Daisy – “Cheyenne Adeleide”
18yo AQHA 15.2hh Dun Mare

I can’t say enough great things about this pretty, great minded, and even-tempered mare! She would be the best horse for an arena rider, weekend warrior ranch horse show goer, or trail rider.

She will transition up and down throughout her Walk, trot, and Canter with minimal ask and is super smooth throughout the ride with her perky ears forward disposition. She does not balk, bite, buck, kick, pin her ears, swish her tail, etc regardless of how much you ride her or who rides her. She’s kind and willing yet hasn’t had the crap rode out of her so she’s also still responsive to leg cues, direction, and is not hard-mouthed – all great qualities. She is super sweet and loves attention while being very easy to handle on the ground, leads respectfully, stands quietly wherever you put her, picks up her feet, and enjoys attention from anyone. She’s more towards the middle in the pecking order in the pasture. Runs with mares or geldings in pasture. Isn’t that “mareish” type mare in the pasture either.
She will rides out alone (with very minimal coaxing while pasture mates are calling for her) or with the group. She is easy to catch and stands quietly to be saddled. She is also good with both the vet and farrier. She is barefoot, sound, and does not need shoes, unless you’re doing a lot of road or gravel trail riding then I’d throw a set of fronts on- as with any horse. She neck reins nicely or rides off of leg cues, as well. No vices or health issue. NO maintenance needed either.

She is gentle and safe and I would say just about the whole family can ride her in the arena. I probably wouldn’t put a super timid\beginner or young kiddo on her due to her responsiveness and buttons, but if they know a little something, aren’t really timid and know how to say woah while sitting their butt in the saddle, she could have just about anyone on her back. She would be great for an older lady who just wants to ride and enjoy their horse, someone who would like to do the ranch riding shows (she has a super cute jog and extended trot and lopes her circles beautifully, pattern classes would be no problem), or use her as a trail horse.

Please message me for question, to setup a showing, or place a 10% deposit to hold and mark her sold-pending with deposit down to have first right of refusal on her. First come, first serve for showings and purchase. It is our policy that we do not hold horses without deposit and schedule one showing per day so that you always see a “fresh” horse pulled out of the pasture. Please feel free to take a look at our reviews. She is for sale due to not being ridden regularly by her current owner who had her for 10 years.

💎SOLD💎 - pending pickup

🌈 Rainbow 🌈

9yo liver chestnut 12.2hh English Welsh A Pony Mare
(Previously had papers but those have unfortunately been misplaced by previous owners)

She's absolutely great with kids. Rides and Drives. Has been used for the kids summer pony camp program, lessons, and trails. Kids drag her around everywhere safely and she loves attention. Awesome ground manners, lunges nicely - will be a bit spunky at the lope when free lunging in the arena - she thinks it’s cute. She’s really good to pony with other horses, as well.

She has had two beautiful foals. Ride her English, western, ba****ck. Walk, trot, lope. No health issues, maintenance, or vices. Stalled or pasture board. Has not shown evidence of founder,and is sound and ready for your kiddo to ride! Our farrier loves her and kids can easily pick her feet. Tacks up nicely, stands well in crossties or tying in stall. Not cinchy, ear pinning, etc. takes the bit and bridles very nicely. Has been jumped over small x’s in arena with bigger kids on her.

Only reason she’s for sale is due to lesson kids getting bigger and she’s just sitting too much throughout the year. Teaching pony’s like her are too hard to come by to just let sit! We would love to see a kiddo or family adore her and use her more regularly!

If you want something safe and sweet for your kiddos to learn on, love on, show, or trail ride with, she’s the one!

Tug 🛥️ 2014 Bay 15.1hh Grade Quarter Horse Gelding

❇️Trail and Ranch Experienced
💟Family safe
✴️Gentle & Kind
✅Sound

Tug has been used extensively as a trail horse and ranch horse. He has done some arena riding too but prefers the trail with a group or alone. He is gentle, quiet, willing and stays that way whether you let him sit for months or ride him every day. Anyone would enjoy his quiet temperament, especially on the ground, he is sweet and loves attention. Has had kids and adults ride him. He is not pushy and he is not spooky at all. He will stand quietly awaiting his tack, brushing, etc. He neck reins well ridden in a shank bit or will easily be direct reined in an o ring snaffle. He is definitely a bit more woah than go, as he takes a little pushing to get him into his lope. He has a good walk out on the trails and doesn’t get hot, he loves riding with his head low and keeps up with the group. He isn’t the type of horse that will run out from underneath someone, he’s more of a “push him forward” kind of horse. He does however, pick up his trot quickly for a rider with a simple cluck cluck and squeeze. He has a nice stop on him. I would say nearly anyone could ride him with ease on the trail. He also rides ba****ck with just a halter a lead rope, too. Ride him out the driveway alone and he won’t call for his friends or act up. Has been hauled all over. Has been used to check cattle and trail ride. He a trusty mount you know you can get your job done on. He is honest one hand broke, goes where you point him without a fuss. Cross what you come to and go over what ya need to. Has been ridden by the whole family. Fun for everyone!

On the trail, he will go in the front back or middle of the pack of horses but would be best in middle or back with a beginner rider (this is something I would say on any horse broke or not, confident riders in the front). Does great for farrier, loads like a dream, bathes, and hauls beautifully without issue. Will take a blanket just fine and enjoys being pampered. He has no vices, bad habits, or crappy quirks. Stands tied, stands for mounting and dismounting. Has a good stop on him but I would say he needs work on backing up. He turns whatever direction you want, point his nose and go or cue with your legs. He will go out alone or with the other horses. He has seen cattle. He isn’t afraid of anything! Good with vehicles and on the road.

He is very easy to catch. Well behaved in a stall or turned out with the group of mares or geldings or in a paddock alone. He’s in the middle of the pecking order. Easy keeper. Does fine on pasture in the summer or just hay. He is barefoot and doesn’t need shoes or any maintenance! SOUND!

Prayers for the Miller Family and their community. I had the opportunity to meet Menno at the Waverly sale last year. With it being my first time at the sale, he graciously lended me a spot to keep the one horse I brought and even a water bucket for the duration of my stay after mine had flown out of my truck-bed somewhere along the drive. To say this family is kind is an understatement. If you have anything to spare, please take a moment to donate what you’re able and say a prayer for them. Every little bit helps but it won’t bring back their kiddos or take away any of this pain 🥺

💎 Pistol 💎

18-19 yr old 15hh gelding who runs like a 7yo and wasn’t pushed. Currently a 2D/3D with more to give and definitely a 2D with 1D potential, as he has a big motor. Can do barrels, poles, plug, gymkhana events on him. He is currently doing little britches with his intermediate teen rider who started barrels this year. Has more speed that hasn’t been tapped into and isn’t the right fit for her. No Buck, rear, or funny business. He’s a great traveler, eats/drinks on the road. Loads and unloads great. Stands for farrier and has great feet without shoes. Great ground manners and kind with his rider. Easy keeper. Not buddy or barn sour, rides alone without issue. UTD on all vaccines, teeth, feet, coggins. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body but needs someone who is confident to give him the reins and let him open up that speed. Would be super competitive with a more advanced rider than he currently has.

He wants to please, would make a safe, sound, competitive horse!!

🌵 Trail Horse
🚨Ranch Versatility Horse
🔥 Rope Horse

SAFE, GENTLE, 100% SOUND!!!
Beautiful, thick b***d and bodied, gentle and safe, loving, level headed and sane.

King is a pretty, quiet flea-bitten gray gelding who will take you down the trail, pasture to check the fence line, or around the arena with ease. He has experience being roped off heading/heeling during roping practices, doing ranch work, gathering steer, as well as, trail riding. King has many, many more years of riding and has been well taken care of. He does not need any maintenance and is sound. He is good with the vet and farrier and up to date on cares.

This gelding wants a job and will work for you everyday. He will move through his gaits nicely and with minimal cues, he’s still nice and responsive for you. He neck reins well and will stop HARD. He would make a fantastic ranch, trail, or arena horse. Loads, hauls, bathes and stands tied. He’s an easy keeper, as well.

He is an athlete and loves to work! He is the perfect size and has a willing attitude, he would excel as an all around ranch versatility, home arena, organized sortings, fun shows/gymkhana, or perfect quiet trail horse! He has been hauled to and ran in jackpots and ropings, he runs hard on heading side and faces but, he’s just not working out for current owner. He has more to give for the right person in the roping category.

He is sound with clean legs, nice barefoot feet, and has great gaits/transitions, making him ideal for any riding discipline! He’s going to stand out in a crowd and will look good wherever he’s at. No vices. He is friendly, quiet, and kind to be around on the ground.

💎 Cowboy Dougs Chick 💎
2007 15.1hh AQHA Buckskin Mare
Maisi is a pretty quarter horse mare who has been used most recently for gaming, barrels, ranch sorting, some roping, and trails with her teen rider.

Maisi been ridden around the farm, road, arena, and trails. She is easy to handle on the ground and catch in the pasture, picks up her feet, and leads nicely. She stands for saddling/bridling and willingly transitions through all gaits while riding. She neck reins nicely or direct reins, as well. She has great feet, no shoes needed, and is good with the farrier.

On the trails, Maisi is content to ride quiet and is not a spooky horse. She is good with other horses and can be ridden front, middle, or back of the string. We have had teen beginners ride her in the pasture and trails and she has done very well. She’s the extra horse you pull out for almost anyone to ride. She has no bite, rear, kick or buck. She is great with cows and has done ranch sorting, as well as, been used for checking pastures and fencing. She is good along the road and not shy with traffic. She will ride out alone with minimal coaxing.

She can be used as a consistent quiet trail mount, has potential to be a great drill team or endurance horse and will go all day for you, or continue to use her for gaming/fun shows/speed events. She has done barrels and knows the pattern but would need to be seasoned. Would be great for someone interested in fun shows/gymkhana type events including barrels, plug, flag, pole bending, home run, key hole, LT special, egg and spoon. She hasn’t been pushed hard competitively so she would be great for someone at a more introductory level too. She’s been with her current owner for 4 years.
Maisi would be suitable with an adult beginner or intermediate youth rider.

She really likes Gelding’s and tends to get a bit attached to them. Current on Coggins and all cares. No vices. No maintenance needed.

Things your riding instructor wants you to know:
1. This sport is hard. You don't get to bypass the hard…..every good rider has gone through it. You make progress, then you don't, and then you make progress again. Your riding instructor can coach you through it, but they cannot make it easy.

2. You're going to ride horses you don't want to ride. If you're teachable, you will learn from every horse you ride. Each horse in the barn can teach you if you let them. IF YOU LET THEM. Which leads me to…

3. You MUST be teachable to succeed in this sport. You must be teachable to succeed at anything, but that is another conversation. Being teachable often means going back to basics time and time and time again. If you find basics boring, then your not looking at them as an opportunity to learn. Which brings me to…..

4. This sport is a COMMITMENT. Read that, then read it again. Every sport is a commitment, but in this sport your teammate weighs 1200 lbs and speaks a different language. Good riders don't get good by riding every once in awhile….they improve because they make riding a priority and give themsevles opportunity to practice.

5. EVERY RIDE IS AN OPPORTUNITY. Even the walk ones. Even the hard ones. Every. Single. Ride. Remember when you just wished someone would lead you around on a horse? Find the happiness in just being able to RIDE. If you make every ride about what your AREN'T doing, you take the fun out of the experience for yourself, your horse, and your instructor. Just enjoy the process. Which brings me to...

6. Riding should be fun. It is work. and work isn't always fun.....but if you (or your rider) are consistently choosing other activities or find yourself not looking forward to lessons, it's time to take a break. The horses already know you don't want to be here, and you set yourself up for failure if you are already dreading the lesson before you get here.

7. You'll learn more about horses from the ground than you ever will while riding. That's why ground lessons are important, too. If you're skipping ground lessons (or the part of your lesson that takes place on the ground), you're missing out on the most important parts of the lesson. You spend far more time on the ground with horses than you do in the saddle.

8. Ask questions and communicate. If you're wondering why your coach is having you ride a particular horse or do an exercise, ask them. Then listen to their answer and refer to #3 above.

9. We are human beings. We make decisions (some of them life and death ones) every day. We balance learning for students with workloads for horses and carry the bulk of this business on our shoulders. A little courtesy goes a long way.

Of all the sports your child will try through their school years, riding is one of 3 that they may continue regularly as adults (golf and skiing are the others). People who coach riding spend the better part of their free time and much of their disposable income trying to improve their own riding and caring for the horses who help teach your child. They love this sport and teaching others…..but they all have their limits. Not all good riders are good coaches, but all good coaches will tell you that the process to get good is not an easy one.

*thank you to whoever wrote this! Not my words, but certainly a shared sentiment!

Tater and Liberty went to their new home last night. They will be getting broke out by some of the best mule trainers in the country and will hopefully make someone extremely happy in the future!

This was a bittersweet sale as I will miss them both terribly, as they were both babies with us. They’re now 3 year olds and they’re ready for their job!

This mare is the kind you want to have in the arena. She moves through her gaits easily and wants to please. She has been ridden by kids 10+ yo. She is very sweet and would do well with someone who wants to love on her. She has very good ground manners, stands tied, and is good with the vet and farrier too.
She has been used for lessons and prefers arena riding. She neck reins and direct reins and can be ridden in a shank, halter/lead, or snaffle bit. She has a really good stop on her too.

She has pretty good pasture manners and is not chasing anyone else around and she is middle of pecking order. Runs with mares or geldings.

Easy, easy, easy, throw anyone on her after initial first couple rides after all winter off. She’s a super cute little mare! She can be a little cinchy, (raising her head/giving a little sass) but I just go a little slower than I would normally and don’t wrench up the girth on her. She seems to appreciate that. If you have a larger rider on her and work her hard, she can come up a little stiff in the front end, I’d suggest a lighter rider or working with farrier to maybe put a set of shoes on her/giving her cosequin. Follow the leader type trail horse, not the most confident riding alone on trails so I would say not beginner rider for trail!

Please message me for question, to setup a showing, or place a 10% deposit to hold and mark her sold-pending with deposit down to have first right on her. We can haul in Midwest or assist in delivery anywhere in US. First come first serve for showings and purchase. It is our policy that we do not hold without deposit. Please feel free to take a look at our reviews. For sale due owner being older and having hip surgery and not riding anymore.

‘06 AQHA 15hh Bay Mare

I can’t say enough great things about this little mare. She’s as solid as they come on the the trails road and parades. Goes over bridges, through the woods, and down the road leading the pack with her nice ground covering walk and perky ears forward disposition. Goes through water, over bridges, through the woods right up to grandma’s door!

She loves trail riding and will move through her gaits when asked W/T/C, just enjoy the ride. She is used to vehicles, motorcycles, and bicycles passing her. She absolutely does not prefer the arena after she was pushed for barrel racing (not her cup of tea). She is very easy to handle on the ground, picks up her feet, and leads nicely. Is middle in the pecking order in the pasture. Runs with mares or geldings in pasture. Isn’t that “mareish” type mare in the pasture either. She rides out alone (with minimal coaxing while pasture mates are calling for her) or with the group. She is pretty easy to catch and is good with both the vet and farrier. She is barefoot and does not need shoes, unless you’re doing a lot of road or gravel trail riding then I’d throw a set of fronts on her. She is quiet yet responsive under saddle. She neck reins nicely or direct reins, as well. No vices or health issue. No maintenance needed either.

Ride her in a shank or with just a halter and lead rope. Super Quiet and no spook on the trail and will ride all day long without fuss.

She has done parades, rodeo grand entry carrying a flag, and drill team riding too. She is gentle and safe and I would say just about the whole family can ride her on the trails, aside from the very little kiddos as she does have a nice forward walk to her. I probably wouldn’t put a super beginner or really young child on her for that reason but if they’re not worried about that, she could have anyone on her back.

She is up to date on coggins, dewormed, and spring 5-way shot.

Please message me for question, to setup a showing, or place a 10% deposit to hold and mark her sold-pending with deposit down to have first right on her. First come first serve for showings and purchase. It is our policy that we do not hold without deposit. Please feel free to take a look at our reviews. For sale due to new (human) baby being born and no time to ride.

Peanut is the cutest little curious fuzzball I’ve ever seen! She leads better than a horse and is great with sheep, goats, cows, other minis and horses. She will protect your pasture very nicely and is respectful of the fence. I’m unsure if she rides or not. She’s been a chunky little thing over winter so she’s been on a diet recently and is looking great!
She is healthy and ready for her home. Coggins in hand

“The horse market will never be the same. Welcome to the new normal. It has become a luxury again to be a horse owner. The great ones are going above $40k. One in MT brought $100k. A Gypsy Vanner brought $500k last week. The average cost of a decent and safe family horse that is well broke, nice looking, not lame and not old is over $10k now. If you want a cheap horse you have to be ok with green or old or some lameness. If you are waiting for the market to come down I personally do not think it will. We are in new territory. The audience that can be reached now for horse sales has no limit due to the world wide web. Horse auctions that use to only have buyers sitting in the seats in front of them now go live online and have bidders from all over the US and beyond. When you view one of these sales you will hear the auctioneer say "sold online!" Over and over and over. You may think that an auction in Montana or Texas has nothing to do with local private sale prices but it absolutely does. The internet has also made it possible for Private sellers to have a wider audience. We went from hanging up a "horse for sale" sign on telephone poles to online horse groups with thousands of members in such a short time. Now shoppers are willing to travel and some willing to buy and have the horse shipped just from viewing videos. Buying the horse is only the start. Everything else about horse ownership has gone up. Gas prices effect every bale of hay, bag of grain, dewormer and suppliment. Now we cannot even get our own penicillin. Equine Vet prices are triple what is charged for dogs or cats. I don't sell very many horses anymore because people are still expecting to get a great one for $3500. I cannot even get one for that price right now but IF I DID then I would need to tune up, vet up, feed up, haul around and experience up, farrier up, dental up, pay teen riders to test and test and test up to make sure it's safe for anyone AND then be able to price it so that I am covering all those expenses and still have good profit. Most people who enjoy improving a horse even if it's just to resale have invested their heart too. How can you not love them after all that time spent but you still have to come out ahead financially. The horse is only part of it. Sellers have to deal with hundreds of people. The just curious, just looking, just want a thousand questions answered on text and then ghost you without even a thank you, the not in my price range even though I knew the price before coming, the rode your horse for two hours then say I don't have all the money, the bring my trainer and my 3 friends and all of them ride your horse for 3 hours and then say we have 10 more to look at before deciding, the people who say they can ride then do not know how to get on, the know it all with attitude, the rude, the lonely who just like to test ride all over the state and talk for hours,, the loose kids running all around your property, the ones you coach and give free lessons to for hours and then say they do not plan to buy until next month, the can I make payments?, and the ones who just do not show up after you have bathed, groomed and braided the horse. And in my case I do it ALL with a smile and kind words because I like people. If you encounter a less patient seller keep all this in mind. They go through a lot 😅😅 The moral of this story is save up and increase your budget before shopping but still ...you only live once! Buy the horse!”

💎 JUST A LIL BIT 💎

CUTE 3YO 15.1hh AQHA gelding by The Lopin Machine and out of Lil Bit of Potential, a daughter of Potential Investment.

Fiddy has a great start to his training. He is currently growing and is hip high at 15.3hh.
He clips, bathes, ties, crossties, and stands for vet & farrier. He is such a pleasant horse to be around and has a playful personality. You do not want to miss out on this guy. He will make a competitive all-around horse and will surely take you places.

He is maiden & has been hauled to shows. This is a sweet, attractive gelding with a very bright future. He has the movement and would certainly excel in state shows, circuit, etc, just needs some finishing!

He is sound with no current maintenance needed. We do have X-rays for anyone interested.

Priced super reasonably!

Coming 4yo 15.3hh APHA gelding by Fleet Machine and out of an Invitation Only daughter

This little gelding is being offered to a good home who wants a quiet minded little horse to ride. He stands for saddling, mounting, vet and farrier. Up to date on all cares. Indy has a great mindset and rides with his ears forward and happy always. He will make a great riding horse but will not make the show string. For this reason, he is offered at a great price to the right person! Couple videos in comments.

Please message for further information or to schedule a showing.

Teddy is a stout built, 6 year old Dapple Grey Percheron QH Cross Gelding that stands nearly 16.2hh. He is a well traveled and very versatile horse! He has been hauled to organized trail rides and camping trips throughout SD, IN, OH, IA, KY, MN, TN, and has ridden all over the trails of WI, too! He has earned his living being a steady mount for a 62 yo man for the last 3yrs being rode many miles and encountering every obstacle possible on the trail. He will go up or down the steepest slopes, across deep creeks, over downed trees, and over all types of rough terrain while still being sure footed. He’s been ridden through and seen cows and will cross anything that is in his path. He is safe riding in traffic and has had a variety of equipment operated around him without bother - including atvs, skidsteer, tractors, and golf carts. He’s the type that can put 100 miles on in 2 weeks during a camping trip or let him relax in pasture for a month and take him on a ride. He has never offered to buck, kick, rear, or bite. He has come across a rattlesnake on trail and kept his rider safe staying calm. He has also been entangled in barbed wire and allowed his rider to dismount and free him without worry. He is a confident horse on the trails and will lead the crew, head out alone, or follow behind with no issues!
Teddy is always in 4 wheel drive and will take care of his rider in rough areas. He has been exposed to a variety of wildlife such as deer, turkey, and other animals like cows, dogs, cats, and will go anywhere that he is asked, even breaking trail without question. He is loving and respectful on the ground. Great with bathing, fly spray, and stand tied wherever you put him.

Teddy is sound and has a nice ground covering walk, a beautiful extended jog, and will kick right into a cute, fluid, and comfortable rocking chair lope despite his size. He has buttons and knows how to perform turns, sidepass, back, stands and waits for your direction. He will stand for mounting and dismounting from the ground and will move over to the mounting block for his rider. Has been ridden in indoor and outdoor arenas, as well. Will go English or western.

He is not cinchy, cold backed, does not crib, weave or have any vices. He can be stalled or pasture boarded. Barefoot unless riding very rocky ground, does not need shoes but is great for farrier and vet.

Teddy’s owner recently purchased a smaller mount thus the reason for sale. He is young with a long life ahead of him, if you’re looking for an awesome trail horse, a fancy looking sport horse, mounted patrol, or western dressage horse…Teddy will be a great candidate!
