Currently located in Waterloo/Valley, NE.....with over 30 years of breeding/training/showing experience, Triple C M

iniatures (formerly Triple C Pinto Horses, and Double U Farm Quarter Horses) is not new to the world of horses; but somewhat new to the world of Miniatures. After more than 3-years rest from the Pinto Show Ring altogether, and the very sad loss of our first double-registered Paint/Pinto Mare who came to us in November 2009 and started it all over for us, we have rejoined the show rings as a family in 2016 with our MINIATURE sized horses & pintos! We have grown an amazing little herd of amazing little horses to date, with the help of the amazing Laura Linhart whom most of our stock came from! Stefanie's very first horse show debut was at the NE State Fair with a miniature mare by the name of Bitsy Betsy back in the mid-1980's......bred and owned by the legendary Melvin Whitmaack. Our herd of minis today, consists of pedigrees that go straight back to Melvin's farm and LEGENDARY breeding program. Our beautiful stallion Stormy (a.k.a. Shadow Lake Stormy, AMHR/AMHA/PtHA) has a disposition and confirmation true to his foundation pedigree which includes breed legends such as Melody's Gold Boy, Roan Ranger, Whitmaacks Mickey Mouse and Johnstons Gold Boy. Right now we are a small operation, and hope to stay that way in an effort to enjoy our horses continually. Watch for us this year on the 2016 NPtHA Show Circuit, the Nebraska AMHA & AMHR SHow Circuit and at other local, small and open shows with our little-bitty horses who have giant hearts! We look forward to horsin' around with you.............

If you know, you know!! 😎
“The Farmers Lounge” is coming along nicely… and is just about finished! ❤️ Like the rest of the farm, it’s not fancy (doesn’t need to be!), but it’s functional AND farm cozy. 🏞️ A comfortable place for lesson parents & little ones to cool off while their young students learn, that also functions as a shabby-chic farm store (open by appt only)…. offering my books, my eggs & butcher birds, my farm-fresh jams-jellies-salsas-breads, and more! ✨ So exciting! Will be putting in the finishing touches over the next couple of days, and I can hardly wait to share it with my clients and customers!! 🐴 TripleCPintos.com

Her birth was immediately followed by a tragic weekend, so she hasn’t been fairly introduced yet…..
CCC VICKIS PILLOW FIGHT ON ICE decided to finally join the other foals in the barn, and made her entrance into the world at approximately 1:58am on May 21st! 🥰 “Vicki” is a gorgeous, loud tobi filly who is little bitty but already has huge personality. She also has her daddy’s trademark STAR in the middle of her forehead…. 3/3 this year with Expo stars!! Haha 🤣 This is our final foal of the 2026 season and we couldn’t be more pleased with her! 🏆

Vicki is named after my dear old friend Vicki Villafuerte, who passed away unexpectedly last November. I had bought this mare from Vicki the prior year (2024) in November and she was almost equally as excited to see the coming baby, as I was. Sadly, Vicki never got the chance to see the foal, but I have a feeling she’s looking down on the little filly as I type this. 😇 You may be gone, but will never be forgotten! ❤️

Stormy was laid to rest last night, in a bright and sunny spot by the tree grove where I can visit her daily. ❤️ I’m hoping to find a lovely statue or plaque to place there eventually. Again, I want to thank EVERYONE who to time out of their busy lives to pray for my little sweetheart—your love has been SO appreciated.

For those who have felt the need to leave NEGATIVE comments on my previous posts regarding Stormy…. I pray that YOU never have to go through anything like this. 💔

She was too good for this world. 💔 My sweet little princess has crossed the rainbow bridge. 😭 I want to thank everyone for their prayers. It’s going to be a tough couple of days around here. Somehow, in nearly forty years of breeding horses, I have NEVER lost a newborn foal. I have been SO blessed, and I know that.

Want to wish my AMAZING son a Happy 18th Birthday today, also. He is finding out the hard way, on the first morning of “adulthood”, how much adulting sucks. I am so sorry your birthday has started out this way. You are simply THE BEST SON a mother could ask for, and I appreciate all of your help this morning. 😘
