SALE HORSES
ABOUT US
We are a boutique sales barn. When you are shopping for your next partner, whether that be your next upper-level prospect, or just simply your next best friend, know that when you come here you are getting a different approach and a thoughtful process in which I choose horses for my barn.
OUR PROCESS
We have a lengthy process in which we choose our horses. These are all horses I have personally gone and hand-picked. I will not purchase a horse off of a video, I don’t purchase horses off of online adds, and unless I go personally see the horse, and unless it checks off all my boxes, I don’t purchase it for re-sale. I don’t vet everything, however if I question anything, or see that the horse has more than a few starts, I vet before I purchase- longevity is what I am aiming for. Horses that will have a nice long life and a good long career for their next person.
WHAT DO WE LOOK FOR?
First and foremost, temperament. I look for horses with a nice kind eye, and a genuine disposition.
Second thing we look for is soundness and conformation. I look for horses that are correct. A good mover with 3 nice gaits. Often times before purchasing I will see them work under tack, which also helps me make good decisions and gives me a further evaluation of what I may be purchasing.
Third and most importantly, I am looking for a horse that I like to look at, and a horse that makes me smile. Something that makes him/her unique in its own way. Maybe is a bit of a goof or just a love bug, but something that makes them special. For me this is personal. I have spent my life with horses, and I really love when I walk in the barn and see uniqueness in beautiful ways. A horse that strums on my heart strings a bit, and a horse that is happy to see their human. I think that goes a long way, and if you have a horse that just doesn’t give a damn, then you’re basically setting yourself up for failure.
Since we run on a much smaller and more personal scale, we believe in having new horses here for at least 30 days before listing them for sale. That time allows me to assess the quality of the horse and helps us match our horses with the right people for long term success.
OUR POLICIES
We operate on a first come, first serve basis. Prices of horses are subject to change at any time.
Jenson
Jenson is a 6yo 16.2 gelding. He has been let down and has 45 days of professional training so far under his belt. He shows a ton of promise as a hunter/jumper/eq horse and I believe that is what he would like to do with his life. He has a lovely soft mouth and has been a gentleman since bringing him home. He has excellent ground manners and is easy to deal with on the ground. He has no vices and is good to ride. No prep needed even after a few days off. Great in turn out and just an easy all around dude. He would be perfect for a Jr or AA in a program to bring along. He has a lead change and has just started popping fences. 15k
Frosty
Frosty is a 7yr old TB mare, exceptional sport lines- she is by Frosted. Frosty is a very sweet and personable mare. She is wonderful on the ground, easy to handle, cross ties in the barn for the farrier and for tacking/bathing. Undersaddle she is safe, yet a forward ride in the arena. Hacking you can not ride her for a month, hop on and hit the trail. No lunging needed. This is a mare with serious jumping potential and I could see her being very successful as a 1.10m or 1.20m jumper. She would also accel in eventing. While she is forward she is very safe and has a very soft mouth. This would be the perfect horse for someone like a competent AA or a Junior wanting to moving up the levels. She is great on and off property and hauls well. She has been brought along with her future in mind. Located in Bluemont, VA asking 25k
