PVPH had a great time at Show Me The Money 🤠🦄🌈 thank you Cathy Hanson, Heidi Horse Shows and Larry Gimple for a fun filled show week. It was a HUGE horse show-so grateful to see such big numbers in California🥰As usual my lack of show photos persists😂

I am so pleased to congratulate 2 new comers to the show pen with their first time competing in the W/T ranch rail, ranch trail and ranch riding events:

What a wonderful way to start the New Year! Thank you PCQHA, it’s board members, all the general members, my clients, their wonderful horses🦄, dear friends and my family 🥰for joining me in this celebration and recognition at the Los Alamitos Racetrack last night. It’s hard to see in our picture but I am wearing a PCQHA belt buckle that I won in 1984 when I was 19 years old😊I’m proud to have been a member of this organization for over 40 years🤠🦄Thank you for the honor 🩵🌈🩵

Please sign this petition to support our Ag students in California!

ＵＣ Ｄａｖｉｓ Ｅｑｕｅｓｔｒｉａｎ Ｔｅａｍ Ｐｅｔｉｔｉｏｎｓ ｆｏｒ Ｒｅｉｎｓｔａｔｅｍｅｎｔ ｏｆ Ｄ１ Ｔｅａｍ

UC Davis has announced big changes to their sport sponsorship team for 2026-2027, and the changes blindsided the equestrian team and all involved.

Ada Hirschfeld, a rider on the UC Davis Equestrian Team, says, "This decision doesn’t just affect our team, it impacts the entire horse industry by limiting pathways for riders, trainers, vets, and professionals coming up through collegiate programs. We’ve created a petition in hopes of saving it."
