Yesterday was Odie’s third birthday! He’s had a grandpa soul from birth, so it feels like he’s been with me much longer. He’s never met a human he didn’t like (read: he must breathe down your neck and “assist” with any tasks). Even as a c**t, his calm, gentle nature made it clear he was destined for gelding-hood.

Odie has been a wonderful big brother to Tonalli (and later to Skip, who’s now living in Oregon with his human mom!). From the start, he’s been a patient teacher and steady leader, offering quiet confidence to both younger and older horses when they’re unsure.

I think Odie will be a multitalented boy with a bright future in the jumping disciplines. I can’t wait to see where he decides to take us.💙

Happy second birthday to my only filly homebred, Tonalli.🩷 It feels like just yesterday this perfect little girl arrived. Watching her grow has been such a joy, she meets every new experience with a mix of sharp wit and quiet bravery. It certainly doesn’t hurt that I think she’s absolutely gorgeous. I’ve loved watching her become herself, and I can’t wait for the day I see the world from between her ears.🔥

Congratulations to Leslie on the purchase of Wyatt! With everything finalized, this sweet and steady gelding is heading to the Boston area to enjoy life as a New Englander.

05/06/2025

💥SOLD💥

Wyatt is an 8 YO, 15.2 hh chestnut gelding and is ¼ Clydesdale, ½ Quarter Horse, and ¼ Thoroughbred. This blend gives him a ground-covering trot, a balanced hind end, a quiet mind, and an honest work ethic.

He was purchased directly from his breeder after growing up in the mountains of northeastern Arizona. His early life was spent navigating rugged terrain, rocky hills, dense brush, and regular encounters with wildlife — a true foundation in surefootedness and grit.

Since arriving here, Wyatt has hunted third flight and completed two 8-mile paper chases — all in a loose ring snaffle. He’s a soldier: no jigging, no melting down, no drama. He’s focused, attentive, and game for anything. Naturally adjustable, forward but not hot, and responsive to seat and voice.

What sets him apart? His personality. Wyatt craves connection. He loves attention, lives for cuddles and nose kisses, and wants to be someone’s partner. He’s happy to work or take a few days off without issue.

He’ll hop over logs and small natural obstacles, but he’s not a jumper. He lacks the scope and desire for courses or big fences.

Ideal roles for Wyatt:
🔹 Foxhunter
🔹 Endurance or paper chase horse
🔹 Low-level dressage partner
🔹 Trail or obstacle course mount
🔹 First horse, husband horse, or kid’s ride
🔹 Solid all-arounder

He’s kind, rideable, and eager to please. Despite his height, he’s built like a tank and takes up leg well — a great option even for taller riders.

He does not need:
🚫 Lunging before rides
🚫 Shoes
🚫 To be in a training program

Up to date on teeth, feet, vaccines, and Coggins. Barefoot with excellent hooves. No maintenance required. Clean hock and front foot X-rays on file. PPE welcome at buyer’s expense.

We had a grand time showing in the Hunt Teams class on Saturday night at The Devon Horse Show! It was a competitive turnout this year, and so fun watching all the teams go. This year, it was won by a team of all side saddle ladies, it was well deserved with the added layer of difficulty they showcased in an already impressive performance!

We had fun showing both horses this weekend at Derby at the Vineyard!

Today was Metro’s turn, he started off strong, taking the win in his jumper derby class (par for the course). Then we made a quick wardrobe change and headed back for the hunter derby. Metro was offended by the sudden shift in expectations, but he pulled it together to snag a third place finish, plus two fifths in the high hunter flat classes. Not bad for a horse with opinions.😂 I am hoping to get some official shots from the show photographer.📸

Yesterday was Grace and Bailey’s go arounds! I couldn’t be prouder of how far these two have come in just a year!🤩 Grace bought Bailey from me exactly one year ago, another matchmaking success, a newly turned three year old with minimal steering. Yesterday, Bailey, a fresh four year old, handled an incredibly busy warm-up with vendors on the perimeter and a show ring full of decorations and fill with ever expanding confidence.

This show was Bailey’s first one, making the accomplishment even greater. Watching the trust that has grown between Grace and Bailey, and the trust they place in me, has been incredibly rewarding. They make such a special team, and it’s a joy to see them face new challenges together and shine.💕

Don’t mind me 😴 at the wheel. Metro was the cutest overgrown pony yesterday in his spring colors.💐

I have been focusing on rebuilding Metro’s fitness after a more relaxed schedule while we waited on some routine maintenance with the vet.🧑‍🔧
He’s feeling fantastic now, and I am working on legging him back up to his upper-level frame and carriage, and getting back to jumping full courses now that we’re enjoying time outside again. I am excited to focus on the fun stuff with this boy as the nice weather returns!☀️

Incoming Odie and Tonalli horse show dump 🌟

I am SO proud of these two babies! Yesterday, Odie did his first under saddle competition for his fourth ride ever and first ride in a couple months.😂 This was Tonalli’s first show as she’s only done two KWPN Keurings prior to this.

Odie placed:
🥈 in the Open Sport Horse Undersaddle - Walk/ Trot
🥉 in the Open Walk/ Trot with pattern
6th in the Open Walk/ Trot - Green Horse
🥇 in the Open Halter Handling - Novice Horse or Handler (out of 13! We tied for first with a 90%, but we had higher horse and handler marks to clinch the win)
🏆Division Champion/ High Score for Open Halter Handling (out of 25 horses!)

Tonalli placed:
🥇 in the Open Conformation 3 YO & under
🥇 in the Open Halter Handling - Horses 5 YO & Under (with an 86%!)

Odie really stepped into his role as a riding show horse this weekend. He settled into the competition environment so quickly, and I could tell he loved having his barn mates there for moral support. I don’t think he would have been quite as quiet if he hadn’t been able to look around the ring and recognize some familiar faces. I’m so grateful we were able to tag along to this show with the group — it made a huge difference for him.
Odie got a crash course in backing under saddle and sitting trot so we could perform the riding patterns. I think one of the reasons he enjoyed himself so much was because he got to spend the day surrounded by the humans he knows best — and Wish, the pony. He truly loves spending time with people.
For the halter handling classes, which were similar to an in-hand trail class, I entered Odie almost as an afterthought. I figured it would be further good exposure to obstacles in a new place. We squeezed in our round just minutes before his last two riding classes, and I wasn’t expecting much from it, but Odie went in and threw down an incredible run. When I asked for a 360° haunch turn (something I’ve never even practiced with him) he planted his right hind and dug a hole, textbook style.😳

Tonalli was also incredible at her first show. Her halter class was the very first class of the day, and after that, she had to sit on the trailer for several hours by herself while the other horses were being ridden. Even as a foal, she’s always been independent, so she didn’t bat an eye at being alone. I was especially grateful that neither baby made a peep or fuss when I swapped them at the trailer, it made everything run so smoothly.
Unlike Odie, Tonalli hasn’t been taken on field trips for exposure, so I was pleasantly surprised when she so willingly stepped onto the tarp during her halter handling classes. Especially considering we had to wait through a passing storm before her patterns — the tarp was extra looky, covered in reflective puddles and wet sand — and she still handled it like a perfect princess.

Both of these young horses absolutely blew me away yesterday with their total trust in me. I don’t go out of my way to work them because I believe young horses should have a childhood. I just try to get to their barn when I can, spending quality time loving on them and giving them kisses. The way they repaid me yesterday with their trust and try reassures me that what I’m giving them is enough.🥹

A big thank you to Dori Truman, Eva Reatiga, Gricelda Diaz, Anya, Jules, and Ximena for all your help with me juggling showing both babies! It really does take a village.🦄

How ChatGPT interprets Metro:

▫️Confident, stylish, and elegant, but not loud
▫️Athletic and graceful, like a track star who can also slay at a dance floor
▫️Warm and expressive, with a kind but grounded energy
▫️Tall-ish but not towering - more presence than height
▫️With a look that hints at subtle sophistication and a touch of flair

I would concur and say it’s pretty on point!

I signed the munchkins up for a show this weekend! It’ll be Tonalli’s first competition, she’s only participated in the .na Keurings so far. She’ll be doing one halter class and two in-hand trail classes. As for Odie, the plan is for him to try his first under saddle classes, but I’ll be letting him take the lead on what he’s ready for. All week I’ll be daydreaming of him becoming the “Open Walk Champion.”🏆🤣

I didn’t show Odie at all last year, just getting settled in Pennsylvania and hunting for outings that felt both affordable and young-horse-friendly. We’re heading out with a great crew from the babies’ lesson barn, and I love how everyone’s quick to lend a hand and cheer each other on. I’m grateful that both babies get to go on a big kid field trip as part of their journey toward the bigger goals I have for them.🥰

A good day for a paper chase!📰🏇🏼 We had beautiful, clear weather for 8 miles of riding. It was only a few minutes up the road from our barn, and another great outing for Wyatt and Bailey!

Originally, a paper chase was a game or race where riders would follow a trail of paper scraps (like torn-up newspaper), which were dropped along a route by a “fox” or lead rider — mimicking the idea of tracking a quarry.🦊
