CM Performance Horses

At CM Performance Horses, I take in outside horses for foundation work, tune ups, barrel patterning, seasoning/hauling, etc.

I also ride & sell horses on consignment as well as have a small breeding program. Look for the CM Arrow brand on future offspring

This 6 year old mare, Paisley, is doing well with only just shy of a week on the pattern!

She’s taken to things naturally, which makes the process that much more fun!

🌵 Keebler 🌵

Keebler is a grade bay gelding standing at 15 hands. He’s been used for trail riding, local 4H shows, state fair, parades, etc.

Keebler is broke broke and doesn’t spook at anything. He’s been there done that. He would be great for an intermediate rider needing a step up or just a great trail partner!

Keebler has no vices. He stands tied, great with the farrier, loads and unloads in a slant trailer, etc. He is kept barefoot. His only maintenance is allergies for which he gets a monthly injection. UTD on all cares.

Located near Aurelia, IA. Asking $5,000 OBO. A good home is a must. Will be picky on where he goes.

I’m not loving these early, dark nights & definitely am not looking forward to daylight savings this weekend.

But I am thankful for bright yard lights to provide just enough light to ride yet while we still have this beautiful fall weather! 🤩

Diva is handling everything that’s thrown at her like a true champ!

The truck driving by didn’t even phase her.

She’s ready to crack out of the round pen and start working on collection, side passing, pivots, etc.

I wish all the c**ts that came in made my job this easy like she does! 🤩

24/10/2024

From pen & paper to reality. Dirt really can turn to gold!

From the day I bought the place in June 2023 to what it is present time is better than I ever could have imagined. The road to get here may have been less than ideal. But sometimes blessings come disguised.

It’s been a year of hustling & grinding to get here. But I think I can say I’ve made it count.

Excited for what’s in store in 2025 for CM Performance Horses!

Special is SOLD and making her way to Texas next weekend to a very special place with a multiple time NFR Qualifier! 🤩

22/10/2024

Diva is coming along well in her time here! Even when the winds picked up she stayed cool and calm.

Excited to continue to build on her foundation!

21/10/2024

SFR Sterling Cash is starting to really get things down.

Brandy is progressing more and more with each run. We inched up into the middle of the 3D on Sunday at the H3 Arena run!

I am eager to continue to build on this and see where she’s at in another month!

20/10/2024

3 year old, SMC Last Call Missy, making a decent stroll through the pattern today at the H3 Arena.

Little by little, Swayze’s getting things figured out! It’s going to be a fun winter of exposing her!

Looking into winter & 2025 ❄️

I am booked through the end of November, but will have openings from December on!

My spring typically fills up pretty fast and I have a couple on my list already! Make sure to reach out and secure your training spot!

April has one spot left
May is BOOKED

In 2025, I will be requiring a 60 day minimum on most horses, some exceptions will be made. This change is being added for the benefit of you and your horse. The more time I get to spend on your horse, the better quality you can take home!

Progress of the CM Arrow brand from application in April 2024 to now, October 2024. This brand is on two horses so far and I’m excited to get it on some future colts that come out of the breeding program!

Dreams are coming true here at CM Performance Horses! ✅ Pens ✅ Round Pen Set ✅ Arena is in progress I can only hope the weather stays nice this fall so I can enjoy the arena yet before winter!

Pens are filling up here at CM Performance Horses 🤩 Blessed to have horses outside my front door again 🥰

Little by little we’re making gains. Rider error on my part at 1st barrel. Brandy went from blowing the first barrel to telling me “hey, I’ve got this!” - I ended up helping her too much on the backside of that 1st barrel 😂 We’re learning to stride out and free up on the straights, and gaining speed! Seasoning the young ones isn’t for the faint of heart 🤪 Cleveringa Equine - L & C Custom Feeds Warrior Fly Boots

The Backstory

I am Chyenne Mortenson. I grew up near Cherokee, IA on a small family farm which encompassed cattle, hog, and grain operations. My passion for horses started as a young child, and progressed from there. I started my foundation in the showing world which laid a solid foundation of my horsemanship skills. As I grew older, I transitioned into the barrel racing and rodeo industry. That’s where I found my niche in the equine industry.

My cousin introduced me to horses when I was eight years old. I was hooked instantly, and somehow convinced my dad with my charm to buy me a horse of my own. I started my showing debut in the Sioux Valley Appaloosa Club, and joined the local 4H club as soon as I was eligible. I started to find my true passion in barrel racing when I began entering local NBHA jackpots around my 7th grade year. From there I participated in the Iowa High School Rodeo Association, and rodeoed at the amateur and collegiate level at SDSU.

Since then I have had individuals coming to me to tune up, train, and/or sell their horses. I have taken my own personal horses and trained them as well. This is where my idea sparked for CM Performance Horses to make it something of my own.
