Gemtime SA Dance Monkey
And suitably named as what a cheeky monkey this handsome blue eye lad is, the largest of the team in the Cat c ring.
Lightly shown this last season and certainly with fantastic results he has earned his spot for the 2021/22 show season. Let’s just hope his antics don’t ruin it lol 😂 but it may come in handy when he starts jumping fault and out. Last seasons he took on a full height stable door as a yearling and almost cleared it with Alex catching him mid air 🤦♀️

Last weekend we attended the North Otago A&P show. This is one of our favourite shows of the season as we get to enjoy halter and performance classes.

Kira, Blue, Beau and Beadin all showed there little hearts out and did us proud.
Beau and beaudin placed very well in all there classes against some tough competition.

So watch this space

Alex, Shev and Brittany would like to wish everyone the best of luck this weekend. We always enjoy seeing everyone and there horses.

Safe travels xx

I got told the other day by a friend that they are awaiting our next introduction... so here goes.
SWS Inceptions Code Blue.
Alex's pride and joy.
He has been described 3 times in 2 weeks that hes like a fine wine that gets better with age, and I tend to agree.
Blue is one special kid. Hes sassy, spunky, lazy, kind, dicky and everything in between but we couldn't imagian our team without him.
Blue wont be out as much this season but when he is it will be so enjoyable.
Along with Sinner, blue is also a multi supreme champion.
Blue has 4 beautiful children, 2 of which are owned by lil Oaks.
Blue is Alex's one in a million and always brings her so much joy.
04/10/2020
Horses all measured ready for our first show of the season. Roll on next weekend for a fun filled weekend of horses 🐴
22/09/2020
Do we really need to introduce him ..... 😂
Gemtime Rebals Lil Sinner
Hes beauty, hes grace, hes sass
Hes a one in a million.
Sinner is Shevelles pride and joy, and man on man are they a pleasure to watch.
Shev knew as soon as she saw photos of Sinner as a foal that he was that horse, that's horse that she couldn't picture her life without.
They have gone from strength to strength over the past 8 years.
Let's be honest we could talk about the handsome man all day.
Harness has become there zen, they both get so much joy trotting down the lane way on the farm and strutting there stuff in the show ring.
Sinner had his best ever season last season bringing home many garlands and titles.
We couldn't be more proud of what Sinner has achieved and were excited to see what's in store for him next.

BWK Na Dun Sinners Black Tie affair
Also known as poppet
Poppet is Gemtimes Lil Sinners only offspring and you only need to look at her to know who her daddy is.
She may be the smallest horse at Lil Oaks standing at around 28 inches but she makes up for that in attitude.
Pops hasnt got out into the show ring much but her biggest achievement is Champion foal at the South island foal show in 2015.
Poppet is deffinatly a one person horse who would follow Alex around all day just to get cuddles.
Her worst habit is chasing men our of her paddock 😂😂.
Pops is a special girl and will be with us forever, shes got the personality, looks and movement to win everyone over.
Like father like daughter.

!! Team introduction !!
Shevelle ... also known as Shev.
Well known for being mistaken to be Alex's mother or sister and also keeping her in line.
Chief organizer and prep queen.
The heart of the team.
Alex ... no nick name but will answer to anything.
Well known for being extremely unorganized but somehow getting her s**t together and making it into the ring looking like her morning was a walk in the park ...
We met each other coming up 8 years ago when Shev needed a hand in the show ring. A friend of ours connected us and we havent missed a season together since.
We have the same understanding and views on horses and training methods which makes us a great pair.
We have many great stories and memories together and we are excited for the next chapter in our horse world life.
Between Shev and Alex a 2 horse show team quickly turned into 8+.... realistically if we wanted to keep the little sanity we had left we needed to either downsize or find yourself a third amigo.
Brittany... Also answers to Britt, Chicky or the third amigo.
Well knowing for swimming when being thrown in the deep end, number 1 cheerleader and eating gluten at shows.
Brittany joined the squad November 2019 and has been so much help to us both. We honestly cant thank you enough for agreeing to become the 3rd blondie.
Thinking of a team/stud name is very difficult as we have found out but there are 2 horses who really bought Shev and Alex together. We took a snippet of each of there shows names and joint then together to make Lil Oaks miniature horses.
We look forward to the coming show season to see all our friends and celebrate each other successes.

Welcome to Lil Oaks Miniature Horses !!
We as a team believe in loving our horses first and foremost, they are part of our family and we will do anything for them.
We want our horses to enjoy there day to day lives by keeping there days enriched, whether this be a toy in their paddocks and friends to play with to a leisurely drive down the tracks.
As a show team we have a big passion for performance. This is enjoyed greatly because of the building blocks you have to form to gain trust from your horse.
We offer limited spaces for showing on behalf which includes the first building blocks of becoming performance horses. (This is currently full)
We are also lovers for making our horses look super pretty and hitting the show classes. Our love for this and performance has been what had bought this team together and what will drive out breeding in the coming years.
We love meeting new people and shows and enjoy watching people's successes.
