Happy Valentines Day đˇđš
So happy to have had the time this month to drive down and visit our sweet boy who is currently leased by Ellis Equestrian Services in Virginia Beach.
He got a full spa treatment + a fresh body clip ⨠and unlimited cookies đŞ before we left.
Thank you to our clients, friends and family who continue to support our journey and love for these animals! You all are so appreciated! đ
One of my favorite clients needed an extra special body clip today đ¤ â¤ď¸
Because one heart isnât quite big enough for the love his owner has for him! â¨
Thank you to all of my returning clients and those who Iâve just met this season! Donât forget to book your body clipping needs before winter is fully upon us! âď¸
We love a freshly clipped pony! âŁď¸

Happy to say we have found the perfect lease for him! Thank you to everyone who has reached out and inquired on him!
We are happy to say that we have found the perfect lease for him! Thank you all for reaching out!
Offered for free/care lease (to the right person with contract and insurance) or sale to the perfect home! PLEASE NOTE: HE IS NOT SUITABLE AS A KIDS OR YOUNGER RIDERâS PONY! He is still very green and only lease or sale options will be entertained if you or your student meets the criteria he requires to excel.
Phantom of the Night âPhinâ is a premium 2017 GRP gelding. Sired by Evans Providence of the Night out of VPrSt Edenhofâs Dekadence (Dream Along x Replikah HF x Regulus)
Phin has been started under saddle, WTC and over fences, and is currently in training under Stevie Brook LeCain.
He is a sensitive pony that needs a confident and forward rider making him best suited for a professional or amateur rider comfortable with green horses and in a training program as he can be a bit opinionated about hard work at times. He does best in a program being ridden 3-5 times weekly as he is still green!
He has taken a quick interest in jumping and we have hopes that he will find an Eventing home as he has the movement and capability for upper level dressage with the scope to make a very capable and neat jumper in the ring and on cross country.
He has been to many schooling shows, dressage and over fences, and handles the atmosphere like a pro. His current trainer has instructed off of him, changing and resetting fences, mounting and dismounting in a warm up ring of 20+ horses and he didnât bat an eye.
Disclosure: Phin was born with a micropthalmia of the left eye that does not effect his ride ability or day to day life. It only makes him a bit special to all of us in his life - he is a completely normal horse and requires no maintenance or special treatment for this defect.
Please reach out if interested or wanting more information by texting or calling 919-909-2858 or sending me a PM.
Located in Catlett VA until the end of October.

Even the smallest equines may need clipping in the spring. đŚ
Miniatures are notorious for being late shedders and having thick hair coats. With the fluctuating weather of a classic Virginia âspringâ a body clip may help your horses regulate their body temperature better and avoid overheating.
Cool ponies are happy ponies! đź

This guy enjoyed a full Spring Spa đź treatment last weekend and is feeling ready for warmer temperatures, green grass and more riding time!
Our favorite time of the year!
WELCOME SPRING!
PSA No. 1: During shedding season, wear lip balm and fleece at your own risk.
PSA No. 2: If your horse is NOT shedding his coat this spring, or even not shedding as much as you think he should be, be sure to give your veterinarian a call â especially if your horse is 15 or older. A long haircoat that fails to shed according to normal seasonal patterns is the most classic sign of Equine Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (PPID), also known as Cushingâs disease. This disorder of the pituitary gland results in hormonal imbalances and is one of the most common diseases of middle-aged and geriatric horses.
Recognition of the clinical signs and early diagnoses are the first steps in identification of horses with PPID; treatment and implementation of excellent wellness practices (like strict attention to diet, teeth and hooves) are the key features to extending the life of a horse with PPID. Without treatment, symptoms tend to worsen over time and many horses are euthanized as a consequence of laminitis, recurrent foot abscesses or complications related to bacterial infections.
Contact your veterinarian for more information, or read more on our website at https://aaep.org/issue/equine-endocrinology-cushings-disease-and-metabolic-syndrome or at https://aaep.org/issue/equine-cushings-disease-equine-pituitary-pars-intermedia-dysfunction
