We offer lessons, co-boarding & showing opportunities with our awesome horses.
JXL Blue Sabre "Cody"
Cody 21 year old AQHA gelding and Rock Star. He has been with me since he was a green broke 2 year old. This boy is no stranger to the show ring, starting out as a barrel horse, he is now one of our very popular lessons & camp horses with the kids & showing. Cody is a true all round gentleman 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 ribbons, awards, buckles, a saddle, and high points for his young riders.

Tonka Hollywood Bar "Woody"
​
Our tall dark and handsome 17 year AQHA gelding. Woody has a love for all things speed, turn'n and burn! His versatility is great working cattle, reining, liberty, trick riding and a pro on the obstacle course and jumps. A little more forward, he's a good boy in our summer camp and lessons programs with the the kids that want to learn to go a little faster.

Our drama queen, show diva turns 11 this year. Out of our very own Roxy (APHA), and sired by Bolt (tri coloured buckskin stud, 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 the halter classes! Experienced in all thing western performance, trail, reining, obstacles, and turning into quite the little gamer.

Dallas
What a character this 25 year old Paint x arabian gelding is 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 16 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 even learning how to hitch up and pull the wagon with Peanut together they are "PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE" 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.

VOTED Dungannon Horse Show's 2024 Most Popular Horse
Advanced Star Lena "Dillon"​
22 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.
Windancers Legacy "Reba"
A new face to the barn family is a sassy red head, Reba an 19yr old APHA mare. A rescue horse we brought home to give a better chance at life. She comes with a story, and some baggage, but has made really good progress in her time of healing and training with us. Joining us in some intermediate camps, beginner lead line lessons and schooling shows. She is your typical moody mare, and definitely picks her favorite people.
​
We arn't sure the lessons barn life is the right fit for her, and feel she would be better suited with one rider to be her person. If your interested in coming to try her out and buy reba I am open to having that conversation. She will say in work and introduced to showing until she finds the right fit for her. She is also available for a co-boading opportunity.
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.
