Congratulations are in order at SBK dressage! Barbara and Arlo earned their final score for their USDF bronze medal 🥉 at the show this weekend! Very proud of you both and how far you’ve come!

Thank you to The Chronical of the Horse for featuring our boy Nutter Butter!

One evening in May 2021, Southern California-based show jumper Tiffany Sullivan was enjoying some Nutter Butter cookies and scrolling online when the sales photo of a petite skewbald Paint caught her attention. The low-end Texas auction house where the gelding was located is notorious for being a fi...

We also spent some time WEC! The biggest suprise for me was not the world class facilities but the toy store! They are definitely giving some FAO Schwarz vibes!

Quick trip to Florida! We had a great time and looking forward to coming back again next season to see more! It is always fun to check in with friends on their equine adventures. This was a former client horse that I got to meet for the first time!

National day of the Arabian horse! We welcome all breeds at SBK dressage but I have a soft spot for Arabians! Cp Witching Hour, also known as Princess Stella, is a wonderfully kind horse and I look forward to every day with her.

Best comment I have seen on test to date was earned by the one and only Nutter Butter and Sydney at El Sueno this weekend. From the judge at A, “Wonderful small horse. Seems to enjoy dressage. Keep improving forward and geometry of circles and have fun with this nice horse!”

We are here to tell you dressage is for everyone. You can ride a rescue. You can learn at every level and all horses deserve to shine and tell their story!

FOR LEASE WINTERLAKE XHANIA

13 year old Welsh cob cross dressage show pony looking for a dance partner for the 2024 show season! Sweetpea is currently schooling all of second level and ready to go show. She has been shown successfully through first level and really enjoyed the freestyle class.

Sweetpea’s ideal match wants to go and show. She requires a confident rider and would be great for a young rider or adult in a training program. She also loves to cross train over cavalletti and poles so if you would like to do some jumping, I am certain she would enjoy the challenge.

Available on or offsite to perfect match.

Video is from her freestyle:

Two years ago today I used this photo to announce SBK dressage was open for lessons and Nutter was available for an on site half lease! I will be forever grateful to this little rescue horse. He is the world’s most unlikely and best business partner. He has helped rider after rider gain their confidence, work on there position, learn how to navigate the dressage court and circle, ride with no hands, take a lunge lesson, hack around ba****ck, go down centerline, enter their first show and in general sees through every person who has come our way, let’s me know what they need and patiently gives them an opportunity to grow.

I would love to hear your Nutter Butter stories! Please share a photo, tag us and use the hashtag

Don’t have a Nutter story? Tell us about the horse that got you into the sport!
