Looking for a big ranch horse that still has some miles in him?

Haste Senters Sunday, Roany, is a 2005 big red roan QH. We’ve been giving him a tune-up after a couple years off and he is ready for a job.

Roany is great for the farrier, friendly to be around, and built like a brick! We’ve taken him down the trail and worked him in the arena. We’ve thrown ropes and dragged objects, but haven’t had a chance to put him on live cattle yet. We’re hoping to do that tomorrow.

Roany can be barn sour and needs his rider to be confident. He works much better in spurs than without. He’s soft in the face and has a great backup. I’m still refreshing some buttons, but do have him side passing and moving off leg pressure. He covers ground with his walk!

There’s nothing like having a fantastic trail ride on a training horse. She’s such a fun little mare and has become a solid girl on the trail!

I guess Henna didn’t want to go to Vegas either. We’re currently dealing with colic. Send healing energy or prayers please!

Update: She finally agreed to drink some water. After that and a bit of banamine, she ate some salty mash and had a nice big drink. I think we’re in good shape.

I’m sad to announce that we will not be attending the Mustang Challenge in Vegas with Henna. She is doing fantastic and we are excited to watch the solid horse she is becoming. However, we have decided we need to focus on training and rehoming other Mustangs and horses in out program. Vegas is a big show and big expense, and we are just hot quite ready for that.

Stay tuned for information on our mustangs that will be availablee this month!

If your weekend plans smell like hay, involve a little dirt, and occasionally require duct tape, you’re in the right place. The Barn Soul collection is made for riders who know that horses are more than a hobby—they're a lifestyle, a therapist, and a never-ending source of humble pie. From inspi...

We have a very nice and well-trained mare looking for a job. She is not a beginners horse as she is quick and sensitive. Abby has worked cows on the ranch, roped in the pasture, and was used in the feedlot. She’s very light to handle, moves off your seat, and has quite a few buttons. She loves going out on the trails and is not spooky. I could see her doing endurance, working on a ranch, or being an OHSET or 4-H horse for a handy kid who is serious. She is also very personable and enjoys attention.

I took her to Still Prineville and she camped great. Zero issues hauling and being on a high tie. We were just doing the trail with friends, but boy can she walk out and her trot is smooth.

Abby is 12yo and 15 hands with nice feet and a stout build.

Woohoo! Working on the tack room today! Check out the new insulated pegboard wall
