Anybody we know want one of the cutest, most biggest oversized pony to stuff in a stocking, put under the tree, or drag one in from the forest for you?

Bingo is back home in Amherst, VA and available to make someone’s Christmas and New Year extra bright with his fabulous white eyelashes and “sharp dressed” appearance!

Get in touch if you do! They only make one of these, and we’ve got him 🤠💕🦄💫🎄🎅🎉

Lia and Devyn put in the work 💪 this morning to resolve a few sticking points. We will work with Lia tomorrow and Devyn will be continuing the rest of the week.

Clear, consistent and confident communication is the goal in the horse and rider relationship. Horses are always asking questions about boundaries and expectations. When wires cross or they don’t give us the answers we seek undersaddle, we take it back to the basics on the ground. This can clear up any confusions and result in a far more productive and pleasant experience.

Lia and Devyn did great! It was fun to see such an accomplished pair learn brand new skills and apply them successfully. We are excited to see them continue to develop and shift from the traditional approach - perhaps even some trick training could be in their future! What a lovely pair and a top quality mare! We are grateful for the opportunity to work with them both.

Hunting with Oak Ridge Fox Hunt Club at the Oak Ridge Estate yesterday. What a beautiful day!

Roy was a 💫 tried and true, steady and smooth. What a truly lovely horse he is. We have a few conversations going on him, but if they do not produce we will be officially listing him this week. He’s ready to find his person. Will certainly be able to hunt all flights and we believe could make a great staff horses as well.🦄

Mac…still a child, was a good boy but thought it could get exciting and busted out some 🐬porpoise like maneuvers to demonstrate his desire to move out - after some laughter and one correction he got the message and hunted like a prince the rest of the time. Not bad for his 6th time out. These young horses are always asking us questions - just gotta be ready with the right answers!

The unmatched Bingo has blossomed into a remarkable Hunt Horse who stands out and shines brightly even in the most superior company (Middleburg, Piedmont, Snickerville, and more). Photos from Piedmont Opening Hunt. Many references available.

He is officially available for ⛵️ or possibly lease in 2025 after his current lease ends. We will be highly selective as he is an increadible being and we care about him deeply. We have owned Bingo for 3 years, he is a treasure, truly one in a million.

Excited to be featured today in our local paper! 🤠🤠🦄🦄💕💫

On an October afternoon, Meredith Newman and Kallie Hailine were in their scenic element enjoying a ride at Line Pine Hill LLC, the equestrian facility and horse stable they operate on about 250 acres just outside the town of Amherst. Each learned to ride horses as a little girl and that shared pass...

Congratulations to two of our boarders, Katherine and Devyn, who went head to head on the flat in yesterday’s National Collegiate Equestrian Association (NCEA) showdown between Sweet Briar Riding and Lynchburg Equestrian Team. Devyn, riding for the Hornets, posted an 82 to edge out Katherine’s 81 for the Vixens.

What a fantastic display of sportsmanship from these two! Rivalry stokes great competition, but a true team player can leave it all on the field/in the arena, and graciously meet their opponent with congratulations and smiles. A fantastic job by both, and wonderful for their families to meet and enjoy each other’s company! Meredith made it just in time to catch the second half of the flat and snag a picture!

Congrats to both teams, what a great competition! Way to go University of Lynchburg who secured the win 7-3!

If you have any questions about collegiate riding feel free to reach out. Meredith competed in IHSA and ANRC for Sweet Briar College while also playing lacrosse all 4 years and coached NCAA lax for 12 years. Kallie Hainline was a
riding instructor at Sweet Briar for 4 years and has a number of contacts at other colleges equestrian opportunities. Our current equestrian collegiate athletes can also speak to their experience, as well as those who ride, but not for the team(s).

If you’re interested in riding at one of the local colleges (Sweet Briar, Lynchburg, Liberty) but want to keep your horse separately, consider us! We’re in the town of Amherst Virginia and in close proximity. About half of our boarders are college students and some send us their horses for summer break to keep in condition whilst they are away. Though, don’t delay! As of now we are full, but may have an opening next fall for an incoming student and their horse.

We’ve ALL been enjoying this goregous weather! What a week! Lots of lessons, trail rides, first rides, sunsets, and an incredible client/new friends visit to cap it off this evening! Can’t wait to see what next week will bring! October is in full effect and we couldn’t be in a more joyous place 💫💕🦄🤠⭐️

Excited to be “back at the office!”

The arena drug amazingly this morning! Caught a cute moment between two muddy buddies after feeding, and already have a few horses worked.

The new consignment horse was fab for his first ride after arriving 1 week ago and managed great through the rain events. “Lil W***y” is back in action and started kindergarten today, working toward saddling and intermediate groundwork.

Yesterday, we hauled a horse to NoVa and swung through Middleburg just in the nick of time to grab a bundle of hunt attire and tack from the Middleburg Tack Exchange. We’re set to take this season with the Bedford County Hunt - Bedford, Virginia and the Oak Ridge Fox Hunt Club by storm!

We’re so grateful for the 10+” rain, though ready for some sunshine. We also find ourselves humbled by the devastation many of our friends in NC have endured and have made our farm available for any refugies, humans and animals alike, should it be needed. Holding all impacted by the disasters in the light 🙏💫

William, the young pony prospect is nearing Day 30 and his graduation from preK. We are thrilled that his owner has signed on for another 30 days! W***y will be staring Kindergarten, and with as quick a learner he is, he may even start elementry school!

We are so pleased with his progress and for the opportunity to break into the pony business!

Keep an eye out if you’re looking for a large, he may be available. He’s going to be one cool dude!
