🎃🐷 Our Farm Family Is Ready to Take a BITE Out of Halloween! 🐐🐑🐓

Halloween might be over soon, but the fun doesn’t have to end for our animals! ❤️

Here at PGF Equine & Safe Haven Sanctuary, our little farm family has a special request for you! Our Kune Kune pigs, chickens, goats and sheep would be absolutely thrilled to help you get rid of those leftover Halloween pumpkins! 🎃

Instead of tossing your spooky jack-o’-lanterns in the garbage, why not give them a second purpose and bring a little happiness to some very deserving animals?

From happy piggy snorts to excited little farm faces, your pumpkins can bring so much joy around here! 🐷🐐🐑🐓

🎃 We are happily accepting leftover pumpkins!

We just ask that they be free of paint, glitter, candles, wax and decorations, and not rotten or mouldy.

♻️ Less waste, full bellies and lots of happy farm animals!

Thank you for always thinking of our animals and finding little ways to make their days brighter. Every pumpkin is appreciated more than you know! 🎃❤️🐾

❤️🐴 TEAM PGF — BUILT ON PASSION, DEDICATION & TEAMWORK! 🐴❤️

As we reflect on the 2026 barrel racing season, I couldn’t be more proud of our Team PGF riders and everything they have accomplished!

This season has been about so much more than fast times, placings and accomplishments. It’s been about growth, perseverance, sportsmanship and the incredible partnerships our riders continue to build with their horses.

Our riders have shown time and time again that their horses’ well-being comes first, that hard work matters and that success is measured by so much more than what happens inside the arena.

What makes me most proud is the team we are building. A team that celebrates each other’s wins, encourages one another through the tough runs and understands that every horse and rider has their own journey.

We’ve always believed that our greatest competition is the rider we were yesterday. Our focus isn’t on keeping up with anyone else or proving anything to anyone. It’s about continuing to grow, setting our own standards and letting our dedication speak for itself.

Along the way, we’ve learned that when you’re building something special, people will notice. Some may draw inspiration from what you’re doing, and I choose to take that as a compliment. ❤️

We don’t need to be the loudest in the room to make an impact. We simply need to stay true to who we are, support our riders and continue doing what we love.

To our Team PGF riders, I hope you know just how proud I am of each and every one of you. Not just for your accomplishments, but for your character, your commitment to your horses and the way you represent this team.

Our success isn’t defined by anyone else’s journey. It’s defined by the team we continue to build together.

❤️ TEAM PGF — STRONGER TOGETHER, ALWAYS. 🐎
Bring on 2027 ❤️

❤️🐴 MEET MEADOW! 🌸

Sometimes a horse just catches your eye at an auction!

Meet “Jenny,” now known as Meadow, a sweet bay mare said to be a 6-year-old Thoroughbred.

One shoe on, the other long gone, a few old fence scars on her hind leg and a little light on groceries. She’s certainly not emaciated, but some good feed and a little love will do her wonders! ❤️

What caught my attention was her disposition. In a busy sale ring, she quietly allowed a small child to ride her, flip over her back and walk around in nothing more than a halter.

After a little back-and-forth bidding, the gavel fell, and she was coming home to PGF Equine!

Before loading, she drank half a bucket of water and hopped right onto the trailer without hesitation.

Not knowing if Jenny was her original name, we decided Meadow suited her just fine. 🌸

I’ve always believed auctions can be great places to find amazing horses. Over half our barn consists of auction purchases or horses from rehabilitation situations, and many have become wonderful partners.

Horses come through those sale rings in all shapes and conditions, each with a story we may never know.

For now, Meadow’s agenda is simple: good groceries, a little TLC and time to settle in.

Looking forward to getting to know this sweet bay mare!

Welcome to PGF Equine, Meadow! ❤️

🏇❤️ SYDNEY & TT — WHAT A FIRST RODEO SEASON! ❤️🏇

From big dreams to RAM RODEO FINALS! 🏆

When Sydney Willdig and Annie’s Lil Spook (TT) entered their first rodeo season, little did Sydney know they would qualify for the RAM Rodeo Finals in BOTH Youth Barrels and Youth Poles!

Excelling in poles and climbing the barrel standings from 12th to 6th, then finishing 2nd in the finals average! What an incredible accomplishment for this team! ❤️

This weekend was about more than times and placings. Watching these youth competitors cheer each other on, build friendships and show such amazing sportsmanship was truly something special!

For those watching from the sidelines, rodeo is tougher than it may appear! Every discipline has its challenges, but rodeo brings a different kind of pressure. Unlike divisional barrel racing formats such as NBHA, rodeo only gives you ONE shot in each event to make it count.

Higher entry fees, long travel for approximately 37 seconds of arena time for a two-event cowgirl, and only the top six fastest times earning a cheque — sometimes separated by hundredths of a second!

Add in the challenge of adapting to different arena sizes and setups, where a winning barrel time might range from 13 to 18 seconds, and you quickly realize just how much skill, trust and grit these horse-and-rider teams need. A time on paper never tells the whole story!

🏆 A HUGE congratulations to ALL Top 8 Youth Ram Finalists in barrels and poles! Ladies, some of the times you laid down this weekend would have given the adult competitors a run for their money! What an amazing group of talented young cowgirls!

Sending lots of love and wishes for speedy recoveries to Paige and Ashley! ❤️

To all the finalists, take that well-deserved break, love up those incredible equine partners and be proud of how far you’ve come! The friendships, memories and lessons learned this weekend are worth just as much as the wins.

Congratulations again, Sydney & TT! What a way to finish your first rodeo season! ❤️🏆

❤️ TO ALL OUR TEAM PGF RIDERS — WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU! ❤️

As we close out the 2026 season, we want every one of our riders to know just how proud we are of their accomplishments.

Not everyone ran the full rodeo circuit this season, and everyone’s journey looked a little different. Some were just starting out, some were building new partnerships, and others were chasing personal goals.

But one thing is certain — we didn’t have a single rider who didn’t give it their all!

Whether you competed at one rodeo or chased the circuit all season, your determination, hard work and dedication never went unnoticed.

At PGF Equine, success isn’t measured only in cheques, buckles or standings. It’s measured in growth, horsemanship, sportsmanship and the heart you bring into that arena.

Every single one of you gave us something to be proud of this season, and we couldn’t ask for a better group of riders representing Team PGF! ❤️

Enjoy some much-needed downtime with your horses, celebrate your accomplishments and get ready for another exciting year!

A special thank-you goes to Coach Cierra for the time, dedication and care you give to each of your riders individually. Your experience and expertise shine through in every student you teach. You teach them to ride for the horse’s needs, not their own, helping each rider develop patience, awareness, balance and true horsemanship.

Stay Humble ❤️

See you all in 2027! 🏇🔥

🏇❤️ TEAM PGF — WHAT A 2026 SEASON! ❤️🏇

We are less than 2 DAYS AWAY from the RAM Rodeo Finals! 🏆

First, a HUGE congratulations to Sydney Willdig and Annie’s Lil Spook on qualifying for the finals in BOTH Youth Barrels and Youth Poles!

🔥 Heading into finals:
🏆 Youth Poles — #1
🏆 Youth Barrels — #6

What an incredible accomplishment! Sydney !

❤️ LET’S TALK ABOUT TEAM PGF’S 2026 SEASON! ❤️

What a season it has been! We have had our fair share of challenges, including unexpected horse and rider changes due to an injury early in the season. But if there’s one thing our riders have proven, it’s that they know how to adapt, overcome and keep chasing their goals!

🐴 Savannah Gillespie — Revvy & Gracie
Savannah stepped up and rode both Revvy and Gracie this season, accomplishing so much along the way! Her growth and success with Gracie were incredible to watch. Sometimes the unexpected changes bring out the best in a rider . Savannah will be introducing her horse Willow in 2027 to the rodeo pen .

🐴 Lily Graham — Revvy
Lily and Revvy spent August competing together, and just as these two were finding their groove, the season came to an end! Their partnership was really starting to shine. Keep your eyes on these two in 2027!

🐴 Madison Osborne — Georgia
Madison and Georgia took their talents all the way to the High School Rodeo Championships, proudly representing Ontario, Canada and PGF Equine! Madison carried herself with pride, grace and sportsmanship. What an accomplishment!

🐴 Payton Easson — Sadie
Payton spent this season introducing Sadie to the rodeo world! Our one-eyed wonder was once a trail horse, and together they tackled the challenges of barrels, and a whole new environment. Payton’s patience, dedication and love for her horse are something truly special. It’s not always about the clock; sometimes the biggest victories are the ones you can’t measure!

🐴 Maddy Fulton — Pudge
Maddy and Pudge had a fantastic season competing on the High School Rodeo circuit! Congratulations on your first successful season with your boy! The partnership you have built is something to be proud of, and we can’t wait to see what comes next!

🐴 Leigh Bray — Kali & Tessa
Leigh qualified for the High School Rodeo Championships with Kali and Tessa but made the decision to sit that trip out .They achieved some beautiful hardware AKA belt buckles this season .Watch out for this trio in 2027!

🐴 Aislynn Agnew — Tilly
One of our newest competitive partnerships! Aislynn and Tilly stepped into the barrel racing world and showed just what determination, confidence and hard work can accomplish. For their first few shows together, they were phenomenal!

🐴 Finleigh — Sophie
Our little firecracker Finleigh and her girl Sophie joined the competition scene this season, and what a fantastic start! These two have so much heart, personality and potential. We are so excited to watch their journey continue!

❤️ AND THAT’S A WRAP ON TEAM PGF’S 2026 SEASON! ❤️

Well, almost! We still have one final rodeo to cheer for!

To every rider who represented PGF Equine this season, we are proud of EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU!

Not every run was perfect. Not every pole or barrel stayed standing. Not every plan went the way we expected. But every single rider learned, grew and accomplished something worth celebrating.

At PGF, success isn’t measured by buckles, or the fastest clock. It’s measured by horsemanship, sportsmanship, dedication, kindness and the willingness to keep trying when things don’t go as planned.

A huge thank you to our incredible parents, families and supporters who make these dreams possible, and to Coach Cierra for her dedication to developing confident riders and capable horses.

And of course, to all our amazing equine partners who give their hearts in and out of the arena. ❤️

Sydney and Annie’s Lil Spook, it’s your time to shine at the RAM Rodeo Finals! We will be cheering you on every step of the way!

Here’s to an unforgettable 2026 season and an even bigger 2027!

TEAM PGF — STAY HUMBLE & GRITTY! 🤠❤️🏇

🚨🏆 FREE TO A GOOD HOME… PREFERABLY SOMEWHERE IN MONTANA! 🏆🚨

Introducing not ONE, but TWO incredibly handsome geldings who have apparently decided that DESTROYING FENCING SHOULD BE AN OLYMPIC SPORT! 🥇🐎🐎

And let me tell you, these two would be bringing home the GOLD! 🏅

⚡ Hot wire? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!

🪵 Rail fencing? CHILD’S PLAY!

🚧 10-foot fencing? HOLD MY HAY!

You name it, these two have either gone through it, over it, under it, or left it in their rearview mirror like it was never there!

Meanwhile, I’m over here wondering if I should just hand them a hammer and let them finish the demolition job properly. 🔨🤦‍♀️

People keep telling me to find the humour in farm life…

UMMMM… WHERE EXACTLY IS THE FUNNY PART?! 🤬😂

At this point, I’ve decided these two would be BEST SUITED FOR THE WIDE-OPEN RANGES OF MONTANA! 🤠

I’m talking 3,000 PLUS HECTARES of nothing but wide-open country where they can roam until their little hearts are content and hopefully NEVER FIND ANOTHER FENCE TO MESS WITH!

Just grass, mountains, fresh air and absolutely NOTHING for them to demolish!

Although, knowing these two, they’d probably travel the entire 3,000 hectares just to locate the ONE fence standing and knock it down for entertainment! 🤦‍♀️🤣

🥇 Gold medal: BOTH OF THEM.

💰 Prize money: ZERO.

💸 Fencing repair bills: DON’T EVEN ASK!

SO… OFFERING TWO HANDSOME, PROFESSIONAL FENCE-DESTROYING GELDINGS FREE TO ANYONE WITH A MONTANA RANCH! 😂

Must have unlimited patience, a sense of humour and preferably NO FENCES!

🤫 SHHHHH… DON’T TELL THEIR OWNERS! They might disapprove of me giving away their precious little angels!

Sincerely,

One very irritated farm owner who is ONE BROKEN FENCE away from packing THEIR bags and sending THEM to wild and free in Montana! 🤣🐴

P.S. This is a joke… mostly. Ask me again after Farmer fixes the next fence! 😂

🐴🐮❤️ TEAM PGF IS HITTING A DIFFERENT ARENA TODAY! ❤️🐮🐴

Today, our very own Madison Osborne is trading in the barrels and poles for the cattle show ring as she showcases her cow at the Norwood Fair! 🐄🏆

Madison is truly a multi-talented competitor! From barrel racing and pole bending to the world of bovine competitions, this young lady proves that her passion, dedication and hard work go far beyond the rodeo arena!

We are incredibly proud of Madison and the commitment she puts into everything she does. Whether she’s in the saddle or leading her cow into the show ring, she gives it her all!

At PGF, we love seeing our riders branch out, challenge themselves and pursue their passions in all areas of agriculture and competition.

Best of luck today, Madison! We are so proud of the young lady you are becoming and can’t wait to cheer you on in yet another arena! ❤️

Stay Humble & Gritty! 🤠❤️

🏇❤️ CONGRATULATIONS TEAM PGF! ❤️🏇

What a fantastic day for Team PGF! From horses making their very first appearance in the show pen to teams with only a few months of barrel racing under their belts, today was a true representation of what our farm and team stand for!

What made me the proudest wasn’t the placings or the times. It was watching our girls support one another, laugh together, cheer each other on and genuinely enjoy every moment.

Not once did I hear an excuse for a less-than-perfect run or a downed barrel. And that right there speaks volumes about the character of these young ladies!

As any rider should know, if every run were perfect, what would you have left to work toward? There is always something to learn, something to improve and another goal to chase.

At PGF, we celebrate every run as though it could be our last. We don’t pretend that every run throughout the season has been flawless. We share the good, the bad and the downright “OH NO!” moments! 😂 That’s part of the journey, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with being proud of your accomplishments while also sharing the hiccups along the way.

Be proud. Take pride in your horse, your hard work and your accomplishments. Most importantly, enjoy the journey!

Our girls continue to be phenomenal ambassadors for the sport, and I couldn’t be prouder of the sportsmanship, humility and grit they bring both into and out of the arena. ❤️

🏆 NEXT STOP — RAM FINALS, ANCASTER!

Next weekend, a few of our team members will be heading to Ancaster to cheer on Sydney and TT as they compete at the RAM Finals! We are excited to support this team as they wrap up their season!

Now, I won’t lie… this old girl is getting tired! 😂 Between the early mornings, late nights, hauling, cheering and everything in between, I’m starting to feel a little like our horses after a long season. It’s time for a much-needed break from the rodeo and show circuit!

Unfortunately, we all know what comes with that break…

The dreaded “S” word… SNOW! ❄️😂❄️

And I’m certainly not ready for that part!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out today to support and cheer on Team PGF. We laughed, we cheered, we celebrated, and most importantly, WE HAD FUN!

❤️🐴 And we had one extra-special little spectator today!

Our adorable Kelly-James attended his very first barrel race, overseeing a few of mom’s students and taking in all the excitement! 😉❤️

Something tells me this little cowboy has a pretty exciting future ahead of him! I can’t wait for the day we get to watch him make his own entrance into the arena. From what I hear, roping and saddle bronc are already on the agenda! 😂🤠

Look out, rodeo world, there’s another little cowboy growing up in the PGF family! ❤️

At the end of the day, the fast times and placings are wonderful, but the friendships, memories, lessons and laughter are what will stay with these kids long after the season ends.

And if there’s one thing I hope every one of our riders takes away from this season, it’s that success isn’t always measured by a clock, a cheque or a buckle. Sometimes the biggest victories are the ones nobody else sees.

Stay Humble & Gritty, Team PGF! ❤️🐴

So incredibly proud of every one of you!

🍁🧡 HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM OUR PGF EQUINE FAMILY! 🧡🍁

As we head into Thanksgiving weekend and another exciting weekend in the arena, we can’t help but reflect on just how much we have to be thankful for. ❤️🐴

This weekend, we are cheering on some pretty special teams!

🐴 Savannah & Gracie
🐴 Lily & Revvy
🐴 Payton & Sadie
🐴 Aislynn & Tilly
🐴 Finleigh & Sophie
🐴 Sydney & Cutter — making their first soft debut together in the arena with her up-and-coming horse! We are so excited to watch this new partnership grow. ❤️

But Thanksgiving is about so much more than the horses, the ribbons, the buckles and the rodeos.

It’s about the incredible kids we are blessed to have walk through our barn doors. The ones we get to introduce to the wonderful world of rodeo, watch build confidence, overcome challenges, chase dreams and grow into amazing young people.

It’s about the parents who sacrifice their weekends, endure the early mornings and late nights, drive countless miles and stand along the fence cheering, whether their child has the fastest run or simply accomplishes a personal goal. Your dedication never goes unnoticed.

It’s about Coach Cierra, who pours her heart, passion, knowledge and experience into every horse and rider she works with. She has a special ability to see potential, build confidence and bring out the very best in both horse and rider. Her dedication goes far beyond an hour in the saddle, and we are incredibly thankful for everything she brings to PGF Equine. ❤️

And of course, a HUGE thank you to our Farmer, Darrin! ❤️🚜

The man behind the scenes who doesn’t always get the recognition he deserves. From feeding horses, making hay, grooming arenas, fixing what breaks, hauling and keeping this entire operation moving, his days are long and his to-do list never ends. Those are just a few of the countless things he does to make all of this possible.

Without everyone playing their part, none of this would be possible.

Have we had ups and downs? Absolutely! There have been tears, frustrations, setbacks, lessons learned and moments that have tested us all. But there have also been unforgettable memories, friendships, laughter, accomplishments and moments that remind us exactly why we do what we do.

Not every season is easy, not every run is perfect and not every dream happens overnight. But every experience teaches us something, and through it all, we have so much to be grateful for.

We are thankful for the horses that teach us patience, the kids who remind us to dream big, the parents who believe in our program and the people who continue to support our little barn family.

At PGF Equine, we aren’t just building barrel racers and pole benders. We are building confidence, character, friendships and memories that will last a lifetime.

From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁🦃❤️

Stay Humble & Gritty! 🐴❤️

— Your PGF Equine Family
