Breeding Pintos for Performance and Pleasure horses. Hi,

I am Michelle Sefton. I am a private and Pony Club Coach.

I have been involved in horses for 33 years now. I went through pony club to conplete B Certificate, unfortunately my age stopped me from finishing my A and H Certificates. I have competed CNC80 through to 1* Eventing, Show Jumping to 1.25m, Dressage to Level 3 have schooled to Level 4. I have vast experience in a range of disciplines and levels. I have competed internationally in Canada and the USA, as part of a New Zealand development squad for NZMGA, who I am a founding member of. While overseas, I not only competed in games but also eventing, shows and equitation.(if you would like more information please message). I have competed successfully at HOY and won titles. I am a breeder of Pintos for performance and pleasure with top bloodlines that go back to Ace Of Diamonds and Galaxy Pourewa. I also train horses from foals, unhandled horses, right through to any age and problem solve any problems. The Clinics I run are:
Equine First Aid, Equine Nutrition , Turn Out (for all English riding events), What to look for when buying a horse and Introduction To Breeding. I also offer:
Nutrition Consults
Float training
Bowen Therapy for Horses, Dogs and People
Groundwork Lessons
Ridden Lessons to a variety of levels of rider and horse. I use natural horsemanship based on positive pressure release system using methods from Andrew McLean ESI and Steve Brady. Each horse is different and has different ways of learning so I work with them. I am a Qualified Veterinary Technician, also with studies and training in Equine Nutririon. I have practiced for 15 years in Equine Clinics, small animal and large animal clinics. I am happy to help with any level of rider and horse and with anything either may need and want to achieve. I also offer services for rehabilitation and wound care and management. You could say I do a bit of everything. I am here to help horses and their riders/handlers/owners in anyway I can for best positive outcomes for all. I am the proud owner of Celtic Stud NZ and also very proudly sponsored by Dynavyte NZ

This is an amazing product for protecting joints and helping all joints. My team are all on this and it makes a huge difference to help keep the joints healthy and mobile.

Luronica is an hyaluronic acid oral supplement which may assist in maintaining normal healthy cartilage and with lubrication of the joints. It may be particularly useful in supporting high motion joints in equine athletes. Available in 1 Litre and 4.5 Litre bottles.

QUICK TIP TUESDAY | Did You Know Extruded Feeds Can Double as Treats? 💛

Don’t have a treat handy while doing your horse’s daily stretching exercises? No problem! Did you know you can use Mitavite extruded feed nuggets as a convenient and affordable alternative to traditional horse treats?

Why incorporate stretches into your horse’s routine?

“Carrot stretches”, also known as dynamic mobilisation exercises, can offer several benefits when performed correctly, including:

• Improving flexibility and range of motion.

• Encouraging core muscle activation and strength.

• Supporting mobility and muscle function.

• Complementing rehabilitation and recovery programs.

Wow where have the last 3 weeks gone!!

On Saturday Celtic Darach, aka Dara, was 3 weeks old. She has grown a really soft gentle, curious personality. Celtic Mo Chridhe, aka Lily, has relaxed a lot with Dara now. She may be on the otherside of the paddock, but Lily still keeps a watchful eye and listens while eating. Dara's courage is showing through with how far she wanders or plays away from Lily, even sleeping, Lily can be over the otherside of the paddock while Dara plays dead having a good REM and growing sleep.

Dara still has to spread her front legs while eating grass, she'll grow into those legs in time, but it looks so cute!!

Dara is confident, and made no fuss with picking up all four feet, which I do daily. She is now haltered, though she got annoyed with me being fussy over how it fitted, as she wanted scratches instead! So I waited till feeding time and then I could adjust it slightly, while she stole bits of Lily’s feed.

I know I am bias, however, Lily and Cosmo do throw beautiful well tempered offspring, I couldn't ask for better.

Thank you to my sponsors Dynavyte NZ Dynavyte keep Lily and Dara in good health from the inside out.


Lily is very happy with Hygain Grotorque which gives her all the nutrients for herself and Dara.

Absolutely love all my Equine Eye cameras. they are saving grace, especially foaling this season. I knew exactly when I had to get home for Celtic Mo Chridhe aka Lily, foaling and help her. I can then keep an eye on her and her and her foal no matter where they are! with Guy Fawkes and the wicked thunderstorms we have had, I have been able to keep an eye on all horses, day or night, raining, I can still see them. I can even watch them sleep.🥰

I wouldn't be without these cameras, and I highly recommend all of Equine Eye range of cameras, to watch my horses in the paddock from anywhere and during transport.😊❤️🐎🍀
