Meet Our Horses
We offer lessons, co-boarding & showing opportunities with our awesome horses.
JXL Blue Sabre "Cody"
Cody 22 year old AQHA gelding and Rock Star! He has been with me since he was a green broke 2 year old. Cody is a jack of all trades with experience in western performance, gaming, ultimate trail, trick riding, vaulting, trail rides, cattle work, jumps (just for fun) and loves to go swimming. He is a summer camp fav, and loves all the treats he can get. He has partnered with many kids starting them off in the show pen, and won many club show and fall fair ribbons, awards, buckles, a saddle, and high points for his riders.
​
Tonka Hollywood Bar "Woody"
​
Our tall dark and handsome 18 year AQHA gelding. Woody has a love for all things speed, turn'n and burn! His versatility knows no bounds working cattle, reining, liberty, trick riding and a pro on the obstacle course and jumps. A little more forward moving with his big powerful strides, he's such a good boy in our summer camp and lessons programs with the the kids that want to learn to go a little faster.

​
Utopia's Rainbow "Rain"
​
Our drama queen, show diva turns 12 this year. Out of our very own Roxy (APHA), and sired by Bolt (tri colour buckskin sire, son of stormy). Rain is a lessons and summer camp fav. Her sassy temperment, flashy look, and solid build she is sure to catch your attention. Watch out for this stunning lady in halter classes! Experienced in all thing western performance, trail, reining, obstacles, and turning into quite the little gamer. A new addition to our vaulting program in canter classes
​
Dallas
What a character this 26 year old Paint x Arabian gelding is with tones of personality. Another lessons and camps favourite, . This boy has really done a little bit of everything. Loads of experience competing in MANY, MANY club shows, fairs, OBRA, jackpots and rodeo events in western performance, english, jumping, trail. He's a fun ride out on trails, or a champ through the obstacle course, an amazing trick riding partner, and occasionally vaulting team fill in. Oh man can he pull a toboggan in the winter, hang on tight!

Cookie
Our big beautiful Cookie Mama, is a solid 17 year old pinto x Belgian mare. This gorgeous girl is part of our vaulting team. She has such a loving in your face personality, and is like a big puppy dog. She loves all the hugs, treats and attention from our summer vaulting camps and year round clinics. She's broke to drive. Although we have tried multiple times to include her in our riding endevours, she has made it clear that she prefers to be a lunge line horse lol, and we are happy to do so.

Peppy's Shining Lady "Gracie" ​
​
Gorgeous 22 year old AQHA palomino mare. An amazing horse from GC Performance horses. This talented lady is truly an amazing partner in the show ring. With training in reining, cow horse and ranch classes this versatile mare is a champ in the show pen. Teaching the kiddos in performance lessons, camps, trail rides, and a pro in the trail ring.
Advanced Star Lena "Dillon"​
23 year old AQHA gelding, comes from a reining cow horse back round. Although he was left unridden for many years it didn't take long to get this boy back to his roots. A versatile sweetheart in lessons, camps, and shows. With experience in western performance, games, obstacles, trail riding, and anything we through his way.
Reba
Our cute Lil 26 year old AQHA mare. Reba has come to us not to retire but to live and love her life with the kids. No stranger to the show pen this good old girl is a master in showmanship and performance classes. A wonderful teacher for our littles who need a little slower and very smooth walk/jog pace.
Ginger
Miss mare faced 28 year old APHA dressage trained. Ginger & Reba are best pals and are often attached at the hip. This lovely old girl is enjoying her easy lifestyle with the odd ride from one of our little people in lessons or camps. She loves all the treats and bubble bathes she can get and enjoying her semi retirement.
Big On Style "Mr. Cash Man"
New to our barn family and already making a great impression. Cash is a 16 year old AQHA gelding. This solid good looking boy is a trail riding master. He is currently learning the finer "buttons" in western riding, but will sure be a great addition to our lessons and camp programs.
In Memory Of...
Somewhere in time's own space, there must be some sweet pasture place, where creeks sing on and tall grass grows, some paradise where horses go, for by the love that guides my pen I know great horses live again. ~Stanley Harrison
​
We are lucky to have the privilege of working with such great animals. It is a sad part of life that we can't always spend more time with them. We would like to honour those who have moved on to their sweet pasture place. Forever in our hearts.
