HUGE Thank you to Tina & Kim Walker of Uptown Miniature Horses for their generous sponsorship of the WCMHC AMHR Reserve Grand Hi-Point Mare - Over award, won by our Homebred Yearling filly Amaretto Fashionably Late "Fashion"!!!!

This filly is special - She was born while we were at a Horse show - her dam Lady had to deliver her at Burwash Equine because Lady waited 400 DAYS to foal - we had spent MONTHS watching Lady -- and Mom and I were going to that damn horse show, rain or shine.. LOL Despite pleading with Lady, she refused to give up her cargo, and with no way to foal her out at a horse show she was sent to the vets and promptly foaled this LEGGY, crazy freaky necked filly 2 days into her clinic stay..

Uptown Miniatures is home to countless beautiful Hall of Fame & National Champion Miniature Horses & Shetland Ponies, based right out of Central Alberta!! Please check them out at their website https://www.uptownminiatures.com/ . They are also very close friends and "horse show family" of ours.

Thank you so much for your sponsorship Kim & Tina!

Sharing.. when we sent Sunny to Alliance Training Center Alba, Tx I gave them the heads up that he was hard to clip.. a few weeks later I get a video from Carey of him enjoying his face being clipped - no drugs. Just love and patience. Alliance puts a huge focus on respecting and honouring the horses. We love being part of Team Alliance ❤️

If you want to get in on the ground floor of your next Champion,
Take a look at Amaretto Simply the Best aka “Houston”
Houston will be our premiere show c**t next year and he is offered at a great price as a gelding, and a great stallion price for breeders. He will be in the ribbons at shows and in futurity.
For those who loved his nearly full brother Sunny, meet Houston. ❤️
He is perfectly marked, eager to show, has a crazy thin long hooky neck, perfect shoulder and impressive topline. His body is tight coupled on long refined legs. He is a stand out. Simply the Best ❤️

Breeding and aiming for an Arabian type teacup muzzle is really great (and ideal!) but it does make you have to do interesting tack choices down the road. 😂

Spaz (and Joy) both wear a teeny tiny 3 1/4” bit.

3 1/2” sizes are the norm for a Under 34” mini. Some of the older style under minis with bigger muzzles wear 3 3/4”, and 4”.

So anyways - it’s very very hard to find 3 1/4” bits , especially if you want them in a Myler. Luckily we have one with a low port which makes the horses very happy. This tiny bit (when it’s not being used) is stored in the house for safekeeping 😂

Pictured is the 3 1/4” EPB 32 HP Myler Mullen barrel on Spaz’s open bridle, with a 3 3/4” EPB 01 Myler Comfort Snaffle to compare . Both with copper inlay.

Monday musings ..

Our Story

Amaretto Miniature horses: Show Horses Producing Show Horses.

Our journey in the miniature horses began in 2009 with the purchase of our first 3 AMHA/AMHR registered mini’s! Since then we have fallen in love with showing our miniature horses in Canada & the United States. Our horses are AMHA/AMHR Under 34” and many are World Champions, Honor Roll Champions, Canadian All Stars or Hall of Fame horses. Our focus is on an Arabian style miniature horse with an enjoyable temperament and movement to spare.

We are a boutique miniature horse breeding program with under 10 horses. All of our horses must have a successful show history before they are bred. Each foal born on our farm is a result of many years of exhibiting, training and research on what would make the most complimentary cross.

If you are looking for your next exemplary show horse, send us an email and come visit our small herd here on our farm near Airdrie!
