Remembering Pollywog as a baby and loving Ribbit as a mommy. We did not know Ribbit was pregant when we bought her so Polly was a special surprise.

Steadmor Farms is ready to interview a trainer or 2. We are looking for someone to come to our farm to give a few of us lessons a couple of times a week. Students would range from 7 years old to, well, …I’m not telling my age.
We have a small group of people who would like to expand our knowledge of horses through better riding. We all have our own equines and are interested in dressage, jumping, riding better on the flat and if you have reigning or ranch riding experience, that would be great too since we all have multiple interests. Schooling at shows would be a BIG plus.
Candidates must be kind, punctual and be willing not only train us but our horses too if needed. Any trainer inquiring must have insurance and references.
Different level riders and horses so private lessons to start would be required. Group lessons may work later once the trainer knows everyone’s experience and riding level.
Our goal would be for said trainer to come to teach back to back lessons once, but probably twice a week.
PM me with details and we will make an appointment for an interview.
Pick for attention.

ISO- looking for 2 non gaited horses for friends. Both horses should have more whoa than go.
Non marish mares and polite geldings may apply. Color doesn’t matter but would prefer to find something a little more quarter horse like and quiet, quiet, quiet.
Both these horses will be forever horses so show me your special guys. Happy to sign a buy back or first right of refusal contract and willing to do a care contract or purchase outright. PPE (including drug testing) will be done.

Child’s horse- in search of a unicorn for a 10 year old girl. Child takes lessons and there will be a trainer to help. No buck, bite or bolt.
Horse must be saintly. Older is fine. Some maintenance is ok. this horse should be able to…

…Be brushed and tacked by the child. A parent will always be there to help. Able to be ridden in an indoor and out door ring at a walk, trot, canter. Able to be ridden on a trail or bridle path with or with out friends. This does not mean the child will be riding by herself but the horse must be sane enough to ride off in its own. This horse will be maintained at a full service barn and will spend half its day in a field with a herd and half in a matted stall with private paddock equipped with fly spray and fans. Ideally this horse is kind and forgiving and could even pop over some small jumps as the little girl improves but we do not expect it to be a world class jumper. This would likely be the kind of situation where a very loved horse finds a second career teaching it’s last child to ride. This horse will primarily go english.
Budget- low 5 digits $XX,###

Horse number 2- ISO family horse. Will be loved and adored as well. Must be able to WTC. Again, PPE will be done (including drug testing). Must be good on the trails and be ok with a little ring work from time to time. Newish horse people but they have a very supportive barn family and horse will be maintained as mentioned above. Full care barn. Again, a care contract or outright sale works. Happy to sign buy back or first right of refusal. Some maintenance is fine. Horse must be kind and not the kind to take advantage of newer riders and caregivers. Horse will be ridden western but does not need to have all the buttons. Mid 4 digits $X,###.

Show me what you’ve got.

Picture for attention.

What a perfect day to take a ride with my best friend.

Such a perfect day for a ride. We did a little on and off property riding and even found some little trails to poke around on.

When I think about her extraordinary talents in communication, I can’t help but think the removing of his shoes proves you only need to be observant to know what a friend might need, it doesn’t require words sometimes.

Most people have heard of Koko, the gorilla who could speak about 1000 words in Sign Language, and understand about 2000 in English. What most people don’t know, however, is that Koko was an avid Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood fan. When Fred Rogers took a trip out to meet Koko for his show, not only did she immediately wrap her arms around him and embrace him, she did what she’d always seen him do onscreen: she proceeded to take his shoes off.

After a year of leasing Daisy, Sidney finally felt that Daisy was ready for the world to see her so she made her ring debut at the Hunter Lane Show next door. Sidney guided her through (garnering placements every class) a very large, competitive division making us all very proud. We are excited to see them in the ring again soon.

Daisy is “Ever So Clever” and may be available for an on-site half lease to the right person.
Daisy is a 6 yr old, 16 hand, thoroughbred mare, jumping 2.3 with automatic lead changes and a great brain. She is easy to bathe & clip and will stand in cross ties all day long.

Daisy’s first time in a show ring. Thank you Sidney and A&N training for bringing this mare along so beautifully.

I felt like we had to really perform. Quality control was keeping their eyes on us.

Trying to get some work done but the horses felt the need to oversee the process.

Italian diver Enzo Maiorca, while diving in the sea of Syracuse, felt something hit him in the back. He turned around and saw a dolphin.

He understood that he was not playing, but expressing something.
The dolphin dived down and Enzo followed him.

At a depth of 12 meters, caught in a net, was another dolphin.
After managing to free him and his wife, when the two dolphins surfaced, they emitted an almost human cry (this is how Maiorca described it). Dolphins can be held underwater for up to 10 minutes and then drown. The captive dolphin was a female about to give birth.

The male surrounded her and stood in front of Enzo and touched his cheek (like a kiss), a gesture of gratitude. Enzo ended his speech with the words:

"Until man learns to respect and communicate with the animal world, he will never be able to know his true role on this earth."

Our Story

As horse owners, our goal is to provide the same outstanding care to every horse who calls Steadmor Farms home as we do to our own.

Our facility boasts an amazing indoor riding ring w/watering system which aids in keeping dust to a minimum and bright LED lights over the ring and in aisles. We also have a large outdoor ring with lighting. Two large wash stalls, one with H/C water and heat lamp. There is a lovely bridle path surrounding the property for leisurely rides.

The stalls are all 12 x 12 with attached private paddocks, stall fans, fly spray, mats, and heated water buckets in winter. Each boarder has a large (lockable) tack box with room for all your supplies and for 2 saddles. There are blanket racks on either side allowing you to keep up to two (2) blankets for your horse.

We have an amazing team of people who are passionate animal lovers and ensure our horses receive the best care. Horses are grained am/pm with high quality/well balanced barn feed and quality (tested-results available upon request) orchard hay for munching on while in their stalls. Owner supplied supplements are happily added to your horses grain at no additional charge. Our equines spend nights in during the cold winter months and nights out during the warm Virginia summers enjoying our large, well maintained fields. Included in your board is up to two (2) blanket changes (am/pm) during winter turnout and application of fly masks and/or owner provided fly spray in summer. We hold for the house farrier/vet for routine visits at no charge. You are welcome to bring your own farrier/vet and hold your own horse or we can for a fee. We have a lovely heated/cooled lounge with a shower and even a washer and dryer for smaller items (no blankets please). While we do expect you to clean up after yourselves when you make a mess and are proud to say we have one of the cleanest facilities anywhere thanks to our hard working staff and considerate boarders. We do not limit when you are able to visit your horse, with a key card, you can enter the gated property at any time, day or night.
