Mak stands well to mount from the ground or a mounting block and moves off quietly. He is started in dressage, with a good solid walk-trot-canter on either lead. He is currently working on leg yields and shoulder-in. Mak jogs nice and slow, but he will also show off an impressive Friesian trot when pushed. He rides English, Western, ba****ck, or double, on a loose rein or on the bit and collects up nicely. He is mostly worked in a snaffle, but he also does well in a curb bit. Mak has been bounced over low jumps and shows lots of potential.
Mak has the best barn manners, he'll stand to be brushed, bathed, and played with. He loads and hauls well and gets along with other horses. The children love leading him around and he absolutely does not mind all their antics around him.
On trails Mak is calm and surefooted, he's been on a trail ride with over 100 other horses, while being ridden by a completely new rider. He has also joined our family on our 4 day campouts at Salt Fork State Park, as well as took part in youth camps. He stood well tied at the highline overnight, and handles new things with a very calm willing attitude. Creeks and lakes are no issue, and he doesn't freak out about unruly colts around him.
He is good on the obstacle course, and doesn't mind tarps, noodles, the pedestal, or the bridge.

Dreamy is a 3 year old black Friesian cross mare. Standing at 14.3 hands tall she is a pleasure to work with under any type of tack. Dreamy can walk, trot, and canter on a circle and has both of her leads on a canter. She has a soft mouth and a willing to please attitude. She is very athletic and would do great in a variety of disciplines. We have ridden her under a dressage saddle, and she responds well to leg and hand pressure.
Dreamy is our go to horse when we go trail riding with our young children. She does great with a buddy or child's seat behind a regular saddle. We have had her on overnight camping trips with other horses and she ties well on a high line. All types of trail terrain from mud, creeks, and ravines are easily handled by her.
Dreamy would make a great horse for a child and has the ability to go in any direction you would please.
She is also trained to drive and is traffic safe in harness or under saddle. We have driven her on our State Rd and to town through stop lights. She has seen all types of things from big semi's to motorcycles and cars with no problems.
We welcome you to contact us and will gladly answer any questions you may have. Visitors are welcome to come see and try her also. Located on Sugarcreek, Ohio

We had a great weekend at the Ashland Haflinger and Crossbred Sale! All of our horses found new homes, Winnie in Virginia, Reese's in North Carolina, and Lion and Pearl will be staying in Ohio.
We would like to thank the entire auction staff and Prime Choice Auctions for putting on a great sale, as well as our buyers and bidders.
