| Current Horses |
| Former Horses |
| She was leased by us and is now owned by Sarah Olajar. She is an Aristrocrat in the Arabian breed (mother of four or more champions). She is also the mother of RH Independence, the 2005 National Sport-Horse Reserve Champion in Training Level Dressage. |
| Ila's brother. I trained him a few years back. He is one of Impluse's champion babies. He is now owned by Lea Hehman |
| Born in April 2003, Ila is the daugher of Impulse and Manhattan. I waited long and hard for her. She is the future foundation mare for our Arabian breeding herd. |
| I trained and showed him a few years back. He has a new owner, Christian, now who has taken him all of the way to a National Sport Horse Championship. We are very proud of them both! |
| Gone on to Greener Pastures |
| In an effort to focus on our Arabian breeding program, we reluctantly sold Aurora. She is now owned by Julia. Her new family is very excited to get her as Aurora is being sold in foal. Her baby, due in April 2005, is a TB cross and should make a great warmblood/sport horse for Aurora's new family. |
| Flicka was my first horse. She died in 2001. She was 29 years old. Flicka was one of the best lesson horses and a really good friend as I grew up. I still miss her. |
| Alexandria was the only foal sired by RH Ishamael. She died 36 hours after her birth due to a combination of a freak accident and bloodpoisoning. She was perfect and beautiful, but obviously, God had other plans for her. |
| Assorted Horse Stuff |
| Bits Having a hard time finding a bit for your horse? Here's a story about how I found the answer to my problem. |
| Line-Breeding My little discourse on the concept of lind-breeding horses. |
| Breeding Philosophy My humble opinion on when and why to breed horses. . |
| Rhune CDLC was born May 15, 2005. She's is the daughter of Ruby Slipper (RH Galway Bey X Impala of Rohan) and sired by AA Manhattan. She's a lovely little filly who it turning out to be quite tall. |
| OP is our most recent addition. We got her in Dec. of 2006 as a saddle horse for our Daughter Oni (hence the name). OP is of undetermined origin and breeding, and is about 11 year old (our best guess). She's a very good pony. |
 |
| He was our "suprise" baby out of Aurora. He is turning into a really nice saddle horse. Sadly, due to unforceen cercumstances,we sold Chakotay in Dec. 2007 to Taye. He is enjoying his new home and now goes by "Chuck". |
| Ruby Slipper is a mare we leased for a couple of years. I trained her to ride in exchange for breeding rights. She is the mother of Rhune CDLC. |
