We are so thankful she continues to come share her knowledge with us and help us build stronger partnerships with our horses.

We have had the privilege  to work with Barb a lot and it’s an opportunity  you dont want to miss. Barb is a phenomenal teacher and can help you with any struggles you and your horse have, help you gain mutual respect, or just take your horsemanship to the next level. She will meet you and your horse where you are at.

Are you getting trained with your horse?
So often, we hear, “they were good at first” or “their training didn’t hold up.” This can be hard to hear, but it takes a trainer to maintain training. That is why at McCall horsemanship we like to train you with your horse. While it’s unrealistic for everyone to become a professional, it’s always possible to improve.

Fortunately there are a few routes to take.
keep your horse in training.
Become more educated so that you can maintain the training- this is harder and a lot more time consuming than it may seem.
Work with horses that have been in training for a really long time.

No matter which option you choose, you will have to overcome some challenges, but it will at the very least encourage you to build a better relationship with your horse.

This has been a hard decision to make but Ivy is for sale to the perfect home. She has been on my back burner for too long and it’s not fair to her because she loves to come out so much.

Ivy is a 2017, quarter horse, mare, 16.1 hh

Ivy does require maintenance; Hock Injections, SI injections and Chiro to keep her riding sound walk trott lope. Ivy sat for 2 years and had her baby. She makes an amazing mom! Takes care of her baby but is not over protective. Her baby is a blue roan 2023 foal. Under saddle Ivy is little behind due to time off and figuring out her health issues. But as long as you stay up to date on her maintenance she is good to go. She will start to hop in her lope if she is due for SI injections. Her body cannot hold up for hard work but will be perfect for someone wanting to love on her, go on trail and casually ride in the arena.

Selling as a light riding horse, broodmare or liberty horse.  Ivy stands for vet and farrier. Needs an advanced rider to keep her tuned up. Could be the perfect mom and daughter horse. Ivy can get pushy and will match people’s energy. She doesn’t do well being yanked around or manhandled. She loves kiddos and will take care of them always. At the therapeutic riding program she is my choice of horse for low functioning students to handle on the ground.

She lives in a herd and is in the middle of pecking order.

She is priced accordingly but just because she’s cheap does not mean you will be saving money*
