Who wouldn’t want a palazzo with a separate HORSE staircase to bring your guests to their rooms?! Or a room full of life size models of you on your horse in different outfits?! 😂 🐴

This is Tori. If you put her in a large field, you’ll never catch her. If you lock her in a stall, she’ll dig a 2 foot hole. If you’re holding her for an exam, better watch your fingers because she’ll bite you (she’s always good to the examiner though 😇) Despite all that, we ❤️ her. Some broodmares are just special and they know it….

Happy Labor Day! Many thanks to all our EFS clients-we appreciate your business! Thanks to the EFS staff for making everything run smoothly (even when we thought it wouldn’t!!) And a extra thanks to Loren for this beautiful and uniquely EFS planter! 🍂🍁🐴

Last stallion of the season! Hard to tell which of us is happier 😂

On vacation in Athens, Greece (if you talked to me at all in the week before I left you KNOW I needed it!) This bronze sculpture, “The Artemision Jockey” was created in 140 BC 🤯🤯 It’s known for the realistic facial features of the young rider, but I would argue that the stallion’s (yup, I looked!) features are just as dramatic and emotional. And check out the brand on the right thigh of the horse: Nike or winged victory that he got for WINNING an equestrian competition 😬 I’m pretty sure he didn’t know that was coming or he might not have tried so hard! But I guess it’s the blue ribbon you carry with you!

Our horse of the week is the lovely Arrowhead’s Melania. Mel has become a barn favorite because of her sweet & curious disposition (and because she’s the only mare who likes to play with her jolly ball!)

Here’s to all the stallions on Father’s Day! Whether the “swimmers” arrive in a straw, a box or in person, it’s always amazing to see spermatozoa under the microscope! Check back next week to find out if this guy got the job done 🐎

This week’s featured mare is Ebony! This lovely Gypsy Vanner came to us Friday for her second ultrasound exam (aka the “heartbeat check”) She is so gorgeous herself we can’t wait to see what a beauty of a foal she has! 😍💓 💓

06/04/2022

This week is a two-for-one for horse of the week: Dreamgirl and her foal! This mamma made such a beautiful foal that we are so excited to try and make another! Dreamgirl is teaching her to be confident and vocal, and we love watching her develop and grow here at EFS! 💕 (And who doesn’t love a close up baby muzzle?!)

We are starting weekly Friday features of horse of the week! To kick it off, Harlow is this week’s horse of the week here at EFS! Harlow is a beautiful red roan being bred to a homozygous black stallion using frozen semen. Any guesses to what the possible foal color will be??

Congratulations to all graduates throwing their 🎓in the air today including our new EFS team member Loren!

Spring is in full bloom here at EFS! 🌸
We are excited to be helping beautiful mares, like Selah, work towards becoming expectant mothers.

Fri-yaaaay! Some weeks are long for the horses too, especially when you’re the official greeter for the stallions at EFS 😂

Anyone looking forward to more snow? 🥶🥶

French lesson for the day (all about horses) L’ecurie=the stable
Etalon rouge= red stallion
Petit etalon= c**t (little stallion) They call this bottle “Silly Filly” which is such a cute name that I’m letting the gender misnomer slide…
And finally (and obviously) the universal sign for “drink wine here” 🍷🐴🇫🇷

A field of horses on the way to the vineyard…the real reason I’m in France 😉🍷🇫🇷🐴

Our visit to Chateau Chenonceau in the Loire valley was short on horses, but the magnificent chateau and grounds (complete with their own herd of donkeys) made a memorable experience. Getting my caffeine fix in the former stables got me dreaming of a barn makeover 🤔🇫🇷🐴

09/18/2021

Chateau Chambord…a “simple” hunting lodge built by King Francis I. (Every king needs a cool hunting getaway 😂)
I missed seeing their horse and raptor show in person, but caught the discreet castle stall cleaning 🐴🇫🇷

09/17/2021

Vacation time in France 🇫🇷 Like usual, my pics are all horses or food…
First stop, Orleans, saved by Joan of Arc and the Cathedrale Sainte-Croix d’Orleans featuring amazing stained glass windows depicting the life of the “maid of Orleans” (and her very well dressed horse!)

Can I find some actual French horses? Stay tuned…

Making it thru the heat wave any way we can 🌞

Foal Friday! Three cute fellas and a filly, all back with their moms. Which one do you want for your barn? 🥰🥰

Grey skies here, and lots of grey mares at EFS this week! Here are Ditty, Winnie, Charm, Ruby aka Frosty, and Luna (she wasn’t into the photo shoot 😂)
