Meet Tucker~
8yr old 15hand dun gelding .... holy smokes HE'S A BEAUTY! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ Finished ranch horse, been used to gather and sort cattle, drag calves to fire, check gates, been roped off, rode trails, gravel roads, in the arena etc. Been to the obstacle course, toted a few confident teen riders around, dabbled in some gaming etc. Tucker is no dead head he enjoys having a job and a soft handed confident rider. The bond is important to him, he wouldn't be his happiest in a lesson type setting. Rides in a snaffle, has some buttons. In on consignment due to a messy family situation ending in divorce and family needing to relocate & list all horses.

Tucker is a quiet fella, acts shy at first then once he knows you he's a LOVER boy โค๏ธ loves all the scratches and treats he can get! Loves his grain, can be stall or pasture board he doesn't mind either, easy to tack up, stands at the mounting block or walk him up to anything nearby and hop on. Mid pecking order. Has a long flowing mane and tail๐Ÿฅฐ Tucker had never been lunged before coming to NCT but learned how in about ten minutes. He really gives his all for his people. Enjoys having a job but doesn't need to be worked daily, has sat for several weeks before then rode right off without missing a beat. ๐Ÿ‘ŒTucker gets along really good w/ Sky a mare we have listed, they've become besties, he does however turn out well with both mares and geldings. Respects all types of fencing. Loads and trailers quietly. Maintains weight easily. Winters well. Barefoot.

BINGO!!!! ๐Ÿ‘Œ We dont normally share memes; sayings and what not directly to the page but this one deserves a SHARE! Read it and read it again! โœŒ๏ธ Couldn't be more accurate! I have seen this happen time and time again, horses aren't always the same with all handlers. There's many that'll out smart you, get away with anything and everything, walk all over you if you let them, wait until you've put in the work to earn their trust and respect, and some that just flat out dont like you, ain't happy with you, your lack of education, your lack of consistency, your lack of confidence, their current training, handlers, job, feed, turn out schedule etc. Could be a number of things under the sun but with a change of hands they are a completely different horse!

Murphy update picsโค๏ธ โค๏ธ Thank you for entrusting NCT to find your daughter the perfect horse!! Love these pics so much, they look so happy together! โค๏ธ

I want to use this as a bit of an educational post as well... Yes Murphy is a young Thoroughbred (why does that matter) his heart is gold and temperament is top notch! Don't look past a good horse based off of stigma about a breed. I say this because many people do judge horses based off of lack of education; experience; what they were told or that one bad experience and it's often times that those same people miss out on good solid horses because of it! Breed doesn't determine if the horse is safe, reliable, sound, will be a good addition for the whole family etc. Nor does having been at the track mean that the horse must be hot and want to run run run that is FALSE! We have some Thoroughbreds recently having left the track that want nothing more then to eat treats, tote kids around and get butt pats. ๐ŸคฃEach individual horse is different. There are hot, crazy, spicy, problematic, laid back, and sweet horses of all breeds! Remember this if you are looking for a new addition, keep an open mind๐Ÿซถ

Meet Sky~
6yr old 15hand SUPER PRETTY paint mare with a long multi colored barbie doll mane. ๐Ÿ˜ Sign me up this girls dreamy!!! Broke wtc, has excellent brakes, will let you mount from literally anything a rock; bumper; log; fence; gate; the ground; step stool etc. One hand neck reins, point and go, never spicy, lunges but doesn't need to be lunged by any means prior to riding, just tack her up and go! This mare is honest broke and solid! Great size for just about anyone! Knows some verbal cues and enjoys liberty work! Enjoys our obstacle course and is brave to go ride at new places and try new things! Will ride out alone or in a group!

This girl sure is easy to look at, WOW!โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ Barefoot, kind, eyed, nice and shapy, and a real easy keeper! Loves kids, has personality, not marish, in your pocket! โค๏ธโค๏ธ Takes up some leg and is a smooth one to ride. Been rode all over the trails, used on the ranch, at the feedlot, been out on the cows, in the arena & out, play days, rode double, ponied others, rode state trails, through all sorts of terrain etc. Turns out easily with others- mares, geldings, weanlings, donkeys. She is mid pecking order and there is not a mean bone in her body. Sky is easy to catch, stands perfect for the farrier, stands tied anywhere, tacks up, loads and trailers like a pro, can be pasture or stall board. Been rode mostly western but has been rode recently english as well.

Take her whichever way your heart desires, she's at the prime of her life! Level headed, and willing! We think she'd love to have a person of her own! Sky would be a wonderful 4h horse, all around family mount, fabulous addition to a lesson program, kids gaming horse or trail riding partner! Would make a nice jumper, has a beautiful + floaty extended trot, we adore this SWEET mare! ๐Ÿ’– She's dreamhorse material, the real deal! ๐Ÿฆ„
If you can get on a horse and hold reins you can ride her!

Meet Babs~ ***UPDATED 3/18
6yr old BEAUTIFUL bay mare w/ chrome galore, super duper classy, a really nice mover that stands out, and bred extremely well!! Standing at 16.3hands. This doll has an incredible temperament that doesn't disappoint, she wants to be your best friend, and has no marish behaviors! Can turn her out with anyone!
She has really pretty unique markings on her front right leg (see attached pic, looks like barring). Throughout the last several months with us she has really filled out nicely, is big bodied, and maintains weight through all seasons of the year. Grows a great winter coat, not sensitive skinned, and is a true easy keeper!

Babs has no vices. Shes truly wonderful to have at the barn, no issues ever! Stall or pasture board she doesn't mind either. No maintenance. Barefoot. No limitations. Big fancy mover that can cover some serious ground if asked! No lunging needed just tack up and ride off! Super broke mare, one hand neck reins, stands at the mounting block and brings you back at the end of the ride. Babs is a really friendly and sweet horse, she wants to be friends with everything that moves. She ties, trailers quiet, stands perfect for the farrier. This is a fun mare to be around and ride, lopes right off, real smooth horse! She is fun for a professional rider but could also work for an amateur that has some confidence or someone nearby to give pointers if needed!

๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ“ขDressage peeps, jumpers, eventers -HERE IS YOUR GIRL!!!! Her extended trot is to die for!!๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ Babs definitely enjoys trail riding, she's been on quite a bit of hacks off property, rode out with dogs next to her, point and go alone or in a group, rides in the arena, been to a hunter course several times now for the experience and she sure didnt act like it was her first time their! Been rode down the gravel roads to the range, trotted poles, popped over crossrails, logs, carried the flag, seen & heard a whole lot of things that spook many horses but she didn't pay no mind to it one bit. Babs has been rode at a few state parks, been to bonfires, handled by youth, rode by several teens, had a few younger kiddos on her in the arena and she was perfect! No silly business ever! This mare has had EXCELLENT training throughout her life and it shows! She acts much older then she is and rides like she's atleast 10!

Babs has a BEAUTIFUL ๐Ÿ˜ free jump w/ obvious potential for her to go upper level. She has been game to do everything we ask of her and is an easy going mare that is eager to please! She'd be a DREAMHORSE for a youth rider that needs a step up mount, horse for high school rodeo, college, gaming etc. She does no wrong and is reliable! Babs has had a TON of desensitization work done w/her, she enjoys liberty, and learned how to lung in minutes! ๐Ÿ˜ Top notch, she's quiet, willing, low to mid in the pecking order but not the way bottom, respects all fencing, looks forward to training each day and is ready at the gate. โ™ฅ๏ธ Lover for attention, nose kisses, neck pats, peppermints, and grain. Currently a babysitter to a few of our weanling fillys and is very good to them! Has ponied a few of them around before.

Extremely well bred + CLASSY mare๐Ÿ™Œ Sired by Mastery a multiple graded stakes winner of over half a million๐Ÿ˜ฎ He is an own son of Candy Ride who is one of the top five active studs with stud fees of 75k!! WOWZER!!! Her dam Rum Go is a graded stakes placed mare with earnings herself and is an own daughter of a legendary sire named Mizzen Mast ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ who also has earnings of over half a million!!๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ Other highly favorable bloodlines in Babs pedigree include.. Blushing Groom, Cryptoclearance, AP Indy, Caro, and Speighstown. This mare checks off the boxes and many more!!! Whoever gets her will be head over heels!!๐Ÿฅฐ Mark. My. Words.

๐Ÿšซ ๐Ÿšซ ๐Ÿšซ ๐Ÿšซ ATTENTION ๐Ÿšซ ๐Ÿšซ ๐Ÿšซ ๐Ÿšซ
We have received a few dozen messages about this mare sitting in an Oklahoma k.p. with her days numbered. She needs a chance. She deserves to know love and what the good life feels like. She has been starved and neglected and we are told is in POOR condition.๐Ÿ’” She however through everything appears to have the absolute sweetest demeanor. Clearly she needs alot of TLC, vetting, on a refeed program etc. That is what we can see Im sure there's a ton of additional needs there always is with rescues. It would appear that someone used her for breeding once upon a time until she became worthless to them. No idea if she is broke or what her future may consist of... first priority is to to save her and second to get her healthy. We are not a non-profit everything is out of pocket. To help her we need to raise some funds, if anyone is interested in helping save this mare we have called around and have a way to get her out of the pen and moved to quarantine middle of this week. Or if you yourself are able to bail her and help her please do so and fast! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™ My plate is currently over flowing but after a couple dozen messages I couldn't just forget and move on I have to try to help her.
