Meet Our Horses:

These friendly equestrians are the reason we do what we do.  Below are just a few of the horses and ponies we have.  Check back often as we continue to add more!

The Lesson Committee:

Bubbles In A Bottle, "Bubbles" (below) is a eleven year old, top of the line small Welsh cross pony mare.  She is owned by Leanne and is one of the best producing broodmares on the farm.  She has had four foals to date.  Her first two by Triple Hill, and her third and fourth offspring by Fox Cry Rose Cummerbund.  Bubbles has passed her fabulous temperament, willing attitude and friendly personality on to all her children.  They have all been wonderful to work with, quiet and very easy to train.  Which has been proven in her first two offspring as they have been started under saddle.  After taking the last year off Bubbles has been brought 'back to work' and is helping to teach beginner riders at Flying Change PHP.

Triple Treat, "Coco" is a lovely 2005 crossbred pony out of our beloved broodmare "Bubbles" and by "Triple Hill" a leading pony sire in the US.  Coco has been started under saddle in the spring of 2008, by Brandon Hill and is turning into a wonderful boy.  He has a wonderful quiet personality and a very willing attitude.  He competed in his first hunter show and took everything in stride and brought home several ribbons.  Coco is becoming a quick favorite with the children and we look for him to do great things in the future! Congratulations to his new owner Julianna Bona!  Coco is already filling her wall with ribbons!

Lemon, "Lemon" is a middle aged Quarter horse gelding that came to us in the Spring of 2009.  He is currently on loan and enjoys helping out with the lesson program.  His specialty is beginners!! He is also a well rounded guy and helps with Western pleasure, teaching kids to canter, jumps small crossrails, and his all time favorite thing to do is.... help with the trail rides!  He is very quiet natured guy, and a favorite with several students!  He is welcome in our field anytime!

T.M. Doc Doodles, "Doc Doodles" (below), has been a welcome addition to our list of horses.   He has been with us for about three years and will not be going anywhere.  Doodles is one of those multi-taskers with his quiet and patient temperament and on a weekly basis his job includes helping with lead liners, trail rides, western pleasure, pony rides here and there, babysitter for the foals and his favorite jumping. He has also help so many riders get their first ribbons in the show ring and has even competed in cross country and jumper classes!  So if you ever come to the farm to visit please be sure to bring Doodles a carrot or a peppermint (those are his favorite!)  He has been a wonderful blessing and  we are blessed to have him join our family and friends.  I think he will be starting up his own fan club...check back later for details!

Kirby (below), is an aged Standardbred gelding.  He came to us in the fall of 2007 from an old friend of mine.  Although I am not a fan of the breed, Kirby is so sweet and quiet that I couldn't pass him up.  He is quickly becoming a top favorite with the children at the barn and even the adults!  He like Doodles is a multi-tasker, he loves to trail ride, jump, go cross country and be fussed with.  Kirby has several championship ribbons in Jumpers and Cross Country.  He currently has three year end championships for 2009 at Swan Lake in Puddle Jumpers, and Shadowbrook in Puddle & Hopeful Jumpers, piloted by Brandon Hill.

Just Enuf Scribbles, Fancy is an older Paint mare that has been helping out with the lessons for several years.  In her prime Fancy was shown and placed at the World Paint Show in Western Pleasure and Trail classes.  She has since retired to helping students start their show career at the local levels.  She still assist with Western Pleasure, Trail, English Pleasure, Lead line and will occasionally take a beginner on a trail ride around the farm.  We love her quiet gentle personality and the kids get a kick out of the silly habit she has of playing with her tongue!

Impress Me Gunnin, "Gunner" is a seven year old Paint gelding that was rescued from an Auction over the 2008 summer.  When Gunner joined us he was a mess! Skinny, severely sun burnt and had all kinds of cuts on his body.  The abuse he suffered before he came to the farm, however had no effect on his personality.  He has quickly become another favorite with his quiet temperament and unique looks!  In the short time since he has been with us he has helped several students get their first championship ribbons! The judges seem to like him just as much as the children, he has placed nearly first in every class he has been shown in! We look for him to be here for many years to come!

Cappuccino, "Chino" is a ten year old top of the line large pony.  Chino was hand raised by me  (his mother died before he was a month old.)  Because of this unfortunate event Chino ended up more like a dog than a person.  Chino was sold at the start of my business as I didn't think he would fit into my lesson program at the time.  I did keep in contact with his owners over the years, and in the summer of 2009 I had the chance to get him back and jumped on it.  Chino seems to be very happy and right at home and loves all the excitement and attention he gets.  We have taken him to a few shows and he somewhat manages to get down to business and was Reserve Champion in a Novice Jumper division in August 2009!  He has settled down from how he was as a youngster and assisted with camp and helps with lessons, although he still has a silly fun loving attitude that everyone seems to get a kick out of!

"MY GIRLS" 

Fox Cry Gadabout "Lena" is every little girl's dream pony! She is a registered Section B Welsh filly with wonderful bloodlines.  She was purchased from our dear friend Adele Bailey.  Lena has started her show career in 2006  with a bang, she ended the season finishing first for two year old fillies!!  She was 2007, 2008 & 2009 Maryland state Reserve champion mare on both Welsh day and Hunter breeding. She is one in a million!  She is the princess of the barn and certainly plays the part. She has been started lightly under saddle in the fall of 2007 but due to unfortunate accident she has joined the broodmare band. She had a lovely grey filly FC Minuet born May 2009, who like her mother has been a star in the show ring!! Occasionally Lena will pack a kid around the ring for fun, and even brought home a Reserve Champion in Mini Stirrup!    Click here to view her pedigree!

Davric Matilda "Tilly" (below) is a 10 year old registered Section A welsh mountain mare owned by Leanne.  We are very excited to add her to our broodmares.  She has been a broodmare most of her life and has also be shown a few times.  She was Champion at Penn Marydel as a two year old, along with some other wins in her short career.  She is a very pretty roan who also produced a lovely chestnut filly  FC Gingerbread Baby in April by  Brookside Megastar, a 1998 Canadian Champion.   Tilly gave birth to a lovely bay roan colt by Fox Cry Rose Cummerbund , she is back in foal to him for a 2010 foal!  We would like to thank Straubairy Acres for allowing us to purchase her!  Look for her babies in the future!

"Foxy" (below) is a 5 year old dark bay Thoroughbred mare that came to us from a farm that was finding homes for their lesson horses.  I went to see her and when the woman told me she was used for beginner lessons. I rolled my eyes, not too many young horses work for beginners, and especially TB mares!  She has by far exceed my expectations.  She is the SWEETEST mare I have ever met and has quickly found a spot in my heart.  She has to make sure whenever anyone is in the field that she comes over to visit with them.  My only complaint is her size, she is HUGE.  Currently stands 16.2 and a 1/2 and is built like a tank!  Not only sweet but she is a darling to ride and she takes everything is stride!  She is a must see when you visit the farm.  Click here to view her pedigree!

Pacific Peggie "Lana" is a 2005 black Thoroughbred mare that was rescued in the fall of 2009.  She is a lovely small mare, perfect for our breeding program.  Exceptional temperament, conformation and a very nice mover!! Lana like most of my others came skinny and covered in rain rot.  She  has gained a bunch of weight and a beautiful rich coat has replaced her rain rot.  She has been started under saddle and will be ridden until she joins our broodmare band in the spring of 2010.  We look for her and Nick to produce a Fancy "black" hunter pony in 2011, I can't wait!!  Pictures coming soon!

Rosmel Felicity "Felicity"is a 2002 registered section B mare by the famous Rosmel Quadrille out of Rosmel Copper Penny.  Felicity has some of the best names in the Welsh breed in her pedigree. Her foals are very fancy, easy to train and well suited for children.  She is a shy but kind medium mare with nice conformation and great movement.  She is currently bred to Llhaven Khatman for a 2010 foal.  She will be bred to one of our stallions for a 2011 foal.

Wicklyn's Emerald Isle "Erin" is a 1998 registered section B mare by Lemontree Sea Captain out of Findeln Emerald.  Erin had a successful show career on the hunter circuit for several years before being retired as a broodmare.  She is a lovely large medium mare with excellent conformation, bone and a wonderful sweet temperament.  She is the official greeter for the farm!!  Erin is in foal to Fox Cry Rose Cummerbund for a 2011 foal.  We would like to thank Susan Wick for giving us the opportunity to own such a wonderful mare.

Cymraeg Applause "Applause" is a lovely registered section B welsh mare by  Cymraeg Rain Beau out of Cross Roads Three Cheers.  Applause sire Rain Beau is well known for being one of the leading hunter pony sires in the US.  Applause has been a consistent producer, always passing along fabulous looks, conformation and exceptional movement.  Applause is currently in foal to Pengywn for a April 2010 foal.  We feel very fortunate to own this wonderful mare and look forward to seeing what she produces with our stallions.  We would like to thank Susan Wick!
