see it as a good way to bring light to mean people, and light my friends, is the best disinfectant. ☀️

How many young woman and men deal with bullying all the time? I hope they see it doesn’t matter if you’re winning or losing, but that misery loves company and people will do anything to bring you down. That you can laugh it off. That you don’t have to suffer in silence. That their opinion doesn’t matter. That YOU ARE NOT ALONE in this. Everyone is fighting their own battles.

95% of the thousands of people I deal with on the regular are amazing humans, hard working and just trying to build their own story. Kind and understanding I know I do my absolute best, however sometimes that isn’t enough. I’m only human and that’s ok.

Just don’t forget… you can’t reason with crazy, and there is no point in trying. Thank you all for being on this crazy journey with me, where as always, we share the good, bad, and ugly!

💥SOLD💥

🌹Rosie🌹
15yo QH Mare
Unreg and cannot be.
14.2 unmeasured

This is a very sad sale on behalf of a valued client. Rosie is a very loved mare that has has helped gain the confidence of a beginner rider who is now ready to step up.

Rosie has been there and done that, everything from PC to jumping to cow work. She has been mainly used for barrel racing this last year and her owners would love to see her go on to a home that is more whoa than go. She is a forward moving mare and has excelled under instruction, but probably wouldn’t be suitable for a very beginner without help as she is very smart. Shes easy to do everything with and has no bad habits.

She has been willing to go and do everything and would excel at being that confident trail mount or ranch horse that can be pulled out of the paddock once in a blue moon and be just the same as if it was everyday.

Inspections and vet checks are always welcome by appointment.

Why is it that the horse is always too much horse?

How come it’s never that the rider is not enough rider? 🤔

05/04/2024

And then there was one…

I’m not kidding when I say they’re little rippers, such good pups and so smart.

All pups left here and settled into their new homes like they were old trained dogs.

One little tri colour stumpy tailed boy left…❤️

ETA: they have all found the best homes. ❤️❤️❤️

04/04/2024

These 2 little rippers are still looking for a new 🏡!

Call me a sook, but I believe any animal that served a purpose for us deserves the very best end of life they could possibly have.

The best vet clinics offer chocolate to dogs before they are PTS just so they have the chance to taste it for the very first and last time.

Daph has served people and kids for nearly her whole life, I believe she’s 25 this year? She had a polocrosse career before finally maturing in her mid teens to become a kids horse. 😂 She was the best damn kids horse I have ever seen. She was giving lessons up until this last month to some very special children that love her very much.

However, we have seen a significant decline in the old girl in the last month and afraid her time is coming. So, from here until the end she’s allowed to do whatever and go where ever she pleases. She spends lots of time in the hay shed and I am happy to clean up after her when she’s finished..if she wants dinner after breakfast, well then that’s how it’s going to be…

She owes us nothing and we owe her everything and if it becomes too hard we will send her off better than worse as she only deserves the very best days up until the very last one. ❤️🌈

Since we’re having withdrawals from staying home this weekend, here’s RGB’s run from Brymaroo running an 88. 👌🏻❤️

17/03/2024

Now this is a framer I believe. 🥰
Last week his prep for the draft was picking up Deklan from the bus stop,and then on the weekend he ran a massive 88 in his 3rd ever draft. He has now finalled in every draft so far.
A horse like Roger is priceless and this is why his name is Roger Good Boy! ❤️❤️

Obligatory weekend photo post.

It was a big weekend at the Bell Show, there wasn’t much we didn’t do from showing ponies and thoroughbreds to challenging and drafting.

It was a whole lot of work and far more fun.

Some of the highlights included:

Sylvester: Supreme Champion TB and Res Supreme Hack

Poppy: 2nd Show Pony NE 12 HH
3rd Welsh Section A Filly

Roggie Good Boy: 4th Overall in the Open Challenge
4th in the Wet Work running an 85.

Phillip: Equal 3rd in the Challenge Wet Work running an 86.
Continuing with consistency from Cooyar, running a massive 88 in the Maiden to make the finals again.
Tremendous effort for a 4yo in his second official draft.

Manny: helped pilot Kendal through her first ever course. ❤️

Thanks so much for Mary Lou Emmert for the photos. 📸

27/02/2024

I believe these are the two remaining 💙.
The stumpy will be broken coated and the long tail will have a shorter coat.

PM for more info please!

We’re going to try and find some new 🏡 for these gorgeous chonky nuggets before we get too attached this time…we can’t keep anymore. 🫣🥴

Three of the 💙 are stumpy tails and the 🩷is a long tail.

Unsure of coats yet but last litter had one of everything. Parents are both broken coats.

Thank you to everyone that came to the clinic this weekend. Despite the heat and the bit of rain we had Sunday, we all still had a blast.
Thank you to Mick and Michelle at the Kulpi Pub for donating the fresh cattle and hosting an awesome Saturday night!
I intended to get a photo of everyone with their hats Sunday but the rain had different ideas…🙄
I meant to get more photos and vids but it just didn’t happen.
Also, true to our word, everyone who attended receives a puppy as Chili waited until it was all over to have her pups…I will be in touch when they are ready! 😜
Looking forward to seeing you bunch again soon!

18/01/2024

Due to the unexpected weather events in the last 24 hours, we regret to inform everyone that we will have to postpone the clinic. Please check your emails for further info!

Not the favourite…🫣🥰

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🎄🎅🏼 Hope your year is like a paddock full of good horses… ❤️

This gem from a year ago is worthy of a reshare… Imagine bringing your horse home from the horse trainer and saddling this for the first time. 🫣

OFF THE MARKET 🎤Elvis 🎤 14.1 HH 6YO Welsh X (Unreg/exact breeding unknown) Black Gelding We’ve had Elvis approximately 2 years I believe this past September. We bought him and started him and he’s been slow going over the last few years. He was just bushed the last 9 months and just brought back in last week. I feel now he’s finally in a place where he can be moved onto someone that can point him in whatever direction they please. However, that is probably a very specific person that would be suitable for him. He needs someone that has great feel for a sensitive horse. The best way to describe him as that he has big feelings. I am happy to elaborate fully for the serious buyer. Elvis would not suit: -children -beginners -someone wanting to start riding after any sort of hiatus. -someone who will 💩 their pants if he has a buck after having time off. -someone who doesn’t understand what a green horse is. If you ask me if he can buck then this means you… -furthermore, someone who doesn’t understand how much consistency a green horse like him needs. -someone that doesn’t understand that probably every situation he’s in after he leaves here is probably a first for him (the definition of a green horse). -someone who is not confident in all aspects. I will not sell him to just anyone, we will keep poking along with him if needed. However, I feel that he could make an excellent project for the right person; he’s a beautiful mover, not to mention just gorgeous to look at. He’s located in Rosalie Plains, Q. 💰= 6️⃣,6️⃣0️⃣0️⃣

Thanks to Maddi Smith MS Photography for getting this footage from the Darling Downs Branch Stock Horse Challenge and Draft. A very successful first branch out into the challenge world again! ⭐️

Top hand and his best horse when he was just 3 ….😄❤️

I guess there was a reason we never threw in the towel on Ironman. Jaz has been coming for lessons the last few months and has been super dedicated to learning all aspects of horses and training. So we thought she was the perfect handy kid to continue to work with Ironman. It certainly helps that she has the amount of feel a real horseman needs, the kind that you can’t teach someone. We’ve had Ironman for a year now, he rides decently with Grant but he has a real mental block most days. He’s not been at an acceptable stage to continue training as he’s not receptive to what you’re trying to teach him. Anymore pressure and you would just flood him. So Jaz has taken over and spent nearly all day everyday just spending time with him and today was day one for her in the round yard. She’s already knocked down so many walls and built the trust we’ve been trying to work on. It’s the type of thing that just needs time, time we don’t always have. It’s been double the learning at the moment as Jaz has gotten to watch the first babies being started and getting to apply what she’s been watching. She is keen for knowledge and works hard to get it right. I can’t wait to see where we go from here and it’s been a lot of fun to coach from the sidelines as needed but let the both of them figure it out together.
