Happy Father's Day to our horse show dads (and grandpas)! We couldn't do it without you!

In honor of Dad's everywhere, here's some equine dad jokes:

1. How does a moon clip a horse? He eclipse it.
2. What did one feed pan say to another? Dinner is on me
3. What's brown and sticky? A stick

💥💥Leased before Listed!!💥💥

So excited for this guy to go to a great show home for the summer! Have fun in St. Louis! Can't wait to hear about all the lives you're about to change and young riders you will teach!

Great show this weekend with lots of good greenies!!

Rosa and Chloe got some good ribbons (and even a blue!) in all their classes, with some decent competition! Way to overcome some 'first show of the year' nerves! Chloe and Rosa ended up RESERVE champs of their division

Crioa stepped into the show ring for the very first time and proved to be a bold, brave partner and she even remembered some of those pesky lead changes. We started with reserve champion 2ft jumpers division and tested the waters of the "big girl heights" in 2'6" land. Crioa stepped right up to the height with no problem. Very proud by how well she handled herself and the difficult questions asked.

As always, a GREAT crew, with a family-fun show hosted by Wildflower Schooling Show Series in Rochester. Lots of flexible options for greenies and affordable, safe options for beginner riders. We will see you next time!

Congrats to all who showed!

Good luck to Crioa and Rosa. Kingsley and Dracaena get to come along this weekend for their first show experience!

Another new boy!

Cato is a 16.3 2013 TB with show experience in 2'6" land. He is a big goofy boy with soft eyes. He is excited to teach intermediate riders the concept of collection and leg to hand guidance. He's taught his previous owner the ropes of the jumper and eq ring. Keep an eye out for this handsome big guy in a show ring near you 🥰

Very excited that these two are going to a great home! We will miss them, but we are so excited for their futures in Iowa!

💥💥LEASED💥💥

Listed reluctantly for sale, but highly encourage a lease:

Ducky,
2015 gelding. 16.1 and THICK.


Ducky does best in a program. (3 rides a week is perf!) And he needs a kind, confident rider to continue to bring him along.

Ducky gives 150% into everything he does (even when it only requires 75% effort). Ducky is a forward thinking guy with no naughty behavior.

He w/t/c both ways and has a simple change. He moves off the leg well and has lateral moves. The worlds BEST sitting trot.

FUN FACT: previous to his 2 years of hunter training, Ducky did the western gig and learned to neck rein. Over courses, he will land leads if you "neck rein" just a bit in the air over fences!

Occasionally, Ducky shows some anxiety under saddle, when this happens he just needs a calm and confident rider to show him the right answer. Then he remembers it and is a good boy. Not a single mean bone in this one.

He does NOT need a firm hand... it's how he got his confidence ripped away to begin with.

Limited to the 2'6", and requires some maintenence.

And oh so handsome and full of fun-loving personality.

Does all the stuff- clips,loads, bathes. Grooms and tacks easily. Stands quietly at the mounting block.

Has local show experience.

He would love a low level jumping job, dressage job or a very handsome trail horse. He may even take a spin at a barrel career!

Located in Fort Wayne, IN
To keep forever, mid 4s starting with a 5
To borrow for a year, low 4s starting with 2

***SOLD***

Brave Hilario "Lars"
Lars is a 16.1+ hand gelding who is going to be big bodied. Soon to be 5 yr old. Digital papers in hand. Super super sweet. Easy ammy friendly. Rrp eligible. Well bred! NO storm cat, but includes Seattle Slew!

NO maintenence, Barefoot with great feet. No limitations. Clean legs! (He's just really fuzzy right now!)

So easy to be around, did i mention a 12 yr old lesson student leads him around with a rope?

Lars stood in the crossties for over an hour getting his wild mane braided over while huskies ran up and down the isle.

While Lars is still curious and playful for his age, he is never disrespectful or pushy to any human and never damaging to property .

Loves his turnout time and wants a playful buddy. Turned out in a mixed herd and does fine.

Lunges w/t/c both directions and started over trot poles. not sat on yet. Quick learner. But will need someone to clearly explain his next career. He's the type that once he's clear on the expectation, he gets it.

Have jogs and small lunge video. Absolutely great "whoa" on this guy. You can totally tell why he didn't make it on the track.

Asking 3.5k OBO before he goes under saddle next week.

Ducky has knees to nose figured out!

We think Ducky is so handsome! He's getting all glamorous for his sales/lease photo shoot!
