Show season is here, and we're so excited to get back in the ring! We couldn't do it without the support of amazing sponsors like Hayes Hat Company.

Drew has outfitted our whole barn with everything from beautiful hats for all-around to durable straw hats that last through the toughest outdoor shows. If you see him set up at a show, make sure to stop by and check out his amazing selection!

At SS Performance Horses, we're lucky every day! ๐Ÿ€

We get to do what we love with clients who love it just as much, and horses who make it all worthwhile.

What are you feeling lucky for this St. Patrick's Day?

๐Ÿฅณ Happy Birthday Oliver!!

My right hand manโ€ฆ literally. You are the glue that holds this barn together and I could not do it without you. Everyone at SSPH is so grateful to get to celebrate another birthday with you, for all you do for us and our horses. We hope you have a day filled with love and laughter.

If you see him around the barn today, donโ€™t forget to wish him a big HBD!! ๐ŸŽ‚

Want to improve your horsemanship scores and ride more effectively? Start with a solid foundation:

๐‘๐ž๐ข๐ง ๐‡๐š๐ง๐: Hold your rein hand softly bent at the elbow, with your wrist straight, creating a straight line from your elbow to the horse's mouth.

Proper position enhances communication and performance! โœจ

The Trail class is a fan favorite for a reason!

It's a fun and challenging event where horses navigate an obstacle course designed to mimic real-life trail riding situations. Think opening and closing gates, stepping over logs, and backing up with precision.

It's all about showcasing your horse's graceful gaits and willingness to tackle new challenges.

This class is a popular choice for riders who want to showcase their horse's versatility and build a stronger partnership with their horse. But most of all, Trail is about having fun!

At SS Performance Horses, we incorporate Trail training into our program, whether you're aiming for an all-around title or just want a well-rounded horse that's ready for anything.

Ready to hit the show pen?
