Partner N Crime

 Partner N Crime, every little girls dreams or at least mine anyway! I have much to credit to Partner, without him I wouldn't have half the achievements I have today, or the patience! Even now at 14 years old, he'll still throw in the occasional buck, just to let me know that the whole riding thing is his idea!

 

 

Training Partner was a journey all in itself. At 14 I didn't have a clue as how to train, plus with him training consisted of some serious reverse psychology, convincing him that it was his idea to turn a barrel, chase a cow, jump a course! I have to thank him for his patience in me and being as forgiving as he is.

Partners great achievement (as well as mine) was going to the NBHA World Show 3 years in a row! 

Snidely Whiplash

 Snidely came to join us in 2006 as a replacement for Partner in the rodeo arena.

Snidely is a finished barrel horse who not only was started on poles last year and won Reserve State Champion but who also ventured into the world of showing. He still has a ways to go before he can be as reliable at the show as Partner is.

Every time he entered the arena he was looking for a barrel. He's calmed down a lot since his first show that he practically did on his back legs. Even though Snidely has his quirks, I wouldn't trade him for all the money in the world, and will be a forever member of the family!

Lakota Moon

 Lakota is a very special mare, she's had more then her fair share of less then knowledgeable owners.

After close to two dozen different owners, she finally has a forever home. I want to thank Linda Perkins (a knowledgeable owner) who kindly allowed us to bring Lakota home.  

Lakota has had a  long hard life down in the states, including a bad roping accident, bring repossessed 3 times, and traveling from Las Vegas to Oregon to Colorado to Montana to Wyoming and then to Alaska.
 
When Lakota came to us she had a chronic rearing problem. After close to a year we were finally able to get Lakota past this. In 13 years nobody had taken the time to get her over her problem, but the truth is since she was from the states, there are just to many good horses to waste ones time with a problem horse, especially one that rears.
 
But happily ever afters do happen and now Lakota is happily enjoying her life just strolling down the trails and helping keep the grass in the pasture under control!

Skips With The Moon

 

Chic came to us in 2007 as a coming 3 year old who has the worst attitude in the world. She thought she was queen and when she was unable to get her way we had lots of tantrums that consisted of lots of rearing, striking out, and kicking.  After roughly thirty days riding and LOTS of ground work we kicked her back "out" and let her grow up some more. She turned 4 this year, so we brought her back into training and she has grown by leaps and bounds. She is a promising young barrel horse, but shows some serious potential for the hunter ring.

 

 

Who would have thought that the "rank" filly dubbed Lunachic AKA Chic would someday be carrying two 10-year old little girls on day long trail rides bareback, with only a halter and lead rope on.

Chic has progressed so much in her training that in the summer of 2010 Chic will be hauling to local schooling shows to compete and going to rodeos to be an exhibitioner.
