Intelligence, breeding, looks, and personality… this 2 year old c**t has it all! From the start Drifter has been the easiest c**t to get along with. He is a quick study and readily picked up on everything we have done from balls and tarps to saddling. He is still a stud but he doesn’t know it yet. We have known this c**t from day 1 and he has not had any health or soundness issues. He has some big names on his papers but Drifter can go in any direction. He is started under saddle and will be 3 in the spring and ready to get rode. Call 970-556-4820 for more information.

🪢 RaNcH & RoPe on this RoAn 🪢

Home raised SMART BACARDI PEPTO aka JAKE is a 12 year Old finished ranch & rope horse. He'll be available for purchase at the Swaney Sale Horse Showcase on September 30th from 10-4 in Fort Collins. More info @ swaneyhorsesales.com

🐴"Jake" has had one owner his whole life.
He has had many years in our professional training program, we have hauled him and roped on him in Texas, and he has spent 2 months in a professional roping program in AZ. He hauls and travels well.

I’m going to be as honest as one can be in this ad because this horse means a great deal to me and I want him to go somewhere he’s used and valued.

Jake is a kind horse but he is a no bu****it type of horse. If you want to feed him treats all day he will eat them but he won’t respect you. You are not going to get along with him if you try and “let him make his own decisions and feel his feelings.” He has been handled his whole life by very confident people and hasn’t been allowed to get away with anything. If you let him, I don’t know what will happen. He hasn’t been tiptoed around and if you do he will eat you for breakfast, lunch and every meal after that. He is one of the smartest horses I’ve been around. He is catty and intuitive.

He’s extremely broke, I rode this horse 8 months pregnant with my son and could have done anything on him. He spins, moves laterally, collects and moves how one should.

This horse is HANDY and will flat get around. He’s one of the only horses I’ve ridden that moves around like he is 14hh but is actually 16hh. He is soft in the face and works off leg and seat.

You want one that will hold up forever and be your ranch partner? S**g bulls? Pick up broncs? Start c**ts off of? Head on? He’s the one for you. If you can appreciate a well trained, athletic stunning gelding, come try him out.

He has tracked cattle out of the box and been roped off of, not finished but will not take much. He is all business.

He will be shown at the showcase, we will not be allowing test rides to just anyone so come talk to us and if we feel you are a good fit for him you are welcome to try him out.

09/25/2023

⏰⏰⏰The showcase is 6 DAYS away! ⏰⏰⏰ We're hosting this event to show off 30+ horses we are selling from our own herd and on consignment. We want YOU to join us for an all new buying experience!

🐴 Come test ride, preview, and purchase PRIVATE TREATY from a family that has been selling horses for decades. We are passionate about the quality of our stock and can't wait for you to check them out! 🐴

🎉 RECENTLY ADDED to swaneyhorsesales.com ! 🎉

⏰ Come meet "Phoebe" and 30+ other sale horses on THIS SATURDAY September 30th at our Swaney Sale Horse Showcase in Fort Collins, CO! ⏰

Phoebe is a stocky flashy safe mare that is ready to find her forever family.

With her flashy looks, everyone will want her to show off and ride.

She is easy to ride and not spooky at all, has more go than whoa but very broke with a one hand neck rein.

We sold her a little over a year ago as beginner safe and the owners ended up not riding her enough but we hopped on and she didn’t miss a beat. I would recommend an intermediate rider as of right now because she does like to move out but won’t take much to get her back to beginner safe.

Loves trails, loves water and doesn’t mind traffic and bikes. No vices on the ground or under saddle. She’s super sweet and loves to be around you. Loves to be caught in the pasture.

Check out this awesome mare and come and try her out.

All Phoebe's info is available on our website:

🏍🏍🏍A SMART DELTA CAT aka "HARLEY" 🏍🏍🏍

Available for viewing, test rides, and private treaty purchase at the Swaney Sale Horse Showcase on September 30th. More info swaneyhorsesales.com

Harley is a really kind gelding with an easy going personality and laid back disposition. We have ridden him all over: the center of Fort Collins, the mountains, down the road and hauled him to local ropings. I’ve thrown the kids on him and he packs them with no issues. He stays calm and collected no matter where he is or who is riding him. He is easy to ride, extremely soft in the face, has a good stop and goes wherever you point him. We hauled him to several ropings and he has tracked cattle and been roped off of. He shows potential to be a competitive heel horse. He’s great to handle on the ground as well, ties quietly, loads right up, easy to catch and good with his feet. No vices, no naughty behaviors and stays quiet no matter what. This gelding is GENTLE yet athletic and will make an awesome horse for someone to do anything with. The possibilities are endless, heel horse, kids horse, trail horse, you name it. Point him in the direction you want and he will take you there and make it enjoyable the whole way. That being said, I recommend at least an intermediate rider or a beginner working with a trainer. He needs some more riding under his belt to be considered complete beginner safe, although it will not take much. The little girl riding him in the videos is 11yo and he took care of her and was very patient. This gelding deserves the world and I can’t wait to help find his forever home. Come and try him, you won’t be disappointed.

Check out this flashy 2023 AQHA Filly! 🌹✨

https://swaneyhorsesales.com/sale-horses/lot-5-laddies-red-roan-filly/

This filly was born April 6, 2023. She is sired by “Peptos Boon Doc”, who is by “One Eyed Dream”. Her dam, “Laddies Last Sunset” is really special to me. She is a half sister to my good buckskin bridle horse who is one of the best riding horses I’ve ever had. I brought Laddie to college with me and trained her, and she was athletic, easy to get along with, and had a great temperament. She has always been kind and people oriented with a great personality.

This filly is a great ranch/roping/all around prospect and will be gentle enough for the whole family to enjoy. She is showing loads of athletic ability and a kind personality.

She is halter broke, leads, loads, hard ties, and has had her feet trimmed. Don’t miss out on this fancy filly!

She sells NEXT SATURDAY, September 30th in Fort Collins, CO!! 🤩

🫅🫅🫅 OLYMPUS 🫅🫅🫅 available for viewing with 30+ other horses at the Swaney Sale Horse Showcase on September 30th - all info @ swaneyhorsesales.com

🎩🎩🎩
Olympus is a 5-year-old 14.3hh hand Friesian gelding. He certainly would win every beauty pageant you stick him in; talk about a handsome young horse! If his flashy look doesn’t grab your attention, his kind & easygoing demeanor will! He is also absolutely genius and picks up on everything you teach him. He even knows how to dance!
Olympus is very broke with an extremely nice handle. He smoothly picks up his gaits with a deep stop. Moves off leg pressure stays light in the bridle & is uncomplicated to ride. He is quiet & easy to get along with.
Nothing phases this horse. He is safe with absolutely no nonsense. He has been riding in & out of the arena. He loves cruising down the trails or going to town. He has an amazing mind, and he’s seen every sort of oddball human creation and trail obstacle we could find. The sky is the limit for a horse as great as Olympus, he can go any direction & with his training, he is ready to pick up the career that you’d like for him or be a great companion horse to have under you in the trail!
He loves people and comes with great ground manners. He is started English jumping and dressage and is as fancy as they come when it comes to movement!! He has jumped up to 2”6 and could easily go higher.
We have had all-level riders on him, from beginners doing riding lessons to cross-country jumpers and ranchers!
He is easy to be around, good to catch & loves to be groomed. He stands quietly for the farrier and to be saddled/bridled. Olympus is patient when it comes to being saddled and mounted as well. There’s no funny business!

Olympus does have a mild swayback but has no pain or issues. He fits into a normal saddle and has no restrictions.

Sound, sane & ready to move into your barn!

🛶🛶🛶 LOT #10 SKIPPER 🛶🛶🛶 available at the Swaney Sale Horse Showcase on September 30th. More info at swaneyhorsesales.com - Once in a lifetime gelding here!

Need a horse to put someone that has never ridden on? Need a horse for your grandma or husband that will take care of them? Skipper is as good as you can get.

I never thought I would sell a horse this young as completely beginner kid friendly. Skipper checks all the boxes and is as kid safe as you possibly can have. He has packed complete beginners through the center of Fort Collins, kids up in the mountains, and kids that have never ridden before in beginner kids camp. He stays solid and quiet no matter who is on him.

Nothing phases him through town, bikes, cars, semis, barking dogs, bridges, etc. He is extremely broke as well as gentle.

I’ve never seen him spook, it’s just not in him. He’s kind and easy to handle. He LOVES people and is a complete ham with the kids. He’s friendly, easy to catch and walks right up to you.

He has a one hand neck rein, ride him in a hackamore or a bit or even a halter and he stays the same. He’s great with time off. Give him a year off and just hop on and he rides off quiet.

Not buddy or barn sour, stands quietly in all situations.
He is lower in the pecking order and gets along with anyone in a herd. Loads into the trailer with no fuss, ties quietly, is good with his feet, stands statue still for saddling and bridling and has NO vices.
He is an easy keeper, sound, healthy, no previous health problems. He has good big feet that will hold up for years to come.

There is not geldings like this that come around very often. He’s so special and will make an incredible addition to your family for years to come.

Feel free to come and try him and he will be shown at the showcase by the lesson kids that have learned to love him in our program.
