One of things we love about this property is sharing it with some super talented riders!

Sooo.. we have been very quiet on Facebook but that doesn’t mean nothing is happening 😉

After waiting for months and months we have finally been able to extend our stables..
little sneak preview below 😊

We finally had a day where the weather was nice enough for a little photo shoot 📷

Donny and Andy’s biggest win yet and a great finish to the season - Winner of the Preliminary Bronze Section of the South Canterbury Saddlery (Timaru) Rising Star League 🐴

A big thank you to everyone involved making this happen 🙏

Trying to make the most of the little sunshine we had today before the next round of rain 🌧

21/06/2023

We got some exciting new gear. It only took a bit over a year to design and decide on a logo but here we go.. NEW MERCHANDISE 🥰

18/06/2023

It’s definitely starting to look a bit like winter.. leaves are down, rain clouds come and go and mud is everywhere (even though you can’t see it in these pics) but the horses are happy 🐴
Thanks to Nina Mayard for the lovely photos 🥰

01/06/2023

We can relate. :D

Protocol day, local show and the AMDG Amateur Championship Show - we’ve been getting back out there. This is a wrap for Donny for the season. He did so well bringing the Preliminary Amateur Champ title back to Arran Stables 🎉

What a terrific product. Kiwi Arena Rake

Worked as expected and the results speak for themselves. :-)

01/05/2023

We’ve heard a lot about the Kiwi Arena Rake system and today ours finally arrived! We are super excited about this equipment that will no doubt keep our arena well dressed. (Once unwrapped and assembled, of course!) 😂

04/04/2023

Just a few saddles to dream about… 🥰

19/03/2023

With multiple shows cancelled we've been focussing on training. Sam & Andy finally both competed this weekend at the Dressage Waitemata two-day show after this little show break. The team did super well and brought home 6 wins and two championship titles 😀
Thanks Dressage Waitemata for a great show 🙏 Big thank you to all the judges and other helpers as well.

19/03/2023

It's been a little while since our last post. Thanks for everyone who checked on us 😀 We've been quite lucky with the flooding and the cyclone and only had some trees come down.. humans, horses, cats & dog, piggies all safe and happy and no damage to any buildings. The boys are still cutting all the fallen trees up and have been doing so for the last months buts we're getting there.

A few photos of Donny & Andy at our Christmas show 😄🐴

Merry Christmas to all of our Arran Stables friends :-)

Our Christmas show was a huge success and we would like to thank everyone who joined us on the day and all our amazing riders.

Some spring cleaning, weeding and planting today around the arena while wifey takes baby boy McFoody to Woodhill forest. Apparently some signs are super scary!

Also, sooo many beautiful horsie things to buy 😜
