I hope everyone had a lovely Monday! I’ve been keeping something quiet the last few weeks as I wasn’t really sure if it would happen or not…BUT I will be working with the Dakota Showdown Horse Trainer Challenge again this summer for the fourth year in a row(also the 4th annual Showdown!) and this year I am partnered up with Whitney, a young mare that shows a lot of potential to be a phenomenal ranch/rope/rodeo horse! Myself and another local trainer will be headed to the rescue on May 3rd to pick up our horses so stay tuned for more updates to come once Whitney arrives and begins her training!

This Is why its important to get regular dental checks/maintenance on your horses! Even your youngsters!! This filly will be three in May and since I’ve had her I’ve noticed she’s been a little on the thinner side, which I chalked up to being wormed and a growth spurt, but when working her the other day I noticed a stench coming from her mouth. I had her scheduled to see the Equine Dentist anyways due to a retained cap on her front teeth. Today she seen the dentist and boy did we find a mess! Typical for a young horse, she had both wolf teeth which we removed, but she also retained several caps, or baby teeth. These teeth she should have lost between two and two and half but never did. Retained caps are sometimes more common than a person would think! These caps were allowing food to pack between them and the permanent tooth which was causing the horrible stench in her mouth. This girl has a few more caps still to loose so she will be rechecked in a few months to make sure she loses them like she should!

Huge thank you to Carol Ashley with Grin and Mare It Equine Dentistry for her amazing work keeping all my horses teeth in tip top shape! Carol makes frequent trips to my place if any clients would like their horses done when they are here!

Rainy days call for time spent at the indoor!❤️

Let’s talk available horses! We’ve got a couple right now with a couple more coming in soon!

First up is this 2022 Bay gelding we call “Bernie”. Bernie comes from Sunrise H Quarter Horses out of Karlsruhe, ND. This is a recent partnership and I look forward to working more with Kelly and her husband!

Bernie is coming along well in his training, lunges and ground drives nicely and has had a handful of rides. He is quiet and easy going and a fun one to be around with a lot of personality. He picks up on new things fast and retains information well. With where he is currently I feel like he could excel in the barrel pen or even on the roping side of things in the future. He will continue to be rode and worked with while he is here but if your looking for a cool little spring project to turn into your next performance prospect, he is available! He is eligible for the Lucky 7 and Homegrown Classic incentives!

A little update for yall!

At this time, I am completely booked up for summer training and will not be accepting any more outside horses till late summer/early fall. Obviously this could change as the months go by if I have folks no show or cancel so I will keep everyone updated as the spring and summer go about training availability!

With that, I will have a few horses coming available in the next few months! If your looking for a nice prospect or a finish ranch horse, stay tuned as I will have both available!

I hope everyone is having a lovely week and enjoying some nice weather!

I hope everyone is staying warm these last few days during these brutal temperatures! Though it’s cold…we sure have good things to look forward to with warmer days and new foals on the way!! These three, yes you read that right…three!, mares are due in just a couple short months all within a few weeks of each other!

Diva, the black mare, and Dutton, the buckskin, are both bred to Allen Quarter Horses Stallion, Blue Bonnet Hayes, and I am so excited to see the cross on both mares after being around this stud and some of his older offspring! Miss, the roan mare is bred to Checking The Cows from Roth Performance Horses out of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa!

As we get closer to warmer spring days, stay tuned for more updates on these ladies and their foals!

Weather doesn’t matter around here..we will still get things done! Though we have been enjoying these warmer temps the last few days!

He’s been here almost a month so I figured it was time to introduce SRH ORPHAN SILK! This sweet little gelding is a 2022 baby and is in for training and will later be offered for sale! He is eligible for the Lucky 7 Bonus incentives as well as the Homegrown Classic incentives! He’s got a gentle and quiet demeanor and is eager to learn. He’s taken everything I’ve thrown at him so far with ease and picks things up quickly. As the days go by we get closer and closer to a first ride so stay tuned for more updates on him in the coming months.

Be sure the keep in mind that he will be available in the future as well!!

Here’s the official posting for this girl. Just send me a message and I’ll get ya in touch with her owner!

6/7 year old grade gray mare
14.1-14.2 hands tall
Leads/loads/ties good
Hobble broke
Crosses water, logs, ditches, etc
W/T/L/Stop/back
Side passes both directions and can work gates
Been roped off of in the branding pen and pasture.
Been used in two ranch rodeos
Can sort off her
Been used to pen, sort and load cows at the sale barn
Good for the farrier and- has been ran barefoot and with shoes. Currently barefoot
UTD on shots and dewormer
Teeth floated in June/July

Sierra is a handy little mare that has been used for a little bit of everything from trail riding to ranch work to the arena. She’s been consistently used at the sale barn to pen, sort and load cows and handles it all like a champ. Drug calves off of her this spring in the branding pen and she picked it up quickly and acted like she’d done it every day of her life. Hauled her to two ranch rodeos this summer and none of it bothered her, it was just another day of work for her. She has a lot of go but is easily controlled and will slow down when asked. She has not been roped off of out of a box but picks things up fast and tracks a calf well. Reins around nice and has a good stop on her. Moves off leg pressure. Same horse every time you ride her whether she’s sat 6 months or you rode her yesturday. Never offered to buck, kick, bite, etc. Her downfall is that she is hard to catch. In a small lot you can normally get her caught pretty easy, if she’s in a pasture, most likely she will need roped or ran into a catch pen. Some days she will come to a bucket of grain and let you catch her but not very often.

I’ve used this mare long and hard at the sale barn and she hasn’t quit me yet. She’s always game for whatever job needs done and she’ll give you her all till the job is done. Several others have rode and used her and she’s the same horse no matter who is on her. If someone put a little time into her I think this mare would make a nice breakaway/heel/calf roping horse.

Well folks…I don’t get to keep them all and with several youngsters of my own coming up, this girl is gonna get to find a new home. For those of you who have followed for a couple years now, you’ve gotten to see this girl progress from untouched to a great little all around horse. She’s the perfect size with the right amount of go and whoa for a handy little kid to finish out in the roping pen and stout enough for an adult to take and use all day on the ranch. She’s seen the sights of a rodeo arena, been to the branding pen and knows the ins and outs of the sale barn. An official ad will be coming soon but if you’ve had your eye on this girl before, feel free to message me and I’ll get you all the info I have and put you in touch with her owner!

What better way to celebrate National Day of the Horse than to introduce yall to the newest member!

This three year old gelding came to us a week ago and will be getting started and used for basic ranch work for a while. He’s got a few little attitude problems to work thru but seems to be a quick learner and has a quiet eye so I’m sure all the attitude is only surface level. He doesn’t have a name so if anyone has any ideas comment below!!
