Welcome to Hidewood Horses!
Has anyone told you how well Albert is doing?! No?! Silly me 🤣 Albert has officially had some outside, cow exposing rides in big country. After he realized that being rode wasn't so bad, he's really become quite adventurous! Becca and Kayla had him out being ponied the other day and he was the first one in the water - woohoo! We're really excited to show him off here in a few short weeks at the Dakota Showdown!

Albert 😎
Riot ❤️
We've had a pretty successful last couple of weeks! Kenny got his first ride, Sq**rt is laying down like a pro and did very well on his first ride, Albert is also really making progress on the ground. Max is a welcome back gal from last year, she showed up a little amped, but she got a reality check and is showing she remembers her training well from last year! And Riot gets to be out working cows and going on casual rides!
This is Sq**rt
General and Lu brought another beautiful little bay roan filly into the world this morning! She has very similar markings to Dakota (her full sister from last year) - and she is allllllll legs!! Mama Lu and baby are doing wonderfully!
We've been off to a great start so far this training season. We've got Snickers, Albert, Doc, Fin, Riot and, getting two tomorrow!
Snickers has proven to be extremely independent and if she's not being a pill during warm up, warming her up gets her hot 🤣 she has beautiful moves though!
Albert is extremely gentle, but has definitely found his energy now that he's put on a little weight. He's extremely smart, very friendly, not spooked by much of anything. Dakota Showdown is in for a treat with this guy.
Doc is a BA dude. He's got a real nice handle on him, comes off like he'd like to dump ya, but he's been the best ride yet.
Fin is a complete powerhouse. We've had to do some changes with saddle fit, but now that we've got it down, hold on to your hats boys and girls. He's been learning how to ride out alone because Tim learned that he's buddy sour - whether he's known a horse for a minute, a day, or a lifetime he wasn't a fan of getting ridden away from. He's doing very well in his progress!
Riot.....well.....he's not what you'd think judging by that name! Guns, dogs, kids, horses, cats, fireworks, new riders, new experiences, you name it, this horse couldn't give two sh*ts less 🤣 he's always a fun one to have (returning friend from last year). His mama plans to do mounted shooting with him and he, of course, is posing zero concerns there!
Big things are happening this year! I'd like to give a huge thank you to a special client, that has become a friend, for encouraging me to apply! My family and I are extremely excited for this blessed opportunity!
Check out this looker!!! Sunny is a bucskin roan weanling filly that has brains, braun, personality, and moves! Dam is HW Lightning Lady and has parentage back to Colonel Freckles and Doc Bar. Sire is BVH General Hancock who is 42% Blue Valentine and has offspring kicking ass in all aspects of riding. Registration is in process, just waiting to receive the papers. Located near Clear Lake, SD asking two oh oh oh

It was a very bittersweet day here at Hidewood Horses, but we are very grateful to say that our second born foal this year went to a very nice family to surprise her new best friend for her first birthday as a teenager! Thank you so much for your business! Tim can't wait to get her back for training as a two year old! It will be awesome to see her potential as a barrel horse 🛢
"Baby Lou" is too sweet for words, she rocks the party hat and streamer necklace!
Just want to give a huge thank you to all of my clients this year! My season has come to a close early due to a major back surgery, but rest assured, I'll be back for 2025! My gratitude runs deep for the experiences, but more importantly to those who spread the word about my work. I appreciate you all!
Three year old stud, he catches on quickly and is very smart! The first ride was outside on big country getting exposure to cows right off the bat. He's a cool dude!
The girls sure are growing!
Splash, the paint curly, had his first outside ride on Saturday! Shooter, the big bay, had a traumatic incident when a young rider fell over the right side so he's getting some self confidence back and getting out on some cows again. Seven, the little black gelding, was saddled for the first time on Saturday as well. He is learning self confidence and that not every object is trying to kill him.
The first HW registered broodmare and the stallion himself, The General, are branded! Both horses did a fantastic job! BVH General Hancock
Took Splash out for a stroll yesterday, it's nice to get them exposed to new things!
Some of last year's fun
Check out what we've been up to so far this year
Check out the papers on this little bay roan filly! She's built for speed
General's Hidewood foal crop brought us another filly and this girl is BEAUTIFUL! Already roan, a little bit of chrome and legs for days!
This sweet little bay roan will be appendix bred, mom is a money earner off the track thoroughbred 🔥
We wish all you mamas out there a Happy Mother's Day!
Miss Sunny is finding her wheels! She sure is a spunky little filly!
And today is Ellie's birthday too!
The man behind the babies. Reach out if you want pictures of foals, some will be listed in the comments!
First horse in training for the season 😎 looking forward to a good year!
"Sunny" is such a doll! The oldest boy has sure loved lovin on her too! She likes to nuzzle "mom's" face and nibble on her nose. We really couldn't be more in love ❤️
Ellie is such a good, proud mama and she looks like a veteran even though it's foal number one.
The very first Hidewood foal has joined the world 😍 Ellie is doing wonderfully, baby is healthy, and goodness, this filly is BEAUTIFUL!!!
