Callie and Kiss

The saddle was way too small for her, but Callie still managed to take Kiss for a spin.  Then we took the saddle off & Callie had a much better time riding bareback.  Unfortunately we failed to capture the bareback ride, but Callie said she much preferred that.  Callie & Kiss make a good looking team!  This was Callie's first time riding a gaited horse, but she & Kiss made it look as easy as it is!

Lying in the sun...

This is an old picture of our two Spotted Saddle Horse geldings when they were much younger.  They are full brothers & share the same, easy going attitude.  The trainer saddled & rode each one within a matter of minutes after their arrival at his place.  Neither had ever been 'sacked out' with a blanket let alone saddled.

Bella and Mystic

This is a photo of Bella B. Walker being ridden by Mystic back in October.  Bella is a double registered RMHA/KMSHA broodmare/trailhorse.  Bella has done it all...from the show ring to the trail to pulling a buggy  to raising babies ... all with style & a great disposition.

Rocky Mountain filly

This is Bella's 4 year old filly "Choco Latte".  It's time to start the training process, but I don't anticipate any problems.  Rocky Mtn. horses are known for their gentle, puppy-dog dispositions as well as their easy gaits.

2011 Caspian filly, Shovan's Finale

This foal is our newest Caspian:  Shovan's Finale.  She was born back in May & is now currently being weaned from her mama, Chinchilla.  She was weaned by the proper Moon sign according to The Old Farmer's Almanac --- & so far the timing seems to have paid off since she's adjusting pretty well to life without mama.
