The Barn

We would like to formally introduce you all to “Don’t Jinx Me” AKA Jinx! Jinx is a 17h, 7 year old OTTB gelding. He has been started in eventing, completed rehabilitation through and has recently entered our training program. The next 60 days will determine whether he stays a lesson horse or will move on to his next, hopefully, forever home!
Rider:

Congratulations to Heather and Teagan on the purchase of Dani! We are so excited that his new home will be up in where he will pursue a jumping and lesson career! He could not have gone to a more caring family and we cannot wait to see him grow.

Congratulations to on winning a first and fourth in her dressage classes with Valerius as well as two second places in her Hunter classes with Jinx! We are so excited to see where these secretariat grand children will go! Another huge congrats to for placing second in all of her Jumper classes with Chaser! These two are quite the team and always so fun to watch!

Rider of the week goes to .equine there are a thousand and one reasons as to why she deserves this. Izzy consistently brings smiles to the barn and is always willing to lend a hand to help. She has been around the block when it comes to horse back riding but has recently been excelling in dressage. Here is a little background on Izzy!
“When I was about 12 years old I went to a horseback riding camp and fell in love. About 6 months later I began taking lessons with Erich and now almost 6 years later I ride dressage, english, and western. I love horses and riding. Horses have made me into the person I am today, and given me the confidence do to anything I put my mind to. Because of Erich, Amy, and everyone else at the barn I get the opportunity to ride many different horses and grow my riding skills. My favorite part about riding is the connection I feel between me and the horse, we have to work as a team or we won’t be successful.” Go give Izzy some support and follow .equine
